Re: Another questions about checkboxes
Hi Alex!
Have you solved your problem yet? I was facing the same situation a cuple of
weeks ago.
All values from your formbean are sent in the request as parameters when you
press submit - but checkbox values are only in the request if they have the
value on = they are checked. The reset method works like this: values are
first set to false by the reset method and then, if they are present i the
request they receive value true, otherwise the have the value false.
Is your problem the following: when you come to your second page the values
are correct but when you submit this page you go to an action class that
forwards to the first page - is that correct or do you go via two action
classes to reach the first page from the second page?
Anyway, since the formbean values are present as parameters in scope
request, they are not found the last time the reset method is called. First
the reset method sets the checkbox values to false, after that no parameters
are found in the request and thats way the final checkbox value is false,
even though it was true on your second page.
I solved this problem by checking the formbean's checkbox values in the
first action class after my second page and when I forwarded to a second
action class before my first page was shown again I added parameters to the
requset manually if the checkbox value was on = true. When the reset method
was called these parameters were found and the formbean was populated in a
correct way.

Re: selecting a row in a table with a checkbox
Hi, There're basically two approaches to this problem. 1)Use Javascript on the client side: You may group each row of table including all its elements into a separate form without submit button, and then you can use an independent button in a dedicated form and inside its onclick() event, you can test the current state of checkboxes for each row. If it's checked, you can then submit its associated form. If you have to deal with the situation where multiple checkboxes can be checked at the same time. You would rather use the server side solution. 2)Use server side programming: You can first detect the values for checkbox and start to process the associated group of elements. Note that in this case, checkbox request parameter can have multiple values, I personally would rather use the j2ee standard request.getParameters() instead of Struts method.

Re: Forwarding Data For A Form
According to my understanding of the problem, this is really a very typical requirement that the Action class needs to pass some information to its view (jsps). All you have to do is to set the userid as an attribute of request(or session) scope. And then in the login.jsp, you can use bean:write tag to pick up its value. Further, in your case, you may want to use this tag for both displaying and setting the value of a hidden element.

I also had a few thoughts about a Struts solution on the train home. See if you think this makes sense. 1. Create before and after actions. 2. after actions look like what people are used to for processing forms in Struts, only a bit simpler. The job of an after action is to consume any form beans and generate appropriate side-effects *independent* of what the next page might be. So, in an EJB app you would make state changes, and in a login page you might stuff some kind of User javabean into the session context because you know all pages would go looking for it. Once done, the after action would look for a magic request parameter; if present that would provide the name of the next action (basically a return path), otherwise transition out in whatever way(s) would be normal for the action. 3. each before action only preps for the display of one particular JSP page and inherits from a base class that adds a bit of simple workflow support to the basic Action. All such subclasses provide lists of bean names to look for and the context in which they should be found. The parent class functionality iterates over those lists, and if anything is missing then the magic return parameter is set and an action is invoked to supply the missing bean. The action could be derived by applying a naming convention to the bean name (e.g. myBean - /before/myBean.do). Once you have the required beans, you do any other setup work required for the page, and then forward to the JSP page. Now, there is some complexity to that magic return value that I'm glossing over, but aside from that I think this would work. It results in an extra K before action classes, where K is the number of web pages in your application. It would also end up with another K action mapping entries in struts-config.xml. On the other hand, all the after action classes would be simpler and more independent of each other. - Do You Yahoo!? Send your FREE holiday greetings online at Yahoo!

RE: Creating reports in PDF format
Just create an HTML table with the content you want, and set the mime-type to application/ms-excel (or something like that, don't know it by heart). Et voila, the browser opens excel and shows you the stuff. Won't work if the user doesn't have excel installed, but then again, he wouldn't be able to read the .xls file anyway. hth, tomK - Original Message - From: Ajay Chitre [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Struts Users Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2001 7:20 PM Subject: RE: Creating reports in PDF format Thank you both - Fang Robert - for the info.

button tag
Hi, I have a question about the html: button tag. The discription about the property attribute of that tag is the following: Name of the request parameter that will be included with this submission, set to the specified value.. And additionally the value attribute has the following description: Value of the label to be placed on this button. This value will also be submitted as the value of the specified request parameter. As far as I understand these descriptions I would expect the value of the specified parameter in the HttpServletRequest object. That means when I call the getParameter(String) method with the specified name of that button tag I would expect to retrieve the value specified in the tag. I tried to do this but it didn't work. Am I wrong with my assumption. Peter DISCLAIMER: The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged. It is intended solely for the addressee.

