Right. So, is there an existing implementation of this somewhere or I would have write my own.

> Model 2 / MVC / Front Controller are all the same thing. Hmm... No, they are not. Front Controller and MVC are similar, but are NOT the same design patterns! Front Controller is used for a sequence of predefined steps (like a check out on amazon). MVC is used for separation of Model (data handling), View (presentation handling), Conroller (where to go). Whatever it is, those 2 design patterns are not the same. > In Struts the > "Front Controller" is the "ActionServlet", it > receives/handles/dispatches every single request that comes into your > web app. You write actions that are like units of functionality, then > specify in a mapping file the relationship between URLs and the Action, > then depending on where the user is going, the ActionServlet will call > the appropriate Action at the appropriate time to handle the user's request. Are you suggesting that Struts gives you the ability to specify a sequence of actions? If so, I am not following how one would do that. >From what I understand Struts would give you the ability to specify where each action ends up, and in that sense you ARE specifying a sequence of actions.

Re: Front Controller?
Model 2 / MVC / Front Controller are all the same thing. In Struts the "Front Controller" is the "ActionServlet", it receives/handles/dispatches every single request that comes into your web app. You write actions that are like units of functionality, then specify in a mapping file the relationship between URLs and the Action, then depending on where the user is going, the ActionServlet will call the appropriate Action at the appropriate time to handle the user's request.
