i've downloaded the demo apps for struts 2 v2.3.5 SNAPSHOT for today. i am trying to understand and study the rest struts2-rest-showcase webapp.
in the rest showcase, the OrdersController class has the following method. public String editNew() { model = new Order(); return "editNew"; } the user is taken to orders-editNew.jsp. on this page, the form posts to: action="%{#request.contextPath}/orders". the action to handle this form is as follows. public HttpHeaders create() { ordersService.save(model); addActionMessage("New order created successfully"); return new DefaultHttpHeaders("success").setLocationId(model.getId()); } at this point, the user is taken to orders-index.jsp. however, i do not want to take the user to this page. i instead want to write a JSON/XML message back saying something (just like the action message) to indicate success/failure. how do i do this? i imagine my client application posting data to: /orders/new and then receiving some JSON message: { "results" : "New order created successfully" } any help is appreciated. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
