Struts does allow you to place all your files including jsp files under the
web-inf directory, and therefore make them much more difficult for outsiders
to view.  You also don't have to give the name of the jsp file you want to
access from a form submission/link.

action="someJsp.do"

in the struts-config.xml script:

<action path="/someJsp"
       forward="/web-inf/jsp/aJspFile.jsp"/>

Hope this helps

Subject: MVC security?



This issue has probably already been covered but if someone could lend me a
hand in describing any security benefits of having an MVC framework.

I'm not a security expert by any means, but my gut reaction is that the
struts framework provides some increase in security.  Could someone respond
back and describe what they are or aren't?

Thanks in advance!!
