Use action-mappings elements to associate an URL with a controller command interface

URL	Store ID	Controller command interface	HTTPS	Authenticate	Credentials Accepted
StoreCatalogDisplay	0	com.ibm.commerce.catalog.commands.StoreCatalogDisplayCmd	0	0	NULL
AddressAdd	0	com.ibm.commerce.usermanagement.commands.AddressAddCmd	0	0	NULL
AddressAdd	201	com.ibm.commerce.usermanagement.commands.AddressAddCmd	1	1	P

Where:

>

URL

The URL name.

Store ID

The store reference number for this URI or 0 to mean any store.

HTTPS

The value of 1 indicates that the request was expected to be received on a secure channel (HTTPS) and a redirect to the SSL port will be issued if it has been received on an insecure channel (HTTP).

Authenticate

The value of 1 indicates that user logon is required for this URI. If the user is not logged on when trying to access this URI, the user will be redirected to the logon page before being able to proceed.

Credentials Accepted

The value of P indicates that partially authenticated users are entitled to access this resource.

The following action-mappings configuration element describes these associations:

<action-mappings type="com.ibm.commerce.struts.ECActionMapping">         

   <action path="/StoreCatalogDisplay" 
           parameter="com.ibm.commerce.catalog.commands.StoreCatalogDisplayCmd" 
           type="com.ibm.commerce.struts.BaseAction" />

   <action path="/AddressAdd" 
           parameter="com.ibm.commerce.usermanagement.commands.AddressAddCmd" 
           type="com.ibm.commerce.struts.BaseAction">

           <set-property property="https" value="0:0,201:1" />
           <set-property property="authenticate" value="201:1" />
           <set-property property="credentialsAccepted" value="201:P" />

   </action>

</action-mappings>

Note in particular:

• The use of the parameter attribute of the action element to specify the name of the interface of the controller command to invoke.

• The values of the type attributes.

• The syntax of the value attribute of the nested set-property element: a comma-separated list of storeID : propertyValue pairs that defaults to 0:0.
