## Class DelegatingActionUtils

- java.lang.Object
- - org.springframework.web.struts.DelegatingActionUtils

- Deprecated.
  as of Spring 3.0

      @Deprecated
      public abstract class DelegatingActionUtils
      extends Object

  Common methods for letting Struts Actions work with a Spring WebApplicationContext.

  As everything in Struts is based on concrete inheritance, we have to provide an Action subclass (DelegatingActionProxy) and two RequestProcessor subclasses (DelegatingRequestProcessor and DelegatingTilesRequestProcessor). The only way to share common functionality is a utility class like this one.

  Since:
    1.0.2
