Escapes HTML in actionName and chaining actions

[fustaki <lo...@gmail.com>]

Between versions 2.2.X and 2.3.X DefaultActionProxy started to apply
StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml4() to actionName.

This drastic change of behavior affects applications that strongly use
wildcard-patterns to pass parameters through actionName (friendly URLs).

Surely unescaping values in setter method of such parameters fixes this
point but shouldn't be a way to switch on/off this feature via
configuration?

Alternatively how can create and inject my own ActionProxy ?

Thanks!

Could be, please register an issue for that.

You can create your own ActionProxyFactory and setup it to be used by
S2, take a look on the REST plugin

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/struts/struts2/trunk/plugins/rest/src/main/resources/struts-plugin.xml
