Just as an example, we can examine the username and password values. If either or both properties are empty, return INPUT, so that we can collect a valid Logon. Otherwise, return SUCCESS.

package tutorial;
import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionSupport;
public class Logon extends ActionSupport {

    public String execute() throws Exception {

        if (isInvalid(getUsername())) return INPUT;
        if (isInvalid(getPassword())) return INPUT;
        return SUCCESS;
    }

    private boolean isInvalid(String value) {
        return (value == null || value.length() == 0);
    }

    private String username;
    public String getUsername() {
        return username;
    }
    public void setUsername(String username) {
        this.username = username;
    }

    private String password;
    public String getPassword() {
        return password;
    }
    public void setPassword(String password) {
        this.password = password;
    }

}

...

The framework automaticaly populates the username and password properties for us. All that's left to do is checking to see if either property is empty.
