Do you want to say, that Struts somehow gets to know that a form was
submitted? How exactly does it do that? Can you show it in the code?
There is nothing in request which says "this stuff comes from an HTML
form". Struts just gets a request with bunch of name/value pairs, and
this is it. How should it know that this is a submission?
No, what I'm saying is Struts doesn't distinguish between the two
(AFAIK). However, you seem to.
Regardless of your conventions for GET and POST, I still don't
understand how a call to reset() when a form is submitted messes up
your prepopulation routine when no forms are being submitted and
reset() doesn't get called.
I also differentiate between GET and POST requests so I can use the same
Action for form display and processing (which, I suppose, is an arguable
practice ;)
I think what he's saying is that:
1) he's doing something similar
2) he wants the init to happen somewhere besides in his code (eg, I have
a method in a base Action that I override in my "real" Actions that deal
with custom stuff for form preparation, putting objects into the request
scope, etc.)
IOW, he wants a bit more XML to define when/what gets called on a GET
vs. POST.
Is that, more or less, right?
