I know that you can return custom objects using struts2 by specifying a declaration in your struts.xml file. I've done that, gotten that to work. What I want to do is move away from that, and accomplish the same thing via annotations. If I have an action that is going to return a custom result type I would like to be able to do it. ...
Hey Everyone, This one has me really stumped. I'm developing a web app for tomcat 6 and using struts2. I have an action that gets some variables from the ActionContext.

Time for yet another stupid question, adding to a long line of them. I'm a newbie with Struts 2, having spent years using old 1.X. Struts 2 actions can be roughly equivalent to Struts 1 DispatchActions, simply by adding methods (and defining them in struts.xml). So, suppose I have this method: public String create() throws Exception {...

Hi All, I have an Action class with CRUD actions inside and I have overridden the validate() method given by the ActionSupport class. The question is: how can I fire the validation only for the update and create actions? One possible solution is to move create & update on a brand new Action class, but I'd like to know if there's anot...
Is it possible to restrict access to certain URLs in Struts 2? I already have it so you can't access jsp's directly, but you can access them indirectly. For example if I have a jsp "blah.jsp" I can access it by typing "/blah" and if I don't have an Action called Blah.java, it will automatically go to the result, blah.jsp. Most of the ...

What's the difference, really, between filters and interceptors? I realize that interceptors fire before and after an action, recursively, and filters can be configured to fire on actions and on certain url patterns. But how do you know when to use each one?
