[jira] Created: (WW-2394) Zero Configuration is too limited - cannot eliminate struts.xml

Zero Configuration is too limited - cannot eliminate struts.xml
---------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WW-2394
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2394
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: "New" API
    Affects Versions: 2.0.11
         Environment: Java 5; Vista; JBoss 4.0.5.GA
            Reporter: Christian Bonami


Consider this struts.xml snippet:

		<action name="customerContract"
			class="customerContractAction">
			<result name="success" type="dispatcher">
				/jsp/s2/customerContract.jsp
			</result>
		</action>
		<action name="customerContractFilter"
			class="customerContractAction" method="filter">
			<result name="success" type="dispatcher">
				/jsp/s2/customerContract.jsp
			</result>
		</action>

The zero configuration -at this time- only has @Result and @Results tags. This means that:
- it is not possible to configure multiple actions that share the same action-class (or action-bean in Spring); 'customerContract' and 'customerContractFilter' both point to the same action class, only the 'method' parameter is different ==> Struts 2 should offer some annotations for this
- there's no way to express (with an annotation) that the Action-object should be injected with Spring beans (in a specific Spring ApplicationContext). It would be nice that such a feature would also be added to the framework
This way, we could (completely/partially) eliminate the struts.xml file, or, in other words, make Zero Configuration really practically useable (which, IMHO, is not the case now.

Christian
