xml-configuration

In Struts 2, I am trying to skip validation on method base on XML configuration. As per my application I can not use annotation. So I cannot use @SkipValidation annotation. Is there any alternative for this? I have one action class which has five methods create , update , delete , search , and view . I want to validate only two methods create and update . You should configure in the struts.xml package with interceptors <interceptors> <interceptor-stack name="validateWorkflowStack"> <interceptor-ref name="basicStack"/> <!-- ... whatever interceptors --> <interceptor-ref name="validation">

So, is possible to mix both configurations instead of use only one of those? All I want is to keep all the configuration by Annotations and read the table by a XML. Is it possible? Thanks a lot. Edit: How will be the hbm.xml file? I have this one: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD 3.0//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd"> <hibernate-mapping> <class name="MyData" table="MyTable" > </class> </hibernate-mapping> And don´t compile the dtd. viktor Hibernate docs (latest) Note that you can mix

I'm using Struts 2.3.14.2 jars, but when I created the simple application, I'm getting the following error/exception. I almost did everything perfectly. I added almost all jars in the class path. But still getting this exception. Am I missing something ?
