I want to define resettable properties in struts-config.xml file (or somewhere else, I don't care where), for example: <form-bean name="LogonForm" type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm"> <form-property name="username" type="java.lang.String"/> <form-property name="password" type="java.lang.String" initial="" reset="true"/> </form-bean> And then to use defined LogonForm bean in FormDef to bind it to business class or DTO, kind of like in your example: <form-definition> <formset> <form name="LogonForm" beanType="com.my.dto.UserInfoBean"/> </formset> </form-definition> Here "name" attribute refers to the form bean that already defined in struts-config.xml. Or you create another attribute, whatever. If this is not feasible, would be great if you added support for resettable properties directly to FormDef. I was just thinking that combining and reusing is better than redefining.
