struts.xml
The core configuration file for the framework is the default (struts.xml
) file and should reside on the classpath
of the webapp (generally /WEB-INF/classes
).
- The default file may include other configuration files as needed.
- A
struts-plugin.xml
(and/or astruts-deferred.xml
) file can be placed in a JAR and automatically plugged into an application, so that modules can be self-contained and automatically configured. - In the case of Freemarker and Velocity modules, the templates can also be loaded from the classpath, so the entire module can be plugged in as a single JAR.
