[S2] Problem with ! notation

[Roger Varley <ro...@googlemail.com>]

Hi

I'm trying to call a method on my action using the ! notation as
explained in the CRUD demo. If I call my action from the browser bar
as http://localhost:8084/Tiger/StartOrder.action then the execute()
method runs. If I call
http://localhost:8084/Tiger/StartOrder!execute.action then I get the
Struts error page with the message There is no Action mapped for
namespace / and action name StartOrder!execute. - [unknown location]
(I've checked it with !Execute as well). I'm obviously missing
something ....

Regards
Roger

Forget the previous post - it's working after a fashion.
http://localhost:8084/Tiger/StartOrder.action runs OK and calls
StartOrder.input().
http://localhost:8084/Tiger/StartOrder!input.action runs OK and calls
StartOrder.input()
http://localhost:8084/Tiger/StartOrder!execute.action fails even
though I have an execute method.

Yes, Tiger is the webapp.

My struts.xml contains
 <action name="StartOrder"
class="com.mysite.ecommerce.actions.StartOrderAction" method="input">
 <result>/startOrder.jsp</result>
</action>

My struts.properties is located in WEB_INF/classes along with the
struts.xml file and contains
struts.devMode = true
struts.enable.DynamicMethodInvocation = true

If I call http://localhost:8084/Tiger/StartOrder.action then I can see
that the input() method is called on StartOrder.action through using
System.out.println(). However
http://localhost:8084/Tiger/StartOrder!input.action gives There is no
Action mapped for namespace / and action name StartOrder!input. -
[unknown location]

Is there anything else you need to see? I don't want to send too much
unneccassary data

Roger

You might have to post config snippets... I'm assuming
Tiger is the webapp?

It wasn't. I've changed the struts.properties file from
struts.enable.DynamicMethodInvocation = false to
struts.enable.DynamicMethodInvocation = true and restarted Tomcat but
no joy I'm afraid -
http://localhost:8084/Tiger/StartOrder!execute.action still gives me
the error message.

It may be off by default as it isn't the recommended way to do things. Using
wildcards is the preferred way.

As an aside, why is dynamic method invocation turned off by default.

Is dynamic method invocation turned on?
