Hey all, a few questions about getting started with a form in Struts 2.
Questions
---------
The scenario: an action generates a form (from a
dynamically-generated list of questions, called a Survey), that's then
submitted.
I have a class, QuestionGeneratorAction, with two methods:
- quesionGroups() which generates a survey to fill out
- saveSurvey() which saves the survey.
Will the form submit to saveSurvey hit the same instance of
QuestionGeneratorAction as the one that generated the survey
originally? If not:
- Can I make it do that?
- I'm using Spring in my project (but not for this part -- just
DAOs for now), can that help?
- If not, where can I store the generated survey?
- Am I missing the whole point of this?
If it does already, then how do I get a <s:radio> to eventually
result in a call to Response.setValue(int)? (see Background, below).
Background
----------
The survey's a field in QuestionGeneratorAction, an instance of a
class called Survey, which just has a list of ResponseGroups, which in
turn has a list of Responses.
The JSP is this: (severely stripped down)
<s:form action="saveSurvey" theme="iddl" validate="false">
<s:iterator value="survey.responseGroups">
<s:iterator value="responses">
<s:radio name="value" list="{1,2,3,4}" />
<!-- that should hit the 'setValue(int)'
method of Response -->
</s:iterator>
</s:iterator>
<s:submit />
</s:form>
(my custom theme iddl just formats the <s:radio> into a table, the
rest is copied from xhtml).
Thanks in advance for any help!!
