IU'm not sure about "best possible" design, but I have one that's
relatively simple and easy to understand.
The home page for my struts application is /user/home.do. This is mapped
to a simple action that checks the user's primary role (which is
available through a special User object that I keep in the user's
session). I simply execute this code:
return mapping.findForward(user.getPrimaryRole());
Then, in my struct-config.xml file, I have something like this:
<action path="/user/home" type="...">
<forward name="user" path="..." />
<forward name="staff" path="..." />
<forward name="admin" path="..." />
</action>
Straightforward to read, and easy to implement.
