RE: Template -struts-template and generated HTML / templating using PUSH model

2001-03-28 Thread Vincent Harcq

Many Thanks.
It works OK now under Tomcat 3.2.1.
Is there a problem in "flush" under Tomcat 3.2.1; in this case this patch
would be appreciate for final Struts 1.0.
Or is it my Tomcat configuration ?

Objet : RE: Template -struts-template and generated HTML / templating
using PUSH model


Harcq,

I just ran into this problem myself with WebSphere.  The GetTag.java - the
source behind the template:get tag that actually does the include calls
pageContext and includes whatever content should go in.  By default, the
servlet engine should flush the buffer (that's what allows an include to go
somewhere within your page). However, apparently some servers don't do that
by default (WS 3.5.3 doesn't seem to).  The solution is an easy one, but
you'll need to recompile Struts.

Under struts/src/share/org/apache/struts/taglib/template you will see a file
called GetTag.java.  Open that file.  In the doStartTag() method you'll find
the following code:

pageContext.include(content.toString());

To fix your problem (hopefully, worked for me) add the following line above
it:

pageContext.getOut().flush();

So your end result will look like:

pageContext.getOut().flush();
pageContext.include(content.toString());

By hardcoding the flush your problems should be solved. Recompiling struts
is documented on the Struts installation web page. :)

HTH,

Chris Assenza

Subject: Template -struts-template and generated HTML / templating using
PUSH model


Hi,

1. I am beginning to look at Templating mechanism and so use the example
struts-template using version pre-beta-2 (23/03/01).
The result is a strange for me.  Can somebody explain me this.
On the first page, when I look at the generated code (look at the end of
message), I got something where the side-bar.jsp and header.jsp is included
BEFORE the  tag; while from what I see in chapterTemplate.jsp, the
 should appear first.
Is there a problem somewhere ?  Does somebody is aware of that ?  Is it my
browser ?

2. I was also thinking about another mean of doing templating.  The fact
that I have two create each 2 files (introduction.jsp and introduction.html)
is not really needed if you consider you have a little number of different
templates to work with.
Say you have only two templates (side-bar header content footer) (left-bar
header content right-bar footer), it is too much for me to create each time
the page that will use template:put.
I have done that before I used Struts in a "request processor" by setting
the value of a "content" field, forwarding to one of two pages template1.jsp
and template2.jsp that uses jsp include tags.
My plan was to do that in the findForward() method of ActionForwards and
forward all the time to one of the 2 template pages that I have and setting
the "content" value before.
To speak "philosophically", but wishing to not re-open this debate, the PUSH
method is for me more convenient that the "PULL" one for Page Templating
Mechanism.  But I do not want to "mix" Velocity and Struts only""" to
solve this templating problem.

Any ideas ?

Rafal,

You might want to change from the thin to ora8.
'ora8' was designed to be used for connection pooling.
The 'thin' driver was developed for applets.

Re: ActionForm with no default constructor

2001-03-28 Thread Martin Cooper

I think this should work. The most likely reason I can think of for what
you're seeing is incorrect settings in your struts-config.xml file.

You might want to check the following:

1) The 'name' in your  must match the 'name' in your .
2) The 'scope' in your  must be specified as "session" in your case.
3) The 'type' in your  must be set to the actual class you are
instantiating (even if Struts won't be able to instantiate one of those).
4) The attribute name under which you are storing your form bean must be the
same as the 'attribute' in your , or the 'name' if you do not
specify 'attribute'.

Hope this helps.

Which frame the output goes to is determined by the "target" attribute on

Fun with

2001-03-28 Thread Martin Cooper

I'd like to translate the following to scriptlet-free JSP. (Hey, that
rhymes!)

String focus;
if (request.getParameter("startAtTheTop") != null) {
focus = "field1";
} else {
focus = "field2";
}

The main problem I'm facing is that I need to be able to use 'focus' as the
value of a tag attribute later in the JSP, like so:



That means that the following approach does not work:








When it hits the expression in the  tag, the JSP compiler
complains that 'focus' is undefined. Presumably, this is because the JSP
compiler doesn't realise, like we do, that one or the other of those cases
will be executed, so that 'focus' will indeed be defined.

