Hi Guys,

I'm trying to come to terms with ...it's working ok, I'm using 
the following for prefixes etc:

#error formatting information
errors.header=Some errors occured validating the 
form.  Please correct the following errors and try again.
errors.footer=
errors.prefix=
errors.suffix=

Which is working great when there are form validation errors, however, to get 
to the page that has the form, I use a global exception redirect as such:

        

And a tostring on org.apache.struts.action.ERROR = 
{mysite.globalerrors.database_config=[mysite.globalerrors.database_config[The 
site is not configured correctly: Required database configuration data was 
missing.]]}

Now this is all well and good, except my  tag now prints out the 
header, and footer with one prefix and suffix in between (and no error 
message) when the page first loads (from the error redirect).  When there is 
form validation errors everything works fine, however it's just that initial

Accessing properties in MessageResourcesConfig from PropertyMessageResources

[Per Lovdinger]

Info:
  




MyOwnFactory extends PropertyMessageResourcesFactory
MyOwnFactory instansiates MyOwnMessageResources
MyOwnMessageResources extends PropertyMessageResources

MyOwnConfig  extends MessageResourcesConfig
MyOwnConfig has a property called xProp


Problem:
How can my class MyOwnMessageResources access property
in MyOwnConfig ?

Is there a static method somewhere in Struts api ?


thanks in advance

This sounds like a bug to me.  Since  is still 
supported, a Bugzilla post would be appropriate and patches would be 
quite welcome!  For expediency, you might also look at using 
 and  together as an 
alternative route to achieve the same results.

Below is a logical equivalent to   Normally when one 
uses , you wouldn't put the header/footer/etc in the 
message resources but would just put them directly into the page, but 
this should be a drop in replacement since you already have that 
content in the message resources.










It might be instructive just to see if this behaves differently.

Re: direction of effort request please?

[Adam Jenkins]

Hi Eddie,

Thanks for your response.  I understand what you're saying about the redirect, 
however my primary confusion comes from the fact that  is 
printing out the error.header error.prefix error.suffix error.footer sequence 
without any error messages (in the case of the exception redirect).  My 
problem is not with the error based redirect, it's with the fact that 
 tag doesn't seem to know how it want's to handle it.  I have 
interrogated the org.apache.struts.action.ERROR object and can see that the 
redirect error is included (with the appropriate messages).  And the fact 
that the error header, prefix, suffix and footer gets printed would indicate 
that the  tag is identifying an error exists also.  But the 
actual error message (which has been validated as existing on the 
org.apache.struts.action.Error object) _only_ gets printed out for validation 
errors (not the global redirect one).  So it seems there is a conflict of 
functional requirements.  Either a global error message is printed through 
the html:errors tag, or it's not (in which case the header information also 
shouldn't be).  Does that make sense or am I completely off base?

So my main drive was to pick one or the other of these two paradigms...to 
either modify  so that it doesn't recognise the global errors, 
or to modify it so that when it does, it actually prints the message...unless 
I'm missing something and there's a third strategy?

RE: Reg. FormBean...

You are not required to implement the validate method in actionForm,
also you can turn off validation by configuring validate=false for any
action.

RE: Is there a way to auto-trim String properties in DynaForms?

[CRANFORD, CHRIS]

I did this recently.  I simply wrote a base action class which extends
the struts Action class.  Here's the code snippet:

public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,
 ActionForm form,
 HttpServletRequest request,
 HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {
  if(form!=null) {
trimFormFields(form);
  return(executeAction(mapping,form,request,response));
}

abstract ActionForward executeAction(ActionMapping mapping,
 ActionForm form,
 HttpServletRequest request,
 HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception;

protected void trimFormFields(ActionForm form)
throws Exception {
  Map properties = PropertyUtils.describe(form);
  Iterator it = properties.keySet().iterator();
  String property; Object value;
  while(it.hasNext()) {
property = ((String)it.next());
value = PropertyUtils.getSimpleProperty(form,property);
if(value!=null && value instanceof java.lang.String) { 

PropertyUtils.setSimpleProperty(form,property,((String)value).trim());
}
  }
}

So whatever common action logic I want all my actions to perform, I
placed inside of BaseAction's execute() method.  Then I extend the
BaseAction by creating an executeAction body in all subclasses.  Then
when the action is invoked, BaseAction takes care of trimming all form
properties which were defined as string types.  This has been working
quite well for us for sometime now.

