Hi Koen,
Use the struts-config.xml if you want to create a new application. It's the
new version 1.0 file format used by struts. For compatibility with version
0.5, Struts can read the old action.xml file. The version you choose to use
is defined in web.xml:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>config</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
