sharing message resources with jstl
I have three message resources defined in struts-config.xml: In web.xml, I define a context parameter as follows, javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.fmt.localizationContext ApplicationMessageResources Questions: (1). Can I define more than message resources in context param? (2). In jsp, how do I access these three message resources? I am using JBoss 4.1 and Struts 1.2.4. Levy Johnson _ Dont just search. Find.

Referencing Forms from Dual Actions
I have some code where an action is called in an and in an as a value for the src attribute of the tag. Also, I have extended the ImageTag class or to mine some other values regarding the image, color, font, etc., because I intend to use the action which is the value of the src attribute to build the button on the fly to match whatever the name of the Button is, e.g. "Submit.gif". My only question is: Is there any reason why the action which gets the image as the value of the src attribute cannot access the values of the form needed to build the button if it does not already exist? Thanks! The code will look something like the following: FIRST NAME LAST NAME EMAIL font="Broadway" size="16" button="true" src="resource.do?file_type=gif&file_name=SUBMIT.gif"/> font="Broadway" size="16" button="true" src="resource.do?file_type=gif&file_name=CLEAR.gif"/> font="Broadway" size="16" button="true" src="resource.do?file_type=gif&file_name=CANCEL.gif"/> font="Broadway" size="16" button="true" src="resource.do?file_type=gif&file_name=RESET.gif"/> So, I want the resource.do action class to mine the buttonFrom action form. One thing is for sure, the logON.do action must precede the resource.do action, because it creates the text the browser uses to call the second action. Seems like it should work fine to me. It involves enough work that I thought I would run it by you chiefs and indians first. Thanks for any pointers.

Velocity in Struts2
Hello, I have scratched my head and googled this for hours to no avail, so maybe you folks can give me a hand. I am trying to migrate a Struts1 site to Struts2 (from maven, struts-core 2.0.6). So far everything is fine, except for Velocity (verison 1.4). The Action is being called and returning successfully, the correct Velocity template is being loaded and parsed, but the Action is no where to be found for the Velocity template. In http://cwiki.apache.org/WW/velocity.html it states that the Action's properties will be present for the template context, along with other help variables (i.e. $stack, $action, etc ). My Velocity template has nothing, just $struts.valueStack in the request attributes. Seems like there is a final step missing that processes the Action into the Velocity context? The entire site is already using Velocity, so migrating to Freemaker is not really an option at this time. thanks, Michael
Re: Velocity in Struts2
The problem was in my spring config. I was proxying the Action with the TransactionProxyFactoryBean. When that was removed (juggling the Hibernate Session management somewhere else) the Action was correctly set into the Velocity context.

RE: Maintaining form data across pages...
I fear that some of this contains a misunderstanding at a deeper
level. You can control all this by coding what you want in the reset()
method. The actual code (in part) is as follows:
form.setServlet(this.servlet);
form.reset(mapping, request);
if (mapping.getMultipartClass() != null) {
request.setAttribute(Globals.MULTIPART_KEY,
mapping.getMultipartClass());
}
RequestUtils.populate(form, mapping.getPrefix(), mapping.getSuffix(),
request);
The RequestUtils code (in part) follows:
while (names.hasMoreElements()) {
String name = (String) names.nextElement();
String stripped = name;
if (prefix != null) {
if (!stripped.startsWith(prefix)) {
continue;
}
stripped = stripped.substring(prefix.length());
}
if (suffix != null) {
if (!stripped.endsWith(suffix)) {
continue;
}
stripped = stripped.substring(0, stripped.length() -
suffix.length());
}
if (isMultipart) {
properties.put(stripped, multipartParameters.get(name));
} else {
properties.put(stripped, request.getParameterValues(name));
}
}
// Set the corresponding properties of our bean
try {
BeanUtils.populate(bean, properties);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new ServletException("BeanUtils.populate", e);
}
The BeanUtils code follows:
// Loop through the property name/value pairs to be set
Iterator names = properties.keySet().iterator();
while (names.hasNext()) {
// Identify the property name and value(s) to be assigned
String name = (String) names.next();
if (name == null) {
continue;
}
Object value = properties.get(name);
// Perform the assignment for this property
setProperty(bean, name, value);
}
This is all there is to it. That is fairly easy to track and does not
provide any mysteries that cannot be controlled by the judicious coding of
the reset() method.
Hope this is helpful.

