Hi folks, I'm having some issues with the ".action" suffix with respect to my integration testing. When we are in development, we typically run our application using the Maven Jetty plugin. It works great for us. In this environment, there are no ".action" suffixes on our action mappings. Howe

I think Grails is a nice tool, as long as what you want to do is within the confines of what it is designed to give you for free. After that, you'll be writing mounds of code. The project I'm working on now was originally started on the Grails platform. It was maybe 5 to 6 months down the ro

We don't really care whether Struts wants a ".action", or not. However, it's confusing when it seems to pick up the behavior based on the URL you used to enter into the system in the first place. Both URL's that I posted in the original note work, but the resulting behavior after the fact is
