Answer / sumit sharma

Yes it is possible... If you are developing the distributed
applications (means do you have diff modules)
then you can provide any number of struts-config.xml files
based on your number of modules.
But the thing is you must enter those struts-config.xml
files details in deployment descripter (i.e. web.xml) like
<init-param>
<param-name>
config</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-first-config.xml /WEB-
INF/struts-second-config.xml /WEB-INF/struts-third-
config.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
Here I assumed as 'I have 3 modules'. Thats why I entered 3
struts-config.xml files information.
In the time of calling files which are provided under
different modules you must provide Page and prefix
attributes in
your URL.