Yes that's the way it works
It does not matter in which scope the form is set
1. JSP submits the form
2. Struts goes to find one in the scope you told him
3. if it finds one, then it calls reset() (so to avoid having stale data),
then populates it
4. it it doesn't find any form in the scope, then istantiates a new one then
carries on
This is because Struts doesn't know if the actionform it founds is being
populated by a multiple-page form, or is simply a stale one.
And this is why reset() takes httpServletRequest as parameter: so you can
implement your own reset logic depending on your particular application flow

Plz domonstrate more, as far as I understood:
1- When a JSP submits a form.
2- Struts calls reset for the form.
3- Try to populate the form from the JSP controls, even it was in session.

Hi
I'm not sure I've understood properly what you need
What I understand is that you are trying to populate the same actionform
using several pages.
The problem is that struts *always calls reset()* every time it access the
form.
What you can do is making your pages set a flag in the request, so your form
can know where it's called from.
Reset() method takes httpServletRequest as parameter, so you can implement
conditional logic there... sometimes like:

UTF8 and Chinese
I am trying to use the image tags from Commons sandbox taglibs. I am
trying to use them with Chinese. The Western European languages work fine
with them, but the same thing does not work with Chinese. I am doing the
following, in essence:
// Welcome in Chinese
String original = new String("\u6b22\u8fce");
and
// "Welcome" in Chinese
String original = new String("\u6b22\u8fce");
byte[] utf8Bytes = original.getBytes("UTF8");
original = new String(utf8Bytes,"UTF8");
Neither works. I just get the proverbial square boxes on the resultant
images. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks, Michael
RE: UTF8 and Chinese
UTF-8 works fine with Chinese and everything else. I am doing it. It can
be used, and I do use it, on each JSP page no matter what the language. I
am presently using 19 which all work fine with UTF-8. I wondered about
that. And, I am not saying that UTF-8 is always the way to go. But it
does work. The problem was not the UTF-8 but getting a physical Font
address. For Hebrew and other Arabic languages I had to reference
LucidaSans which is with the jre and for the Eastern language I used Arial
Unicode MS. One can use the Netscape font too, which is Bitsteam
Cyberbit. Unfortunately, I had to work this out on my own. Wish I had
gotten more interest, but I have to admit I did not approach the list
intelligently with this request. I just assumed that people would figure
out why I was on the list rather than the reverse. Oh well, live and
learn. My mistake.
Thank you for this interest. If you have any further interest, please feel
free to contact me personally. I have it all working acey duecy as of today.

can try UTF-16 instead?

Re: Multiple Forms per Submits
The technical answer to your question, if it is taken literally to be about the client side, is that with HTML you can only have the values of one form on a response page submitted with a request from the client. If you are thinking truly about submitting multiple forms on one page, why not just make it one form? I think you probably, as James apparently also thinks, must mean something else. The reason you must is that extending forms on the server side really is fairly unrelated to what you do on the client side. If you are talking about the server, there is also an answer. You can do just about anything you want to do with form objects. Most of the things you can do are ill-advised, but the alternatives are vast indeed.

Re: Controller for web services
That is pretty much the reason for Struts, isn't it? Literally, of course, no one can do an MVC implementation for web services, but the older dogs get pretty mad when you point that out. They don't want to hear it for some reason. But, in terms of providing the idea MVC-Like implementation, Struts is just what you ordered, I think.

RE: Tiles and changing the title based on content
I assume by the "tile" you mean the JSP page that is referenced in the
tiles xml, if that is how you are doing it. If so, you just reference a
bean property on the JSP page. Again, what is the problem. This is
simple. I always do this without any difficulty. Here is something I have
in one tiles layout JSP page:
This obviously calls a bean referenced as "gui_data" and calls another
object in that bean with a getScheme() method and the title with a
getTitle() method. I must misunderstanding the problem, because this is
simple to do and you must know this. 'Hope this is helpful.

