Thank you for your suggetion. It is a local forward and looks like this.
public final class InsertEmployeeAction extends Action {
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {
System.out.println("Here ..11");
EmployeeService service = new EmployeeService();
EmployeeForm employeeForm = (EmployeeForm) form;
EmployeeDTO employeeDTO = new EmployeeDTO();
BeanUtils.copyProperties( employeeDTO, employeeForm );
service.insertEmployee( employeeDTO );
request.setAttribute("employee",employeeDTO);
return (mapping.findForward("success"));
}
}
