ActionMapping problem: upgrading struts1.0 to struts1.1 question

[Averbukh Stella]

In the current struts 1.0 application, we do following:

String actionNameFind = "/" + thisForm.getAction();
ActionMapping newMapping = (ActionMapping)
getServlet().findMapping(actionNameFind); 

Does anybody know how I can retrieve ActionMapping in a similar manner in
struts 1.1?

Thank you so much.

RE: obtaining ActionMapping object

I need send data from more than one formbean to the business logic. And before that I 
need validate that beans, becouse it is not "wizzard like flow".

You need the "path" to specify which mapping you want.  From the RequestProcessor 
class, you can use:

    ActionMapping mapping = (ActionMapping)
moduleConfig.findActionConfig(path);

You can use RequestUtils to get your ModuleConfig.

Why not call the formbean's validate() method?

Not in 1.1, but you can use wildcards in the nightly build.

RE: ActionMapping - regexp pattern matching for path

[David Friedman]

Can't you use a module and set the action mapping to 'unknown="true"' so
that one particular action is used for everything?  If so, you'd need to be
mapping actions as 'do/*' instead of '*.do', theoretically.  I've been
meaning to try this now that I'm using /do/* as my Struts v1.1 mapping but I
haven't got around to using any modules yet.  (I'm sooo slow on ths project,
like I don't want to do it).

David

No, I don't believe this is possible currently. Wildcards of any kind
(extending to regexps) are not support for ActionMapping paths.

ActionMapping - dependency - question

[Zimmek, Jan]

Hi,

I have started to develop several reusable struts-enhancements like
(conditional-execution of actions, workflow, ...).
All of them have been realized using the nested  element of
the  element which is working very nice ;)

What I do not understand is, why the ConfigRuleSet.java defines the
following rule:

digester.addSetProperty("struts-config/action-mappings/action/set-property",
"property", "value");

instead of something similar to the datasource/plugin - rule:

digester.addRule("struts-config/plug-in/set-property", new
PlugInSetPropertyRule());

which invokes a method E.g. :

addProperty(String key, String value)

and not a "setter"-method like (when property="test") :

setTest(String value)


Due to this fact I am running into problem because I am not able to use
multiple enhancements at the same time, unless the defined
"ActionMapping"-class of the action implements "setter"-methods for all
required properties.

E.g:

class MyMapping
{
  setPermissionName()
  setNextFlow()
  setXXX
  ...
}

In my opinion this is a dependency which contradicts the independency of the
struts-framework as a whole.

It would be great if one of you could give me a hint on how to solve my
problem without changing the struts.DTD or anything along those lines.

Any help is very appreciated.

You can extend the way that digester handles struts-config without 
recompiling ConfigRuleSet by setting a "rulesets" initialization 
parameter in the web.xml deployment descriptor:

Re: actionmapping set-property problem in 1.1 upgrade

RE: actionmapping set-property problem in 1.1 upgradeHi,

an alternative is the "parameter" - attribute of the "action" - element. But this way 
you can only pass one parameter (except you use a csv value and split this in your 
action manually).

Adding a custom digester rule (like for "data-source" and "plugin") in this class:

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-struts/src/share/org/apache/struts/config/ConfigRuleSet.java?rev=1.15&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup

Right.  This class has had a setPublic(boolean) for a long time and it's worked correctly in struts 1.0.


Only when I updated to struts 1.1 today did the problem arise.


It looks like struts as of 1.1 does not use the classname attribute in the action element as it did in 1.0:


    
    type="com.participate.pe.profile.client.actions.PublicProfileInit"
    name="publicProfileForm" scope="request"
    className="com.participate.util.client.struts.ApplicationActionMapping">

Thanks for the comments on the  Digester and ConvertUtils. I'll check them out.

When, inside an  element, you have a , Struts uses that as an instruction to call 
a method on the ActionMapping class.



type="com.participate.pe.profile.client.actions.PublicProfileInit"
name="publicProfileForm" scope="request"
className="com.participate.util.client.struts.ApplicationActionMapping">

  



So, in this, Struts is looking at an instance of 
"com.participate.util.client.struts.ApplicationActionMapping" for a 
method called "setPublic(...)"