I understand why this recurs, even though experienced people will likely say "duh" or think that this is not a good question. There is something a bit different about this situation that throws new people. I think it is because the answer depends upon the value of a tag attribute and not the attribute itself. If one thinks rigorously, this can be confusing. If one is lucky enough to have formal schooling, this sort of thing does not cause a problem. If you are self-taught like myself, and I suspect yourself, this is an issue. I had the same problem with trying to find out why "?" was referenced in Java code dealing with the Internet. If you have to find that out on your own, it is surprisingly hard. It is like trying to find the blank key on a keyboard. Anyway, pedagogical issues aside, the answer follows. The key is really simply knowing how the frameset and frame tags work generally. The tags allow you to identify which frame will be called. The frame tag has a name attribute which is mirrored by the name value for the target attribute in the related tag used to call a link. The best thing is to just make a simple html page with a frameset and do a little experimenting. It becomes clear quick when you do that. Michael

Re: Problems with Opera, Struts and Session Management?
I probably should have added that in my ForwardAction I convert a path from the ActionMapping so that users can be allocated a particular look and feel that they have chosen on the website. The line that is related to the Opera failure is: return new ActionForward(layout1.layout + "_" + path); With Opera, the Layout object referenced as layout1 here is not set in the session on my index page. This difficulty is overcome by putting code in to log that the Layout object has been put into the session. That mystifies me. Any demystification chiefs on this one?

Re: Problems with Opera and Struts?
I am not spawning a new window, Rick, but it is a session variable problem as explained in prior emails. It also is an intermittant problem. Sometimes it happens, and sometimes it does not. There is no apparent reason for the changes. So, hacks to fix it are regarded by me as equally suspicious. The intermittant problem does not occur with IE and Netscape.

No, this is not correct, Rick. The null pointer is for the reference to the Layout object in the session, which in fact is there.

Re: Problems with Opera, Struts and Session Management?
Heh, Rick, I said it was impossible first. I agree with everything you say
and I know the computer is always right. But, this is what I see and I
have reported it accurately, I think.
Regarding what you did not know I meant. I thought I explained it but I
will try again, and try to do better. I provide different look and feels
to different clients. They choose. Thus, my urls are modified so that I
can have a constant url in the struts-conf.xml under, e.g. "input" for the
action mapping, and a variable one in the tiles.xml. Thus, I have to have
between the struts xml and the tiles xml readings a way of converting. I
do this with a Layout object that is spawned from the ServletContext and
placed in the session on the index.jsp page. This is the object that is
showing null in Opera but is not null in IE or Netscape and I have checked
to make sure that it is there. This should not, I know, affect
Opera. But, these are the facts and all the facts I know.
The fact is I don't have trouble with IE and Netscape and I do with
Opera. Here is the code that Opera seems (in impossible terms) to conflict
with and is in my index.jsp page which merely FORWARDS to another page:
session.setAttribute(SiteConstant.LAYOUT,session.getServletContext().getAttribute(SiteConstant.LAYOUT));
The FORWARD is where String
indexUrl = layout + "_index"; and where layout is presently hardcoded for
these tests. When the session gets to "indexUrl", with Opera sometimes the
session does not have the default layout object in the session. I can cure
this in Opera by having the index.jsp FORWARD page contain the following code:

If you are sure you haven't changed some cookie settings and you aren't
spawning a new window, then my guess is there will be a way to duplicate
the exact same problem in IE/Netscape/Mozilla. I don't get what you mean by:
"The null pointer is for the reference to
the Layout object in the session, which in fact is there."
The above would have nothing to do with a browser and is impossible,
unless you think you are refering to the same Session but you are not.
In other words, you are setting something in Session scope and then later
on you do some stuff which somehow spawns a new Session.
To say you are getting a null pointer for a reference to an object that
really is there in Session is impossible:) In other words if you do
Object obj = session.getAttribute("someOjbect");
and obj is null then there is no way "someObject" is refering to a handle
to an object in this session.

