Did you view my patch at all? If you haven't seen the patch, it will generate the action path when you reference an action in a forward. I am not taking away logical outcomes from an action - all I am doing is enhanching the logical outcomes so that they can automatically build the path to the actions they want to invoke. You would still forward to "success" (or whatever) and the "success" outcome could then build the URI to the correct action. I unfortunately have to press on with my disagreement. How can you co-develop Shale which relies on Spring but say, in so many words, that referencing is not good for Struts? Look also at WebWork which actually assigns aliases to their actions: <action name="LoginAction" alias="loginJSP">...</action> I really think there is *added value* to allow forwards to reference action idenifiers. There's nothing wrong with referencing other actions, and it *is* because URL's are fragile and sometimes complex. I don't know about you, but when I have a project with alot of redirecting, it becomes a big pain to maintain. With that said, I would like to find a compromise here. Perhaps "action:" is not an acceptable nomenclature to you, but what is? Is it another pattern or new attributes? Perhaps we can think outside my proposed solution to come up with one that we all like. Here's a new suggestion based on WebWork: <action alias="viewJournal" path="/journal/view" ...>...</action> <action alias="saveJournal" path="/journal/save" ...> <forward name="success" action-ref="viewJournal" /> </action> -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
