Hi, This is an implementation of ForwardDispatchAction. It maps like EventDispatchAction a property to value specified in the parameter's attribute of an action, thus
<action path="/Forward" parameter="edit=EDIT, save=SAVE, default=EDIT"> <forward name="EDIT" path="/someAction.do"/> <forward name="SAVE" path="/someOtherAction.do"/>< </action> but it does not call a method, but the forward of the action. <code> public class ForwardDispatchAction extends Action { @Override public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception { String forward = findForward(request, mapping.getParameter()); if(forward == null) { throw new ServletException("No mapping found for " + mapping.getPath()); } return mapping.findForward(forward); } private String findForward(HttpServletRequest request, String parameter) { StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(parameter, ","); String defaultForward = null; while(st.hasMoreTokens()) { String key = st.nextToken(); String value = key; int index = key.indexOf('='); if(index > -1) { value = key.substring(index + 1).trim(); key = key.substring(0, index).trim(); } if(key.equals("default")) { defaultForward = value; } if(request.getParameter(key) != null) { return value; } } return defaultForward; } } </code> Maybe you find this usefull.
