in .xml file

 <action name="GeneratePdf" class="hris.report.action.GeneratePdf"> <result name="success" type="stream"> <param name="contentType">application/pdf</param> <param name="inputName">inputStream</param> <param name="contentDisposition">inline;filename="test.pdf"</param> <param name="bufferSize">1024</param> </result> </action>
