Here is what I am trying to achieve:
http://myserver/Login.do --> (maps to) LoginAction
http://myserver/Logout.do --> (maps to) LogoutAction
http://myserver/user/blahblah --> UserPageAction (notice that there is
no .do in this case. blahblah can be replaced by anything at runtime)
http://myserver/pages/blahblah.jsp --> not handled by ActionServlet (obviously)
I am trying various combinations in web.xml and struts-config.xml
(including configuring /user as a module) but havent yet found a
decent solution.
Any thoughts?
I wrote a request processor that took URLS of the form
http://myserver/admin/foo/bar and sometimes
http://myserver/admin/foo/bar/baz
and did the appropriate things (it was for the table maintainence of a
website; "foo" was the name of the table, "bar" was the command (edit,
delete, create, etc.) and "baz" was the key used to look up the item
(when necessary).
I used two wildcard action mappings /admin/* and /admin/*/* (I think,
this was awhile ago) then inside the action performed the expected
things (deciding what page to show based on the table name, etc.) I also
subclassed the request processor to get the appropriate ActionForm for
the Action.
It's pretty un-Strutslike, but I needed the URLs to look like that fo
various non-technical reasons (and they're prettier), and I wanted to
write the smallest amount of code possible.
Using a wildcard mapping might be enough to do what you need it to, but
you can do a fair amount more with only marginally more work.