Session Timeout question
How can one accurately detect that a session has timedout? I have a custom tag that is automatically included on every jsp page we have. Its job is to detect whether a session has timedout and if it has, to redirect the user to a different page to relogin or whatever. I think it is the case that when I call request.getSession(false) it is still creating a new session if the old one has expired. Any thoughts on how to approach this issue? I don't have access to the name of a login token for example because our sign-on functionality is just a drop in without the source code.

problem using the logic:equal tag
Hi Struters, I have a problem using the logic:equal tag. I have a bean collection (Array List of value/label pairs of String's - used in an html:select) and I'm using the logic:iterate tag to iterate over the collection. Whilst looping over the collection, I want to test to see if the value of the collection matches the value of another bean (not a collection but just a single String value). If so, it will display the contents of that collection. I have coded the jsp as follows: logic:iterate id=projectCollection name=projectsList logic:equal name=projectCollection property=value value='bean:write name=projectCode/' bean:write name=projectCollection property=label/br / /logic:equal /logic:iterate However, this DOES NOT APPEAR TO WORK. If I replace value='bean:write name=projectCode/' with value=PH (i.e. a hardcoded value) then it works. Needless to say, if I display the contents of the bean using bean:write name=projectCode/ on it's own, it displays PH as expected (without quotes). It also seems odd that I tried playing around with declaring variables within JSP and using that within the logic:equal tag as follows but it also does not give the desired effect: % String pcode=PH; % logic:iterate id=projectCollection name=projectsList logic:equal name=projectCollection property=value value=% =pcode % bean:write name=projectCollection property=label/br / /logic:equal /logic:iterate I'm using version 1.0 of Struts and version 3.2.1 of Tomcat. Can anyone throw any light on this? Wilson
RE: Looking for a clean required-bean handler
This is how my application is setup. I have step 1-5 and there are before and after actions for every step. The only downsize is strut will update the form twice and struts-config.xml is longer. The action classes are simplier and independent. -Original Message- From: Michael Sabitov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2002 3:49 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: Looking for a clean required-bean handler This is exactly what I'm trying to implement in my current project. Although I want to use a little bit different approach for invoking next before action: Every after action would have a result (for example success, error etc.) and it would have an action mapping for these results in struts-config.xml. These mappings would forward not to the next .jsp page but to the next before action. This before action would have a regular action mapping to its corresponding .jsp page. Would it work? I don't know yet. I'll create a proof of concept in next couple of days and see... Thanks, Michael. -Original Message- From: Reid Pinchback [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 31, 2001 5:26 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Looking for a clean required-bean handler Thanks for the pointer, I'll check it out! I also had a few thoughts about a Struts solution on the train home. See if you think this makes sense. 1. Create before and after actions. 2. after actions look like what people are used to for processing forms in Struts, only a bit simpler. The job of an after action is to consume any form beans and generate appropriate side-effects *independent* of what the next page might be. So, in an EJB app you would make state changes, and in a login page you might stuff some kind of User javabean into the session context because you know all pages would go looking for it. Once done, the after action would look for a magic request parameter; if present that would provide the name of the next action (basically a return path), otherwise transition out in whatever way(s) would be normal for the action. 3. each before action only preps for the display of one particular JSP page and inherits from a base class that adds a bit of simple workflow support to the basic Action. All such subclasses provide lists of bean names to look for and the context in which they should be found. The parent class functionality iterates over those lists, and if anything is missing then the magic return parameter is set and an action is invoked to supply the missing bean. The action could be derived by applying a naming convention to the bean name (e.g. myBean - /before/myBean.do). Once you have the required beans, you do any other setup work required for the page, and then forward to the JSP page. Now, there is some complexity to that magic return value that I'm glossing over, but aside from that I think this would work. It results in an extra K before action classes, where K is the number of web pages in your application. It would also end up with another K action mapping entries in struts-config.xml. On the other hand, all the after action classes would be simpler and more independent of each other. - Do You Yahoo!? Send your FREE holiday greetings online at Yahoo!

