Why would we want to create Action objects from the Spring configuration

If an application makes extensive use of Spring, it can be convenient to manage all the classes in one location – the Spring configuration. Remember, Actions do not need to implement a special interface. Actions can also be POJOs that are not tied to Struts or the web-layer in any fashion.

We might also want to apply more complex AOP or Spring-enabled technologies, such as Acegi, to our Action objects.
