Re: Re[2]: Locale access from within a bean?
Thanks for that, Oleg, now here's my take on this.
I have created another tag called WriteNumberTag which contains lots of code
stolen from WriteTag and MessageTag, and contains a mix of parameters from
the pair of them.
Usage is like WriteTag, except that you *must* supply a property parameter.
e.g.
What will then happen is as well as calling getValue() on the mybankaccount
bean, it will also call getValuenumberformat(). This returns a string which
is a key into your application resources. The value of this key represents
the format string which is passed into a DecimalFormat object. e.g.
mynumberformat.test1=#,##0.00;(#)
The value returned from getValue() is then formatted with the resultant
string. Note the getValue function could either return a primative (such as
int) or a wrapper object (such as java.lang.Integer).
If the getValue function returns a wrapper object and that object is null,
WriteNumberTag will take the format key you returned from
getValuenumberformat() and append _null to the end and tries to look this
up in the application resources, writing this value out if it exists. e.g,
mynumberformat.test1_null=somenulldisplayvalue
If you dont like the idea of providing a getXnumberformat() function,
then a property in the tag called formatkey bypasses this and just uses this
key. e.g.
Thats right, its a KEY, not a format. If I made it just a format string
then it would just encourage you guys to write non internationalised stuff
:-)
Obviously it tries to use the current session locale, but you can override
this in the tag.
Properties supported through tag:
filter, name, property, scope just like bean:write
locale, bundle just like bean:message
formatkey new, see above.
implementation notes:
The DecimalFormat objects are cached for speed (these things are probably
going to be used a lot). The cache is a map keyed on
formatkey_localeLanguage_localeCountry
Yes, I should really cache the DecimalFormatSymbols objects.
And yeah, the formatting is pants. I use VisualAge for Java which means Im
looking at one method at a time, not the whole file.
Anyways let me know what you think. Does anybody want to put this in the
struts distribution?
Regards,
Ned.

Re: Why are there 2 ForwardTag classes (and someothers)?
Craig,
I've just completed converting my apps to struts 1.0 from 0.5 and have a couple
of tags that I still have to use from the original struts.tld. I couldn't find
equivilent functionality in any of the new tlds for these tags. They are :
struts:htmlProperty
struts:enumerate
Are there any plans to make these tags (or equivilents) in the new tlds ?
Thanks

Re: Follow-Up: WebLogic 6.0 Beta and Struts
I know that this may be too much detail for you, so I'll give the summary. This is interesting because it shows: 1. Other people are wanting to use struts(apache jsp/taglib framework) with WebLogic, and therefore probably in some serious apps/enterprises 2.

Actions with parameters
Is there any possibility to map actions with different parameters? Something like: There would be two advantages: The designers do not have to be aware of parameters. They just call some action.do's.

Use of Actionmappings
Hi, As I see it now, in Struts, each form has 0 or 1 action. If you want to use multiple buttons in one form, you have to add parameters to the action to define what should be done by the action. Is it possible to say in 1 form to connect 1 action to each button in stead of using parameters? Is it possible to use regular expressions?

Re: MessageTag
I'm sorry, I was a little too brief. I meant a message tag like the form errors tag. So you can build a list of messages in your action classes for display on a page. Possibly, the form errors tag could be generalized to do this if there was the option of specifying your own header and footer it should use in the tag. For example, upon successfully deleting a few records. Items deleted: Record John Smith was deleted. Record Joe Smith was deleted. etc. David Winterfeldt --- "Craig R.

Database connection pool bug
There appears to still be a problem with the database connection pool when used with the JDBC-ODBC bridge (build 20001209). In the close() method of org.apache.struts.util.GenericConnection the statement "conn.setTypeMap(this.map);" throws an UnsupportedOperationException rather than a SQLException (at least when used with the Microsoft SQL Server ODBC driver). Since this is not caught the method fails and the connection is not returned to the pool. --- Howard Moore Senior Software Engineer Datapulse CTI Tel : +44 (0)1491 418000 Fax : +44 (0)1491 411459 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

IMHO, a better name for ActionError would be PreparedMessage (because its so similar to PreparedStatements...). And, as you pointed out, basically an ActionError already has everything you need. So, why not use a second ActionErrors stored somewhere else in the session together with the errors tag ? Matthias

reset(..) in ActionForm
Hello, When does reset(..) in ActionForm being called ? >From API: "This method is called before the properties are repopulated by the controller servlet." What are the cases when it happens? Regards, Benjamin.
Re: reset(..) in ActionForm
Ben,
To me it looks like ActionServlet.java
Case
doGet() and doPost() call
method ActionServlet.process() (process HTTP request) calls
ActionServlet.processPopulate()
which calls the formInstance.reset() method.
// Populate the bean properties of this ActionForm instance
if (debug >= 1)
log(" Populating bean properties from this request");
formInstance.reset(mapping, request);
//place the mapping's multipart request handler class
//into the request to be read by the BeanUtils.populate
//method in the event of a multipart request
request.setAttribute("org.apache.struts.action.mapping.multipartclass",
mapping.getMultipartClass());
//also pass the mapping through the request
request.setAttribute("org.apache.struts.action.mapping.instance",
mapping);
BeanUtils.populate(formInstance, mapping.getPrefix(),
mapping.getSuffix(), request);

How to use struts form tags without ActionForms
Hi all: I have developed a fairly involved database application using servlets (pre-JSP) and am now retrofitting the user interface to JSP/Struts. I am not sure I see the use of ActionForms. The documentation says that the primary use of ActionForms is to maintain the information from the user's request but there are many cases in which I would like to have the jsp page talk directly to my existing business beans without maintaining an ActionForm for every request. How can I use struts tags (e.g. struts:text) to read/update existing business beans that don't implement the ActionForm interface (but follow bean getter/setter conventions nevertheless)? Am I misunderstanding how ActionForms fit into an overall design? - Steve -- Steven Peterson, President Frontier Productions, Inc. 310 Wesley Drive Chapel Hill, NC 27516 http://www.frontierproductions.net Tel: 919-942-1386 Fax: 919-933-2677
