[jira] Commented: (WW-2770) @Result type should be a class

["Dave Newton (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2770?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=44576#action_44576 ] 

Dave Newton commented on WW-2770:
---------------------------------

This can't possibly be a "critical" issue; "critical" should be reserved for things that actually affect normal operation rather than personal preference.

Using a name rather than a class allows for trivial implementation changes, just like the naming of spring beans. Feel free to append a patch, however; it will be reviewed and discussed.

> It feels like a huge step backwards from the Codebehind plugin to use a string as the type parameter to the @Result annotation. I much prefer the type safety and IDE support provided by using the actual result class.  The same can be said of the interceptor annotations.
