In this section we will explore Struts 2.1.8 show case application. We will use Tomcat to install and test the application.

I am assuming that you have already installed apache-tomcat-6.0.26 on your computer. Now copy the struts2-showcase-2.1.8.1.war file into webapps directory of tomcat and then start the tomcat.

 Now open the browser and type http://localhost:8080/struts2-showcase-2.1.8.1/. Your browser should display the showcase application's home page.


The showcase application provides following examples:

  1. Ajax
  2. Ajax Chat
  3. Action Chaining
  4. Config Browser
  5. Conversion
  6. CRUD
