Handling wildcard action names with dot.
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 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
Re: Handling wildcard action names with dot.
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.
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.