[DONT BOTHER] Re: Where can I find html:messages ?
I ripped the guts of the error tag to get at the final errors messages.
This will allow me now to write customised error messages in my JSP
%@ page import=java.util.* %
%@ page import=java.io.* %
%@ page import=org.apache.struts.action.* %
...
ActionErrors errors = (ActionErrors)pageContext.findAttribute(
Action.ERROR_KEY );
if ( errors != null !errors.empty() ) {
List errorCollection = new ArrayList();
Iterator reports = errors.get();
while ( reports.hasNext() ) {
ActionError report = (ActionError) reports.next();
String message = RequestUtils.message(
pageContext, Action.MESSAGES_KEY, Action.LOCALE_KEY,
report.getKey(), report.getValues());
errorCollection.add( message );
}
request.setAttribute(errorCollection, errorCollection );
%
ul
logic:iterate id=oneError name=errorCollection
indexId=counter type=java.lang.String
bean:write name=oneError filter=false /
/logic:iterate
/ul
There is a lot of Scriptlet code here. Looks like it will be a tiny custom tag action
project somebody.
pp:errorCollection id=oneError indexId=counter
bean:write name=oneError filter=false /
pp:errorCollection/

Re: Creating reports in PDF format
IMHO you should only look to iText if page generation times are under serious scrutiny or if you're expecting more than 15 pages per PDF file (a high end box might be able to handle more, I just know that there's a certain range of pages where FOP just starts becoming dog slow). FOP also is easier to work w/ because it's like like writing an HTML page in XSL (note i'm very much a newbie w/ XSL so hopefully that speaks to how much i dislike iText). Writing a PDF document in iText is like building an HTML document purely from javascript (document.write(html); document.write(...); etc) because you have to build everything from scratch at the Java code level. Also there are some bugs within iText that we still aren't sure what's going on. We just know it's coming from iText and some very goofy things had to be done to sidestep them. FOP doesn't have the best performance (or scalability), but it affords a rapid development environment.

Re: Session Timeout question

RE: Creating reports in PDF format
Ajay: For PDF Conversions we have used a commercial Software called as RasterMaster from Snowbound. It does a pretty good job converting formats to PDF, using API calls from Java. We did have some issues with memory errors using this tool, but after increasing our Heap memory when the VM was being started, we were able to handle it.

Corro cc: (bcc: Will Spies/Towers Perrin) john.corro@corner Subject: Re: Creating reports in PDF format stone.net 01/03/02 09:47 AM Please respond to Struts Users Mailing List IMHO you should only look to iText if page generation times are under serious scrutiny or if you're expecting more than 15 pages per PDF file (a high end box might be able to handle more, I just know that there's a certain range of pages where FOP just starts becoming dog slow). FOP also is easier to work w/ because it's like like writing an HTML page in XSL (note i'm very much a newbie w/ XSL so hopefully that speaks to how much i dislike iText). Writing a PDF document in iText is like building an HTML document purely from javascript (document.write(html); document.write(...); etc) because you have to build everything from scratch at the Java code level. Also there are some bugs within iText that we still aren't sure what's going on. We just know it's coming from iText and some very goofy things had to be done to sidestep them. FOP doesn't have the best performance (or scalability), but it affords a rapid development environment. You can get better performance from iText, but you have to realize there's probably going to be a lengthier development time involved. - Original Message - From: Rajan, Jeffy [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2002 7:50 AM Subject: RE: Creating reports in PDF format Both the options iText and FOP does not work so well for creating large PDF files.

General design question
Hi, I have a general design question. Assume a web application that represents a use case over several sites. Each of these sites have form fields. Each site has a Next and Previous button except the last an the first which only have either a Next or a Previous button. Additionally there is a navigation bar where you can navigate to each site directly. In general I would appreciate design recommendations for this kind of application. More specifically I have the following questions. - Do I need to have an extention of the org.apache.struts.action.Action class for each site. - If so, how do I manage the handling of the different button events that are coming from a specific site.

