Getting value without creating object in struts2

I am working on a struts2 application. I have an auto generated field in my action class and I am getting its value in a String variable. Now, after returing "SUCCESS" by this action class, struts.xml is routed to open a jsp page (say abc.jsp). I want to get that String variable (having auto generated field value) at my jsp page without creating object of action class in my jsp. Please suggest.

To add to krosenvold's answer properties from your action class are fetched using the s:property tag, so if you have a getter named getSpecialString you'd fetch it like this :

<s:property value="specialString" />

The action class is always created in struts2. You will still have the same instance present when the abc.jsp renders, so you do not have to create a new instance of the action class. This is fairly central to how struts2 works.

So using regular ognl you can access all getters/setters in the controller when the jsp executes (unless you have used a ServletRedirectResult, which is slightly different)
