From a Struts developer point of view, the one required configuration file utilized used by the framework is web.xml. From here, you have full control over how Struts configures both itself and your application. By default, Struts will load a set of internal configuration files to configure itself, then another set to configure your application, however it is possible to build an entire Struts application without writing a single configuration file other than web.xml.

By default, the following packages are searched:

  • org.apache.struts2.static
  • template

Additional packages can be specified by providing a comma separated list to the configuration parameter named "packages" (configured in web.xml for the FilterDispatcher filter). When specifying additional static content, you should be careful not to expose sensitive configuration information (such as the password to a database).