In any case, the best I've been able to come up with so far is this:









This works, but it does seem rather clumsy. Is there a better way?

to do the following to run in a load-balanced server:

* Add a  element to your web.xml file in the appropriate

Some application servers impose an additional (non-spec) requirement that
servlet context attributes must be Serializable as well.

The requirement on the servlet container is that, at any point in time,
all requests for the same session be handled inside the same JVM.  Thus,
your application level classes generally do not have to do anything
special other than the above requirements.

The details of whether and how this works depends very much on the
application server you are running on.  None of the rules are really
specific to Struts -- they would affect any and all web apps run on that
server.  Check your server's docs on distributable applications for more
info.

With this entry in struts-config.xml, Struts will create a single
connection pool, and will also make it available in different ways:

* If you have a reference to the controller servlet (as in an Action),
  you can call servlet.findDataSource(null);

* If you have access to the servlet context (as in a different servlet
  in the same webapp), you can call
  getServletContext().getAttribute(Action.DATA_SOURCE_KEY);

* In a custom tag implementation class, you can call
  pageContext.getAttribute(Action.DATA_SOURCE_KEY,
   PageContext.APPLICATION_SCOPE);

* In a scriptlet embedded in a JSP page, you can call
  application.getAttribute(Action.DATA_SOURCE_KEY);

In all of these cases you are referencing exactly the same connection
pool.

RE: using struts in a load-balanced environement

2001-03-28 Thread james . webster


Yes. High-end servlet engines will replicate session state between one or
more servers in the cluster; to how many it gets replicated depends on the
specific implementation. For example when you cluster Weblogic servers,
each new session is assigned a primary server and a secondary server. All
updates to the HttpSession are replicated from the primary to the
secondary. The trick is though (and my understanding starts to get a little
bit fuzzy at this point) that you can't hold a reference to an object
stuffed into a particular client's HttpSession object, call a method on
that object which changes its internal state, and expect the servlet engine
to respond to this method call and replicate the state to the secondary
server automatically. There are two approaches here:

1. Whenever you make a change to the state of an object held in a client's
HttpSession, put the object back into the HttpSession with the same name
and object reference. This is the simplest approach.

An alternative approach.

2. Make your session state objects extend java.util.Observable. The servlet
engine's implementation of HttpSession would have to then add itself as an
observer to all new objects coming into the HttpSession. The session state
object would have to call setChanged() and notifyObservers() in any
'mutator' methods in order to ensure that the servlet engine is told of the
state change.

The second approach would tie you to whatever servlet engine implements
that functionality, and thinking harder about it, I don't think it buys you
anything over the first approach anyway. If there was a thread running
through all HttpSession's and periodically checking whether the Observable
objects in them had changed their state then it wouldn't be necessary to
call notifyObservers() - but you would also leave it in the lap of the gods
as to when exactly the servlet engine gets a notification that the session
state needs replicating, a failure in the meantime could result in lose of
the client's state.

Does anyone know if there are engines out there doing it this way?

James W.

In early versions of Struts, form beans could only be stored in session
scope, so the Actions were programmed to remove those beans as soon as
they were no longer needed.  Once the support for using request scope was
added, the example app was changed so that it will work correctly for
*either* scope (request or session) for form beans.

You are correct that the removeAttribute call is not required for request
scope, but it doesn't hurt anything either -- and it is part of
maintaining the compatibility so that this code will still work for
session scope form beans.

The init() method is not called for a particular request (in fact, it is
called *before* any request is allowed to be processed), so there is not
really any option to forward control to an error page.  Instead, you
should throw a ServletException from the init() method.  If the problem

It's been my impression that the bigger servers can maintain session across
webservers. I thought that when something was stuck in the session that it
must be Serializable and when session.setAttribute(x,y) was called that the

is just whitespace in HTML, you have to either use  (or , etc) in
the messages themselves, or put your  tag in a fixed-format
block (e.g. ).

