• Datepicker tag is now using dojo's (limited in terms functionality and internationalization)
• Various changes to ConfigurationManager
  • ConfigurationManager is no longer a static factory. It is now an instance created through Dispatcher. Custom configuration could be done through DispatcherListener.
  • Configuration is no longer statically accessible, it is created by ConfigurationManager. Custom configuration could be done through ConfigurationManager which in turns could be configured through DispatcherListener.
  • Custom configuration to ConfigurationManager and Configuration cannot be done statically anymore, instead use Dispatcher's DispatcherListener to achieve such effect.
• The prepare interceptor now uses reflection to call prepareXxx where Xxx is the action method configured for the particular action in struts.xml

  Code Block
  <action name="myAction" method="execute" ....> ..... </action> // with the above configuration, and preparator interceptor in place, call // sequence will be 1] prepareExecute() 2] prepare() (could be left out depending on interceptor's alwaysInvokePreapre parameter) 3] execute()

• Default workflow interceptor (named workflow in struts-default.xml) now uses reflection to call validateXXX on the action class that implements Validateable interface where XXX is the action method configured for the particular actionin struts.xml.

  Code Block
  <action name="myAction" method="execute" ...> ... </action> // with the above configuration, and workflow interceptor in place, call // sequence for action that imlpements Validateable interface will be 1] validateExecute() 2] validate() (could be left out depending on interceptor's alwaysInvokeValidate parameter) 3] execute()
