Struts TLP Sub-projects (RE: Making Struts Build Easier)

2004-03-22 Thread James Holmes
+1 on this!!

You hit the nail on the head.  Many people (mostly managers) are reluctant
to adopt Struts add-ons because they are not perceived as having the same
tried and true stamp as the official Struts core.  I think doing this
would be a huge boon for Struts and would foster a lot of the development
interest that's been talked about over the past couple of days.

Also, +1 on having the creators of those projects become committers so long
as they've shown a protracted history in maintaining their respective
projects and have an interest to continue doing so.

Here's something else to mull over: 

Now that Struts is a TLP, we might want to talk about whether we want to ask
the most popular open source Struts extensions -- like Struts Menu,
Workflow, Stxx, SSL, and TestCase -- whether they would like to donate their
code to the ASF and live as Struts opt subprojects. This would be a
continuation of what we started with Tiles, Validator, and Nested, which are
all favorites with our community. People working on such packages might be
brought on as Struts Committers, since they have proved they have what it
takes to run a project, and after an appropriate period, later invited to
join the Struts PMC. 

IMHO, when people talk about JSF replacing Struts, they are unaware of the
true breadth of the Struts platform. Perhaps it's time we made sure people
know how much they are missing :)

A sad truth: In working with various teams managing larger projects, I've
found a surprising reluctance to use extensions that were not distributed by
the Struts project itself. By giving these very fine extensions the nod,
we can make them available to a greater number of Struts teams, to
everyone's benefit. If we don't help make these extensions available to
everyone, then we end up hiding our light under a bushel.

Now, I haven't brought this idea up to any of the other Committers, and have
no idea how any else will feel about it. But it is something that I would
personally like to work towards -- once we have our existing code
rationalized. (First things first!)

2004-03-22 Thread James Holmes
Not exactly sure what you're referring to here, but am guessing you mean
would there be an offer for integrators/embedders to become committers?  I
personally think this makes sense for cases like Expresso.

My point was to show my support for Ted's proposal (of sorts) that projects
like stxx and sslext become sub projects of the top-level Struts project.

Would the same principle work with people who have taken Struts
and integrated or embedded as another framework? Having spent
some type integrating 1.1 into Expresso Framework in 2002, in
our case can we be classified as Struts extenders? Also some
repository will not want to become a sub project of Struts
because of logical sense, politics or legal entity status?

RE: [VOTE] Struts as an Apache Top Level Project

+1 for TLP

From: Martin Cooper [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
Sent: Saturday, March 06, 2004 2:20 PM
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: [VOTE] Struts as an Apache Top Level Project

Following up on a brief thread on this list in December [1], Craig, Ted
and I have put together a draft resolution to the board of directors [2],
along with a cover letter [3], that would promote Struts to an Apache
top-level project (TLP).

The main reasons for moving to a TLP are described on the wiki [4]. In
Craig's words, The short answer, though, is we will be in charge of our
own releases (currently, the Jakarta PMC is the only body legally
recognized to vote on releases of *any* software under Jakarta). In
practice, we can really just continue doing what we've always done.

As most of you are no doubt aware, several Jakarta sub-projects have
already made the transition to TLPs, including Ant, Avalon, Gump, James,
Log4J, Maven, OJB, and Torque. Most Jakarta PMC members seem to be in
favour of the migrations, largely because a single PMC cannot possibly
oversee a code base the size of all of Jakarta.

If you're OK with Struts being a top-level Apache project, please respond
to this thread with either a +1 or +0. Otherwise, please reply with your
concerns. When we previously discussed this, it did not seem like anyone
was opposed to the idea, but if anyone is, now is the time to speak up.

The resolution as drafted lists the Struts Committers who could
reasonably be considered active at this time. Of course, we should not
put anyone on the PMC without their buy-in, so the final resolution would
only list the Committers who responded to the Vote with a +1 or +0.

The draft resolution also leaves the name of the Vice President blank.
Craig seems like the logical candidate, and is willing to act in this
capacity, but we wanted the VP selection to be a community decision. So,
please also respond with your nomination for Vice President, Apache
Struts.

Here's my +1 on the resolution as drafted, and my +1 for Craig as Vice
President.

