To put it another way, when I click a button in an HTML form, which "main" class kick starts the chain of processing that eventually leads to my action class being executed?
The "entry point" for Struts is in the doPost (or doGet) method of org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet. (Prior to that, your Servlet container did some work that you probably aren't interested in.) After ActionServlet, the [Struts 1.2.7] RequestProcessor will figure out which of your Actions it should call. The best way to see what really happens is to watch it in a debugger. I use JSwat, and have some instructions on how to get it working with Tomcat here: http://wiki.wsmoak.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?TomcatDebug Having set a breakpoint at the first line of the 'execute' method in my own action class, the stack shows: 1. ChooseProfileAction.execute() 2. RequestProcessor.processActionPerform() 3. RequestProcessor.process() 4. ActionServlet.process() 5. ActionServlet.doGet() 6. HttpServlet.service() ... all the way back to ... 47.
