suggested alternatives to struts-plugin

[Martin Gainty <mg...@hotmail.com>]

Good Evening All-

The scenario is Spring 1.x framework with normal complement of IOC bells and whistles
A colleague removes the struts-plugin from his project and noticed he lost capability for Action to reach context info from the webapp
Replacing the struts-plugin did work... thankfully
Is/Are there any alternative strategies for a Struts Action class to acquire the webapp context ???

Many Thanks for any suggestions

Firstly, why would you want to remove the plugin that provides the 
functionality you need, then look for alternatives? Is there some way in 
which the plugin is causing you problems?

If you really do need to go this route, Spring provides utility classes 
for obtaining a reference to the context; you might be able to leverage 
that. Spring2, or course, also supports annotation-driven injection 
which might be more straight-forward.
