Accessing the ExceptionHandler

[Jonathan Fullam <jo...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I'd like to access the ExceptionHandler from a class other than an Action
class.  Preferably, I'd like to access the same instance that Struts uses
from within an Action.  If this is not possible, does anybody know how I can
get to the specific ExceptionHandler class name so that I can create a new
instance?

Assume that I have access to the current HttpServletRequest and
ActionMapping objects.

I need this because I'm calling an inner class that implement Runnable from
within an Action class.  I start running a thread in my Action execute
method so that I can do some processing in the background so the user
doesn't have to wait (any better approaches to accomplishing this are
welcome as well).

Thanks,
Jonathan
