xWork-2.1.3 available yet that fixes problem with Struts 2.1.6?
We have a problem with using Struts 2.1.6 because we use Maven to manage our
dependencies and because we have Tomcat installed in a folder with spaces on
our development computers. This causes a problem for xWork-2.1.2 as
documented here:
http://www.nabble.com/NPE-initializing-2.1.6-showcase-in-Tomcat-6.0.18-td21475914.html#a21611989
http://www.nabble.com/struts-2.1.6-conventions-plugin-questions-td21614167.html#a21718979
Since we use Maven to manage our dependencies our projects using Struts
2.1.6 automatically receive xWork-2.1.2.
Does anyone know when xWork-2.1.3 will be available and when Struts 2.1.6's
pom will be updated to use it?
We have halted our upgrade to Struts 2.1.6 because of this issue.

We should get an xwork build out sooner than later, to fix this
problem and the one related to conversion.

Wes - thanks for the feedback. I'm posting the below for others who may run
into this problem and need to get the newer version of xWork.
I checked the latest xWork source out using a subversion client
(www.collab.net). This is the command:
svn co http://svn.opensymphony.com/svn/xwork/trunk
I then imported this xWork Maven project into Eclipse (with Maven 2 plugin).
I then ran the Maven install task to build the project and install it in my
Maven repository. It installed as 2.1.3-SNAPSHOT.
I changed my project's pom file to:
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.struts</groupId>
<artifactId>struts2-core</artifactId>
<version>2.1.6</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>com.opensymphony</groupId>
<artifactId>xwork</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.opensymphony</groupId>
<artifactId>xwork</artifactId>
<version>2.1.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
I was then able to generate a .war file for my Struts 2 project that would
load correctly in my Tomcat 6 server.

2.1.3 is a snapshot. I don't know if xwork is published to a snapshot repo. I
would try enabling snapshots, then change the dependency to 2.1.3-SNAPSHOT
If that doesn't work (which it may not), you can grab a copy of it somewhere,
or build it yourself. I would suggest building, it only takes a minute to
checkout from SVN and compile, this way you can trust the source. If you grab
a copy of the jar, rather than building, you'll have to `mvn install` it.
Of course, you can go the ol' fashioned (C / OSS) way and find the patch that
fixes your problem, apply it and rebuild the 2.1.2 with the patch applied.
Either way, there are many options, I suppose the route you take depends more
on your needs than anything else.

Dave and Wes - Thank you both for the replies.
We can exclude the xWork 2.1.2 jar dependency from Struts 2.1.6 in our
pom.xml file for our projects as Wes suggests. However, it doesn't appear
that xWork 2.1.3 jar is available in the repository as this fails:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.opensymphony</groupId>
<artifactId>xwork</artifactId>
<version>2.1.3</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

You can exclude XWork in your pom.xml, then declare a dependency on what you
want. I do it all the time with Spring... The Struts2-Spring plugin brings in
2.5.3, but for a while, there was a reason to get 2.5.6 (I'm trying to
remember the issue, but it was a bug with a persistence-related class in
2.5.3). Anyhow, here's an example -
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.openjpa</groupId>
<artifactId>openjpa-persistence</artifactId>
<version>1.2.0</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.apache.geronimo.specs</groupId>
<artifactId>geronimo-jms_1.1_spec</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.apache.geronimo.specs</groupId>
<artifactId>geronimo-jpa_3.0_spec</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.apache.geronimo.specs</groupId>
<artifactId>geronimo-jta_1.1_spec</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
(sorry example doesn't relate to the rant above, but the same idea). Once you
exclude some libs, you, of course, have to bring something in to take it's
place.

Does declaring your own dependency for XWork (not xWork) 2.1.3 work, or
does it just retrieve both?

Struts 2.1.6 is already released; its pom won't change. I haven't been
keeping track of recent commits, so I don't know if there will be
2.1.6.n or if we'll bump the build number.
