Convenience class for Spring-aware Struts 1.2 MappingDispatchActions.
Provides a reference to the current Spring application context, e.g.
for bean lookup or resource loading. Auto-detects a ContextLoaderPlugIn
context, falling back to the root WebApplicationContext. For typical
usage, i.e. accessing middle tier beans, use a root WebApplicationContext.
As an alternative approach, you can wire your Struts Actions themselves
as Spring beans, passing references to them via IoC rather than looking
up references in a programmatic fashion. Check out
DelegatingActionProxy and
DelegatingRequestProcessor .

For classic Struts Actions, DispatchActions or LookupDispatchActions, use the analogous ActionSupport or DispatchActionSupport / LookupDispatchActionSupport class.
