Class ActionAutowiringInterceptor

java.lang.Object

com.opensymphony.xwork2.interceptor.AbstractInterceptor

com.opensymphony.xwork2.spring.interceptor.ActionAutowiringInterceptor

All Implemented Interfaces:

Interceptor, Serializable, org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware

public class ActionAutowiringInterceptor
extends AbstractInterceptor
implements org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware

TODO: Give a description of the Interceptor. TODO: Describe the paramters for this Interceptor. TODO: Discuss some possible extension of the Interceptor.

 
 <!-- TODO: Describe how the Interceptor reference will effect execution -->
 <action name="someAction" class="com.examples.SomeAction">
      TODO: fill in the interceptor reference.
     <interceptor-ref name=""/>
     <result name="success">good_result.ftl</result>
 </action>
 
 

Autowires action classes to Spring beans. The strategy for autowiring the beans can be configured by setting the parameter on the interceptor. Actions that need access to the ActionContext can implements the ApplicationContextAware interface. The context will also be placed on the action context under the APPLICATION_CONTEXT attribute.

Parameters:

autowireStrategy -

intercept

public String intercept(ActionInvocation invocation)
                 throws Exception

Looks for the ApplicationContext under the attribute that the Spring listener sets in the servlet context. The configuration is done the first time here instead of in init() since the ActionContext is not available during Interceptor initialization.

Autowires the action to Spring beans and places the ApplicationContext on the ActionContext

TODO Should this check to see if the SpringObjectFactory has already been configured instead of instantiating a new one? Or is there a good reason for the interceptor to have it's own factory?
