Struts2动作映射问题

Question

Hello everyone,

it's not really an issue but I'd like to know how do I restrict the following behavior.

I have this set in my stuts.xml file.

<struts>
    <constant name="struts.enable.DynamicMethodInvocation" value="false" />
    <constant name="struts.devMode" value="false" />
    <constant name="struts.custom.i18n.resources" value="ApplicationResources" />

    <package name="default" extends="struts-default" namespace="/">
        <result-types>
            <result-type name="tiles" class="org.apache.struts2.views.tiles.TilesResult" />
        </result-types>

        <action name="blue">
            <result name="success" type="tiles">/blue.tiles</result>
        </action>

        <action name="yellow">
            <result name="success" type="tiles">/yellow.tiles</result>
        </action>

        <action name="red">
            <result name="success" type="tiles">/red.tiles</result>
        </action>
     </package>
</struts>

Now what bothers me, is that the actions are acessible like this:

http://localhost:port/blue
http://localhost:port/yellow
http://localhost:port/red

but you can also access them like this..

http://localhost:port/yellow/blue/
http://localhost:port/red/blue/yellow

so ti triggers all the actions mentioned after "/".

I want to prevent this from happening , so I'd like to know if there's any way to restrict it?

thanks in advance, Alex

In the web.xml you might having an entry like this for the struts action mapping

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>struts2</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

As per the servlet specification A string beginning with a '/' character and ending with a '/*' suffix is used for path mapping

So if you want to give the absolute url mapping, then you have to specify them like below

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>struts2</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/blue</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>struts2</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/yellow</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>struts2</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/red</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

If you are using struts 2.1.7 or more then you can add a exclude pattern like below

<constant name="struts.action.excludePattern" value="/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/.*"/>
