how to call one action from another in magento?

Question

is it possible to call one action from another in magento?

for example let us consider 2 action methods

• addAction()
• updateAction()

is it possible to call updateAction() actually when addAction() is called?

Thanks, Balan

You can do a forward, for instance :

public function addAction(){
    $this->_forward('update');
}