RE: Problems with Opera and Struts?
Everyone is saying sensible things and these are my thoughts exactly. But, that is not what I am getting. I am tending to think that the only option is that the problem has happened to appear when Opera is running and that really there is something wrong with the session management. That is the direction I have started to go. I have been buoyed by the fact that you all agree that the problem with Opera seems nuts to you too. Thanks.

Re: Problems with Opera, Struts and Session Management?
This is an excellent suggestion. I tried hard coding the value that layout1.layout should be giving and everything worked. I also tried testing to see if layout1 was null, and it was. Since layout1.layout is a value I want to use throughout the session, always, and is a value that is only used in the session, it seems that the session is the proper place to put this value. I am setting the value of the default layout in application scope with a plugin. Then, I am putting that value into a session Layout when people come on board. They can then choose their own layout later, or their "host" can have prefigured the Layout for them. The same site has multiple hosts with their own "guests".

Re: Page pre-processing - reply
I am interested in finding a solution for this recurrent problem, as I know many are. My first question, however, is what do Struts and Tomcat use to keep track of sesssions? Anyone have a reference to that information? I think the solution might be to keep something other than a session which is a function of time and ip address with a hidden token.

This parameter could point to a new kind of model action that will complete the model with information needed by the view any time the forward is activated. Or... I'm missing something ... How do you handle such a case? This question comes up a lot, and I've never been content with any of the solutions provided and I've been following this list for a while. My first choice is to use the Session for these lists... I know there will be garbage in there but to me it's the cleanest solution (and hey RAM is cheap:). Another solution proposed is when validation fails set up a scenario where you forward to the 'prepare' action again. I haven't used this later approach so there might be some issues with it like making sure the rest of the form data is populated etc. Another solution that everybody hates because it puts business logic in your Form beans is to have the validate method in there make a call to repopulate what your page needs. I've seen the reset used for this also... and although it breaks the MVC structure, it's actually sort of neat since the reset acts as your "prepare" making sure the page that is form is going to be used on has everything it needs. I still don't recommend you use the FormBean for this though - makes it difficult later on to debug and figure out what's going on since most expect the form beans to be "dumb" since they are really only part of the view layer. If the Session isn't an option for you, I wouldn't even mess with using the default validation stuff, and call validation directly from your Action (either in execute or the appropriate dispatch method), this way you'll have feedback on failure and can repopulate what you need accordingly.

So the answer is: yes you can, but it's useless. -Messaggio originale- Da: Rick Reumann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Inviato: mercoledì 2 giugno 2004 2.04 A: Struts Users Mailing List Oggetto: Re: Struts Tag Library Srinivasa Jagannadh Gade wrote: > I've a question with Tag Library. > > Can we use only the Struts Tag Library without using Struts Framework as > a whole(Controller ,Action,Form etc). It does you no good to use the Struts tags without using tags. The ones you need from Struts are used in conjunction with ActionForms, which you wouldn't be using if not using the framework. Any other tags you 'think' are useful from the Struts tag library you cold get from using JSTL. -- Rick - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
validating indexed properties
I have a form with a list of 10 assets. Each asset has a name and a cash value. I've successfully set up the validator to catch when a non-numeric cash value is entered. I would like to display a little exclamation point icon next to the field with the bad cash value. Is this possible? I don't see any support in the "messagesPresent" tag for indexed properties, nor do I see any support for indexed items in ActionMessages.

no struts classes (jar files) found by application
Hello, maybe someone can help. I've tried to deploy two struts applications to two tomcat test servers (one running tomcat 5.0 and one running tomcat 4.1) but I can't get it to work on neither of them. For development purposes I had all required jar files in the application's WEB-INF lib. Then I've removed them all and deployed my war files to the servers. I've put all the struts _war_ files from the jakarta-struts-1.1/webapps dir into my server's _webapps_ dir as described in the installation part of the struts documentation. After restarting the _servers_ all applications in my webapps folder were properly deployed but my own struts application (which is not located in the webapps dir) could neither find the struts classes nor any other classes required. Does anybody know why? How can I make Tomcat (4 and 5) find the struts jar files i.e. classes? The only way I can get my application running is to put all required jars into the application's WEB-INF/lib directory. Since this is not my only struts application I end up with multiple copies of theses jar files on the same server. It works that way, but that's not how it's supposed to work, or is there something I am missing? Any help is appreciated.

