I have an action that receives some parameters from user (e.g. date). This action produces many different reports, so it has many different methods. I need to tune those parameters (set a time to midnight) before every method. The prepare
method is executed before parameters are bound. Is there any other interceptor or any other convention that allows me to do that?
Use the <interceptor-ref name="paramsPrepareParamsStack"/>
<!-- An example of the params-prepare-params trick. This stack is exactly the same as the defaultStack, except that it includes one extra interceptor before the prepare interceptor: the params interceptor. This is useful for when you wish to apply parameters directly to an object that you wish to load externally (such as a DAO or database or service layer), but can't load that object until at least the ID parameter has been loaded. By loading the parameters twice, you can retrieve the object in the prepare() method, allowing the second params interceptor to apply the values on the object. -->
If you are using the Convention Plugin apply it on action
@Action(value="action1", interceptorRefs=@InterceptorRef("paramsPrepareParamsStack"))