Custom tag performance
Title: Custom tag performance For a workflow system, I've created a custom tag (extending the struts BaseInputTag) that combines the functionality of the following struts tags html:text bean:message messages:present The custom tag has a property attribute and a key attribute (for the field label), and I modified the base tag readonly attribute so that it outputs the value in a span element if readonly is true, and an input element if readonly is false. The tag looks like this: ims:tradefield readonly=true width=85 key=trade.securityinfo.instrumenttype property=instrumenttype/ and produces output like this: trtd class=label align=rightInstrument Type/tdtdspan class=val style=width:85;EQUITY/span/td/tr In addition, the tag checks the ActionMessages collection to see if there is a message relating to this field, and if there is, it outputs the label in red. The tag works great; the problem is that my form has about 60 fields on it, and it's a bit slow. It seems like the custom tag approach produces a *lot* or repeated code. For instance, it looks like the ActionMessages collection is created anew for each tag. Ditto with the Action.MESSAGES_KEY bundle. Is there any way to create these things once at the top of the .jsp page, then just call them from the custom tag? Any other performance enhancing suggestions?

Also if you are using a Servlet2.3/JSP 1.2 container (e.g. tomcat 4) (not sure about earlier versions) you can register listener(s) that will listen for all the session timeouts in the system or write an object into the session that implements HttpSessionAttributeListener which will be notified when it is unbound (e.g. when the session object is about to be destroyed) Luke -Original Message- From: Sean Owen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 03 January 2002 14:57 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Session Timeout question A new session is created before your JSP is serviced, so I think that's why you're always getting a session object there. session.isNew() is an indirect but pretty good way of knowing when a session has just been created, and thus could be because the old session timed out.

Specify scope in tags..
Greetings: When using the logic tags, I like the Idea that it will access a collection from a specified scope OR check all the scopes starting with page scope and so on. When using the options tag, I get all my lists from the database and store them in different scopes depending on how specific they are to the user. (the province list will be global, user specific lists will be set to session at login, and others may be specific to the each request.) I use this code to access a list from application scope. html:select property=globalItem html:option value=0 key=select.required/ html:options collection=globalList property=value labelProperty=label/ /html:select My question is: This tag seems to check all the scopes and does NOT give you the option of indicating a specific scope. Am I correct in this? If this is so then I guess the only problem is naming. Has any body else dealt with this? Thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Javascript tag libs
I just started tinkering w/ the Javascript tag library package written by Tom Tessier on jspinsider.com. Basically, it's a tag lib that translates into some very neat and useful javascript functionality (dynamic color coding of required form sections, pulldown menus, etc). I was wondering if anybody knew of any other packages like this one. I know that some of the struts tag libs resolve down to javascript too, but i was interested in tags/packages (and opinions of them) that were specifically designed to abstract away the javascript layer. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi all. I am using the XML form of JSP (1.2) and wish to write the equivalent of the following. jsp:scriptlet int myvar = 1; /jsp:scriptlet input type=hidden value=%= myvar %/ However this doesn't work as the %= myvar % is only evaluated as an expression when being passed to custom tags. So for example the following is ok: html:hidden value=%= myvar %/ .. but I've tried everything I can think of (short of using println statements!) to output the value of any type of variable (not just scripting ones) to normal output tag attributes - but nothing works. NOTE: I cannot use %= myvar % or jsp:expression myvar /jsp:expression as these are not well formed XML and so the page will not compile. Help! I don't know if I am missing something obvious or if this is just not possible!

