Struts1.3.10深入源代码之核心类ActionServlet类

org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet类是Struts框架的核心控制器组件，所有的用户请求都由ActionServlet类来处理，然后再由ActionServlet把请求转发给其他组件。Struts框架只允许在一个应用中配置一个ActionServlet类，在应用的生命周期中，仅创建ActionServlet类的一个实例，这个ActionServlet实例可以同时相应多个用户的请求。
Struts框架的初始化过程：Servlet容器在启动时，或者用户首次请求ActionServlet时加载ActionServlet类。Servlet类在ActionServlet类被加载后立即执行它的init（）方法，这可以保证当ActionServlet处理用户请求时已经被初始化。

下面是init（）方法：

public void init() throws ServletException {
        final String configPrefix = "config/";
        final int configPrefixLength = configPrefix.length() - 1;

        // Wraps the entire initialization in a try/catch to better handle
        // unexpected exceptions and errors to provide better feedback
        // to the developer
        try {
            initInternal();
            initOther();
            initServlet();
            initChain();

            getServletContext().setAttribute(Globals.ACTION_SERVLET_KEY, this);
            initModuleConfigFactory();

            // Initialize modules as needed
            ModuleConfig moduleConfig = initModuleConfig("", config);

            initModuleMessageResources(moduleConfig);
            initModulePlugIns(moduleConfig);
            initModuleFormBeans(moduleConfig);
            initModuleForwards(moduleConfig);
            initModuleExceptionConfigs(moduleConfig);
            initModuleActions(moduleConfig);
            moduleConfig.freeze();

            Enumeration names = getServletConfig().getInitParameterNames();

            while (names.hasMoreElements()) {
                String name = (String) names.nextElement();

                if (!name.startsWith(configPrefix)) {
                    continue;
                }

                String prefix = name.substring(configPrefixLength);

                moduleConfig =
                    initModuleConfig(prefix,
                        getServletConfig().getInitParameter(name));
                initModuleMessageResources(moduleConfig);
                initModulePlugIns(moduleConfig);
                initModuleFormBeans(moduleConfig);
                initModuleForwards(moduleConfig);
                initModuleExceptionConfigs(moduleConfig);
                initModuleActions(moduleConfig);
                moduleConfig.freeze();
            }

            this.initModulePrefixes(this.getServletContext());

            this.destroyConfigDigester();
        } catch (UnavailableException ex) {
            throw ex;
        } catch (Throwable t) {
            // The follow error message is not retrieved from internal message
            // resources as they may not have been able to have been
            // initialized
            log.error("Unable to initialize Struts ActionServlet due to an "
                + "unexpected exception or error thrown, so marking the "
                + "servlet as unavailable.  Most likely, this is due to an "
                + "incorrect or missing library dependency.", t);
            throw new UnavailableException(t.getMessage());
        }
    }

在init（）初始化方法中主要有下面几步构成：
（1）调用initInternal（）方法，初始化Struts框架内在的消息资源，如与系统日志相关的通知、警告和错误消息。
（2）调用initOther（）方法，从web.xml文件中加载ActionServlet的初始化参数，如congig参数。
（3）调用initServlet（）方法，从web.xml文件中加载ActionServlet的URL映射信息。此外还会注册web.xml和Struts配置文件所使用的DTD文件，这些DTD文件用来验证web.xml和Struts配置文件的语法。
（4）调用initModuleConfig（）方法，加载并解析默认子应用模块的Struts配置文件，创建ModuleConfig对象，把它存储在ServletContext中。
（5）调用initModuleMessageResources()方法，加载并初始化默认子应用模块的消息资源；创建MessageResources对象，把它存储在ServletContext中。
（6）调用initModuleDataSources（），加载并初始化默认子应用模块的数据源。
（7）调用initModulePlugins（）方法，加载并初始化默认子应用模块的所有插件。
（8）当默认子模块被成功地初始化后，如果还包括其他子应用模块，将重复流程（4）~（7），分别对其他子应用模块进行初始化。