Re: [Short Term Plan] Struts to depend on Validator 1.1.0

2003-09-26 Thread James Holmes
+1

 Over 99% of commons-validator usage is through struts. In fact it may be
  100%.
 I feel the only way to really promote commons-validator to Beta status
 is to make the nightly build of struts depend on the 1.1.0 version which
 has  released in August
 and been designated an Alpha. I propose that this Sunday Sept 28 th that
  we switch over to the 1.1.0
 version of Validator, then quickly release Version 1.1.1 which has had
 additional numerious
 improvements in it's Javascript validation.

 Othewise I honestly see how Validator 1.1.0 is ever going to get enough
 usage
 to ever be promoted to beta status.

alt attribute on HTML Tag Library tags

I noticed that many of the HTML Tag Library tags have alt and altKey
attributes available.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think only the
img tag in HTML has that option.  Any reason not to remove them from

 No, Struts is definitely not dead.  

=:) Those rumors have been greatly exaggerated! The Struts Committers

Commons components and all. But the Struts Community has been shipping, 
shipping, shipping.

For example, Don Brown is shipping extensions for using Struts with 
Cocoon and the Bean Scripting Framework, and as of today, Wildcard 
Actions. Mathias just released an update to his very useful workflow 
extension. James keeps bringing out Console after Console. Just to name 
a few. (Need to get that Resource page updated before final ships!)

And of course, there are the long-standing XLST, Velocity, SSL, and 
JUnit extension for Struts, doclet extensions for Struts, database 
extension for Struts, and surely many things I haven't heard of yet!

And, as Craig pointed out, Struts is not the only place where people are

developing MVC frameworks. WebWorks demonstrated the usefulness of a 
unified Controller (or Action) objects. Other frameworks like Maverick

and JPublish are showing us how very different approaches to handling 
actions (as well as screens) can all be used within the same framework.

The point is that no matter how good JSF will be, or how good Struts is 
now, there will always be more dreamed of than what we happen to stuff

in our distributions! There will always be gaps where open-source 
developers, like us, can jump in and start sharing our solutions.

This is true not only of Java, but of any platform. For example, most of

us know that .NET lacks many of the high-level tools we all use and 
love. OSS, like nature, abhors a vacuum. So, OSS volunteers have been 
busily porting many of our favorite tools to the dark side. Packages 
like Maverick, Velocity, and Log4*, again to name a few, are all now 
making life easier for our .NET brethen. OSS works because places like 
the ASF and SourceForge *let* it work. And it works everywhere, even on 
vendor strangle-hold platforms like .NET.

Over the past three years, the 40+ developers who have directly 
contributed to Struts -- and the thousands of others who helping out on 
Bugzilla, and the list, and the other support forums -- have proven 
(once again) that community-supported development does work, and that 
we'd all be poorer without it!

New specifications, like JSF, just give us fertile new ground where we 
can continue to do what we do best -- share the wealth!

Some things never change =:)

  I'm not going to vote right now, because I'm trying to work 
  through the
  problems and see if I can get them fixed. Ted, how long do we 
  have to find
  fixes and still allow you enough time to get a release out?
  
  If we take the 'name' row out of the bean-cookie.jsp test, then the
  remainder of that test works fine on Tomcat 3.3.1. I propose 
  to go ahead and
  check that in unless I hear any objection.
  
  Now I'm looking at the logic-compare.jsp problem.
 
 OK, I have this one nailed. It has to do with the size of the 
 page being too
 big for Tomcat 3.3.1 to handle. I've split the page into two 
 by pulling out
 the numeric tests into a separate page, and both pages now 
 work. Again, I
 propose to check this in unless I hear any objection.
 
 Now for the Tiles problems...

Fixed. Time to release RC2! :-)

   In final testing of RC2, some compatibility issues have 
 been found 
   between Tomcat 3.3.1 and the struts-exercise-taglib 
   application as well 
   as the tiles-documentation application.
   
   Martin Cooper has been looking into the problems and has 
   found that for 
   the struts-exercise-taglibs cookie test, it is the
   
  jsp:getProperty name=sess property=name/
   
   expression that is failing.
   
   The jsp:getProperty tags earlier on the page succeeded. The only
   difference seems to be that the earlier ones all have setters 
   as well as 
   getters in the Tomcat CookieFacade class, whereas there is 
   only a getter 
   for 'name'. So this actually looks like some kind of 
   JSP/reflection bug, 
   not related to Struts. (The bean:cookie tag must have 
   worked, because 
   we know the jsp:getProperty tag is trying to access a cookie!)
   
