Hi everyone, I'm new to Struts 2 (and Struts in general, for that matter). I've got the Struts 2 framework up and running and I'm trying to figure out how to get it to support a use case for our new application. We'd like to have a set of web services that look like this:
http://www.domain.com/struts2/queryName.xml?param1=foo http://www.domain.com/struts2/queryName.json?param1=foo http://www.domain.com/struts2/queryName.html?param1=foo http://www.domain.com/struts2/queryName.rss?param1=foo As you can see, the query and its parameters won't change, but we'd like to alter the result type based on the requested URL file type. How can I best achieve this in Struts 2? I know that I can do some Apache rewriting to map these to the correct Actions, but I'd much rather do it in the struts-config.xml file if I can, that way I can just maintain everything from one location. Also, does anyone have any suggestions for best practices on how to handle different result types? I'd like to reuse some of the same basic framework pieces to handle all Rss, JSON, etc requests so that when I want to add a new query to the web service, it's just a matter of adding another Action to support it, and all of the result types are automatically inherited. Thanks in advance for your help! Kevin Conroy