Hope this helps,
Chris

Struts uses ConverterUtils to populate action forms.

1)Register the string converter which trims leading and trailing spaces
with ConvertUtils. You want to do this during application initialization
in a ServletContextListener or a Struts plugin


TrimStringConverter trimString = new TrimStringConverter();
ConvertUtils.register(trimString, String.class);



2) The class which strips the leading and trailing spaces.

public class TrimStringConverter implements Converter {
/**
 * Trims leading and trailing white spaces.
 * @param type   the type of the class
 * @param value  the value
 * @return   the trimmed string
 */
public Object convert(Class type, Object value) {
if (value == null)
return null;
else
return value.toString().trim();
}
}

Re: Accessing properties in MessageResourcesConfig from PropertyMessageResources

[Niall Pemberton]

I don't believe you can do this for a couple of reasons:

1) Although the DTD has a "className" attribute for the 
element, nothing is actually done with it and so you can't actually
configure Struts to use your own custom MessageResourcesConfig
implementation. Take a look at o.a.s.c.ConfigRuleSet - in order for a custom
MessageResourcesConfig it would have to do something with the "className"
attribute to instantiate your custom config - but it doesn't, it always
creates MessageResourcesConfig.

2) If the above issue was resovled, then the second problem  from what I can
see is that the MessageResourcesConfig isn't actually passed to the factory.
ActionServlet initializes the MessagesResources by acessing the
MessageResourcesConfig properties directly. IMO the MessageResourcesConfig
should be available to the MessageResourcesFactory.

You could create a bugzilla ticket for this but a workaround would be to
initialize your property in your custom MessageResources through a Struts
PlugIn.

Action without ActionForm

[Alistair Young]

Is there any way in struts-config.xml to specify an Action that doesn't 
require an ActionForm?
I have:

index.jsp -> link to controller Action -> decides which jsp to display 
-> start.jsp or stop.jsp

start.jsp and stop.jsp just have a form with a button that starts/stops 
a service. So I don't need an ActionForm

I tried:



  

but after the "generic" form bean is used by a previous Action I get:
Cannot retrieve definition for form bean generic on action /Start
do I need a DynaActionForm for every Action that doesn't need an 
ActionForm?

thanks,

I'm trying to come to terms with ...it's working ok, I'm using
the following for prefixes etc:

#error formatting information
errors.header=Some errors occured validating
the
form. Please correct the following errors and try again.
errors.footer=

Which is working great when there are form validation errors, however, to
get

And a tostring on org.apache.struts.action.ERROR =
{mysite.globalerrors.database_config=[mysite.globalerrors.database_config[Th

Now this is all well and good, except my  tag now prints out
the
header, and footer with one prefix and suffix in between (and no error
message) when the page first loads (from the error redirect). When there is
form validation errors everything works fine, however it's just that initial
redirect where everything goes haywire.

Does anyone know what's going on and/or how to fix?

Posting XML to a Struts app ?

Hi,

In order to post xml content to Struts, such as an .../> string from
an IE data island JavaScript component, what kind of custom extensions to
Struts  do I need, if any? The request content would consist of the mere
 tag and the stuff within. The download e.g. GET part would seem easy,
comparable to your usual file download from an Action, but how about upload
(POST) ?

For browser-independent operation, I do have an existing "standard"
implementation using html:file .

RE: direction of effort request please?

