Sure, that's what the <include> element is for. Most xwork.xml files <xwork> <include file="webwork-default.xml"/> <include file="config-browser.xml"/> <package name="default" extends="webwork-default"> .... </package> <include file="other.xml"/> </xwork> This tells it to load the webwork-default.xml from the webwork jar file You can put your own <include> in your xwork.xml interchangeably with @see com.opensymphony.xwork.config.ConfigurationManager |