Original Message Subject: [ANN] Struts + Velocity + Tools +... Date: Thu, 03 Jan 2002 15:48:29 -0500 From: Geir Magnusson Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Velocity Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED],Velocity Developer's List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Real Soon Now is Now. Thanks to Gabriel and Ted for this as well as everyone that contributed and supported the discussion. There is a new CVS repository called jakarta-velocity-tools It is where we can put together our tool project. I will add this (and -dvsl) to the jakarta cvs page, but you can go there directly : http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-velocity-tools/ And of course, for those that use CVS clients, just cvs checkout jakarta-velocity-tools Currently, there are two parts : View = This is a general purpose servlet that does tool loading, and is meant to be used in place of (or along side of) JspServlet. The toolbox stuff is rudimentary and untested (I put it together today) and there are lots of refinements to be made. View includes an example that uses Gabriel's cool self-building war, so to see how this works, just go to exmaple/simple and type ant devwar And then deploy that war. You can see it work with the simple index.vm - so to test, just point the browser at the servlet engine, and suppose you called the war strutsvel.war http://localhost:8080/strutsvel/index.vm And you will hopefully see it work There are a a few cool things in View that will probably migrate into Velocity proper, namely the WebappLoader, which does template loading via letting the container return input streams, and a ServletLogger, which lets the velocity log stuff go to the servlet log file for convenience. These features depend on the current 1.3-dev jar, which is included. Struts == This is a package that contains the stuff needed to connect Struts and Velocity, and the overwhelming majority of the hard work was done by Gabriel Sidler and Ted Husted (from Struts-land). It has the same project structure as View, you can build the jar, but there is an excellent example WAR put together by Gabriel with major contributions by Ted that show three or so apps done using Struts both with JSP and Velocity, so you can compare and contrast. That too should be in the example/struts directory and a ant devwar should build it. Deploy and enjoy. There are a few tools in here that are going to come back out because they are generic and go live in View or Tools. I got sick of moving things around today :) One really cool thing is that no special Struts support is required for this, and it works with struts 1.0, the released version. Hats off to Gabriel for this (if you wear a hat...). Once this is reasonably tested and we do a release, we'll add Struts to our list of supported frameworks :) And coming : Tools = Not checked in yet, this will be a general tool space, where we can grab the stuff in commons-sandbox/rupert and give care and feeding VM == Not started. Need some ideas - basically a collection of VMs Sorry about the delay (but some things are worth waiting for). I'll add links from the Velocity site and make nightly's later today. Also, if someone has better ideas on how this might be organized and arranged, just speak up... -- Geir Magnusson Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] System and Software Consulting We will be judged not by the monuments we build, but by the monuments we destroy - Ada Louise Huxtable -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

NoClassDefFound Error in weblogic
Has anyone experience a NoClassDefFoundError when running struts in weblogic? If I place struts.jar in the weblogic classpath, then my application works fine. If I place struts.jar in the webapp/lib directory then I get a NoClassDefFoundError when the jsp tries to load an ActionForm for a page. One other thing to note is that this only happens when the webapp is unpacked. I pack the webapp into a war file and leave the struts.jar in the lib directory, the application continues to work fine. Finally, I am using ServicePack8 and am not in a position where this can be changed. thanks in advance, Jeremy
RE: NoClassDefFound Error in weblogic
Jeremy, Are you using weblogic 5.1? I am using weblogic 5.1 and have successfully used struts with sp 9, 10, and 11. I haven't tried 8, though. You may want to try a high sp just in case it's related to that. Anyone else out there use sp 8 ok with struts? In my experience, if it's a wierd error, the solution often is to upgrade to the next higher service pack (that's how I got to 10 and then 11...).

RE: NoClassDefFound Error in weblogic
Jeremy, This problem can happen if you have left some other jar in the system classpath (the weblogic classpath) that calls struts. The classloader order is that the webapp classloader depends on the system classloader. Thus if a class is not found in the webapp classloader, the system classloader gets asked for it. But the other way round is not true : if a class is loaded from the system classloader and then this class uses struts (or indirectly uses some other class that uses struts), then the system classloader has no visibility of the webapp classloader and will throw a NoClassDefFoundError. In order to prevent this make sure you have nothing at all in your CLASSPATH environment variable nor in the weblogic classpath. The other possibility is that your application requires a jar (not struts jar) that it cannot find. It happens that the webapp classloader reports an error when loading a struts jar but actually it is not true ... What happens is that the webapp classloader chooses this time to check class dependencies and does not find a class, which is why it throws a NoClassDefFoundError and not a ClassNotFoundException BTW (or something like this - I'll let someone else, Craig ?, explain that better than me). I have had this issue with Tomcat but I don't know how the WL webapp classloader works.

