struts 2.1.6 question

[Gr...@ricoh.co.uk]

Hello,

I have a general question on struts 2.1.6.

I have noticed that when an action adds an error message and then chains 
to another action it does not call the execute(). 

eg   BookmarkAdd.  If there is an error in the execute if(getFolder() == 
null)  it adds an error message and then returns ERROR which in turn 
chains to bookmarks.  It then displays the error message but does not call 
the execute (it does call the myprepare() however) showing an empty list.

Has anyone else seen this?


Also, I have had to add the <result name="input" 
type="tiles">.Bookmarks</result> otherwise no result INPUT error is shown.

BookmarkAdd....

   @SkipValidation
    public String execute() {
 
        if(getFolder() == null) {
            // TODO: i18n
            addError("Cannot add bookmark to null folder");
            return ERROR;
        }
 
        return INPUT;
    }


<action name="bookmarks!*" method="{1}"
 class="org.apache.roller.weblogger.ui.struts2.editor.Bookmarks">
            <result name="list" type="tiles">.Bookmarks</result>
            <result name="input" type="tiles">.Bookmarks</result>
        </action>

<action name="bookmarkAdd!*" method="{1}"
 class="org.apache.roller.weblogger.ui.struts2.editor.BookmarkAdd">
            <result name="input" type="tiles">.BookmarkAdd</result>
            <result name="success" type="chain">bookmarks</result>
            <result name="error" type="chain">bookmarks</result>
  </action>

Cheers Greg
