Liferay Hook calling extension method - liferay

Question

I have new action in a liferay hook which ideally will be calling methods created in an extension. But at run time when executing the action, it throws the exception
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException
for the methods created in the extension.
Has anybody created similar action in liferay hook? if so, what was the solution for this problem if encountered?
Here is my code:
public class ExampleStrutsAction extends BaseStrutsAction {
public String execute( HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
String name = ParamUtil.get(request, "name", "World");
ThemeDisplay themeDisplay= (ThemeDisplay) request.getAttribute(WebKeys.THEME_DISPLAY);
BSCDynamicDataListLocalServiceUtil.cloneDynamicDataListPageInSuborganization(the‌​meDisplay, name);
return "/portal/sample.jsp";
}
}

Try below code,
hook.xml
<hook>
<portal-properties>portal.properties</portal-properties>
<language-properties>
content/Language.properties
</language-properties>
<custom-jsp-dir>/META-INF/custom_jsps</custom-jsp-dir>
<struts-action>
<struts-action-path>/my_account/edit_user</struts-action-path>
<struts-action-impl>com.test.hook.action.EditUserAction</struts-action-impl>
</struts-action>
<struts-action>
<struts-action-path>/users_admin/edit_user</struts-action-path>
<struts-action-impl>com.test.hook.action.EditUserAction</struts-action-impl>
</struts-action>
</hook>
EditUserAction class
public class EditUserAction extends BaseStrutsPortletAction
{
#Override
public void processAction(final StrutsPortletAction originalStrutsPortletAction, final PortletConfig portletConfig,
final ActionRequest actionRequest, final ActionResponse actionResponse) throws Exception
{
// add your custom code
originalStrutsPortletAction.processAction(portletConfig, actionRequest, actionResponse);
}
#Override
public String render(final StrutsPortletAction originalStrutsPortletAction, final PortletConfig portletConfig, final RenderRequest renderRequest,
final RenderResponse renderResponse) throws Exception
{
//add your custom code
return originalStrutsPortletAction.render(portletConfig, renderRequest, renderResponse);
}
}
I have created above hook for EditUserAction in Control Panel
Hope it helps you!!