Theoretically, you could grab the ActionErrors object from the request
attribute in which it's stored, and iterate over the errors yourself, but
then you have to get into looking the keys up in the right resource bundle,
etc.

If you really want to do something different, then I'm afraid all I can
suggest is taking a look at ErrorsTag.java and perhaps writing your own tag
based on that.

struts and cocoon

2001-03-28 Thread Ali Ozoren








Hi all-

 

I’ve been trying to get cocoon and struts together, however one is using
the servlet.jar the other servlet_2_2.jar.

 

Is it possible to combine these two?

 

If you have an answer, please cc me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] since I can’t
get listserver mail from work.

 

Thanks!

I am trying to get struts working for Weblogic 5.1 SP8. I am getting the
error below. This doesn't seem to be the class cast exception I am seeing
often in the archives here ( yes, I tried looking there first for an answer
to this...I swear! ). Anyone have any idea? Do I need to do something in
WLS to get WAR files to work properly?

Thanks for any info,

Will

RE: Template -struts-template and generated HTML / templating using PUSH model

2001-03-28 Thread Assenza, Chris

Harcq,

I just ran into this problem myself with WebSphere.  The GetTag.java - the
source behind the template:get tag that actually does the include calls
pageContext and includes whatever content should go in.  By default, the
servlet engine should flush the buffer (that's what allows an include to go
somewhere within your page). However, apparently some servers don't do that
by default (WS 3.5.3 doesn't seem to).  The solution is an easy one, but
you'll need to recompile Struts. 

Under struts/src/share/org/apache/struts/taglib/template you will see a file
called GetTag.java.  Open that file.  In the doStartTag() method you'll find
the following code: 

pageContext.include(content.toString());

To fix your problem (hopefully, worked for me) add the following line above
it:

pageContext.getOut().flush();

So your end result will look like:

pageContext.getOut().flush();
pageContext.include(content.toString());

By hardcoding the flush your problems should be solved. Recompiling struts
is documented on the Struts installation web page. :)

HTH, 

Chris Assenza

Subject: Template -struts-template and generated HTML / templating using
PUSH model


Hi,

1. I am beginning to look at Templating mechanism and so use the example
struts-template using version pre-beta-2 (23/03/01).
The result is a strange for me.  Can somebody explain me this.
On the first page, when I look at the generated code (look at the end of
message), I got something where the side-bar.jsp and header.jsp is included
BEFORE the  tag; while from what I see in chapterTemplate.jsp, the
 should appear first.
Is there a problem somewhere ?  Does somebody is aware of that ?  Is it my
browser ?

2. I was also thinking about another mean of doing templating.  The fact
that I have two create each 2 files (introduction.jsp and introduction.html)
is not really needed if you consider you have a little number of different
templates to work with.
Say you have only two templates (side-bar header content footer) (left-bar
header content right-bar footer), it is too much for me to create each time
the page that will use template:put.
I have done that before I used Struts in a "request processor" by setting
the value of a "content" field, forwarding to one of two pages template1.jsp
and template2.jsp that uses jsp include tags.
My plan was to do that in the findForward() method of ActionForwards and
forward all the time to one of the 2 template pages that I have and setting
the "content" value before.
To speak "philosophically", but wishing to not re-open this debate, the PUSH
method is for me more convenient that the "PULL" one for Page Templating
Mechanism.  But I do not want to "mix" Velocity and Struts only""" to
solve this templating problem.

Any ideas ?

Re: Initial security check

2001-03-28 Thread Martin Cooper

No. The init() method is called during servlet startup, not in the context
of a request. No request means no response - there's no place for a JSP to
go. I think you're pretty much stuck with logging an error and/or throwing
an exception.

Re: Bug in tomcat or the JDK (testing it on 1.2.2)

2001-03-28 Thread Johan Compagner

ahh but if that is the case. how much data must be send to the client
before it does noticed it?
Because at this time the it is bufferd to a 8Kb buffer before it sends out
but if the client can figure it out with say 1Kb then why wait for a buffer of 8KB to
be read before sending it?