RE: Using Struts with XSLT
Hi Jan I'm relatively new to struts - but have come from a background of using XSLT with Servlet2.3 filters. Have to say this worked great, although as people have pointed out there is a performance hit. But I found with optimization I could reduce this to a nearly negligible amount (I also used SAXON - which is great and has improved quite a bit in recent releases performance wise.) I have a working site using XSLT, but it was written and maintained purely by me - so it was a nightmare for other people to support - as all the presentation stuff was in the XSL, i.e. raw XML data (from app server) driving XSLT sheets with embedded HTML/WML etc. This lead me to want to split out the data some more and have 2 XML streams - one describing the data and one describing the presentation (sounding familiar yet?) which I implemented myself using XSLT URIResolvers. Around this time I also discovered Cocoon and spent an interesting, but ultimately unfruitful, time evaluating and porting to it. It has a lot of nice features (many of which I'd already implemented for myself previously - annoyingly :), but I realized that what I was ultimately doing with my dual XML data flows was effectively implementing custom tags using XSLT. (Also see Cocoons XSP templating language) E.g. In your presentation XML you write something like sidebar entryusername//entry /sidebar And in your XSLT you have something like: xsl:template match=sidebar table !-- Write your entries here sort of thing -- /table /xsl:template You also find your self wanting to substitute data values for elements which may come from secondary XML streams or you may want to read values directly from Java classes. This becomes a lot more cumbersome. XSLT - Java bindings are non standard and mostly awkward to use. Then I (re-)found JSP and Struts. Taglibs have come a long way since I last looked at JSPs about 2 years ago and I realized I had the solution to my problem. Use JSP to generate the presentation layer (as it was meant to do) and use the taglibs provided by struts and Jakarta. The presentation is still separated out, using Java to access data is much simplified, and I can still bring in my XML data using the xtags library. Currently I am not planning on using XSLT at all for the moment (which makes me sad as I love it). Although I am considering that it may be useful in i18n, as I don't like all the properties files you get from the taglib. And it may be useful in defining on the fly look and feels by restructuring your XHTML etc. I'm still not ultimately convinced JSP/Struts is the 'best' way - and in general I liked cocoon. But now there are so many useful tag libraries (including support for XSLT) why go re-invent them yourself in XSLT? Plus ultimately when it comes to getting someone to support my pages when I want to move on to the next new thing ;-) I know I'm going to find it easier to find someone to support a JSP/Struts solution than my own bespoke XSLT one! Hope some of those ramblings were useful. Luke -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Using Struts with XSLT
Hi, It's been quite a long way before I finally arrived at the same conclusion you guys have reached. That is use XSLT only for what it is designed for and what it is best at. According to my experience, XSLT is great for doing XML to XML transformation. But for complex XML to HTML transformation, or whenever you want to do complex logic in the stylesheet, you will find that the complexity of stylesheet really offsets the benefit of separation of content from presentation. My understanding is that using stylesheet is only hyperthetically ease the job of page designer. In fact it's hard to learn and use for page designers. Besides that, there's a performance penalty that can't be easily conciliated by using cache. Personally, I would like to use Struts for most of the web applications. As a true MVC framework, Struts inherently separates the view from control and model. Armed with a rich set of Taglibs, you can actually achieve most of the benefit of xsl and still get the power and ease of use of JSP. So if you've got Struts, who needs XSLT for view again? Well, On the other hand, XSLT may be useful in the future web services applications, where XML is used as an universal and platform-independent format for communication and then xslt can be used to process it. That's my forecast. For those sites that really need to support multiple languages or skins or platforms, and if they really want to use xslt and are ready to accept the complexity and overhead of stylesheet, I would suggest that they still use Struts as framework, but in the view part, the jsp pages will use XML instead of HTML as the native language and use Taglibs to do the transformation on the fly (or use XSLT Sevlet filter to do the transformation, for it readly supports caching locale). For those who are really worry about performance, I suggest that they use Servlet+XSLT, that is to do the xslt transformation in the ActionServlet, bypassing the JSP implemented views.

The application was a time tracking invoicing type app that we delivered as an ASP (i.e. failed .com). Spent 18 months with that stuff. We were using the Sun xml processor and the Saxon xslt compiler. It wasn't struts, but that shouldn't matter too much. I can imagine numerous ways one would eventually route the output through a XSL processor using struts -- including the method you mentioned. Some things I discovered. #1, the performance definitely was not what I could have wanted for the application. All that xml/xsl handling added a certain performance floor that simply could not be overcome. We calculated that the XSL rendering part of the application added somewhere between .5 and .75 seconds to all requests. Granted, we were doing pretty heavy rendering -- the xml objects were upwards of 30k or so.

The stuff is not rocket science, but still not the easiest thing in the world -- especially for interface designers. #3, the XSL syntax at the time was not standardized. We moved between the Lotus XSL processor and Saxon and had to do a complete rework of the interface layer. This may sound like a bashing, but it's not. The concept of XSL rendering is absolutely amazing. It gets one much close to that perfect separation of data and presentation. And things have progressed substantially since that time.