Re: no struts classes (jar files) found by application
Hello Dirk, thanks for your answer. That means that I end up with tons of redundant struts packages on my production machines and many redundantdantdant class loading processes on server startup. Oh well, hard to digest ... BTW, do you know by any chance whether this applies to the velocity packages and to the commons libraries too? It seems that struts also requires that all the libraries that it depends on are located in the WEB-INF/lib diretory as well. Is that also right?

RE: delete a record
This is not a struts issue. You have a few choices. JavaScript is a poor one, in my opinion. Use two response objects: one to give them the option and the second to give them the option the second time. Another way to do this is to archive the record instead of deleting it and only delete it upon confirmation. You can archive the record by creating a boolean archive value in the record. There are lots of solutions, of course.

Re: A Strange Title Tile Problem
I am surprised, if you have been working with messages much, that you have not seen this.

Re: [OT] Storing Birth Date
There are lots of ways to do this, of course, but I have found over the years that working from a long value works best for me. From there you can go any direction.

How should we design our detail object, JSP and database in such way we don't have a messy approached to populate the day, month and year in Action class to be able to display in JSP during UPDATE process. Currently, I have a JSP with combo box for day, month and year. Using mySQL db, I set the dateOfBirth column to TIMESTAMP. (Some told me to use DATE for this column). I tend to do it slightly different than Mark's approach or yours above using combo boxes. I like to let the user be able to free form type in the date and also provide the option of calendar date picker (plenty of free javascript ones out there). I hate having to select each part of the date from a drop down since I can type in a date pretty quickly (If the user hates typing that's what the calendar picker is for). I usually put the format I want next to the date field in the JSP as defined as bean message property that can be looked up in the ApplicationResources file (ie form.date.format=mm/dd/yy ). Not only is this good in case you want to deal with localization issues, but it's nice if someone comes to you and says "Product Manager John Doe would rather the user's enter the date as mm-dd- instead of mm/dd/yy" The form field I take is a simple String. I then validate using the validator framework or simply validate in the Action itself. (If you use the validator framework you have to register your date converter, but once registered it's set for the whole application so you only do it once. If you want to go that route I can show you how to do it.. there are some posts in the archives here how to do it also). When needing to display the date back in the form it's just as easy when you have that converter registered since BeanUtils can convert it correctly for you. I like the flexibility of this approach. I can see the benefit also of having the ActionForm return the Date formats you want, but it's not my preferred way of doing it. -- Rick - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Nested dispatch action
Danged if I can make out what it is you are trying to do, Mark. You say:
"The situation is that i need to add an item to the the levelOne object.
But when submitting there's no way of grabbing the index and thus knowing
which of the levelOne objects to add a new rows of nested object to."
This means, I gather, that you want to add a "course" to forEach
iteration. Is that right? You might, for example, want to add
"dessert"? Where is this being "added" in the sense of where the decision
is being made. Is it the client using the form or the server making the form?
Others may clearly see what the question is. Sorry if it is obvious and I
am just being thick headed.

I've been looking through the struts source with a view to trying to find

Basically the problem is passing through an index or key to the

..
The situation is that i need to add an item to the the levelOne object.
But when submitting there's no way of grabbing the index and thus knowing
which of the levelOne objects to add a new rows of nested object to.
So far I've been using the unspecified method and searching the parameter
names for a custom button name. So not really dispatching any thing. But
If i wanted to go another level i would arrive at the same problem.
So far it looks like adding a nestedDispatchMethod or
indexedDispatchMethod which also passes the index through.
Anyone else looked into this? It would seem a common enough problem.

Danged if I can make out what it is you are trying to do, Mark. You say:
"The situation is that i need to add an item to the the levelOne object.
But when submitting there's no way of grabbing the index and thus knowing
which of the levelOne objects to add a new rows of nested object to."
This means, I gather, that you want to add a "course" to forEach
iteration. Is that right? You might, for example, want to add
"dessert"? Where is this being "added" in the sense of where the decision
is being made. Is it the client using the form or the server making the form?
Others may clearly see what the question is. Sorry if it is obvious and I
am just being thick headed.

