Specify a name for a validate function

[Anna Simbirtsev]

Hello

    <action    path="/value_add"
               type="com.struts.action.MyAction"
               name="value_add_form"
               scope="request"
               validate="true">
  </action>

Does it call the validate function in the form class?
Can I specify the name of validate the function to call?

Thank you
