Make the <forward> "name" attribute optional and default to name "success". STR-3027 The Controller shall, in the absence of the <action> "input", search for the standard forward named "input" . STR-3025
The purpose of this page is to define high-level requirements that will go into the Struts 1.4 release.
The 1.4 release will focus on being a "bridge" to 2.1 by adopting some of the conventions and ideas to make the user's codebase look similar to 2.x actions. This will mainly benefit users who already have large 1.x applications, but cannot afford to refactor and replace previous development.
If possible, the 1.4 controller should be able to run side-by-side with 2.1 and interact rather well.
Make the <forward> "name" attribute optional and default to name "success". STR-3027 The Controller shall, in the absence of the <action> "input", search for the standard forward named "input" . STR-3025 Place the S2 SUCCESS, INPUT, ERROR, LOGIN constants in Action. STR-3024 Allow actions to be prototypical STR-3067 Introduce an extensible dispatcher (and provide standard implementations) that makes dispatching a first-class citizen in Struts. The framework can allow subclasses to dispatch to any kind of method signature, provided support for interpreting the return value is also there. STR-3168 Tiles2 integration
