Hi all,
am new to struts2.. am struggling to get the result for populating items
from DB.
my requirement is to populate country, which is stored in DB, using struts2
and when u choose a particular country, another select box populate its
cities, which also stored in DB..
at first i tried, fetching the list from java class instead of DB... since
there is an example available in
struts2-showcase-2.0.14,built in project of struts2.
when i imported struts2-showcase-2.0.14 and tried that program the
<s:select> is working.. so i thought to implement that into my project.. but
unfortunately it is not working..
i will post here and please have a look and try providing the reason :)
I paste here the example block of a program from struts2-showcase-2.0.14 :
Portion of Jsp file contains the list Like : example.jsp
<s:form action="exampleSubmit" >
<s:select
tooltip="Choose Your Favourite Language"
label="Favourite Language"
list="favouriteLanguages"
name="favouriteLanguage"
listKey="key"
listValue="description"
emptyOption="true"
headerKey="None"
headerValue="None"/>
portion of java class file contains like the following: UITagExample.java
package com.mobitail.action; // i pasted this since i mentioned this in
struts.xml - u should not confuse :)
public String execute() throws Exception {
return SUCCESS;
}
//constructor
public UITagExample() {
favouriteLanguages.add(new Language("EnglishKey", "English
Language"));
favouriteLanguages.add(new Language("FrenchKey", "French
Language"));
favouriteLanguages.add(new Language("SpanishKey", "Spanish
Language"));
}
public List getFavouriteLanguages() {
return favouriteLanguages;
}
public void setFavouriteLanguage(String favouriteLanguage) {
this.favouriteLanguage = favouriteLanguage;
}
public String getFavouriteLanguage() {
return favouriteLanguage;
}
// === inner class
public static class Language {
String description;
String key;
public Language(String key, String description) {
this.key = key;
this.description = description;
}
public String getKey() {
return key;
}
public String getDescription() {
return description;
}
}
portion of struts.xml
<action name="exampleSubmit" class="com.mobitail.action.UITagExample" >
<result>example.jsp</result>
<result name="input">example.jsp</result>
</action>
when i execute http://localhost:8080/mobitail.com/example.jsp .. result is a
blank page
if example.jsp contains other tags like <s:textfield> with <s:select> ,
result is only a textfield .. select box is not shown...
and in the Eclipse Ganymede output window, the error is like the following:
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
tag 'select', field 'list', name 'favouriteLanguage': The requested list key
'favouriteLanguages' could not be resolved as a
collection/array/map/enumeration/iterator type. Example: people or
people.{name} - [unknown location]
