Direct Known Subclasses:

CoCApplicationManager, MultiApplicationManager, ScriptApplicationManager

public abstract class ApplicationManager
extends java.lang.Object

The central abstract base manager which controls actions, filters, locales and data lists. You can use this class to register actions and filters through the loadActions() method. You can use this class to specify supported locales through the loadLocales() method. You can use this class to manage the data list loading process. You can use this class to initialize anything for your web application.

configureActions

public void configureActions(java.lang.String packageName)

Parameters:

packageName -
