So you want to return a view say an index.jsp and you dont want people to just hit the file, or you have a view but dont have any model or processing to do yet and you want to prototype,but through webwork, this is for you.

There isn't much to it really, as part of the core webwork library there is a class called webwork.action.ActionSupport.

This class is basically there for extension but we can use it here because it implements enough functionality namely doExecute among other stuff,and returns SUCCESS which is all we need.

In views.properties you do something like this:

test.action=webwork.action.ActionSupport
test.success=test.jsp

Then you too can hit your view through webwork with zero code.