   Also, the (rather complex) comparison test is killing the JVM 
   when run 
   under TC3.
   
   In the Tiles application, servlet exceptions are being noted. One 
   example is the extendedDefinitionTag page, but there may 
 be others.
   
   Unless fixes to these problems are immediately forthcoming, 
  I propose 
   that we document the issues and release Stuts 1.1 beta 5.
   
   By getting this milestone out to the community, we would have 
   a better 
   chance of resolving the remaining issues so that we can go 
  to Struts 
   1.1. final as soon as possible
   
   This proposal has my +1.

Subject: VOTE (enough already!): Release Struts RC2 with FileUpload Beta 2


 From: Martin Cooper [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 

First off, big thanks to Martin for adopting FileUpload and getting this
puppy back in shape.

 Now, about the Struts 1.1 RC2 release. The problem is the 
 staging needed to get FileUpload out the door. It's currently 
 at Beta 1, and the code base in CVS has some methods that 
 have been deprecated since Beta 1. The deprecated methods 
 need to be removed before 1.0 Final, which means that we need 
 a Beta 2 to publicise the deprecations. Then they can be 
 removed in an RC1, shortly to be followed (hopefully) by 1.0 Final.
 
 Much as I would like to see Struts 1.1 RC2 happen before 
 JavaOne, I just don't see how that can happen, given the 
 steps that FileUpload has to go through before a final release.

Does this strike anyone but me as an example of the victory of process
over sanity?

Why does a deprecation/removal of some methods require a new beta?  If
your code depends on the deprecated methods, you can stick with whatever
you're using now until you can fix your code, and then use the release.
If you don't, you can evaluate the RC, and an entire step can be saved.

The entire Struts 1.1 release has been a Kafka-esq adventure in strict
adherence to a set of rules that, IMHO, has done nothing but add months
of delay to an already terminally late release.  It's hard to believe
there's something that makes the JCP look speedy, but consider that in
the time we've been struggling to get 1.1 out the door, JSF has gone
almost completely from proposal to EA.

Open source is supposed to be speedy and responsive, instead we're
starting to make Microsoft look like a speed demon.  The Apache rules
serve a good purpose, to prevent shoddy releases.  But at this point,
we've got a major release hanging fire on (frankly) some relatively
obscure supporting packages which aren't even used by the majority of
the user community.

If I were benevolent dictator for a day, I'd do a 1.1 RC2 now with the
FileUpload Beta 2.  But, since we live in an enlightened society, I'm
putting it up for a vote.

As we've been reminded recently, this type of voice is non-veto-able,
lazy majority

SO:

+1 - Yes, release Struts RC2 with FileUpload 1.1 Beta 2 once Martin
releases it.

0 - Eh

-1 - I prefer to delay Struts RC2 until FileUpload is in final release.

The 72 hour voting cutoff is 3AM Eastern June 1

Hi everybody,
  
Code formating is an ever ending debate. We,
 as experienced
   developers, all have our preferences.  When
 there is several users as
   in Struts, there is a polite rule: do not
 reformate code of others
   just because they don't follow your criteria.
I have discover such reformating in code that
 I have written. The
   problem is that I don't recognize the code
 anymore, it takes me more
   time to do something, and comparisons tools
 can't work anymore ;-(
I don't want to debate about the right or
 the best code
   formating. I just ask for the respect of each
 others.
So, for those having an automatic code
 formatter, please disable it
   when playing with struts code, and resist to
 the tentation ;-)

   Subject: Re: Struts At ApacheCon 2002
  
   Craig,
  
   It was nice meeting you and attending your
 Struts 1.1 session on
   Tuesday.  I'm curious what came of the BOF to
 discuss the future of Struts.
  
  
  Well, there were only a few of us, and no video
 equipment :-), but it was
  a good discussion.
  
  We basically walked through some of the items that
 are already on the
  STATUS page sections on the 1.2 roadmap (likely to
 stay backwards
  compatible) and the 2.0 roadmap (likely to be
 rebuilt on top of Filters).
  However, I've added some items I've been thinking
 about, one of which
  makes your message quite timely.
  
