In the struts-config.xml file, add an
element to this action. You can also put it in the
section if more than one action will
utilize this exception handler.
Here's an example action mapping using an exception
element:
Notice the element. The handler attribute is
the fully-qualified class name of your handler. As you
have done, it must extend the default handler. The type
attribute specifes the fully-qualified exception class
for when you want to call this exception handler. You
can put "java.lang.Exception" if you want this handler
to process all exceptions thrown during this Action.
Hope that helps,
