Interface ActionProxy

All Known Implementing Classes:
DefaultActionProxy, MockActionProxy, StrutsActionProxy
public interface ActionProxy
ActionProxy is an extra layer between XWork and the action so that different proxies are possible.

An example of this would be a remote proxy, where the layer between XWork and the action might be RMI or SOAP.
