In the above code we mapped the string whichever comes next to the application context to the field username. For example if the request is\u00a0http:\/\/localhost:8080\/CustomURL\/rajesh<\/span>\u00a0 the framework will assign the value ‘rajesh’ to username field and then will proceed like normal struts2 flow. But one important thing is it will not accept slash in that. For example if the request is http:\/\/localhost:8080\/CustomURL\/test\/rajesh<\/span>\u00a0the framework will not call the above action. Because the request is for inside a package test. See the finalized code of struts.xml below.<\/p>\n