  I think it is time to start packaging tools and
 generators with Struts to
  help the developer -- either as standalone
 packages included for
  convenience, or integrated into the architecture
 of the package.  It
  wouldbe interesting to explore how XDoclet fits in
 to this vision.
  
   I'd be really interested in your thoughts on the
 XDoclet work I've done,
   especially in the Struts Validator realm.  I'm
 generating validation.xml
   completely, and also all the form bean
 definitions in our system.  I
   also use XDoclet to process form beans for a
 one-time starter code
   generation of a JSP page (templated to our
 specific look and feel) for a
   specified form bean, as well as the resource
 properties that can be used
   as a starting point for the application resource
 properties for the
   field labels.  Its amazing amount of generation
 just on the Struts-side
   of things, but we use XDoclet for even more than
 that too.
  
  
  I haven't done a huge amount of review, but I like
 the basic notion of
  generating things like this.  I'm still getting my
 head around the idea of
  doing this from special tags in the source, but
 I'll get there ...
  
   As for DynaActionForm's I still don't get
 their benefit.  Do you use
   them?  Or right ActionForm subclasses?  Its even
 less code to write to
   do a form bean for me, because my IDE generates
 all the getter/setters,
   and being able to generate validation.xml makes
 it so worthwhile.  :)
  
  
  I can see your point in a world where the cost of
 creating standard
  ActionForm beans is so low (because the tool does
 it for you).  However,
  there's a couple of themes that are still
 involved:
  
  * Lots of people are still stuck in a world where
 they generate
these things by hand (even though some level of
 tooling support
is freely available).  For those folks, not
 having to create these
classes is a real benefit.
  
  * Even in a tool-generated world, it's simpler for
 a tool to generate
just the struts-config.xml fragment than the
 whole bean classes --
to say nothing of not needing to compile
 anything.
  
  * You should still be able to generate
 validation.xml if you start
from a common definition of the fields.  One of
 the things I want
to investigate is embedding the validation rules
 directly in the
form-bean element, for example, so everything
 about the bean
is in one place.  (In a high-level UML based
 tool, for example,
all this stuff would be part of the metadata
 about a particular
form captured in the model.)
  
  * DynaBean in 1.1 only solves part of the
 dynamic needs people
have.  The next logical step is an abstraction
 that does not predefine
the set of properties at all (consider a SQL
 browser that dynamically
creates properties for each row based on the
 column names included in
your SELECT).  We'll be able to build this on
 top of the existing
DynaBean infrastructure much more easily than we
 could on top of
standard JavaBeans.
  
   Take care and hopefully I'll get a chance to
 chat with you further at
   some point during the week at ApacheCon.

   the build.properties if you wanted.  I didn't
 think any

  I think it might be feasible to build a zip file
 containing all the
  distributions that are needed, but not the Struts
 build.properties
  file.  That would at least make part of the
 process easier.
 
 But which versions would you include?  For example,
 I build Struts
 nightlies against the nightly builds of the commons
 packages (so it
 changes every day) -- but you'd want to use released
 versions if you were
 building a formal Struts distribution.

Re: Struts with style

2002-10-29 Thread James Holmes
Looks good, however, like Ted says we're headed
towards Maven which has new LnF/stylesheets for
Jakarta sites.  I spent some time taking the
stylesheets/graphics from Maven-built sites and
applying them to Struts.  It looked great.  I'm no CSS
wizard though and had a couple outstanding issues
where some of the formatting of the page was off.

I would recommend taking the style sheets from Maven
and applying them to the Struts pages and then sending
another message with a link to that.  It should be
easy to do since all of our pages already go through
XSL.

 Have we decided that we don't need that attribute

 good discussion, everyone ...
 
 I've been thinking about this a little more and I'm
 going to backtrack a
 little bit We will very likely be running into
 this same problem when
 XHTML 2.0 comes out.  XHTML 2.0 will NOT be
 backwards compatible with XHTML
 1.1 (For more on this, see the W3C site or various
 XHTML lists ... i don't
 think we want to get into it here... =)  ).
 
 At the point of XHTML 2.0, we obviously won't want
 to make everything XHTML
 2.0 compliant ONLY.
 
 Perhaps we can have some global setting that defines
 the DOCTYPE you want to
 use:  XHTML 1.0 Strict, HTML 3.2, HTML 4.01
 Transitional, etc.
 
