Struts 2: Multiple methods in an action Class

[zuquirio <zu...@gmail.com>]

Hi,
I've a strange bug. I create an action class with three methods: view(),
check(), do(). These three methods are in one class. In my
struts-config.xml, I have made the following entries:


<action name="letterRequestIndex" class="springLetterRequestIndex"
method="view">
        <result
name="success">/WEB-INF/application/modules/letterrequest/index.jsp</result>
</action>
<action name="letterRequestCheck" class="springLetterRequestCheck"
method="check">

        <result name="input"
type="redirectAction">letterRequestIndex</result>
        <result
name="add">/WEB-INF/application/modules/letterrequest/addDetails.jsp</result>
        <result name="success"
type="redirectAction">letterRequestDoRequest</result>

</action>
<action name="letterRequestDoRequest"
class="springLetterRequestDoRequest" method="do">
        <result
name="success">/WEB-INF/application/modules/letterrequest/viewStatus.jsp</result>
        <result
name="add">/WEB-INF/application/modules/letterrequest/index.jsp</result>

</action>


When I call an action, i.e.: letterRequestDoRequest, this method is repeated
3 to 5 times. My question is: Why this action is repeated 3 to 5 times? Can
you help me?
The method called within the letterRequestDoRequest action is:


public String do() throws PortletException{	
        this.session =
PortletActionContext.getRequest().getPortletSession();
        
        LetterInfo letterInfo = new LetterInfo();

       
letterInfo.setTypeOfLetter((TypeOfLetter)this.session.getAttribute(TYPE_OF_LETTER));
        if
(letterInfo.getTypeOfLetter().getCode().equals(
                     
  TypeOfLetter.CONSULAR.getCode())){

                if
(this.getLetterInfo().getRecipient().trim().length() == 0){
                     
  setLetterInfo(letterInfo);

                     
  return ADD;
                } else {

                     
  letterInfo.setRecipient(getLetterInfo().getRecipient());
                }

        } else {
               
letterInfo.setRecipient("");
        }

        letterInfo.setDateOfRequest(new Date());
        letterInfo.setStatus(TypeOfStatus.UNPROCESSED);
        if
(BasicUtils.isFromThursdayToFriday(letterInfo.getDateOfRequest())) {
               
setStatusMessage(getText("label.afterNextFriday"));

               
letterInfo.setDateOfDelivery(
                     
          BasicUtils.getNextDay(

                     
                     
    letterInfo.getDateOfRequest(), Calendar.FRIDAY, 1));

        } else {
               
setStatusMessage(getText("label.nextFriday"));
               
letterInfo.setDateOfDelivery(

                     
          BasicUtils.getNextDay(

                     
                     
    letterInfo.getDateOfRequest(), Calendar.FRIDAY, 0));

        }
        setLetterInfo(letterInfo);
        this.letterRequestService.create(letterInfo);
        this.session.removeAttribute(TYPE_OF_LETTER);

        return SUCCESS;
}


Thanks in advance!!

Thanks a lot! I will give it a try. Actually the real method's name is:
doRequest, I will try to put a different name. Thanks.

What happens if you use a method name other than "do".

There's actually a feature in Struts 2 where we can name a method
"doDefault" and then refer to it as "default" elsewhere. Naming a
method "do" might be confusing.