The type of the "public" property can be anything that ConvertUtils 
can convert from a String.  (See 
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/ to learn more about this 
very important library which was factored out of Struts and which 
provides a lot of the important behavior in Struts).

In this case, I'd expect property to be String, Boolean, or boolean.

I don't know the com.participate classes, so I have no idea if you're 
using it correctly, but this is what Struts is trying to do, and 
that's why Struts (actually Digester, another important Commons 
package) says java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Bean has no property 
named public

I'm not sure why Nazeer suggested adding a "continue" property, 
unless he was accidentally looking at your  element instead 
of your  element.

Hi, 


We're upgrading to struts 1.1 and came across a problem with 'action

Re: Probs migrating custom ActionMapping from 1.0.2 to 1.1

[Kris Schneider]

For 1.1, I believe you'd use:


  
  ...


The "mapping" init-parameter is deprecated in 1.1. You could also customize the
actions on an individual basis with:

Probs migrating custom ActionMapping from 1.0.2 to 1.1

[James Childers]

Ladies and gents,

Having an issue with migrating our application over from 1.0.2 to 1.1. Specifically, 
we have a problem in the following line from our ActionServlet:

ModuleConfig modCfg = RequestUtils.getModuleConfig(request, getServletContext());
SecureActionMapping secAMapping = (SecureActionMapping) modCfg.findActionConfig(path);

The second line gives a ClassCastException whenever a request is made. The hierarchy 
for SecureActionMapping is:

ActionConfig
+- ActionMapping
+- SecureActionConfig
+- PackagingActionMapping
+- SecureActionMapping

Further, the "mapping" init-param in web.xml points to this SecureActionMapping class. 
The class type being returned by the findActionConfig(String) method is ActionConfig, 
although the servlet appears to be configuring itself properly during the 
initModuleConfig(String, String) method of ActionServlet.

So my question is this: Is there a different mechanism for specifying the default 
ActionMapping class than doing so in web.xml?

Thanks in advance,

-= James

thanks craig, now I got it : ) the docs are not very clear regard to

If you look at the implementation of the getAttribute() method in
ActionForm, you'll see that it uses the form name if you don't explicitly
reference something else.  Therefore, using getAttribute() instead of
getName() gives you the *option* to store the form bean under an attribute
different than the form bean name, without having to worry about whether
or not a particular Action really uses this.

RE: Dynamic ActionMapping params

[Steve Caswell]

The way I've solved this is to:

- get the configured ActionForward from mapping.findFoward("BLA")
- build a new path string using the path from the configured ActionForward and the 
dynamic querystring
- create a new instance of ActionForward
- populate it with the new path and the other properties from the configured 
ActionForward
- return this new ActionForward

May not be elegant, but it works for me.

Subject: Dynamic ActionMapping params


I have created several sites that use the "mapping.findForward("BLA") method to 
forward (or redirect) to a relative URL.  This has always been statically specified in 
my struts-config.xml like this:



then in code I do:

mapping.findForward("BLA");   //(simple stuff)



Now I have a need to forward to a URL that will have dynamic parameters like this:

/main_layout.jsp?param1=value¶m2=value$param3=value

Not sure how to pull this off.  Obviously I can't use a statically defined forward 
definition.  I guess I could put the params in the request, which works fine if I 
forward, but what if I redirect.  I would have to put them in the session.  Not clean 
coding in my opinion.  I would rather specify as querystring params.

Anyone done this?

I'm doing that, with 1.1-rc1:

  ActionForward forwardfrommapping =
mapping.findForward("BLA");
  if (forwardfrommapping != null)
  {
  forward = new
ActionForward(forwardfrommapping.getPath() +
"?param1=" + param1.value(), true);
  }

Of course, beware that getPath() may give you more
than "/main_layout.jsp" when the struts-config changes
;)

getting an ActionMapping class from within a custom tag

[p]

Hi,

What: I would like to find the roles associated with an ActionMapping 
from within a custom tag, but I only have the action name so I guess I 
need to get an instance of the ActionMapping class. How can I do this? 
How do I get an ActionMapping class, given the name of the action?

