WebWork finds its Actions from its properties file. If you are working from
the WAR file the place to look for this file is under WEB-INF/classes. In
this file there is a property name "webwork.action.packages" that is set to
"webwork.examples, webwork.action.standard". This property tells WebWork
were to look for the Actions. This allows you to reference Actions with the
prefix in mind. So, if you had an action called "ProjectList" in
webwork.examples, then you could reference it by just "ProjectList" or you
can specify it with absolute the package name
"webwork.examples.ProjectList".
So, if you started your own project, you would have a properties file
similar to the one provided but with a property setting similar to the
following: "webwork.action.packages=webwork.action.standard,com.foo.action".
See inline comments as well. Refer to the documentation for more details.