[David Suarez]

I don't know how global exceptions work in struts-config, do they add a
key value to the "Message".  If so, what would it be?  Sounds like an
exception/message is there but there is no matching description in the
resource files.  If you can figure out the key that is added in that
case (put in a debug scriptlet to see what it is set as), you should be
able to try to add a message in your resources file and have html:errors
work.

RE: How to get web.xml to ActionForm via struts?

[Scott Purcell]

Thanks David for the email.

A context-param is a top-level param (application scope) that allows one to 
define application, not servlet scope params. Anyway, I will look at the 
"commons digester" and see if that is an option.

Currently just FYI, context params are gotten via the 
ServletContext.getParameter which one can get from the GenericServlet or I 
believe Request... I do not have the javadoc open at this time.

Thanks,
Scott

Scott,

You should be able to open the web.xml with the commons digester.  Do you
have an example of your "context-param" from your web.xml and whatever "xml"
objects you nested it inside?  Is it at top-level (directly under "" or inside another component?  I've never used a context-param in
web.xml before so I would need an example to help further.

Hmm... I was under the impression that you **always** want to begin
your transaction as late as possible, not early. Sticking something
within a transactional context slows things down as some resources are
locked and can't be shared.

Well, if you implement something like a Session Facade, that's where
you will know to group several actions into a transaction.

I really don't know much about Hibernate yet, but as Chris already
said: "Hibernate is for persistence and should stay in your
persistence layer. Seems wrong that ANY part of Struts should know
about Hibernate at all.

Reloading Configuration File

[Scott Purcell]

Hello,
 
I was reading from my O'Reilly struts book last night, and it has a section on 
"Reloading The Configuration Files" pp 102. Because I am in development, I am 
constantly updating the config file and I have to keep stopping and starting my 
tomcat, I found the section interesting, but it gives no explanation on how to 
do this. It says one approach is to create a struts action that will 
reinitialize the ActionServlet? 
 
Does this mean I just need to recompile the ActionServlet that came with stuts, 
or do I need to subclass the ActionServlet and compile that. It looks like once 
you compile the ActionServlet, that it will reread the config?
 
Does anyone have any knowledge in this area?
 
Thanks,

RE: Action without ActionForm

Did you get that in your JSP file? I found that if I use the html:form tag in 
the jsp page in which I use that technique that it errors.

If that is the case, in the JSP page, just use the normal  
and see if the error goes away.

Re: Posting XML to a Struts app ?

IIRC, doing something like...

obj.open("POST", "http://www.nothing.com/page.do";, false);
obj.send(myXML);
  }



My

...will result in the XML being sent as the request's body content, which
means that you should be able to get at it through the request object. 
Just submit to an Action that doesn't use an ActionForm (to avoid
auto-population), and access the XML through request manually.  I don't
think you need any special Struts extensions or anything.

Is there any way in struts-config.xml to specify an Action that

I have:

start.jsp and stop.jsp just have a form with a button that

do I need a DynaActionForm for every Action that doesn't need an

bean:write and property editor

[delbd]

Hello
On an error jsp page, i get from a bean a collection of messages send by the 
process which lead to the error. One of the informations is the Throwable 
which produced the error.

I want the jsp to show the stack trace. I tried to use



(which call error.getThrowable())
But all i get is the throwable message, not the stacktrace.
I saw bean:write uses the propertyeditor of the property to render it's 
output.

My question is, how can i register a propertyeditor for all Throwables so i 
can implement the getAsText() method?

Thanks for help.