Why: I want a generalized way to hide links to actions that the 
currently logged-in user doesn't have access to. So what I plan to do 
is subclass the html:link tag-- my subclass will check the current 
user's access to the action for the specified link, and either hide it, 
or print only the link text.

The filter servlet is hit before the request reaches the main servlet -

You can always have the access code performed in the Filter, *after* the 
filter chain has been invoked.  However, it might be of no use for your 
use case by that time.

Like I said, it ought to be so obvious.

That was the whole problem.  Here I'm expecting Struts to pass in my

and then I'd have to cast it over to my subclass.  Doh!

RE: Subclassing ActionMapping

[Mike Jasnowski]

When you extract the ActionMapping are you casting it to your new subclassed
actionMapping or the parent class?

MyExtension ext = (MyExtension)actionMapping;

Where MyExtension is the class named in the "className" attribute of your
config

HTH,
Mike

This should be so stinkin' obvious that I ought to be seeing it, but after
spending all morning trying to figure this out, I hope someone can shed some
light for me.  I've subclassed ActionMapping so I can include a couple of
 tags in my Actions.  This seems to work OK as I can see the
'setters' being called when the web app initializes.  The question I have is
this - which class do I specify for my execute action?  Do I use the
standard method signature of

public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping am, ActionForm af,
HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)

or do I use my subclass?

public ActionForward execute(myActionMapping am, ActionForm af,
HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)

I've tried both.  When I use the normal signature, I can't see my custom
attributes.  If I specify my subclassed ActionMapping class
(myActionMapping), nothing seems to work (i.e. can't forward to anything,
action never actually gets invoked).  In my struts-config I specify my
subclassed ActionMapping class using the className attribute on the 
tag.

Arrgh.  This shouldn't be this tough, but I just can't see it.

Re: Subclassing ActionMapping

I'm just guessing here, but have you tried using the
first signature (using the "normal" ActionMapping) and
then casting it inside your action to "myActionMapping"?

Re: ActionMapping

[Puneet Agarwal]

You can write your own ActionMapping Class, which should extend the struts
provided ActionMapping  class.

In struts-config.xml file

in the tag  we can specify type
="com.xx.x...YpurActionMapping"

for indivudual action we can specify this in the individual  tag
as


Hope this helps..!

Submitting form to an ActionMapping with no formbean?

[prhodes]

Hello all, I have a quick question...  if I have an ActionMapping defined,
which uses type org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction, and I want
to invoke this Action via a form submit button, what is the best way
to accomplish this?

If I don't specify a formbean in the ActionMapping definition,
I get an error "Cannot retrieve definition for form bean null'" but
in this case, the Action doesn't need any form information.

For now, I worked around this by creating a class NullForm that
extends ActionForm, and creating a formbean "dummy" using
this class, and then naming it in my ActionMapping definition.
I was wondering if there was a better way to do this?

Thanks,

RE: ActionMapping enhancement?

[Brandon Goodin]

Also, if someone is accessing an action mapping from outside the website the
solution Jerome provided will set the default values even without the
querystring.  only works if you are accessing the url from within
the website and can access the forward param ensuring that the querystring
will exist. I like having a way of providing the default values when the url
is accessed from any avenue.

However, there are some legitimate times to provide non-form based runtime

Couldn't you define a forward in struts-config that contained your default

 tag to lookup the forward.

RE: ActionMapping enhancement?

[Brandon Goodin]

Great.

Question:
I don't want to write an action-mapping class that has properties for my
event calendar action classes being used for my content management action
classes. That is the problem that I see. One ActionMapping class for all
your actions in the struts-config.xml. I like the idea of the hashmap so
that I can access dynamic/configurable properties from a common place in all
my action classes. But, at the same time I don't fill up my action mapping
class with a bunch of unneccessary getter/setters that don't apply to all my
action classes.

Re: ActionMapping enhancement?

