Re: struts config trouble with Actions inheritance

I've seen you post this message in several places but I have yet to see any
evidence of why this is better than XDoclet?  Care to offer any?  If it's
for reference purposes, why can't you just refer to the generated
struts-config.xml file?  It's not like I refer to the XDoclet attributes in
my source files for the life of the application.  I write it once and its
done.

A single location (generated file) is better as far as I'm concerned, and
who wants their document root litered with XML files?  I'm interested to
know, do you hand code the XML files?  I, like most programmers, am not a
huge fan of typing out XML files.  Where is the metadata for the mappings?
Is it the XML files themselves?
