We talked about this a few months ago on the struts-dev list. I believe since we can't have both ActionMessages validate() ActionErrors validate() Some developers wanted to wait for Struts 2.0 to deprecate the method. Some wanted to do it sooner. There really isn't a reason why we couldn't add a doValidate() method that returned a ActionMessages. > > and also i saw, that the validator gets > initialized with an ActionErrors-object in: Resources.initValidator(); > > inside of initValidator() > this happends: > validator.setParameter(ACTION_ERRORS_PARAM, errors) > > but "key" for errors is this: > private static String ACTION_ERRORS_PARAM = > "org.apache.struts.action.ActionMessages"; > > > the first parameter of "setParameter()" is called: "parameterClassName". > so the errors gets initialized as an ActionMessages-object, isn´t? > > > so question: > why is the ActionErrors not deprecated? > > in release-notes i saw: > "Although not removed, in many cases you should replace the deprecated > ActionErrors with the preferred ActionMessages to ensure correct > operation." > > > why not in all? > > it would be fine, to know this ;-) > > greetings > > Matthias > > > Matthias Weßendorf > Email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > URL: http://www.wessendorf.net > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