 All tags could then know internally whether or not
 they support the
 specified DOCTYPE, and output the appropriate HTML.
 
 For example, we know that in HTML 3.2, forms have a
 name attribute, but in
 XHTML, they have an id attribute.  Struts would
 output whichever was
 specified...  We also know that all HTML versions
 will support br /, so we
 can always output that.
 
 To start, we can pick what Struts already supports,
 which I would guess is
 HTML 4.01 Transitional.  If someone wants to support
 a lower version, they
 can build it in.
 
 Obviosuly i'm not proposing this for the 1.1
 release, as it requires a lot
 more thought  discussion
 
 This would definately futureproof Struts and not tie
 it in to any particular
 version.  Also, it would allow a struts developer to
 say .. Well, all my
 customers are using current User-Agents now, so let
 me upgrade my site to
 XHTML1.0  They can do it at a flip of a switch.
 
 Does anyone think this is
 ridiculous/feasible/useful?  Is this overkill?

  I guess I just don't see how this is a serious
 change and how existing
 apps
  behavior would change.  In my experience, over 95%
 of clients use Netscape
  4.x+ or IE which both support this grammar.  Many
 other people use Opera
  which also supports this.
 
 
 You seem awfully confident that you know what client
 devices and programs
 are being used by all Struts apps :-).  It also goes
 totally against the
 grain of how Struts enhancements have always been
 implemented -- leave the
 default behavior the same as the previous version,
 and enable the new
 feature with a parameter of some sort.
 
 Let me say this more clearly:
 
 -1 on unconditionally changing the output to emit
 the /.
 
 +0 on making this behavior dependent on xhtml=true
 in the
outermost html:html tag.

o.a.s.validator.StrutsValidator 
o.a.s.validator.StrutsValidatorUtil
 
 Only the o.a.s.t.html.JavascriptValidatorTag uses

 And o.a.s.util.StrutsValidator is not used anywhere

It's as official as I know of (all I did was a query

not a Struts bug.  Are we counting bugs for dependent

  It would be nice to have ID attributes added to at

 ID fields are very

  The same may be true for the Validator DTD (such

Re: Struts Website Look and Feel

2002-07-24 Thread James Holmes

Just wanted to give a quick update on this...

I have this 99% done for the resources section.  I
basically took the stuff from some of the other
projects with the new LF and reverse engineered it
into stylesheets/resources.xsl.  The project.xml and
individual .xml files stay the same.  Just a few new
graphics and CSS stylesheets files.

Only problem I'm having is that the font size on the
page is not correct.  Funny thing is I'm explicitly
setting any font attributes in the page and neither do
the other project's pages, but for some reason the
font isn't right. I'm going to continue to tinker with
it.  The pages look really good with the new Lf.

   Subject: Struts Website Look and Feel
  
   I've noticed that some of the other Jakarta
  projects
   have taken on a new Look and Feel.  I saw this
 for
   BCEL project.
  
   Craig/Ted: Is there a place to get more details
 on
   this?  Is there a roadmap/requirement for when
 all
   projects should switch over to it?  I can try
 and
   tackle this for the Struts pages.
  
  
  For the Jakarta web site, check out the
  jakarta-site2 module from CVS --
  that's what generates it.  The incoming data
 format
  is XML, transformed by
  Anakia (from Velocity) and/or DVSL -- I don't
  remember the details at the
  moment.
  
  You'll also notice that some project-level
  documentation is now being
  generated with Maven (Turbine et. al. and a bunch
 of
  the Commons projects
  use this).  Maven is a pretty intriguing tool that
  tries to manage a bunch
  of stuff for the develoeprs (everything from
  syntax/style checks to
  automated test runs to generating docs), which
 most
  people do with custom
  build.xml scripts, in a manner that's consistent
  across projects.  It
  works by delegating the grunt work to shared
  scripts, so when you update a
  Maven version all your projects immediately
 benefit.
   See
  http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/maven for more
  info.
  
  I'm quite interested in exploring Maven as the
 build

 Hi,
 
 I am not clear on how I can handle different user
 rights in Struts. This is how
 I perceive it to be:
 
 There are different sections on my
 (Struts-powered) website, for example:
 
 Section A: Handling employee data.
 Section B: Handling company information.
 Section C: System administration.
 
