Re: [Stripes-users] is Stripes suitable?
Stripes users - I've been meaning to write up a more elaborate posting about our use of stripes but I wanted to give you another datapoint and more kudos to stripes. My company, Evernote, has been using stripes for over a year -- I started using it after a number of successful smaller projects at a previous company. We're now serving over 450k registered users and over 25k requests per minute in a clustered set of servers. We use stripes for our web, iphone web, and web mobile user interface - stripes gave us a lot of model/controller code reuse. The framework is used in conjunction with Hibernate and also GWT for some of the more interactive interfaces. Performance has never been an issue. Stripes makes it easier to make more secure applications. Stripes has helped me bring new junior non-java engineers up to speed very quickly - they are less likely to make errors that new Java servlet engineers make. Stripes layout frameworks are remarkably simple and useful -- the best I've used. UI code reuse is effortless. We continue to be impressed about how easy it is to extend stripes and also how well it plays with other tools (be it AJAX frameworks or tag libraries). (Probably not as issue for you) but localization using stripes was very easy, even with some complex requirements. The default UI widgets (especially error handling) are minimal but great and very configurable. They make creating well behaved forms the default. My recommendation, if you're going to use Stripes, is to get one senior person to learn it from from top-to-bottom establishing the usage guidelines for the rest of the team. Stripes is incredibly hard to use if you use it wrong -- a few good examples are usually all you need but if folks head off in the wrong direction they can get frustrated quickly. Things like allowing multiple forms on a page are very easy to do and but also really frustrating if you don't know how to make it work. This mailing list is great and the community is very responsive but I think it's essential to have a local champion.

Here's a casual performance comparison from a couple of years back that found Stripes to be significantly faster than WebWork/Struts 2 primarily because of Struts 2's reliance on OGNL for binding. As far as I know, Spring MVC uses OGNL also. I'm using Stripes in two production applications, one of which is running on a modest Linux server. The number of users has grown from tens to thousands, and the only scalability issues have been resolved in the persistence tier - Stripes contributes very little overhead to this app. There's a list of some public sites built using Stripes here. One of the more notable ones is http://imagesource.cnn.com I would suggest that you try porting a slice of one of your existing Spring MVC applications and doing your own comparison. You could use Apache JMeter to load-test a few use cases and measure response times as the number of users increase. By the way, a lot of people (including me) are using Stripes along with other Spring services (transactions, persistence, URL security) and Stripes coexists happily with those. Chris.

[Stripes-users] posting to SSL
Hey folks - Are there any best practices out there for dealing with switching the browser between HTTP and HTTPs. I'd added some subclasses of stripes:for, stripes:link and RedirectResolution that take a secure=true/false parameter but the 1.5 upgrade seems to break them a little in some cases. Anyone else have a good way of dealing with this? The typical usage example is, I want my log in and change password forms to submit over SSL no matter what (as long as the server supports SSL), but want the rest of the URL's to be root relative.

Hi Karsten - Thanks, this looks really nicely done. Our requirements are slightly more, eh, exotic. (Our use of SSL is something our user pay for, so we configure it by a setting in the context.)

Re: [Stripes-users] Passing Stripes name to JS
One other way that I've done this (for more complex Javascript data
structures) is to use the JSON libraries with a JSTL function. It's
nice and general.
Create a JSTL function object like this:
public static final String json(String key, Object value) {
JSONObject json = new JSONObject();
json.put(key, value);
return json.toString();
}
tld:
json
com.evernote.web.tag.EFunctions
boolean json(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object)
and then in the JSP:
var gSearch = ${e:json('search',actionBean.search)}.search;

Re: [Stripes-users] Reading a properties file
Apache Commons configurations:
http://commons.apache.org/configuration/howto_properties.html
Is a really nice set of libraries that is a bit better than just using

your mind about where you're putting your properties.
If I remember correctly the reason for the URL is a legacy from the

It's no better than using the InputStream.