Re: EJB + Struts + Hibernate

Re: LookupDispatchAction Default Action
The easy answer is that you can have your framework do whatever you want it to do when it receives a URL. If the URL is directed to the Struts ActionServlet by your server, you can also code further choices, etc. there. At 08:33 PM 6/27/2004, Rodney Paul wrote: Hi All, I have a problem in regards to the LookupDispatchAction Struts class. My problem is in regards to a user pressing the "Enter" key on a keyboard. In this scenario, a form submit has been activated via html, with no submit buttons having been pressed. When Struts see's this, the Struts engine displays a java error indicating that the parameter being used for lookup's doesnt exist in the request. Now is there a way of indicating to Struts that if the user presses the "Enter" key a default action will occur. In other words, without using Javascript for trapping the "Enter" key, is there a way to tell struts to execute a default method if the user presses the "Enter" key. In particular a descriptor value indicating the default method to execute. If possible could anyone help me with a solution to this problem. Cheers Rodney Paul ps.

2 Actions + 1 Form + 1 Submit
I have some code where an action is called in an and in an as a value for the src attribute of the tag. Also, I have extended the ImageTag class or to mine some other values regarding the image, color, font, etc., because I intend to use the action which is the value of the src attribute to build the button on the fly to match whatever the name of the Button is, e.g. "Submit.gif". My only question is: Is there any reason why the action which gets the image as the value of the src attribute cannot access the values of the form needed to build the button if it does not already exist? Thanks! The code will look something like the following: <%@ page language='java' %> <%@ page contentType='text/html; charset=UTF-8' %> <%@ taglib uri='struts-html'prefix='html' %> <%@ taglib uri='crackwillow'prefix='crackwillow' %> <html:html locale='true'> <head> </head> <body bgcolor='red'> <html:form name="buttonForm" type="com.crackwillow.struts.form.CrackWillowButtonForm" method="get" action='/logOnWebmaster.do'> <input type="text" name="firstName" value="">FIRST NAME<BR> <input type="text" name="lastName" value="">LASTNAME<BR> <input type="text" name="email" value="">EMAIL<BR> <crackwillow:image property="button.reset" src="resource.do?file_type=gif&file_name=RESET.gif"/><BR> <crackwillow:image property="button.submit" src="resource.do?file_type=gif&file_name=SUBMIT.gif"/><BR> <crackwillow:image property="button.clear" src="resource.do?file_type=gif&file_name=CLEAR.gif"/><BR> <crackwillow:image property="button.cancel" src="resource.do?file_type=gif&file_name=CANCEL.gif"/><BR> </html:form> </html:html> So, I want the resource.do action class to mine the buttonFrom action form. One thing is for sure, the logON.do action must precede the resource.do action, because it creates the text the browser uses to call the second action. Seems like it should work fine to me. It involves enough work that I thought I would run it by you chiefs and indians first. Thanks for any pointers.

Re: Form bean scope question
The problem is that, no matter what that is causing the problem. The error report tells you that is the problem. The problem is that you are not seeing what the error tells you is not being seen. So, track it back. If the "taglib" line is there, then the URI might be set wrong elsewhere or not set at all, etc. But, the problem is identified clearly, in my opinion, and this is it.

