You basically want the opposite of prepare, but running before the result is rendered. AFAIK there's nothing like that built in to S2, and I'm not as opposed to your solution as some people might be. By explicitly putting the call in the method it's crystal-clear what's happening, where, why, and how. One solution I used, sort of a horrible interceptor/AOP hybrid, was to define an interface that accepted a Spring-configured list of pre- and post-processing to run during action method execution... It was less complicated than Spring AOP (and didn't sound as scary) and was application-specific (in that the pre-/post-processing methods had some idea what types of things they'd be expected to do). Not sure if I'd do it like that again, although it suited my purposes at the time. Just an idea, and I'll be interested in what other people have to say. With Spring's AOP available I'm not as sure I like the more "custom" mechanism I used, but it *was* easier for us at the time.
