Thank you but it seems that this method in never called in struts 1.3 that I
am using. 

The default request processor class is ComposableRequestProcessor  which
happened to override the process method and it never calls
processPreproccessor. 

 

Thus the solution could be to override the process method of
ComposableRequestProcessor   and do the hook, but I looking for much cleaner
solution. 

 

I am dreaming of some hook that returns ActionForward that will be processed
before all my action classes.

 

Regards,

Hi youssef,

You can override RequestProcessor instead.

The required steps are

1) in struts-config.xml    

    <controller>
          <set-property property="processorClass" value="your controller
class which extends RequestProcessor"/>
    </controller>

2)  Create a Class wich extends RequestProcessor

     If you are using Tile Framework you have extend from
TilesRequestProcessor

3) Then override method processPreprocess() and do your logic in that method

 

like 

        public class ModReqProcessor extends TilesRequestProcessor {

             @Override
             protected boolean processPreprocess(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) {
                  HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);

                    // Check user object here 

                    // and return appropriate boolean variable

                    // if user object present return true

                    // otherwise forward to your error page using
RequestDispatcher.forward()

            }

        }

 

I hope this will help you

Subject: A Filter Action ! 

 

Folks;

            I want to set of action classes that should operate only when
user object in the session.  How can I add some filter action to forward to
some page (action forward) and bypass the main action classes.

Regards,
