URL Mappings

Please excuse if this question has been answered before.  I can't find 
any direct reference to it.

How would I configure Struts2 to treat .htm requests in the same way as 
.action requests.

I freely admit I do not understand how 
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher identifies between static 
and not static content.

For SEO and for familiarity for average users, I'd like all our URLs to 
end in .htm

Is this possible and how do I go about this.

Thanks
Robin

Re: URL Mappings

Posted by Robin Mannering <ro...@mtndesigns.co.uk>.
Thanks for all the feedback on this post!

Having seen the post from Martin regarding

<constant name="struts.action.extension" value="action,htm" />

I've now also seen the equivalent declaration in struts.properties :

struts.action.extension=action

But most probably know that I guess.

Thanks also for the heads up on the deprecated 
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher in favour of 
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter.

Next generation?

Multiple filters were created to deal with problems arising from using
things like the sitemesh filter and struts tags inside of decorators.

in 2.1.6 StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter is implemented in /blank/WEB-INF/web.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app id="WebApp_9" version="2.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">
    <display-name>Struts Blank</display-name>

    <filter>
        <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
        <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter</filter-class>
    </filter>

    <filter-mapping>
        <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
        <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>
    <welcome-file-list>
        <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
    </welcome-file-list>
</web-app>

code:
/*Handles both the preparation and execution phases of the Struts dispatching process.    
 * This filter is better to use
 * when you don't have another filter that needs access to action context information, 
 * such as Sitemesh. */
public class StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter implements StrutsStatics, Filter {
.......
}
mainly to access action-context
but also implements StrutsStatics

maybe wes would know i think he works extensively with SiteMesh

D'oh!  I didn't know that!

I'm a bit confused, though -- are the javadocs here:
