Chapter 8. Struts Project Verification

In this section we'll consider one more functionality that JBoss Tools provide for Struts projects, namely adjusting projects verification.

To configure Struts project verification select Window > Preferences from the menu bar, select JBoss Tools > Web > Verification from the Preferences dialog box and then expand the Struts Rules node.

Suppose you are working in the Source viewer for a Struts configuration file as shown below:

While typing a class name or entering it from the graphical editor, you might make a minor typo (like "sample.GreetingAction1" instead of "sample.GreetingAction" ). After saving the file, verification checks to make sure everything is correct and finds the error below:

Notice that the Package Explorer View shows a marked folder and a marked file where the error is.

You can place the cursor over the line with the error to view a detailed error message:

The verification also checks to make sure you have specified the correct JSP page for the forward:
