Sun Identity Manager Service Provider 8.1 Deployment

Specifying an Action Type

The type parameter defines the class that performs the action. Some of the default actions refer to a Struts-defined subclass of the org.apache.struts.action.Action class. The following subclasses are provided with the sample user pages.

Class Name 

Description 

ProcessFormAction 

Allows access to the Identity Manager forms engine. This action can take a view handler class, a form name, and a page processor class (in that order) as parameters. See Specifying an Action Type for more information.

SelfServiceProcessFormAction 

A subclass of ProcessFormAction that is used for self-service operations, such as changing passwords or user IDs. 

RelayAction 

Redirects the client to a page after the user has acknowledged a successful operation result, such as a successful password change. Since all confirmation pages use a single content tile (OperationResult.jsp), an action forward name is set in a hidden field when the content tile is generated. See OperationResult Relay Definition for more information.

LogoutAction 

Invalidates the current user session.
