I checked in the ActionTag changes I discussed last week. Now you do this: <webwork:action name="testAction" id="testAction"> <!-- id is required now, it gets the default namespace of "" --> <webwork:param name="foo">123</webwork:param> </webwork:action> <!-- the action is executed here -->
Now you can access the Action in the ActionContext context map using the id you supplied: <webwork:property value="#testAction.foo"/> Or <webwork:push value="#testAction"> <webwork:property value="foo"/> </webwork:push> The action is also set into the PageContext using the id, so you can use JSTL, or whatever you want. I've also fixed the example web app to work with the new ActionTag. Speaking of the example app, I noticed that the ui tags are breaking in Tomcat 4.1. Here's the stack trace: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /tags.jsp(5,0) Unable to find setter method for attribute: name at org.apache.jasper.compiler.DefaultErrorHandler.jspError(DefaultErrorHand ler.java:94) at org.apache.jasper.compiler.ErrorDispatcher.dispatch(ErrorDispatcher.java :417) at org.apache.jasper.compiler.ErrorDispatcher.jspError(ErrorDispatcher.java :186) at org.apache.jasper.compiler.Generator$GenerateVisitor.generateSetters(Gen erator.java:1681) ... I think the problem here is Matt's change to make the name in AbstractUITag be a java.lang.Object and have the getName() method return an Object rather than a String. The problem is that when you have the getter and setter with different types, the javabeans framework gets confused about the type of the property you're trying to set. I'm not sure of the intention behind this, so I'm going to leave this one for you, Matt :-) Jason -- Jason Carreira Technical Architect, Notiva Corp. phone: 585.240.2793 fax: 585.272.8118 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Notiva - optimizing trade relationships (tm) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The Definitive IT and Networking Event.
