After some googling; I'm looking at the Result interface.
Would it be proper for the action to set a property, and use this custom
Result to read that property from ValueStack and write it to (with XStream
for isntance) ServletActionContext.getResponse().getOutputStream() ?
So Results exist for doing this for XML and/or JSON? It seems like it would
be re-occurring situation, espectially with ajax?
I'm just getting into Struts2; I'm looking to see if I'm doing things as
they ought to be done. Best practices, etc.