[David Graham]

Default parameters that are contained in a url querystring get difficult to
handle. It is nice to be able to change them in one place when needed. This
avoids having to pillage through every page that may contain a reference to
a partical url/querystring combo and adjust the parameters rather that just
one.
Couldn't you define a forward in struts-config that contained your default 
query string parameters?  Then you could change it in one place by using the 
 tag to lookup the forward.

RE: ActionMapping enhancement?

[Robert Taylor]

Brandon,

I have a similar situation and I ended up extending ActionMapping
and using the set-property in the action-mapping in the struts-config file.

ActionMapping enhancement?

[Brandon Goodin]

Do any of you face this issue? and how do you deal with it?

SCENARIO:
I have a set of classes that handle event calendars.

The same classes can be used within one site to maintain multiple event
calendars.

The event calendar contains multiple categories.

I want to utilize the event calendar from various urls to display specific
event calendars:

/do/ec/city - shows event calendar for city events
/do/ec/elksclub - shows event calendar for elks club
etc...

But I want to provide default parameters to each of the mappings so that the
event calendar action knows which event calendar to display without having
to pass it in through a query parameter.

In other words I want to handle the default parameters in the
struts-config.xml.

The only solutions both include extending the ActionMapping class and using
the set-property in the action-mapping of the struts-config.xml:

SOLUTIONS

1) Create a new module (Event Calendar module). Provide a custom extended
ActionMapping to handle properties that may be passed in for the classes
used under the module.

2) Extend the ActionMapping class and provide a setter/getter that receives
a comma delimited value ([0],[1];0=key 1=value) and stores it into a HashMap
in the extended ActionMapping class. I could then provide an accessor method
to retrieve a particular property in the hashmap (i.e. getValue(String
key)). I could then retrieve the value from the action mapping reference
within my action class to initialize default values based on the mapping of
the url.

Thoughts? Corrections?

REASONS:
Default parameters that are contained in a url querystring get difficult to
handle. It is nice to be able to change them in one place when needed. This
avoids having to pillage through every page that may contain a reference to
a partical url/querystring combo and adjust the parameters rather that just
one.
Also, if the action mapping could contain a hashmap of properties... one
could provide runtime configuration info to an Action class in order to
affect it's behavior a certain way. This promotes reusability of code.

AW: error in the attribute input of actionmapping when accesing a globalforward

[Hirschmann, Bernhard]

Hey Ferran,

I think the problem is the path you're using:
/do/admin/AdminPreCreateUserentity=rol&action=find&reference=rol

The syntax is not correct. I can't see where the URI ends and the arrtibutes
start, but a correct syntax would be:
/admin/ActionName.do?attribute1=value&attribute2=anothervalue

So you at least miss the "?"

Re: Accessing ActionMapping in JSP

Have you tried the  tag (was also available in 1.0.2)?

http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/struts-bean.html#struts

P.S.

new String("** hacMapping Null** ") is *EVIL*! A simple String literal will do.

Subject: Accessing ActionMapping in JSP


I have recently migrated from 1.0 to 1.1 and have been having a problem with
accessing the ActionMapping in my JSP.  I have a custom ActionMapping,
HACActionMapping, which I have added several getters and mutators.

With version 1.0, I used this code in my JSP:

<%
  ActionMappings actionMappings =
(ActionMappings)application.getAttribute(Action.MAPPINGS_KEY);

  HACActionMapping hacMapping =
(HACActionMapping)actionMappings.findMapping("/tmsLogin"); // Path hard
coded for example
  if (hacMapping == null) {
%>  <%=(new String("** hacMapping Null** "))%> <%
  } else {
%>  <%=hacMapping.isLoginRequired()%> <%
  }

%>

This works, when there is only one struts-config.xml.  In Struts 1.1,
ActionMappings has been deprecated, and I don't know how to code this for
1.1.

