Description

Joe. In file PageFilter.java (about line 52) after executing this line

// parse data into Page object (or continue as normal if Page not parseable)
Page page = parsePage(request, response, chain);

some of the attributes of the request object changes. One of them is _servletPath and its value is set to empty String "". This causes that the method public Decorator getDecorator( HttpServletRequest request, Page page ) in file ConfigDecoratorMapper.java fails finding a pattern. In the first line of this method I see this line:

String thisPath = request.getServletPath();

So thisPath is the emptyString.

This causes that only the /* and * patterns works when using struts2 + sitemesh.

Are you agree with me?

Thanks.