I can appreciate that feeling.  That's why Shale is focused on
(compared to something like classic Struts) *reducing* the number of
abstractions you have to care about:
* No more configuration beans (so developers can configure properties
 on the equivalent of an  and have it do what they really
expected).
* No more form beans (JSF takes care of the reason form beans exist in the
 first place, but lets go further and combine the "form bean" and "action"
 concepts in a thread safe request-scope object, like WebWork does it,
 as well as take advantage of JSF's support for a basic IoC framework
 using the setter injection pattern).
* No more RequestProcessor or corresponding Chain implementation (the
 application developer should think solely about responding to view tier
 events, not how their code fits in to the "big picture".
Of course, there are still use cases where you need traditional "every
request flows through this pipe" sorts of control.  But the current
servlet API provides that for us (javax.servlet.Filter) -- there is no
longer any reason for an application framework to reinvent that sort
of thing.

Dear all,

I wanna ask if there exists some kind of tool/application that simulates
user traffic to a web site.
For example a tool that lets you set up 50 users that make certain
requests, post certain form data etc
and of course profile these actions (maybe show charts, too).

Anyway, if no such tool exists, do you think it would be useful to have
one or you have other

Is it possible to harvest the form values and populate an actionform without submitting the form?

[Adam Lipscombe]

Folks,


I have a tricky little problem with Struts 1.1:

I have a form, on which there is a button that starts a wizard in a popup
modal dialog box.
The wizard behaviour depends on some of the values that have already been
entered in the parent form, and when it finishes the parent form is further
populated.


Rather than pass the form values as HTTP params to the wizard, I elected to
perform the backend processing prior to starting the wizard. This ensures
that all the necessary values are computed correctly and would normally be
done by submitting the parent page form. 

But, the backend processing is invoked by the wizard calling a URL as part
of its initialisation. The parent form is not submitted, hence the values
from the parent form are not transferred to the actionform prior to the
backend processing being invoked.


Is there anyway round this? Is it possible to harvest the parent form values
explicitly to ensure that the actionform is populated?


TIA - Adam Lipscombe

Re: struts and intelli j

You have to associate the DTD's URL to a local copy of the file (or at
least that's how I do it).  You can do this through the IDE Settings
(I think the location differs depending on which version you're
using).  In this case, you'd map
"http://struts.apache.org/dtds/struts-config_1_1.dtd"; to the struts
config DTD file.  A copy of this file is in the "lib" directory of
your Struts 1.1 download.

Why do you choose to have it ignored?  You can point it to an actual

get better XML support from IntelliJ, such as code completion and

Remove Tiles Component

having read them I still can't figure out how to solve my problem.

At current I'm using:

layout file for it.

This is my current tiles-def file:
 
   
   
 

I'd like to be able to add an extra line to the above base definition
(.pub.welcome) along the lines of:
 
... and then be able to insert that page within a number of my

I've tried using  but it doesn't work. :-(

Re: Is it possible to harvest the form values and populate an actionform without submitting the form?

[Frank W. Zammetti]

I think some scripting would be in order...

If I understand correctly... when the button on your parent form is
clicked, a modal dialog is opened and the URL you tell that dialog to
display is actually an Action that does some initialization.  Is that
correct?

Assuming it is... what I would do is instead of putting your
initialization URL in there, instead put a, shall we say,
"pre-initialization" URL.  This would return a page with nothing but a
Javascript function and a form with all hidden fields.  The function would
be called in response to the onLoad even.  The function would grab the
form elements you need from the parent form (via window.opener syntax),
populate the form on that page, and then submit the form to your real
initialization Actino.  You would then have the elements from the parent
you need to do your initialization, and THEN display the first page of the
wizard to the user.

Another option (maybe) to save the first trip to the server... I don't
remember off the top of my head if you can write the document in a modal
dialog like you can a typical popup window (I'm thinking not, but I'm not
sure).  If you CAN do that, than instead of calling on the server to do
the pre-initialization, you can dynamically write out the document via
Javascript.  If that isn't possible though, then the first approach would
still work.

Does that sound like something that might work in your scenario?

RE: Is it possible to harvest the form values and populate an act ionform without submitting the form?

[Paul McCulloch]

Could the button on your parent submit the form to the backend with a new
popup windows defined as the "target" attribute (of the html form)? That way
your main form values are sent to the backend, but the results (i.e. your
wizard) is shown in the popup window.

