writing actions

[gorillacommunications <le...@gorillacommunications.com>]

Hi All,

I am trying to write an action for my application.
I have this line in my sitemap to define the action.
   <map:action logger="sitemap.action.gs-login" name="login"
src="com.kg.gs.GSLogin"/>


My class is in a jar file in \tomcat\webapps\cocoon\WEB-INF\lib. Is
this the correct place for it? Also, I am confused about what my class
needs to extend. Is it AbstractAction? The method I want to call
is "login". I would love to see an example
of a class someone has written, so I can figure out how to write my
class and how to return a value.

I also have this pipeline:
  <map:pipeline>
    <map:match pattern="login">
      <map:act type="gs-login">
<!-- how do I get the return value and pass it to the redirect page? -->
        <map:redirect-to uri="gs"/>
      </map:act>
      <map:serialize type="html"/>
    </map:match>
  </map:pipeline>

Obviously, I'm doing something wrong, because I get the following error
when I try to run my application:

type fatal

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Many thanks,
