action class perform method

[Puneet Vardhan <pu...@sengen.com>]

Hi,
  Method 'perform'  in action class needs ActionForm as one of the
parameters. I dont have a form and I dont need one as I just need to call
perform method
 from a url . 
	like <a href="someaction.do" ...
Can I use perform method and ActionMapping inside perfom without having
ActionForm class?	

 Thanks
Puneet

Yes. Just don't put the form-related entries in your struts-config.xml file.
Your perform() method will be called with null passed for the form
parameter.

hi guys
Definitly u can use the perform method without the ActionForm parameter.
A null will be passed as the ActionForm parameter if the Action configuration directive in the
struts-config.xml file doesnt contain a "name" attribute

Hope this helps
