Hello,
We are developing here a fairly generic web tool, which for many of our projects
we just want to customize a little. We are using the convention
plugin, since I have
a little dislike of XML config files and want to keep them to a minimum.
Ideally I would like a way to just include the base project into my
classpath and when
I want to customize an action, just subclass it and implement either a
new method
for the action or overwrite some method in the original action to do
the customization.
Well, I tried this and sometimes the subclass is used as action,
sometimes the original,
and I can't really figure out why is that. I was expecting an error
message for re-using
the same action-name (actually a warning log entry).
-- from convention plugin ---
//check if an action with the same name exists on that package
(from XML config probably)
700 PackageConfig existingPkg =
configuration.getPackageConfig(pkgCfg.getName());
701 if (existingPkg != null) {
702 // there is a package already with that name, check action
703 ActionConfig existingActionConfig =
existingPkg.getActionConfigs().get(actionName);
704 if (existingActionConfig != null && LOG.isWarnEnabled())
705 LOG.warn("Duplicated action definition in package
[#0] with name [#1].", pkgCfg.getName(), actionName);
706 }
Can it be done? With reasonable modification of the struts framework maybe?
Thanks for reading,
Arne
