Thanks Scott,
I hadn't noticed the difference between Jason's and Pat's posts on the
matter. However, contrary to my earlier assertion, I'm now convinced that
this syntax isn't resolving to an OGNL expression like it should. In my
browse.action, I explicitely set a private field 'templatePath'. It has
getter and setter methods, but either the stack isn't visible to xwork.xml
like it should be, or I'm not referencing the variable correctly. I know it
is there because this <ww:property value="templatePath"/> turns out right in
the jsp.
I built the latest from the CVS today. Has anyone tested this functionality
since it came up on the list a couple of days ago? Or am I doing something
wrong??
-Robert
--From xwork.xml
<action name="browse" class="com.webs4.Browse">
<result name="success" type="dispatcher">
<param name="location">${templatePath}</param>
</result>
</action>
I also tried the following with the same result.
<action name="browse" class="com.webs4.Browse">
<result name="success">${templatePath}</result>
</action>
--From browse.java
private String templatePath;
public void setTemplatePath(String path) {
templatePath = path;
}
public String getTemplatePath() {
return templatePath;
}
public String execute() throws Exception {
File templateFile = Webs4.getBestMatchTemplate(doc, template);
templatePath = StringUtil.removeDocumentRoot(templateFile.toURI());//
breakpoint here shows correct result
return SUCCESS;
// I've tested with and without leading '/'
}
--HTTP response:
type Status report
message /${templatePath}
description The requested resource (/${templatePath}) is not available.

Robert,
Without following the whole thread (so this could be off base), I think
that the problem is that redirect does exactly that - a redirect. A
redirect is a new request, therefore you don't have the stack setup.
Why don't you just do this:
<result name="success">${templatePath}</result>
Instead of the redirect?
Cheers,
Scott
