bruce liu commented on WW-4146:
-------------------------------

i don't agree that it will reverse the whole architecture of Struts and let 
appliaction firewall to solve problem .

maybe i am simple, but here is my simple idea :

i add an field in class ParametersInterceptor:
private static ConcurrentHashMap<Class, Set<String>> properyCache = new 
ConcurrentHashMap<Class, Set<String>>();

in method setParameters, i will replace that loop like below :

Class actionClass = action.getClass();
Map<String, Expression> propertySet = properyCache.get(actionClass);
if(propertySet == null) {
        synchronized(actionClass) {
                propertySet = new HashSet<String>();
                // reflect actionClass and put properties into an set 
propertySet .
        }
}

for (Map.Entry<String, Object> entry : acceptableParameters.entrySet()) {
        String name = entry.getKey();
        Object value = entry.getValue();
        if (propertySet.contains(name)) {
        // maybe we should use other check strategy not contains method to deal 
with expression like user.address
                try {
                        newStack.setParameter(name, value);
                } catch (RuntimeException e) {
                        // some code do log here, i ignore it .
                }
        }
}

i think it may work and needn't to change much .

as long as there is a cache and use can control what will be cached , no matter 
what container you use, it will be a hidden trouble .

> tree = expressions.get(expression);

>       tree = Ognl.parseExpression(expression);
>       expressions.putIfAbsent(expression, tree);
> }
> {code}
> every parameter in the request cached in  field expressions  which is an 
> instances of ConcurrentMap<String, Object>, use parameterName as key. so i 
> construct huge different parameters that has different name (like  "abc[123], 
>  abc[124]" ), they all cached in  expressions, this cause outofmemory error, 
> and let map acted like a list .
