Mixing convention plugin and legacy action mappings
We've recently migrated to Struts 2.1.6 and started looking into the
convention plugin. Since our application is far along the 2.0.x way of
doing things it's difficult to make whole sale changes immediately.
We'd like to start introducing new features with the convention plugin
and slowly adapt the other actions as we find time.
Out of the box this didn't seem to work. Has anyone tried doing this?
Our struts.properties file has the following:
struts.action.extension=action
struts.ui.templateSuffix=ftl
I've noticed that when I comment out the struts.action.extension then
the convention plugin works fine with the new actions but all of our
legacy *.action classes don't work. Any tips would be greatly appreciated

I think as I was typing a response I may have discovered the issue. We
had a wildcard catch all for the root namespace which was throwing
things off.
<action name="*" class="com.x.web.struts2.action.BaseAction">
<result>/ftl/{1}.ftl</result>
</action>
Once I created a stand alone package com.xm.web.struts2.test.HelloAction
I was able to use both /test/hello and /test/hello.action
Thanks for your quick response.

Convention configuration just gets mixed with xml configuration, they
should not conflict. What kind of problem are you having?
