Hi Dave -
Thanks for the quick reply!
Well, I guess my initial thought was, why not find a way to call the form
bean's validate(mapping, request) method. This would generate a list of action
errors for me that didn't fit the rules defined in validator.xml; I could
append any complicated rules I've found that I had violated, and return the
whole world to either my DispatchAction who could set and return, or to my
other process who could be made to understand an ActionError and act
appropriately.
But to do that, my business layer needs to have a mapping and request method.
If I'm accessing the business layer from outside of the web environment, that
seems pretty hacky to create and populate a mapping and servlet request.
Maybe I'm gonig about this all wrong / missing something big? (sorry)

What Struts-specific objects do you think you'd need to expose?