Well, a facade is supposed to be a black box, so you shouldn't have to, 
for example, do an EJB lookup, to use the facade. It's supposed to be 
easily accessible from any implementations of the next higher layer (in 
other words, it makes stuff pluggable).

By the way, I would also like to say that adding layers and decoupling, 
a widely used and useful technique, doesn't always work or make sense. 
Rick Reumann was arguing not that long ago on another thread that 
sometimes trying to get HTTP knowledge out of web app components is more 
trouble than it's worth. Well, in similar vein, I have had success 
building a (graphical) interface basically right on top of a network 
protocol (I'm not speaking of HTTP in this case though). Sometimes an 
event-driven interface (dialogs that react to packet arrivals) is just 
the easiest and fastest way to go. I still think you should exercise 
your brain (what happens when I do/don't want EJB here anymore, what 
happens when I introduce a different type of interface, what happens 
when I change persistence techniques, what happens when I change from a 
stateless to a stateful protocol, what happens when I switch from Struts 
to Webwork  >:o , etc.), but I avoid adding abstractions until 
prototyping/whiteboarding fleshes out the need for them. Always Be 
Prototyping! You'll always have a working version of your app that way, 
and your best design will actually come from having tried all the 
runners-up, rather than just your imagination.

Subject: Re: Struts and EJB integration question?

 

I think it depends on your service locator design and API. The goals are
ease of maintenance, reusability/decoupling and performance. Is the
extra layer going to facilitate reuse of your service locator/EJBs? If
so then it's probably worth it because it probably won't cost much in
terms of maintenance and performance (depends on your infrastructure of
course). Might you have other services that don't require the service
locator API or a different service locator API? If that's the case,
again, you'd probably want to have Struts talk to a "manager layer"
component (or as Robert Taylor suggests -- an app-specific delegate
right in front of the manager layer component), and let this component
find and use services directly, etc. This shields Struts from disparate
APIs.

Frank, 

Your understanding of my problem is spot on.
The first approach you suggest sounds good and appropriate -  I will give it
a go. 

Many thanks...

Subject: Re: Is it possible to harvest the form values and populate an


I think some scripting would be in order...

If I understand correctly... when the button on your parent form is clicked,
a modal dialog is opened and the URL you tell that dialog to display is
actually an Action that does some initialization.  Is that correct?

Assuming it is... what I would do is instead of putting your initialization
URL in there, instead put a, shall we say, "pre-initialization" URL.  This
would return a page with nothing but a Javascript function and a form with
all hidden fields.  The function would be called in response to the onLoad
even.  The function would grab the form elements you need from the parent
form (via window.opener syntax), populate the form on that page, and then
submit the form to your real initialization Actino.  You would then have the
elements from the parent you need to do your initialization, and THEN
display the first page of the wizard to the user.

Another option (maybe) to save the first trip to the server... I don't
remember off the top of my head if you can write the document in a modal
dialog like you can a typical popup window (I'm thinking not, but I'm not
sure).  If you CAN do that, than instead of calling on the server to do the
pre-initialization, you can dynamically write out the document via
Javascript.  If that isn't possible though, then the first approach would
still work.

Does that sound like something that might work in your scenario?

Validator date problem

[Michael Oliver]

I have read the Validator User Guide as well as chapter 12 in Struts In
Action.

I am trying to get a validator to validate a date field with no success.
When I post the form with "02/30/2005" or "02/33/2005" or "02/30/xyz"
it goes through without catching the bad date.

If however I do not put a 'name' field entry or a date entry at all, I
do get the javascript alert "required field" as expected.

Server side debugging, during the SaveAssignmentForm action the
AssignmentForm.validate() is called and the ActionErrors errs value is
not null which tells me it tried to validate, but there are no messages.


I have used SimpleDateFormat.parse("02/30/2005") in a separate test
script and it throws an exception as expected.