I am also using the new module functionality for my application.  When a
user logs in, they are switched to another module using a SwitchAction.  So,
there are three struts-config files for my app.  After I log in, I am now in
a new module with a new struts-config-pp.xml.  If I use the old
ActionMappings way, I only have access to the mappings that are in my
default sturts-config.xml.  This was confirmed, when I placed this piece of
code in my JSP

<%
  String[] allMappings = actionMappings.findMappings();
  out.println("*X*\n");
  for (int j=0; j < allMappings.length; j++)
out.println(allMappings[j]+"\n");
  out.println("*X*\n");
%>

When this ran, it only produced a list of actions in my default
struts-config.xml.  Does someone know how I would code this using modules,
in 1.1?  I have converted all items that needed to be converted for 1.1,
i.e., created new config/moduleName entires in my web.xml, and removed the

It really is magic ... more so than I normally like to employ, but it was
necessary for backwards compatibility.

In Struts 1.0, the name of the JavaBean that stored stuff from an
 element was ActionMapping -- and, this method was passed as an
argument to every Action in the world.

In Struts 1.1, we migrated the configuration objects to a new package
(org.apache.struts.config), and gave them all names consistent with the
element name that they represented (ActionConfig in this case).  However,
it wasn't a good idea to break everyone's existing Actions by changing the
calling sequence, so ActionMapping is now a subclass of ActionConfig.

The secret to making this work is that the objects stored (in
ModuleConfig) for this collection really are ActionMappings and not just
ActionConfigs -- so, when you pull them back out, the cast works.  It also
works for custom user subclasses, as long as the user extends
ActionMapping and not ActionConfig.

This appears on lines 646-7 in both 1.02 and 1.1. ActionMapping is a

that. Below is some sample code to illustrate my question. Can anyone shed

Steve> I am using Struts 1.1-b2

It appears there's two ways to do this.  You can get a hint about this by
looking at the "struts-config_1_1.dtd" in the distribution.  I've never tried
either of these, but it's relatively clear how to use them from the DTD.

First is the "parameter" attribute of the "action" element.  This just allows
you to set one value, and retrieve it with "getParameter()" on the
ActionMapping.

Second is to use nested "set-property" elements in your "action" element.  This
requires adding additional javabean setters/getters to your Action class.  It's
useful to know that the "set-property" nested element is available in several
other places in the struts-config.xml file.

I have not checked to see whether either of these features were available in
1.1b2.  I see them in the latest source.

not getting right ActionMapping class with StrutsTestCase

[Afshartous, Nick]

I noticed the following when trying to use StrutsTestCase
(latest version of StrutsTestCase with Struts B2). 

 It seems that when a request is sent via StrutsTest that 
RequestProcessor,processMapping does not find
the ActionMapping class that has been configured in
web.xml.  Instead it finds the Struts ActionMapping class.

If I hit the same server via the browser then the configured
ActionMapping class is found by RequestProcessor,processMapping.

Thanks for any explanation as to why the these two
situations are behaving differently.

Newbie question - ActionMapping

[Curtis, Sean]

hey all..

just installed struts, got demo up and running fine on iPlanet Web Server.
just trying to create a simple demo app.
1 view(jsp) 2 fields
1 form, matching fields
1 action

It seems that my jsp forwards correctly to my action mapping, my bean is
populated correctly and validated. my logs look like this:
[03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956):  action: Processing a POST for
/submitform1  
[03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956):  action: Setting locale 'en_US'  
[03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956):  action: Looking for ActionForm bean
under attribute 'form1'  
[03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956):  action: Creating new ActionForm
instance of class 'com.sc.struts.form.Form1'  [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info (
2956):  action: Storing instance under attribute 'form1' in scope 'session'
[03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956):  action: Populating bean properties
from this request  
[03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956):  action: Validating input form
properties  
[03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956):  action: No errors detected, accepting
input  
[03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956):  action: Looking for Action instance
for class com.sc.struts.action.Form1Action  [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info (
2956):  action: Double checking for Action instance already there  
[03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956):  action: Creating new Action instance 

and my app just displays a blank screen (no errors, no errors in log file)
in my browser with my new '.do' url. It doesnt seem as if im able to return
the correct action mapping object. I have now resorted to throwing an
exception in the first line of my Action.execute method, which as you can
see, isnt being thrown. Is this just a setup problem?


