## org.apache.struts2.interceptor
Class MessageStoreInterceptor

    java.lang.Object
      com.opensymphony.xwork2.interceptor.AbstractInterceptor
          org.apache.struts2.interceptor.MessageStoreInterceptor

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Interceptor, Serializable

    public class MessageStoreInterceptor

extends AbstractInterceptor

An interceptor to store a `ValidationAware` action's messages / errors and field errors into HTTP Session, such that it will be retrievable at a later stage. This allows the action's message / errors and field errors to be available longer that just the particular HTTP request. If no session exists, nothing will be stored and can be retrieved later. In other terms, the application is responsible to open the session.

In the 'STORE' mode, the interceptor will store the `ValidationAware` action's message / errors and field errors into HTTP session.

In the 'RETRIEVE' mode, the interceptor will retrieve the stored action's message / errors and field errors and put them back into the `ValidationAware` action.

In the 'AUTOMATIC' mode, the interceptor will always retrieve the stored action's message / errors and field errors and put them back into the `ValidationAware` action, and after Action execution, if the `Result` is an instance of `ServletRedirectResult`, the action's message / errors and field errors into automatically be stored in the HTTP session..

The interceptor does nothing in the 'NONE' mode, which is the default.

The operation mode could be switched using :-

1] Setting the iterceptor parameter eg.

       <action name="submitApplication" ...>
          <interceptor-ref name="store">
             <param name="operationMode">STORE</param>
          </interceptor-ref>
          <interceptor-ref name="defaultStack" />
          ....
       </action>

2] Through request parameter (allowRequestParameterSwitch must be 'true' which is the default)

       // the request will have the operation mode in 'STORE'
       http://localhost:8080/context/submitApplication.action?operationMode=STORE

- allowRequestParameterSwitch - To enable request parameter that could switch the operation mode of this interceptor.
- requestParameterSwitch - The request parameter that will indicate what mode this interceptor is in.
- operationMode - The operation mode this interceptor should be in (either 'STORE', 'RETRIEVE', 'AUTOMATIC', or 'NONE'). 'NONE' being the default.

The following method could be overriden :-

- getRequestOperationMode - get the operation mode of this interceptor based on the request parameters
- mergeCollection - merge two collections
- mergeMap - merge two map

     <action name="submitApplication" ....>
        <interceptor-ref name="store">
          <param name="operationMode">STORE</param>
        </interceptor-ref>
        <interceptor-ref name="defaultStack" />
        <result name="input" type="redirect">applicationFailed.action</result>
        <result type="dispatcher">applicationSuccess.jsp</result>
     </action>

     <action name="applicationFailed" ....>
        <interceptor-ref name="store">
           <param name="operationMode">RETRIEVE</param>
        </interceptor-ref>
        <result>applicationFailed.jsp</result>
     </action>

With the example above, 'submitApplication.action' will have the action messages / errors / field errors stored in the HTTP Session. Later when needed, (in this case, when 'applicationFailed.action' is fired, it will get the action messages / errors / field errors stored in the HTTP Session and put them back into the action.
