<P>
An <strong>ActionForward</strong> represents a destination to which the
controller servlet, <code>ActionServlet</code>, might be directed to
perform a <code>RequestDispatcher.forward()</code> or
<code>HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect()</code> to, as a result of
processing activities of an <code>Action</code> class. Instances of this
class may be created dynamically as necessary, or configured in association
with an <code>ActionMapping</code> instance for named lookup of potentially
multiple destinations for a particular mapping instance.
<p>
An <code>ActionForward</code> has the following minimal set of properties.
Additional properties can be provided as needed by subclassses.
<ul>
<li><strong>contextRelative</strong> - Should the <code>path</code>
value be interpreted as context-relative (instead of
module-relative, if it starts with a '/' character? [false]</li>
<li><strong>name</strong> - Logical name by which this instance may be
looked up in relationship to a particular <code>ActionMapping</code>.
</li>
<li><strong>path</strong> - Module-relative or context-relative URI to
which control should be forwarded, or an absolute or relative URI to
which control should be redirected.</li>
<li><strong>redirect</strong> - Set to <code>true</code> if the controller
servlet should call <code>HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect()</code>
on the associated path; otherwise <code>false</code>. [false]</li>
</ul>
<p>Since Struts 1.1 this class extends <code>ForwardConfig</code>
and inherits the <code>contextRelative</code> property.
<p><strong>NOTE</strong> - This class would have been deprecated and
replaced by <code>org.apache.struts.config.ForwardConfig</code> except
for the fact that it is part of the public API that existing applications
are using.</p>
