    The ActionServlet actually delegates the request processing job to it’s RequestProcessor.

    When a request arrives, either the doGet or the doPost method of the action servlet is invoked. Any of these method will call the action servlet’s process method which inturn calls the request processor’s process method. And that’s where everything happen, roughly as follows –

    1. Find the ActionMapping for current request.
    2. Get (may be also create) the ActionForm instance.
    3. Populate the form.
    4. Validate the form.
    5. Get (create) the Action instance.
    6. Execute the action.
    7. And finally either forward or redirect.
