grails AbstractController's public method don't register to sub controller

Question

I had an AbstractController in src/groovy/ssh

public void listAjax(){
   //do sth
}

then create-controller system.User

class UserController extends AbstractController{
}

but when I visit /user/listAjax, got 404 error.

parent's public method can't be auto register to sub controller?

Answer 1

Are you using Grails 2.0.0M1? Because in Grails 1.3.7 or lower, you can not use methods as controller actions.

If you are using Grails 1.3.7, try this instead for your AbstractController:

public class AbstractController {
    def listAjax = {
       //do sth
    }
}

Answer 2
