One other option that I've used with great success is to create a @LoginNotRequired annotation. Then, just checked for that annotation in your interceptor. I have done it where you can put the annotation on the class (which affects all action methods in the class) or just on the method (which only affects that particular action method). This is also nice because now your logic around whether or not users can access certain pages are actually with the code for the action, not in some interceptor method somewhere.
Some sample code: Object action = invocation.getAction(); Class actionClass = action.getClass(); if (actionClass.isAnnotationPresent(LoginNotRequired.class)) { // action class has @LoginNotRequired annotation, go ahead and let the user through return invocation.invoke(); } else if (actionClass.getMethod(invocation.getProxy().getMethod()).isAnnotationPresent(LoginNotRequired.class)) { // method has @LoginNotRequired annotation, go ahead and let the user through return invocation.invoke(); } Of course, this assumes you're using Java 5.
