Never mind, I think I figured out! You can specify struts-config.xml etc in the
web.xml itself. And ANT war task allows to specify required web.xml. Guess I am
good to go now...

Subject: Creating tools from existing application
We have this huge application and we have identified that we can isolate some
of its functionality and build tools from it. Now - I need to come up with
some prototype in a week's time or so. I have identified core classes, actions
etc here - some of the things that I am trying to figure out here are -
(1) How can I have multiple struts-cofig.xml in WEB-INF (is it even possible,
using different names?) and include appropriate struts-cofig.xml in the
deployable war such that my application will be in app.war and tools would be
in tools.war and they both would use different struts-config.xml file. I can
see that "war" task of ant allows using differnt web.xml but not differnt
struts-config.xml. How can it be done?
(2) We use Velocity with struts, so another thing I am trying to figure out is
how to use different layout for these two different wars?
(3) What other approach I can use in this case? We do not want to duplicate
source code, any enhancement to main application must be propagated to tools
if tools include those features. Thus, we are keen on using the *same* source
code, but need to create two different wars from it where tools.war would be
subset of app.war. How do I achieve this?
Any pointers, help would be highly appreciated. I am already digging into
relevant docs to figure out things here.
TIA,
- Manish
