getBreadcrumbs

public java.util.List getBreadcrumbs()
Returns a list of breadcrumbs ending with the current action.

The current action is usually the last breadcrumb, represented by text (rather than a link) which is an i18n version of the action name. The action's parent is determined in one of the following ways (given that there is no other convention for the determination of an action's place in the hierachy) :

  1. Action class - hardcoded class test, least scalable
  2. Action package - hardcoded string test, scalable but only reliable if classes in correct location
  3. Action interface - existing interfaces can be used, but adding interfaces just for this is ugly (ask CM)
  4. Action URL - from xwork (?) or servlet request URL, this is valid in that the URL hierarchy is the one we expose to the user, so a crumb path that matches it is intuitive.
  5. Action method - getParentBreadcrumb applied to a concrete or abstract Action gives control to the action itself.

This method is currently a hack due to our ugly action hierarchy. The logic for all this were in the velocity templates and have been centralized in one location, here. It should be cleaned up later on (no dependency on request URL or package name).

Returns:
a list of breadcrumbs ending with the current action
