Any thoughts on this? I'd like to add it to the nightly build, and have it put into the request as part of the Action processing.
This will help make Struts available to other presentation systems, like Velocity templates. I've been working with Geir and some others on this, and the early results look good. I'm sure the class will need some work, but would like to know if anyone sees any issues with the idea. -- Ted Husted, Husted dot Com, Fairport NY USA. -- Custom Software ~ Technical Services. -- Tel +1 716 737-3463 -- http://www.husted.com/struts/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5395 > Draft source code for a new action class, ActionContext.
