How to remove the file suffix/extension (.jsp and .action) using the Stripes Framework?

Question

I'm looking to use pretty / clean URL's in my web app.

I would like the following URL:

http://mydomain.com/myapp/calculator

.. to resolve to:

com.mydomain.myapp.action.CalculatorActionBean

I tried overwriting the NameBasedActionResolver with:

public class CustomActionResolver extends NameBasedActionResolver {
    public static final String DEFAULT_BINDING_SUFFIX = ".";

    @Override
    protected String getBindingSuffix() {
        return DEFAULT_BINDING_SUFFIX;
    }

    @Override
    protected List<String> getActionBeanSuffixes() {
        List<String> suffixes = new ArrayList<String>(super.getActionBeanSuffixes());
        suffixes.add(DEFAULT_BINDING_SUFFIX);
        return suffixes;
    }
}

And adding this to web.xml:

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>StripesDispatcher</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>*.</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Which gets me to:

http://mydomain.com/myapp/Calculator.

But:

1. A stray "." is still neither pretty nor clean.
2. The class name is still capitalized in the URL..?
3. That still leaves me with *.jsp..? Is it even possible to get rid of both .action and .jsp?

Answer 1

I think you are looking for the @URLBinding annotation. Look at @URLBinding on your Bean.

@UrlBinding("/calculator")

Try to use DMF http://stripes.sourceforge.net/docs/current/javadoc/net/sourceforge/stripes/controller/DynamicMappingFilter.html
