Hi all,
This question concerns the Convention Plugin, specifically in regards to
Action Chaining.
I am using Struts 2.1.6
I have the following package structure.
com.company.web.actions.administrators.GetAction
(/administrators/get)
com.company.web.actions.administrators.SaveAction
(/administrators/save)
After SaveAction.execute(), I wanted to use action chaining and forward
to GetAction.execute().
I was able to get this to work via annotations in my SaveAction class. The
execute() method returns ActionSupport.SUCCESS.
@Results({
@Result(name=ActionSupport.*SUCCESS*, type="chain", location="get")
})
However, it seems through the examples, that annotations may not be required
for simple action chaining.
Can we return an action name, effectively chainining the actions together?
I had attempted returning "get" in my SaveAction.execute(), thinking that it
would action chain GetAction.
The result was forwarded to my /WEB-INF/content/administrators/get.jsp, but
never actually ran GetAction.execute() .
Any idea as to what my SaveAction.execute() method should return to
accomplish simple action chaining without the annotation above?
Thank you in advance.
