Hello,

How can I red my application name and the actions' extension?

For example: http://localhost:8080/scheduler-admintool-1.0/Workspace.do

I'd need a code to get "scheduler-admintool-1.0" and "do" from the context.

The first part ("scheduler-admintool-1.0") should be your context root. As Wes said, getContextPath() should give you that. Or at least something you can parse for what you need.

The second item ("do") is defined in web.xml when you specify the url-pattern of the filter mapping for the S2 filter.

I don't know how to retrieve filter-mapping configuration data (defined in web.xml) from within a servlet (or an Action, Interceptor, etc). As far as I know, it can't be done easily (without doing something like finding and parsing web.xml by hand).

If you're willing to dig a bit, the S2 (and Xwork source code) imply that this information is also available in the S2 configuration data. Here's the configuration key that will lookup the "extensions" that Struts 2 knows about...

  StrutsConstants.STRUTS_ACTION_EXTENSION

Your next questions will be:

"how do I get the central Struts 2 Configuration object?"
"how do I lookup a configuration value from this object using the key?"

I don't have answers for those but maybe somebody else here can help with that.

I vaguely recall that I've looked up config data on-the-fly (from within an Action) in WebWork at some distant point in the past. I think it's possible just can't remember how it got done.

P.S.  Two things to be careful of:

1) The "extensions" that get returned from the Configuration object are a comma separated list. Often its just one extension but sometimes it's more than one. So handle that case.

2) I have no clue how Struts 2 gather the "extensions" for its configuration. I would think it would have to ensure they were the same as the url-pattern defined for the filter in web.xml.

But there's some suspicious hardcoding of ".action" in the source code that makes me a little, well, suspicious. So just be sure to double-check that the extension data you manage to get back from Configuration is properly slaved to the web.xml Struts filter's url-pattern.
