/**
 * 
 * The abstract base class for our Struts 2 GXP result type implementation. It
 * outputs GXP, and pulls GXP parameters from Struts 2's value stack. Implementing
 * classes have to:
 * 
 *
 * 
 * Implement execute(ActionInvocation), which must instruct the
 * GXP to write itself to the output stream. See {@link GxpResult} for a
 * sample implementation.
 * Add a public static final field DEFAULT_PARAM with
 * the value 'gxpName'. Struts 2 needs this to set the name of your
 * template into this object.
 * 
 *
 * If you want to use instantiated GXPs (using the nested
 * {@code Interface}), you can set the use{@code useInstances} parameter to
 * {@code true}:
 * 
 *
 *  *     <result-types>
 *       <result-type name="gxp" class="org.apache.struts2.views.gxp.GxpResult">
 *         <param name="useInstances">true</param>
 *       </result-type>
 *     </result-types>
 * 
 *
 * 
 * This means that Struts 2 will attempt to instantiate the {@code Interface}
 * using the {@link com.opensymphony.xwork2.ObjectFactory}. If
 * com.google.webwork.GuiceWebWorkIntegrationModule is installed, or
 * com.google.webwork.ContainerObjectFactory is set as the static
 * {@code ObjectFactory} instance, then Guice will be used to instantiate the
 * GXP instance; otherwise, only GXPs with no constructor parameters will work.