Re: some best practices questions
I think the obvious is important with this recurrent problem. The obvious is that you want to persist data for a period that is not coincident with the normal devices for doing that. i.e. request, session and context scopes. The difficulty is matching up with storage method on the server with the "life-term" of the client. There are any number of solutions to this problem with varying pluses and minuses, and I think you really have to solve what you need for your problem. I have no doubt that there are recurrent problems and that some general solutions to those particular recurrent problems would be useful. I have been mulling this around in my head for a while trying to get some sense about this. I wouldn't mind an ongoing discussion group on this alone somehow, if there were a way to do that. I might create a forum for that. At 07:43 PM 7/6/2004, you wrote: I recently developed an application with a complex UI. One of the pages required querying the database based on user selection and re-displaying the page with the retrieved data and any previous existing user selections. Four different fields can trigger a db query resulting in page re-display and validations can also result in page re-display. Each time the page is re-displayed, the "state" of the page must be "remembered" from the last time it was displayed. (still with me so far?) Most of the data retrieved is list data displayed in single- or multi-select lists and populated using html:options collection and LabelValueBean. (for those of you reading this post who have developed similar code, you will know what I'm referring to). In the action, the retrieved data is placed in session scope to minimize db hits. I thought this was a good idea at the time. For some reason, placing data in session scope is frowned upon by some members of my team (even if improves performance). Anyways, what I need are some ideas of the best practices that fellow Struts users follow when a page requires querying the db and re-displaying the page with the retrieved data and previous selections if placing the data in session scope is not an option. How can I recall the previously retrieved data without requerying the db? Would it make sense to hide the data in the page? (i.e. either using hidden fields or hidden select lists or to generate a JavaScript array). What are the risks, if any, of hiding the data in the page? (i.e. performance). If anyone has developed similar pages, can you tell me if you decided for or against placing data in session scope and why? Any ideas would be appreciated.

Re: some best practices questions
Ever thought about creating a new scope managed by your own manager from application scope? That is an approach I have been thinking of more and more as of late. At 08:35 PM 7/6/2004, you wrote: I used hidden select lists to restore user selections since I wasn't "allowed" to place the whole form in session scope. The management/maintenance of user selections was indeed ugly (but its done and works fine). My question has to do with the data retrieved from the db (from which the user makes selections). For example, when the form is initially displayed, I populate a list of vehicle lines (i.e. Focus, Mustang, Freestar, and so on). The user can copy a vehicle line from the source list to the target list. The target list consists of user selections. When the page needs to be re-displayed as a result of some other query, I needed to re-populate the list of vehicle lines (the source list). I felt that re-retrieving the same vehicle lines from the db again was silly (since I got it once I simply put a map in session and use it when needed). When posting the form, the list of label value beans is no longer available in the action, so my options were: (1) either store in hidden lists (concatenating the key with the description) or (2) re-retrieve the vehicle lines from the db or (3) place them in session the first they are retrieved and get them from session scope. I chose the third and wondered about some best practices others have used in similar situations. - Original Message - From: Rick Reumann To: Struts Users Mailing List Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 2004 10:58 PM Subject: Re: some best practices questions Christina Siena wrote: > I recently developed an application with a complex UI.

Personally I'm not as anti-session as most people, and I think to use it or not use has to be taken on a case per case basis. If your queries to generate the lists are not going be cached in anyway by the backend and/or they are expensive queries to run, the Session can be a better place to temporarilly store this information as the user progresses through the 'flow' as you've described above. Sure the data each time might not be perfectly fresh, so if that is a requirement than you will need to query after each new selection is chosen. I'd opt for testing out performance making a new query each time to generate your lists for the drop downs and see how it behaves. (If your data in the database will never be altered by an external process you can really leverage something like iBATIS that will cache queries for you so everything is golden). You are asking a two part question, though, and one thing I think that you 'might' be confusing is the use of the lists in Session versus the ActionForm in Session (retaining user's selections). From what you are describing I would DEFIINITELY keep your form bean in Session scope for this. This way any chosen parameters will be remembered as you are brought back to the page. This is a perfectly legit use of the Session and don't let anyone convince you in to using a bunch of hidden variables and storing your form bean in request scope each time.

Speaking of storing stuff in session scope. I've developed what I think is
a handy class which I think it useful for
when I want to store something like a search in a session variable.
For instance if I want to page through it ( using displaytags.org (10 out
of 10)) or simply if I don't want to fetch
from the database time and time again.
By default the data expires on an hourly basis. And if a different
combination of parameters is sent it expires
the cached stuff.