Using Struts 1.1

Snippets from my sources...

public class AssignmentForm extends ValidatorActionForm {

Re: Reloading Configuration File

Scott,

I haven't looked at that section lately, but I would imagine you can handle
this by creating a separate action (e.g., ReloadAction) which just calls
the init method of the ActionServlet.

Whenever you'd like to reload the config file, then just go to the jsp that
you've mapped for ReloadAction, and then that ought to do the trick.

Re-initialize ActionServlet Help

[Scott Purcell]

Hello,
I posted this earlier today and could really use some help here. As I am 
developing I have to keep stopping and re-starting my tomcat, and it is killing 
me. I am on Tomcat 4.0xxx and don't have time to go to 5, where I think 
individual web-apps can be restarted.

Anyway, if anyone knows of any way to reinitialize the ActionServlet to re-read 
the struts-config.xml file, please, please let me know.

Thanks,
Scott

RE: Validator date problem

[Joe Hertz]

If you want the validator to pick it up based on the Form name (as opposed
to the Action Path name) you should use a ValidatorForm instead of a
ValidatorActionForm.

You might need to use datePatternStrict too. There's some (or used to be
anyway) some weirdness with the javascript not catching it unless you used
it.

Which version of Struts is better for an old WebSphere?

[Alejandro Escalante Medina]

Thanks in advance for your help.

I need to build a web application for an old release of WebSphere
Application Server (3.5) which only covers servlet 2.2 and JSP 1.1
specification.

I read on the docs that Struts only needs servlet 2.2 specification,
but I wanted to ask anyway if there's any particular advice for this
environment.

I wonder what version of Struts is best suited for this environment.

looks like once you compile the ActionServlet, that it will reread the
config?

Does anyone have any knowledge in this area?

RE: Reloading Configuration File

[Frank W. Zammetti]

I've never tried this, but... is it as simple as calling
getServlet().init() in your Action?  getServlet() returns an instance of
the ActionServlet that is associated with the Action, and init() is
public, so...

Something though tells me this either (a) won't work at all or (b) is a
Very Bad Thing(tm) for one reason or another.

RE: Reloading Configuration File

[Jerry Tan]

Scott,

This is a very interesting question:

I would start off with a new action, e.g., ReloadAction:

# # #

package com.what.ever.reload;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import org.apache.struts.action.Action;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForward;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet;

public final class ReloadAction extends Action implements ReloadK {

  /* reload struts configuration files */
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,
 ActionForm form,
 HttpServletRequest request,
 HttpServletResponse response) throws
Exception {


// get handle to ActionServlet
ActionServlet servlet = getServlet();

// call init to force re-initialization
servlet.init();

// continue (constant is defined in the ReloadK interface)
return mapping.findForward(CONTINUE);

}

}


# # #

Then map a jsp that calls this action, and just go to that page whenever
you'd like to reload the config files.

But there's one small caveat here: within the init method for ActionServlet
, there are two calls that freeze the ModuleConfig.

So if the type of changes you actually want to make on the fly would depend
on the configuration having not being frozen, however, then you're probably
better off subclassing ActionServlet, and then commenting out these two
lines that call the freeze method of ModuleConfig.

The snippet where this first occurs is as follows (see the call to freeze
at the end):

# # #

  // Initialize modules as needed
   ModuleConfig moduleConfig = initModuleConfig("", config);
   initModuleMessageResources(moduleConfig);
   initModuleDataSources(moduleConfig);
   initModulePlugIns(moduleConfig);
   moduleConfig.freeze();

# # #

Be sure to change your web.xml to load this new ActionServlet subclass
instead (rather than the default).

Thanks for the info Jerry,

I get it ... but I am having trouble actually accomplishing this task.
Since the ActionServlet is a "javax.http.servlet" I am not sure how to call
its its init?

The class is "org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet" but I am uncertain
how to init this thing?

