You might also think of using a Struts interceptor (and possibly a
ServiceBeanAware interface) to automatically inject that ServiceBean into
Any action that needs it.

Hi,
Let assume your base class is like this:
public class BaseAction extends ActionSupport {
private MyService myService;
public void setMyService(MyService service) {
this.myService = service;
}
//put others getter and setter here...
}
public class FooAction extends BaseAction {
//do whatever you want with myService
}
public class BarAction extends BaseAction {
//create anything you like with myService
}
in your applicationContext.xml, declare something shown below:
<bean id="baseAction" class="your.package.name.BaseAction"
abstract="true">
<property name="myService" ref="myService"/>
</bean>
<bean id="fooAction" class="your.foo.package.name.FooAction"
parent="baseAction"/>
<bean id="barAction" class="your.bar.package.name.BarAction"
parent="baseAction"/>
