How to programatically get the nested components from a Struts2 tag?

Question

How can i get all the nested tag elements from a struts2 tag? for instance text and checkbox tags from form tag?:

<s:form>
 <s:text .../>
 <s:checkbox .../
<s:form>

I know that form is a tag defined in strust-tags.tld and it extends the org.apache.struts2.views.jsp.ui.FormTag, but how does it goes behind the scene to get the nested tags ?

Answer 1

use getComponentStack() method from the org.apache.struts2.components.Component class.