 (A page can contain elements of different sections.)
 
 Each user has their own access level for each
 section which is one of the
 following:
 
 Level 0: No rights.
 Level 1: Read-only.
 Level 2: Write.
 
 For example, if an input field X belongs to section
 A and the user has A=0
 permission, X should not be displayed. For A=1, X
 should be simple HTML text.
 For A=2, it should be the input field.
 
 Can something like this be handled with Struts? If
 so, how? If not, what's the
 best I can get in terms of user access management?
 
 Thanks.

 b) i'd prefer to look for commonality in the 2

 this may also have advantages for wml or xforms?

 Struts has a nice way to map named paths via
 ActionMappings defined in the 
 struts-config.xml file. Some of us may decide to
 implement view logic as an 
 Action over a Servlet to leverage the ActionMapping
 capabilities. Thus some of 
 these actions may not have an ActionForm associated
 to them. In a template-like 
 implementation some jsp pages may need to *include*
 an Action that decides 
 which template body to include. The problem is
 *including* an Action will 
 result in invokation of the ActionServlet which
 performs a *forward* to the 
 ActionForward path. Problems occur if the content of
 jsp page containing the 
 jsp:incude call had begun to be committed to the
 client. See SRV.8.4 in the 
 Servlet2.3 spec.
 
 The ActionServlet needs to be smart enough to
 perform an *include* to its 
 ActionForward path if the ActionServlet itself had
 been included. One way the 
 ActionServlet can determine if it has been included
 is to check for the request 
 attribute javax.servlet.include.request_uri. If
 its null then it is free to 
 *forward* to the ActionForward path. If its not
 null, then it should *include* 
 the ActionForward path.

 Often I find myself having

  public Integer getMyInt() {return myInt;}
  public void setMyInt(Integer myInt) { this.myInt =
 myInt; }
 
 in my ActionForm.
 
 The input for myInt comes from a JSP page using the
 html:text tag.
 But since html:text is using String as the data
 type I've to assign the
 value to
 
  private String myIntString;
 
 and do the conversion in validate().
 
 It would be great if one could specify:
 
  html:text property=myInt
 type=java.lang.Integer/
 
 since Integer can take a String in the constructor.
 If a
 NumberFormatException is thrown a stack-trace is ok
 to present to the user
 IMO.
 
 Yes, I know that one should use the
 validate(ActionMapping mapping,
 ServletRequest request) for this kind of job -- but
 in simple cases this
 would be a great feature to have (and no I wouldn't
 use this feature in
 production; only for development).

Da: Emaho, Ghoot [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]
Inviato: venerdì 31 maggio 2002 12.03
A: Struts Users Mailing List
Oggetto: RE: DTD Question - SIMPLE SOLUTION


A simple way of bypassing the need to access the DTD externally (as the
Struts 'automatic' resolution within the jar does NOT always work - see mail
archives) is to change the DOCTYPE def to something like the following:

!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC -//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application
2.2//EN dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd

where the dtd directory is a subdirectory of your WEB-INF directory. Copy
the web_app dtd into that directory and it will be found there. Nice and
simple.

NOTE it is still defined as 'PUBLIC'. There have been other posts about
using the 'SYSTEM' definition and looking locally, but this doesnt always
work - depending on which server/setup you have.

However, the suggested method works all the time and on as many different
environments as I've tried it.

Tiles DTD

2002-07-10 Thread James Holmes

While we're on the subject of DTDs I wanted to propose
that we rename the Tiles DTD from tiles-config.dtd to
tiles-config_1_1.dtd to be consistent.  Now that Tiles
is in the core I think there should be a distinction
between versions of the DTDs.  Already the Tiles DTD
has more than one *deprecated* elements and/or

Thoughts?

 when the project runs and the button is pressed ,
 the action handler class's perform method is not
 called. 
 What else I need to do to achieve this ?
 
 Is there any other setting ? My action class is
 derived from the Action class. Let me know if I am
 missing anything.

 Hi,
 
 Supose you have a Tiles component definition
 composed (a) by two JSP pages.
 There's a struts form in a page that maps to an
 action defined in struts.xml
 file. This action defines several forwards that map
 to other Tiles component
 definitions. 
 
