Action has some convenience methods for saving errors - you can do something
like the following in your Action's execute method:
if (<insert-condition-here>) {
ActionMessages errors = new ActionMessages();
errors.add("myProperty",
new ActionMessage("myProperty.error"));
saveErrors(request, errors);
return mapping.getInputForward();
}
This will work with the latest version of Struts - it may vary depending on
what verison you're using.
