Assuming you want to do this to make use of the <html:messages> tag... The
default ExceptionHandler (org.apache.struts.action.ExceptionHandler) creates
an ActionErrors object which encapsulates the error message derived from the
Exception and the ExceptionConfig. By nature of the inheritance
relationship an ActionErrors is an ActionMessages. Therefor you can use the
<html:messages> tag with the ActionErrors created by the ExceptionHandler.
In your page you can iterate over the ActionErrors created by the
ExceptonHandler like so...
<html:messages id="error">
<li><c:out value="${error}" escapeXml="false"/></li>
</html:messages>
By default the "messages" tag will iterate over the ActionErrors rather than
the ActionMessages which is what you want in this case since
ExceptionHandler created and stored them as ActionErrors.
