Ahh nevermind the first mail, I managed to work around it.
I still have a problem of not being able to access parameters via my prepare
method though. Here's my action class:
public class UserActions extends StrutsSupport implements Preparable {
public void prepare()
{
if(id != null) //property is located in superclass StrutsSupport
user= appManager.readUser(Long.valueOf(id));
}
}
and the struts mapping:
<action name="update/user/*"
class="net.myapp.web.UserActions">
<interceptor-ref name="paramsPrepareParamsStack"/>
{1}
<result>/models/user/update.jsp</result>
</action>
The whole flow is that when you access the above action the user object is
read and its values populate the form in update.jsp. But the id property is
never set so the form is never populated. I even tried setting
paramsPrepareParamsStack as the default stack but with no luck.
