[Opensource] Struts transaction token

[Peter A. J. Pilgrim]

Hi

Did you somebody already check into Expresso CVS compatible changes
that allowed a controller to generate and reset transaction tokens?

What was the issue there? The actual methods are part of the
`org.apache.struts.action.Action'

void saveToken( HttpServletRequest request )
void resetToken( HttpServletRequest request )
boolean isTokenValid( HttpServletRequest request )

Since the `com.jcorporate.expresso.core.controller.Controller'
is a direct subclass of a Struts `Action', it would be trival
to create equivalent methods.

void saveToken( ControllerRequest req )
  throws ControllerException
void resetToken( ControllerRequest req )
  throws ControllerException
boolean isTokenValid( ControllerRequest req )
  throws ControllerException

The only problem is that Controller can be run outside
a webapp environment, hence I could throw an Exception
or silent write dummy methods in "ControllerRequest.java"
and the real code would appear "ServletControllerRequest.java"

Has any one written this code? If not I will add this tomorrow night
because it trival.