Has anyone else had this problem and/or know how I can fix this?

thanks 
Sean

Request "parameter" with actionMapping

[Aladar The Dinosaur]

Hello,

I'm trying to send request parameter (i.e. /uri.do?parameter=value) to the
redirected page actionMapping returns, but couldn't find an easy way to do
this. Can someone help?

I suppose I can forward the control back to the intended page by creating a
new instance of ActionForward, but
that seems to defeat the purpose of using action mapping.

Also, is there a way to send the attribute/value pairs as a "post" method
back to the action mapped jsp page?

Thanks,
Scott

Extending ActionMapping in Struts 1.1 - classcast exception.

[Alex_Kotchnev]

I am working on an app with Tomcat 4.1 and Struts 1.1. I would like  to 
extend an ActionMapping, in order to verify that the user is logged in. I 
extend an ActionMapping, create the getter and setter methods for the 
property that I have added. 

Finally, I change my web.xml and my struts-config.xml files as indicated 
below. However, in my execute ( ...) method, when I cast the ActionMapping 
parameter to a UsersActionMapping, I get a ClassCastException. It seems 
that for some reason it is disregarding the fact that I want it to pass an 
UserActionMapping object , and instead passes me a regular ActionMapping 
object. If comment out the cast to UsersActionMapping, the execute method 
executes successfully.. 

So, my question is.. what am I missing.. what else do I have to do in 
order to get an instance of an UserActionMapping object in my execute 
method, instead of getting the normal ActionMapping object... ? 

Thanks in advance...

please help - difficult to understand how ActionMapping works

[Jitendra Kharche]

Hi All,

I am experiencing a problem with action mapping.
The error statement seen in browser is -

Not Found
The requested URL /struts-ex1/logon.do was not found on this server.

Apache/1.3.14 Server at struts.test.com Port 80

The details are pasted below.
I have not modified any contents of the web.xml file except indenting it 
properly as per my editor. I think this should not make any differnce.

I am using Linux, JDK1.2.2 with Tomcat 3.2.3 under Apache 1.3.14.

Also I have created a simple JSP page named index.jsp with a login form. The 
action of this form is set to "/index" and not "index.do". Hence, I also 
have not defined the  tag in web.xml.
Is it necessary to add ".do" to every action.
On submitting this form, I get the same error as stated above.

Also please suggest a method to debug a struts application.

Please help.

Thanks in advance.

Jitendra

Re: ActionMapping question

[Eddie Bush]

Ok - you missed a subtle distiction :-)

It's never going to be different form what is stated in the config file. 
 You could, however, choose to instantiate/populate a form yourself and 
put it under some key that you wanted instead of the key Struts would 
normally expect to find the form under.  The attribute property would 
then specify the name under which you "poked" the form.

MOST of the time, Struts is going to handle your form creation - and the 
population will be handled by Struts on form submits.  Now, for the 
times Struts creates the form, it's going to use the "name" attribute of 
the form-bean -- but if you put a form out there which Struts does not 
create (and has no knowledge of!) you could use the attribute property 
to specify the name it can be looked up by.  The form would have to be a 
descendant of ActionForm in order to get passed to the action, but you 
may have some case in which it were handy to do this.  Maybe ... well, I 
can't dream up a good example.

The point I've been trying to make is that this is something Struts has 
done "above and beyond the call of duty" (IMHO) - and that it's not 
going to get used (as you've observed) by most folks.  That being the 
case - there's really no need to get hung-up over it :-)

I really wish one of the commiters would give a more "fleshy" response. 
 Don't feel other folks' silence is a cue to keep posting the same 
question though - please :-)  Struts is open source, and, while Craig 
does a phenomenal job of answering many questions (both courteously and 
well beyond "fully") - and while other folks, committers and 
non-committers, try to follow in his footsteps, there are times 
questions go unanswered.  It doesn't mean nobody saw the question or 
that they didn't notice nobody answered it - it's entirely possible 
nobody had a good answer and so didn't want to eat up bandwidth speculating.