[Stripes-users] Good design patterns for multiple presentation layers with Stripes
Hey folks - I'm was wondering if anyone has come up with an elegant solutions to handle multiple presentation layers with stripes. We have a web and mobile web versions of our application (sometimes a JSON version too). Many of the functions, login, forgot password, etc. take the same parameters, use the same validation but dispatch to different JSP's. The best approach we've found is creating abstract ActionBean which manages validation, interaction with domain objects and persistence layers. The subclasses generally just implement abstract events handlers that return resolution to the correct JSP. The JSP's stripes:form/useBean refer to the concrete classes. This works ok, anyone got a better pattern? -- Register Now & Save for Velocity, the Web Performance & Operations Conference from O'Reilly Media.

Re: [Stripes-users] Prefered Resolution to serve a zip file ?
If you have the zip file in RAM you can construct a
ByteArrayInputStream();
something like this:
byte a[]= "foo".getBytes();
ByteArrayInputStream i = new ByteArrayInputStream(a);
return new StreamingResolution("application/zip", i);
If the file is static and stored within the web app, you may just be
able to make a ForwardResolution() assuming the mime type is mapped.
The documentation provides a nice example showing to really stream the
content using an inner class:
http://stripes.sourceforge.net/docs/current/javadoc/net/sourceforge/stripes/action/StreamingResolution.html
return new StreamingResolution("text/xml") {
public void stream(HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
response.getOutputStream().write(...);
}
}.setFilename("your-filename.xml");
In this case, you can write the bytes of the zip file using:
response.getOutputStream().write(...);

[Stripes-users] Localization and MessageFormat
Hey folks - I'm trying to get a better understanding of how the StripesResources file works. I've been using it for a while but I've recently run into the problem with the ' character.

In my StripesResources.properties file I have (for example): foo1=Foo's foo2=Foo''s foo3=Foo\'s In my JSP's I have: The page returns: Foo's Foo''s Foo's This kinda makes sense but I see that the Stripes SimpleMessage class implementation is supposed to use: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/text/MessageFormat.html The reason this is a problem is we're trying to share a translation memory database between Stripes and GWT and it seems like the strings are represented differently.

Re: [Stripes-users] Feature Request for label selection
Hey Simon - You've got lots of options... one would be to just use HTML: "/> This will invoke the same event but set the value to be the localization string passed in by the JSTL localization tag. There's nothing too magical about the stripes:submit tag.

Re: [Stripes-users] Stripes and GWT
Evernote (4.7+ million users to date) uses both GWT and Stripes in our web app. We basically use them as two totally independent components -- they don't interact at all aside from using Stripes to generate the page that references the GWT resources. We haven't had any problems but generally they are two totally different approaches. Stripes generally assumes that the page reloads and GWT assumes that all the communications happens from a single page. We've used Stripes for all the registration, account management and commerce operations and GWT for the more dynamic UI elements. We also use Stripes for the mobile web (ie. non-Javascript) UI's. If we need to add some dynamic behavior (like checking if a username is taken or other real time client side validation) to the stripes pages we use jQuery and just return JSONObjects as a Resolution. Architecturally we have a service layer that both GWT and the Stripes action beans call into. This seems to work fine, no regrets but we haven't put a lot of thought into integrating the two technologies.

Re: [Stripes-users] Anyway to Redirect to an external page?
In your example you're changing the host name in the URL (not the path). This
really can only be done using a "redirect" (technically an HTTP response code
303 or 301) since the client is essentially talking to a different host. In
your LoginAction class you'll want a method that looks like this:
public Resolution login() {
return new
RedirectResolution("https://subdomain1.mydomain.com/userHome.action";);
}
"re-writing", made famous by the apache mod_rewrite, has the ability to do
"Forwards" which are processed within the HTTP server without negotiation with
the browser and "Redirects" which are processed by the browser. Forwards
(available in Stripes using ForwardResolution) are particularly good at
directing a request to a JSP presentation components.
Using a RedirectResolution on a successful login is a best practice. It makes
the application behave more predictably if the user reloads the
"UserHome.action" page after submitting the login. Generally speaking, it's
always good to follow a "POST" request with a redirect.
Much of the behavior of mod_rewrite can be emulated by Java Servlet filters and
operates independently of Stripes.
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-4.1-doc/servletapi/javax/servlet/Filter.html
Stripes has lots of great utilities for managing redirects and forwards. Look
at the implementation of the Resolution interface for the details.

Re: [Stripes-users] UTF8 from form to mySQL

We're doing all the same stuff and haven't encountered any problems. Here's a
few tidbits from our configuration.
In our mySQL connector we use:
