Handling wildcard action names with dot.

2011-03-01 Thread GF
I configured struts to handle url mapping with no extensions this way

constant name=struts.action.extension value=,, /

With this action mapping
action name=* class=myAction method=myMethod
param name=myId{1}/param
result type=tilesmyTile/result
/action

I can handle urls like:

/aaa/bbb/ccc
/aaa/bbb/ddd
/aaa/bbb/eee

But i wish to handle this kind of urls too:

/aaa/bbb/fff.xyz
/aaa/bbb/fff.jkw
/aaa/bbb/fff.anykindofextension

But when i insert a DOT in the action name (mapped by a wildcard) I
get a 404 error.


Any idea?

Thank you

I haven't looked at this for some time, but open up DefaultActionMapper and
have a look.  You can always substitute your own implementation if the
outta-the-box is not what you are looking for.

It's possible you might have to play with your filter entries in web.xml
also.  The container also maps by extension.

I'm afraid that you should consider to use apache mod_rewrite or
something like an url rewrite filter [1]?

Re: Handling wildcard action names with dot.

2011-03-01 Thread Fred Toth
Coincidentally, I've been working on this same issue. I needed struts 
actions to handle PDFs.


My solution was to add pdf to the action extensions, as in:

constant name=struts.action.extension value=pdf, /

Note the critical trailing comma which allows for blank extensions in 
addition to pdf. I'm not sure exactly how struts, by default, knows to 
ignore anything with an extension. Mostly this is a good thing, as it 
allows you to serve images, static resources, etc., without going 
through struts.


There's this interesting comment in the default.properties file inside 
the struts core jar:


### The blank extension allows you to match directory listings as well 
as pure action names

### without interfering with static resources.
struts.action.extension=action,,

Sounds like what you need is to handle ALL urls, with any possible 
extension? I don't know how to do that, but I bet there's a way. Of 
course this would mean that you would have to handle all static 
resources through struts which could be painful. But maybe you don't 
have any.


Thanks,

Fred