I'm sorry if I haven't explained this to your satisfaction - I do hope 
someone with a better explaination will step forward - but I really 
don't see why understanding this one property is so important :-) 
 Struts won't use it unless you tell it to - there's no reason to care 
about it's existence that I see ...

Yes sorry, I read it.

I even resorted to downloading/reading the source code.

I'm just curious as to what this property is for? When would "attribute" be different

Under normal circumstances, the "name" attribute of an  element is
used for two purposes:

* To look up the definition of a  with the matching name.

* To specify the request or session attribute under which the form bean
  instance will be stored.

The "attribute" attribute lets you change the second of these uses if you
want to (for example, you might use the same form bean definition in
multiple actions, and you want to be able to keep the beans in session
scope without stepping on each other).  Most people will just use the
"name" attribute and be done with it.

ActionMapping question

[Howard Miller]

Hi,

Can somebody explain what the "attribute" property of ActionMapping actually 
means. I don't understand it.

Surely the request/session scope is that given in struts-config.xml, under what 
circumstances will it differ?

Asunto: Struts ActionMapping / OC4J problem

Hi.

Several days ago, I posted a message relating to configuring Struts to run
properly on OC4J.

The actual problem was that JDeveloper's wizard for creating Action classes,
does not create a perform(), but an execute() method, which I beleive is the
old version (?).

The Action class that worked properly was hand-coded by me.

Kind regards.

So you request "http://localhost://ProcessForm.do" and it
hits the breakpoint in your action.

Then, you request "http://localhost://GetKeuringsForm.do" and
you just get a 404 error, without hitting the breakpoint in your action, and
no errors in your server logs?

RE: Struts ActionMapping / OC4J problem

[Miller, Jason]

Maybe a stupid question, but I guess it never hurts to check.  Is the
servlet properly mapped, and are you using the correct pattern to call the
URL?

For kicks, mark the second action as your unknown action and then send some
random request ( e.g. "blah.do" ) and see what happens there.

Why do you have type="o.a.s.a.ActionServlet" in your action-mappings 
element?  I never specify a type there any my stuff always works.  I 
suppose this is where you can make all of your actions forward/redirect 
by default by specifying a different action class.  ActionServlet is not 
an action though.  I think that's an error - but please correct me if 
I'm wrong.

If you would be so kind please tell us what you have tried next time - 
rather than just stating your problem :-)  I don't know everyone on the 
list, and my rule of thumb is to start with the simplest solution and 
work toward the more complex one.  When I hear "configuration" and 
"doesn't work" I think "stack trace".  In order to cut through the basic 
solutions and hop right to a more detailed examination, you should state 
what you have tried :-)  Sorry you felt like I was brushing you off (I'm 
nearly certain you did).

I don't think anyone posted solutions for the others either.  You need 
to realize that we're not all omniscient though - and I think most 
people problem-solve like I do (very deliberately - start here; work to 
there).  Hopefully this reply is more helpful ;-)  (I really don't just 
post to exercise my fingers - they get plenty of that, and I have other 
things I could well exercise them on)

The request for the second Action Object returns "404 not found."

Furthermore, the perform() method of the Object is never called (Debugger).

Have you looked at your console/log file yet?  You're about the fourth

Struts ActionMapping / OC4J problem

[Thomas Delnoij]

Dear colleagues,

I have a problem configuring Struts to run properly with the embedded OC4J
app server in Oracle 9i JDeveloper.

It can only find the first Action Object of these two ActionMappings I
configured.



  
  


  
  
  

  

The first ActionMapping accepts input from a form. The second is mapped to a
"normal" link:

The Action Objects are in the same directory.

I worked with Struts before in the Resin container. I think I am missing out
on some JDeveloper specific config options.

I look forward to your suggestions.

Kind regards.

the 'attribute' property of ActionMapping

[Tibor Gemes]

This is not a question, but rather a suggestion.

I reuse the same FormBean in session scope for three different ActionMapping, 
and most of the FormBean properties are not reseted. So if the user comes 
back to the same form, sees the recently entered values. But for these 3 
forms I want to remember 3 different entires. 

