DispatchAction Introspection problem

           Summary: DispatchAction Introspection problem
           Product: Struts
           Version: Nightly Build
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: Other
         Component: Standard Actions
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


This one is a bit subtle.

On line 214 of DispatchAction, a missing name parameter is reassigned a value of
"unspecified" in order to force dispatchMethod() to call the predefined
unspecified() method, which can be overridden to provide different handling of a
missing method name. Unfortunately, by relying on dispatchMethod(), you are also
relying on Class.getMethod(), which only returns public methods. This causes the
wrong error message to pop up on the browser.

I see at least four different ways to fix this, and they are all really easy, I
just don't know which one you guys prefer:

1) Make unspecified() public
2) Change line 214 to directly call unspecified()   (my preference)
3) Drop line 213-215 altogether, and dispatchMethod will get a null name and
directly call unspecified().
4) Change getMethod() to getDeclaredMethod() so the protected modifier no longer
matters.