RE: Forwarding Data For A Form
I think this sounds like what I am doing. I have a form that performs an action, the goes to another form, either the same or different but a new form needs to be set. Pseudo code: Form formObject = new Form(); formObject.setId(1); formObject.setName(NEW); Request.setAttribute(formName, formObject); Return(new ActionForward(somewhere); Is this what you are trying to do? I use this because I get a form object that is partially populated and use it to look up and return a fully poplated form, I then just overwrite the request attribute with this new form. Or a form may have multiple possible actions some going to new forms of a different type, so I lookup and set some initial info and set that into the request.

What I'm wanting is the form input fields to be prepopulated with data sent by another Action so when the JSP form is displayed the fields are all filled in. I thought the jsp:useBean tag would work, but it didn't. (I didn't want to expose the class name of the bean to the JSP page anyway. I was hoping to stay in the Struts Model 2 framework to keep all the Java details abstracted away from the JSP developers.)

I have a Registration action that updates a database and generates a user id. The perform() method of that action forwards an ActionForward object mapped to a Login form. I want the Login form to display the generated user ID from the Registration action. I'm not sure how to pass along the user ID so it will automatically be picked up by the Login form and displayed in the proper input field. Thanks.

Re: Using Struts with XSLT
Hi, I can tell u the problems i faced using Xalan XSLT. It forcefully puts all attributes defined in XSL as tag attribute= even if they dont have a entry in the XML file. This feature created problem as HTML is not well formed and also in WML which wants perfect structured'ness. Thanks - Original Message - From: Shengmeng Liu [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Struts Users Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 04, 2002 9:09 AM Subject: Re: Using Struts with XSLT Hi, It's been quite a long way before I finally arrived at the same conclusion you guys have reached. That is use XSLT only for what it is designed for and what it is best at. According to my experience, XSLT is great for doing XML to XML transformation. But for complex XML to HTML transformation, or whenever you want to do complex logic in the stylesheet, you will find that the complexity of stylesheet really offsets the benefit of separation of content from presentation. My understanding is that using stylesheet is only hyperthetically ease the job of page designer. In fact it's hard to learn and use for page designers. Besides that, there's a performance penalty that can't be easily conciliated by using cache. Personally, I would like to use Struts for most of the web applications. As a true MVC framework, Struts inherently separates the view from control and model. Armed with a rich set of Taglibs, you can actually achieve most of the benefit of xsl and still get the power and ease of use of JSP. So if you've got Struts, who needs XSLT for view again? Well, On the other hand, XSLT may be useful in the future web services applications, where XML is used as an universal and platform-independent format for communication and then xslt can be used to process it. That's my forecast. For those sites that really need to support multiple languages or skins or platforms, and if they really want to use xslt and are ready to accept the complexity and overhead of stylesheet, I would suggest that they still use Struts as framework, but in the view part, the jsp pages will use XML instead of HTML as the native language and use Taglibs to do the transformation on the fly (or use XSLT Sevlet filter to do the transformation, for it readly supports caching locale). For those who are really worry about performance, I suggest that they use Servlet+XSLT, that is to do the xslt transformation in the ActionServlet, bypassing the JSP implemented views.

We did a small project using pure XSL transformation with Struts. We had to overcome the combo box selection, form validation, and error handling issues that could be handled much easier with Struts directly. I am really debating with myself at this point. On one hand, it seems like the whole world is going with JSP/Struts, on the other hand, I really don't want to give up the beauty of the truely seperation of the data from the view. Are you still working on this topic? What area do you mean when you said to limit the usage of XSL only when it's neccessary?

The application was a time tracking invoicing type app that we delivered as an ASP (i.e. failed .com). Spent 18 months with that stuff. We were using the Sun xml processor and the Saxon xslt compiler. It wasn't struts, but that shouldn't matter too much. I can imagine numerous ways one would eventually route the output through a XSL processor using struts -- including the method you mentioned. Some things I discovered. #1, the performance definitely was not what I could have wanted for the application. All that xml/xsl handling added a certain performance floor that simply could not be overcome. We calculated that the XSL rendering part of the application added somewhere between .5 and .75 seconds to all requests. Granted, we were doing pretty heavy rendering -- the xml objects were upwards of 30k or so. And we were getting somewhere around ~8000 page requests/hour. #2, we had to staff and train a cadre of XSL stylsheet designers.