So I added the 'attribute' property for each ActionMappings with 3 different 
values.  I have to handle the name and the type attribute for the  
tag where the name is the same as in the mapping respectively, and the type 
is the same as the name for the FormBean in the struts-config.xml.

I think these attributes could be determined from the ActionMapping, but they 
aren't yet. 

Did I misunderstood something in the documentation, or are these attributes 
used not properly, or has the 'attribute' property for the ActionMapping got 
a different purpose?

Do we declare the variable which holds the value of the property test as an instance 
variable? If so will the class be thread safe?

That's just the thing.  You have to define a method in
your action class for each  element you
define.  Basically if you have a property names "test"
then your action class needs a method called
setTest(String str).

Re: Arbitrary parameters in ActionMapping?

[James Holmes]

The data is basically static.  Since it is specified
in the struts-config.xml file it is read and set once
when the "application" starts up.  This way you can
give your action initialization parameters that can be
specified in the config file.

Every user would see the same values.

Re: Arbitrary parameters in ActionMapping?

[Tim Sawyer]

Doesn't this have multiuser issues?  If there is only one action class
instance given multiple users of the action, how do you get data from
this set() method to read it in the main perform() method?

What am I missing?

Tim.

Re: Arbitrary parameters in ActionMapping?

Once the properties are defined in the config xml, how do you access them
from the action class?

Rick,

You can already accomplish what you are describing
with the current Struts architecture via
 elements.


  


This will call the setProp(String value) method of
your action object with the "val" value.

The Struts Console makes it easy for setting these
properties on actions.

Re: Arbitrary parameters in ActionMapping?

[James Holmes]

Rick,

You can already accomplish what you are describing
with the current Struts architecture via
 elements.


  


This will call the setProp(String value) method of
your action object with the "val" value.

The Struts Console makes it easy for setting these
properties on actions.

Arbitrary parameters in ActionMapping?

[Rick Mann]

I've noticed a few people proposing solutions for various framework
limitations that use the "param" attribute of the  tag. Obviously,
only one parameter can reasonably be passed in this attribute.

Does it not make sense to add a nested tag for parameters? In the build of
Struts that I'm using, I haven't noticed anything like this. I was thinking
along the lines of something like this:







Or, if you want to get XML-happy:




param1
value1



but I don't know if that's strictly necessary (I'll let the smarter people
on the project decide).

In any event, in the code, you could write something like:

String val1 = mapping.getParameter("param1");
String val2 = mapping.getParameter("param2");

The method shouldn't even need to be named differently, as the existing
getParameter() takes no arguments. There would obviously be corresponding
setParameter(String) calls.

How does this seem?

I think this should be:

This is what the following message is telling you, that you used the wrong 
paramater name:

ActionMapping, Forward Error

[Chris Cairns]

Hi folks,

I just got started with J2EE, Struts, etc. a few days ago and am not sure 
of a few things.  I also have an error question.

First of all, I read that in the earlier Struts version of 0.5 that the 
action.xml file was used and is not.  Unfortunately, the examples I'm 
following uses this files when configuration should actually be done in the 
struts-config.xml.  What's going on here?  Does this mean that the *.do is 
no longer relevant?


   
 action
 *.do
   

Also, I'm having some problems with global forwarding, action mapping, and 
tags.  I'm simple trying to link to another jsp page from my index.  I'm 
not sure whether I should use the page or forward attribute, although I 
would assume page.  Anyway, here's my code.









   




   



Here are the errors I've gotten from trying to use page and forward in my 
index.jsp.

Parse Error at line 23 column 52: Attribute "path" is required and must be 
specified for element type "forward
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Attribute "path" is required and must be 
specified for element type "forward".

Parse Fatal Error at line 49 column 17: Element type "forward-name" must be 
followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>".
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Element type "forward-name" must be followed 
by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>".

org.apache.jasper.compiler.ParseException: /editorsLogin.jsp(17,0) 
Attribute > has no value


Thanks.  Sorry for the long-winded e-mail, I'll get a hang of this stuff 
eventually (or at least linking, I hope ;) ).
