Hi,
I believe supporting a getSession() call is useful in the Action class.
let me walk you through a situation:
public class MyAppBaseAction extends DispatchAction
{
//some helper functions
isAuthorized( arguments )
{
}
}
public class MyAction1 extends MyAppBaseAction
{
create(....)
{
isAuthorized(...)
//restOfCode....
}
}
Now in the above scenario... isAuthorized necessarily needs to be sent a
request object as one of the parameters from which it can extract the
session and then extract the user object from the session. This is not a
great pain, but I think the code would look cleaner if I dont have to pass
the request/session object around. If I had a getSession function support
from the struts action class, then isAuthorized doesnt need to have an
argument like Session or Request.
What do you think?
