In struts, there are five special Actions.They are
1.ForwardAction
2.DispathAction
3.LookupDispathAction
4.SwitchAction
5.IncludeAction
In these Actions first three actions (ForwardAction,DispatchAction, LookupDispatchAction) are very important.
I have already done a simple demo for DispatchAction which is about If we want to use more than one function in Action class what we have to do.
LookupDispathchAction is also similar to DispatchAction.
But, Additionally we have to do two things
1.Implemetation of getKeyMethodMap() method
2.put entry in .properties file
demoAction.java
-----------------
public class demoAction extends LookupDispatchAction
{
//your methods
protected Map getKeyMethodMap()
{
Map map=new HashMap();
map.put("operation.add","add");
map.put("operation.sub","sub");
//map your methods as above
return map;
}
}
Application.properties file entry
----------------------------------
operation.add=Add
operation.sub=Sub
...