 Now supose that you want reuse the same form in
 another tiles component
 definition (b), but since this form is actually in a
 different definition,
 when posted, using the same action, the forwards
 can't be the same than in
 the first case. Let's say it must forward to the
 definition where it was
 created this time (b).
 
 I'm sure there must be some workaround to this
 problem. Any ideas?

  Hello, 
  
  I'm an italian java developer, and i'm now happily
 using struts since

  I've made a modified version ot the ErrorsTag
 which is compatible with

 errors.separator
  between errors to better customize the output and
 a format attribute
  to switch between 
  
  errors.header
  errors.separator
  errors.footer
  
  and
  
  errors.format.header
  errors.format.separator
  errors.format.footer
  
  so the developer can easily use different
 formatting in different pages.
  
  I've also made a new tag which i named
 ErrorPresent which is a logic tag
  that signals the presence of errors or of
 field-specific errors.
  Do you think it can be useful for the project?
  
  If the team is interested i can post the patch.
  
  Hope I'm on topic.

The 1.1 config file DTD at:

 * Path-based action mapping in 1.1
 One of the architectural advances from Struts 1.0 to
 Struts 1.1 involved 
 supporting multiple applications with a single
 Struts controller 
 servlet.  As part of the initial implementation of
 this functionality, 
 some configuration flexibility was lost: the
 multi-application 
 controller only supports mapping URLs to Struts
 actions by extension 
 (i.e. *.do) while Struts 1.0 also supported
 mapping by path prefix 
 (i.e. /do/*).  After James Young asked if any
 fixes were in the works 
 [1], Craig McClanahan pointed out some of the
 complexities involved 
 [2].  Ted Husted described a possible solution and
 asked for feedback 
 about whether to pursue it. [3]

 * Tiles add-in to moved to core
 Craig McClanahan moved the Tiles add-in into the
 core CVS source tree 
 from the contrib directory.[4] Ted Husted
 initiated a discussion about 
 some code modifications to Tiles to make it work
 more closely with the 
 core code base.[5]

 * FormBean: Interface or Class?
 The discussion about whether the FormBean concept
 was best implemented 
 as an interface or a class resurfaced, and Craig
 McClanahan wrote a 
 decisive response explaining the motivation for
 maintaining it as a 
 class.[6]  In summary, designing FormBean as an
 interface would 
 facilitate inappropriate tangling of the model
 layer with the view 
 layer, while making it a class of its own encourages
 clean separation of 
 those layers.

 * Struts and the Java Standard Tag Library (JSTL)
 After announcing the 1.0 release of the JSTL, Shawn
 Bayern offered 
 assistance towards integrating the rich Struts tag
 libraries with the 
 JSTL, which in many cases offers equivalent
 functionality.[7]  Craig 
 McClanahan indicated that a likely goal for a post
 1.1 release of Struts 
 would be thorough integration with the JSTL
 expression language, and 
 aiming towards an eventual replacement of the Struts
 bean and logic 
 tag libraries with the equivalent tags from JSTL.[8]

 requirements for the next beta

 improving documentation of 
 new Struts features. Committers responded  promptly

 further contributions.

  Was just updating some code in Struts Console and
  noticed that the message-resources element
 doesn't
  allow for child set-property elements.  This
 seems
  to be an oversight to me as every other major
 element
  has this.
 
  Shouldn't users be able to set properties on those
  classes too?  I think so.
 
  I'll fix the DTD and related files if everyone
 agrees.
 
 
 While you are in messing around, I noticed that the
 roles attribute is
 missing from the definition of the action element.
  Since we support it
 in the underlying ActinoConfig, it certainly makes
 sense to allow it to be
 configured in the DTD -- could you add that as well?

 Are the other committers interested in working

 One thing I'd like to add to the TODO list is a
 review of all our custom

 -- particularly in
 the area of tag pooling and when the bodyContent can
 be accessed.  The
 recent work on Jasper2 (in Tomcat 4.1.x), which will
 support tag pooling,

2002-06-26 Thread James Holmes

Before I commit the patch for this bug I wanted to see
what the group thinks about changing the functionality
of this method.

Are we going to be breaking any code anywhere?  I
don't think we will, but just wanted to run it up the
flag pole first.

1.1 Config File DTD discrepancy

2002-06-26 Thread James Holmes

Was just updating some code in Struts Console and
noticed that the message-resources element doesn't
allow for child set-property elements.  This seems
to be an oversight to me as every other major element
has this.