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Scott

Scott,

I haven't looked at that section lately, but I would imagine you can handle
this by creating a separate action (e.g., ReloadAction) which just calls
the init method of the ActionServlet.

Whenever you'd like to reload the config file, then just go to the jsp that
you've mapped for ReloadAction, and then that ought to do the trick.

newbie question on client-side validation

[Jennifer Ball]

Hello,
I am having trouble creating the client-side JavaScript for a custom 
validator.  Basically, the validator checks if the user input matches 
one of a set of 3 strings.  I've written the server-side code but need 
help with the JavaScript.

I have looked at the standard validator-rules.xml file for examples, but 
I still have questions.  For example, the validateMask function creates 
a new Mask object, but I don't see where this constructor is located and 
what exactly it does.

I've searched for documentation on this topic, but all materials I've 
found have glossed over the topic.  Could someone give me a brief 
explanation or point me to one?

thanks,
Jennifer

problem in custom validation method

[Sivakumar Santharam]

I am using struts 1.2.4 I created a new custom validation method in a 
validator class. I added a new validation rule to the validator-rules.xml file 
and new validation definitions to the validation.xml file. I get the following 
error when the custome validation method is called. When I tried to debug by 
setting a debug point in the validation method, it didn't stop. I don't have a

Popup Windows Problems?

[Scott Purcell]

Hello,
 
All has been going well in my Struts app, then I ran into an issue dealing with 
a popup window. 
 
I am popping up a little window 500 x 300 and showing a upload File box. But 
when I submit the form, I get all kinds of BEAN errors in the log file?
 
I do not see what is different between popup window and a normal main window?
 
Is there a problem when working in popup windows? Anyone ever experience this?
 
Thanks,

It's a separate request.  Without knowing anything else, I would guess that
you're putting things in request scope, then when you open a new window, the
things you expect to be there, aren't.

Try putting the "missing" bean into session scope, and see if the problem
goes away.

If not, then you'll need to post some of your code and log messages.

Re: direction of effort request please?

[Niall Pemberton]

Showing whats stored under the errors key proves nothing - its actually the
 tag that loads the message from the message resources. What
you see under the errors key is an ActionMessages object which contains an
ActionMessage. ActionMessage contains the key to the message in the message
resources (mysite.globalerrors.database_config in your case) plus any
replacement arguments. Now it just so happens that the exception handler
passes the "message" from the exception as an argument, but you still need
to have a message for that key in your application resources. Probably
something that looks like this...

mysite.globalerrors.database_config={0}

.. so that it basically just displays the exception's message which was
passed as the argument.

Niall

P.S. Please don't cross-post messages to more than one list. It gets
confusing when people are replying to the same message on different lists -
especially for people not subscribed to both. There are guidelines here for
the mailing lists:

Re: problem in custom validation method

[Bill Siggelkow]

It looks like to me that the Validator is not finding your method 
definition. Recheck the declaration in the validator-rules.xml file. 
The signature and class name there must match your actual class and 
method exactly.

RE: Reloading Configuration File

[Mark Benussi]

This action "went" in Struts 1.2 and I never found a replacement. Any ideas
anyone?

Scott,

I haven't looked at that section lately, but I would imagine you can handle
this by creating a separate action (e.g., ReloadAction) which just calls
the init method of the ActionServlet.

Whenever you'd like to reload the config file, then just go to the jsp that
you've mapped for ReloadAction, and then that ought to do the trick.

Hello,

I was reading from my O'Reilly struts book last night, and it has a section
on "Reloading The Configuration Files" pp 102. Because I am in development,
I am constantly updating the config file and I have to keep stopping and
starting my tomcat, I found the section interesting, but it gives no
explanation on how to do this. It says one approach is to create a struts
action that will reinitialize the ActionServlet?

Does this mean I just need to recompile the ActionServlet that came with
stuts, or do I need to subclass the ActionServlet and compile that. It
looks like once you compile the ActionServlet, that it will reread the
config?

