Struts 2 Plug-in and JSP 404
I am working on a plug-in that needs to display a JSP. I have the plug-in
packaged with the following struts-plugin.xml, however, rather than the
/pages/config.jsp page appearing, I get a 404! The folder "pages" is in the
root of my config-plugin.jar file and I have changed the result by both
including and omitting the leading slash and I get a 404 either way. My
action is returning SUCCESS as verified through the debugger. Does anyone
see anything glaringly wrong?
<struts>
<package name="config" namespace="/config" extends="struts-default">
<action name="maintainConfig_*"
class="com.erac.wsf.action.ConfigAction" method="{1}">
<result>/pages/config.jsp</result>
<result name="error">/pages/config.jsp</result>
</action>
</package>
</struts>
Peace,
Scott

yes, it is intentionally not documented as we don't want people to
experiment with it much, but xwork will sort the plugins according to
the "order" attribute, the default is Integer.MAX_VALUE.

Yeah, I can't remember when it was added, but the 'struts' element in
struts-plugin.xml can take an attribute called 'order'
Take a look at the osgi and convention plugin, they are the only two
using it... But, I think they were the problem before, OSGi needed to
be loaded before convention for the two to work together properly.

Did we ever come up with a way to order the loading of plugins so that
interdependencies can be properly resolved? I.E.: Can one write a
plugin that uses the capabilities of this plugin and ensure that it will
be loaded only after the dependency?

Thanks brother! Do you know of a decent JSP ---> Freemarker converter? I
sort of wondered why the config-browser plug in was using Freemarker. It
really sucks when something like this rears it ugly head and brings
productivity to a screeching halt!
P.S. And I really thought I was going to have time this evening for that

JSP tags wont't funtion inside jars -- the "JSP"s you might have spotted in jars are probably using Freemarker tags which will work in jars.

Or if you are very brave, and using java 6, you can use jasper to
compile the jsp to java, then use the java api compile to compile to a
class file, load it and then execute it, but yeah FreeMarker would be
easier :)

Agreed, but I believe I've been told that can't be done with jsp
templates. This is why plugins that I've seen have been implemented in
freemarker.

It is a limitation on the JSP API, you can't embed them. You will have
to use FreeMarker or Velocity or any other decent template lib.

Thanks Dale --
I hear what you are saying, and this seemed a little foreign to me too!
However, for a plug-in to be a drop-n-go deal, I sort of think the goods
should all be in the plug-in jar itself? Make sense? I was looking at this
article, and it appears this cat has a JSP working in his plug-in?
http://www.struts2.org/category/struts2-plugins/
http://www.struts2.org/category/struts2-plugins/
The reason for this plug-in is to eliminate a couple pages of configuration
steps for the adopter of my application. I'd rather not say just drop the
plug-in in your WEB-INF/lib folder and then copy JSP files here...
