Actions

Action implementation with Input and Output

Action implementation with DI (no need to extend anything)

Action Implementation with method parameters (no need for Input or DI)

Action implementation with zero coupling (the web context is injected as Java Collections)

http://www.mysite.com/HelloMentawai.sayHi.mtw => Forward to /HelloMentawai/sayHi.jsp