AW: Using Log4j in Struts 1.1
Hi! 1. You have to put commons.logging.jar and your favourite implementation, e.g. log4j.jar, in the WEB-INF/lib or the server directory for common libraries (e.g. CATALINA_HOME/commons/lib). 2. The configuration of the logging framework could be done in several ways. The most simple one to do is to copy the log4j.properties in your WEB-INF/classes directory. After that you can start with logging immediately, but there are two disadvantages: - property file is part of deployment - changing of log4j.xml could due to a server redeployment of the web app. I hoe this helps you a little bit to get off.

Well WSAD allows you to click edit from it's struts-config editor, and if the class exists it will pop it up in the editor, and if not it will create the class, fill in some basics from a template and then pop tat up in an editor for you. I think this is what he was asking.

Because the editor takes the context from the struts-config file. If you're looking at an action mapping, the class is there, so it just pops up the class unless you're thinking .class as opposed to .java... when I say class I'm talking about the source code...

Basically what Ted and I said earlier. In WSAD, the struts-config editor
has an edit button
next to where the class name is displayed. Click it, and WSAD brings up
an editor with that class
in it. If there is no class for the name you've provided ( i.e., you've
typed the name in by hand, or just
filled in the mapping part and hit edit.)
then it will bring up the class creation wizard, with the defaults already
set to create a
standard Action class all stubbed out with everything you need except the
logic to do the action.
Looks something like:
public class FooAction extends Action {
public ActionForward execute(
ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {
ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
ActionForward forward = new ActionForward();
// return value
try {
// do something here
} catch (Exception e) {
// Report the error using the appropriate name and ID.
errors.add("name", new ActionError("id"));
}
// If a message is required, save the specified key(s)
// into the request for use by the tag.
if (!errors.isEmpty()) {
saveErrors(request, errors);
// Forward control to the appropriate 'failure' URI (change
name as desired)
// forward = mapping.findForward("failure");
} else {
// Forward control to the appropriate 'success' URI (change
name as desired)
// forward = mapping.findForward("success");
}
// Finish with
return (forward);
}
}
and you're off coding logic.
MyEclipse, IDEA and others will do something similar.
Like Ted said, really really cuts down on the nickel and dime BS quite a bit.
Any more and I think we're off topic.

RE: Dynamic extension of web apps
Struts has the mechanism to do this too, by the way. What I do is to define tiles, e.g. "html_page", "wap_page", and then reference just "page" in the struts-config.xml. You have the controller detect the device coming in and switch the tiles reference as required. This can also be used, by the way, again, for "skins". This works with, e.g. mapping.getInput(), by the third way.

Dynamic lookup tag lib (drop down list reverse)
Hi all
I have created a jsp tag that will look up a collection (of
LabelValueBeans) and return the label of the value. For example we store
position description in a code table such as
Code Description
1Director
2Manager
3Assistant Manager
4Staff
In the User table, we store
Logon Position
Jack 1
Jill 2
Charlie 2
In a UserList.jsp
Logon :
Position:
This will produce the following list
Logon : Jack Position: 1
Logon : Jill Position: 2
Logon : Charlie Position: 2
To display the position description instead of the position number, I
added a list of LabelValueBeans to the session (ie
session.setAttribute("session.positionlevel"); ) and changed the JSP to
the following.
Logon :
Position:
The droplist tag will produce the following with
Logon : Jack Position: Director
Logon : Jill Position: Manager
Logon : Charlie Position: Manager
I am happy to contribute this back the STRUTS tag lib or if anyone is
interested, let me know and I will send you the code. This functionality
consists of
ma-droplist.tld
com.ma.struts.taglib.droplisttag.java
com.ma.struts.taglib.droplisttag.class
To add the functionality to your JSP you will need to
1) Add the tld to your web.xml.
2) Add the tld to your JSP.
This tag also works with indexed beans as droplisttag.java is extended
from writetag.java.

What mode are you running in?

A few weeks ago, as I was finishing up several database implementations of
commons-resources, I noticed that when I ran the tests with HSQLDB in
"All-In-Memory" mode, you have to keep a connection to the database or you
will lose everything, including your tables.
The only other suggestion I can make is to add ';' to your statement.

You really should read the docs for HSQLDB.