Shouldn't users be able to set properties on those
classes too?  I think so.

I'll fix the DTD and related files if everyone agrees.

Nightly Build JavaDocs

2002-06-25 Thread James Holmes

The nightly build JavaDocs appear to be out of sync. 
Do these get updated automagically each night when the
builds are created?

If not, can someone with website update privilege
update these?

 The news page would then mirror the announcement

Re: Dynamic Property Dispatch

2002-06-21 Thread James Holmes

Daniel,

Take a look at the DynaActionForm stuff in Struts 1.1b
or the nightly builds.  The DynaActionForm can handle
dynamic form fields.

There has been much discussion about this lately on
the user list.  Take a look at the archives to find
past messages.

 Hi,
 
 i've a feature request for
 org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm for a little
 bit more dynamic dispatch of properties. The current
 state is that for each
 property A the corresonding setA / getA methods are
 invoked upon read/write.
 There's nothing wrong with that. However i must
 deploy form fields that are
 unknown to me at compile-time. Thus i cannot write a
 Bean with the
 appropriate methods. A simple solution would be to
 introduce methods with
 the following signature:
 
 public void setProperty(String propertyName, Object
 propertyValue)
 public Object getProperty(String propertyName)
 
 which is of course not terribly type safe but would
 solve my problem.
 
 And forgive me if this has already been discussed (i
 couldn't find anything
 in the Archives).

Re: Resource Page...

2002-05-24 Thread James Holmes

I agree wholeheartedly with your first point. 
However, I think that the second point might be a bad
thing.  The reason I say this is because people
validate Struts based off of who's running/using it. 
There's probably a question a week on the user list
where someone is trying to convince their boss to use
Struts and wants example sites and companies using it
for purposes of proving that Struts is a tried and
true product.  I also think that most of theses sites
are not *able* to list the info you mention for
whatever reason (marketing doesn't allow etc.)

My vote is +++1 for point 1 and -1 for point 2.

Just my $0.02.

Re: Struts Next

2002-01-21 Thread James Holmes

+++1.

I was hunting around last week for docs on how to use
the new Declaritive Exception stuff for integration
into Struts Console and having quick access to the
docs would have been very useful.

Just my .02.

 Right now, we're exploding the struts-documentation
 WAR to create the
 Web site. 
 
 We've been trying to keep the latest release
 front-and-center, mainly
 because we seem to have a large base of professional
 teams that cannot
 use unreleased software. 
 
 How about if we start to carry a copy of the
 documentation for the
 latest formal release -AND- the nighly build on the
 Website. The nightly
 build could be on top, but have an absolute link to
 the documentation
 for the prior release on the Website
 (jakarta.apache.org/struts/1.0.1/...). This way
 people who want to scope
 the current release first (since that's the one they
 would have to
 propose today), can get easy access to that, but we
 still have the
 latest and greatest out-front.
 
 We also need to be scrupulous about marking new code
 and documentation
 with @since statements. I've started to fix these as
 I find them, and
 will continue to do so. 
 
 I've got a start on the release notes, and then will
 look updating the
 User Guide from those. 
 
 I've also started a News and Status page in the
 nightly build, and will
 continue to work on that. This will supply the
 material for the new
 Jakarta newsletter.

p.s. I saw the other thread on the multi-app

work! (Do you sleep? :) I should check it out

   I've got one more useful new goody on my
 workbench - an ActionForm
   implementation that uses the new DynaBean APIs
 in the Commons version of
   BeanUtils that let you define form beans without
 having to write all the
   properties in individual bean classes.
  
   After that, maybe I can get some sleep.  :-)
  
  Well, I'm fairly well rested :), and cant block
 out some time this
  weekend to start catching up the User Guide with
 the latest changes, so
  we will be ready to go to Release Candidate
 soonest. Also need to put in
  more Since 1.1 markers. Seems that we missed a few
 :(
  
  The MultiApp support coupled with DynaBeans will
 be a giant leap
  forward. Fighting over the struts-config and
 twiddling with ActionForms
  is the two leading issues when I talk to teams
 that are considering
  Struts, or using in on their first project. Of
 course, these same teams
  can't use unreleased software, so I'm eager to
 move this along any way
  I can. (Including doing the Release Manager thing,
 if that helps.)