Does anyone have any knowledge in this area?

Thanks,

Re: Remove Tiles Component

[Tim Christopher]

I think the variable (msgs) needs to be passed through by the layout
page.  I think this allows the other JSP inserted the same layout page
to access the variable.

I could easily be wrong about that but hopefully someone with more
Tiles knowledge than me can prove me right / wrong

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking.  The discussion you quoted seems
to start from a false premise:  that you have to stop and start Tomcat to
get config changes to take effect.

All you have to do is reload the individual webapp that had changes.  I do
it with 'ant reload'.  (Tomcat ships with Ant tasks that interact with its
manager app.)  You can also use the HTML version of the manager app-- click
reload, and you're done.

Re: problem in custom validation method

The validation method signatures in Struts 1.2 changed from ActionErrors to
ActionMessages, but it looks like you're trying to use a Struts 1.1 format
method with Struts 1.2.

Try changing your method signature to use ActionMessages.

Geez, thanks Niall. I've been posting custom validation examples that

Struts Or Spring

[M Murali]

We are kind of middle of deciding go to with which framework.Can some one help. 
On high level, we have an application where data gets from webservices and is 
displayed to user thru JSP.  the webservices access is done thru Axis and the 
proxy class generated are used on JSP side. Each proxy class holds data 
specific to businesslogic. In order to access these data , it looks like we 
need to create a form bean exactly to match with proxy class for accessing at 
JSP.  Is there any way around creating a formbean for each dataclass?? 

for example: in JSP we have

<%

 LineInfo[]  infos = LineBean.GetAllLines();

%>



<% for (int = 0;  i < infos.length; i++) %{>





 <% }%>>



 

how can this be done using struts. Do we need to create a  LineInfoFormBean ?? 
THe LineInfo is a proxy generated data class, if we have to create a FormBean 
for each dataclass, then it would be very in efficient and this would be 
duplicate of get/set from data class. Is is possible??   I heard the same can 
be easily using Spring.  Any ideas, which one is best suits here.

Thanks in advance.

RE: Remove Tiles Component

[David G. Friedman]

Ben,

Why not put "msgs" in your main template but leave it equal to the value "".
That way, nothing will show up in the main template but when you extend it
and change the "msgs" component depending on what you need to display in
that location of your output. You would end up with something like this:

In tiles-def.xml:






Then, extend it for various output pages and either define msgs to show
something or leave it blank.  For example, your error page might be this
template:




Your login page definition might change the "content" page to login.jsp like
so:




And so forth for each respective "page" you wish to show.  Essentially, you
will be including components into templates instead of fixing this into each
JSP directly.  The result gives you an easier time changing things (just
update tiles-defs.xml) when you need to modify your site's look and feel.

Regards,
David

validatorForms and deprecated actionerrors

  Is there a better way to do this:
  ActionErrors errors = myForm.validate(mapping,
  request);
  if(!errors.isEmpty()) {
  saveErrors(request, errors);
  return mapping.findForward("failure");
  }
  
  I've got like 1000's of deprecation warnings now.

I agree with Wendy -- you can do this in any number of ways -- an Ant 
task, or you can go to http://localhost:8080/manager/html  and do it 
that way. My understanding is that the reload action was dropped 
because it sometimes left things in an unpredictable state.

I think the only call in your code that is deprecated is:
saveErrors(request, errors);
The replacement method that takes ActionMessages (now the parent class 
of ActionErrors) is in the Action but your code doesn't pick it up 
because it uses the more specific deprecated saveErrors. When the 
deprecated method is removed (and I have no idea when that will be) 
from Action, the warnings will go away and your code will continue to 
function w/o modification (at least respect to this call). There are 
probably some other ways to avoid the error, (for example you could do 
the same thing that saveErrors is doing) but that would be a worse 
solution IMO.