I tracked it already down to the BufferedServletOutputStream.write(byte[],int,int)
and the the reallyFlush() method can't be called twice. now i know why

Re: Initial security check

2001-03-28 Thread dhay




Hi.  Just one more question on this...

If I find an error when I do the initial check in the controller (see history),
can I forward to an error page directly from the init() method?  Is there a way
to do this elegantly?

Thanks,

Dave

OK, the determination itself definitely makes sense to do at
init() time.  You would want to store the result of this determination in
some sort of servlet context attribute, so that it was visible to the
controller servlet and to your pages (as an application scope bean).

Two different approaches are feasible:
* Subclass ActionServlet and make the init() method a little smarter
* Write your own servlet that is also , and have it
  set up this servlet context attribute.  The example app does this
  with it's "pseudo-database".

Why no body allowed in jsp:getProperty or bean:write?

2001-03-28 Thread Joel Shellman

In order for the designer to be able to view a default row in a table
(that I'm generating using iterate and jsp:getProperty--or I could use
bean:write), I want to stick in a body value in there as a dummy value.
Then the designer can open up the jsp page in the browser without it
having to be served by a webserver.

Currently, those two tags don't allow bodies. Why? There's no reason not
to allow a body, just ignore it, and then you could have the flexibility
of being able to view the jsp page directly (without server) and have
dummy values in there to see how it looks.

Is there a tag or property or something that will make this work?

Thanks,

RE: Bug in tomcat or the JDK (testing it on 1.2.2)

2001-03-28 Thread Kyle Robinson

To avoid thecosmetic ugliness, you can change the level of debug for the log
in the tomcat server.xml file.  The default setting is INFORMATION.  This is
a good setting for development but in production I would recommend putting
it to ERROR. See the comments in Tomcat's server.xml file for more info.

That is not the bug. It's a feature ;-). 

When your browser realizes that it already has a copy of given file in
browser cache, it abruptly closes the connection in order not to waste time
and bandwidth. This causes exception on the server (tomcat) side of the
connection. It is plainly cosmetic nuisance.

There is plenty of information on this on the web if you run the search on
"tomcat socket write error"

Hope it helps,

Subject:Bug in tomcat or the JDK (testing it on
1.2.2)

Hi,

If i use Tomcat as a static (gifs) and dynamic (jsp) server,
that is mostly
used inside a debugging evironment or maybe if it is
specified that everything
in the webapp\app dir must be served by tomcat (still find
this a very bad idee),
then i noticed that i get socket exceptions on specifiek
files those files have
something in common they are the larger files in my app:
31290 and 23281 bytes

this is the error:
2001-03-28 04:40:07 - Ctx( /financialtools ): IOException
in: R( /financialtools + /overlib.js + null) socket write error
(code=10053)

Then i went testing in the source code of
org.apache.tomcat.request.FileHandler where it is thrown.
And after sometesting i found out that a picture can't be
larger then 16383 because if it is 16384
then an exception will be thrown. I tested this with the
read in buffer:
byte[] buf = new byte[16383];

if that number is larger then 16383 i wil get a exception
when i write it.
so if i keept it 16383 then the first write to
out.write(buf, 0, read); will pass
but the next bloc will fail. And if i make it 16384,
out.write(buf, 0, read); will fail the first time!

As far as i can see now it comes from the jdk it self:

java.net.SocketException: socket write error (code=10053)
 java.lang.Throwable(java.lang.String)
 java.lang.Exception(java.lang.String)
 java.io.IOException(java.lang.String)
 java.net.SocketException(java.lang.String)
 void java.net.SocketOutputStream.socketWrite(byte [], int,
int, java.io.FileDescriptor) <---
 void java.net.SocketOutputStream.write(byte [], int, int)
 void
org.apache.tomcat.service.http.HttpResponseAdapter.doWrite(byte [], int,
int)
 void
org.apache.tomcat.core.BufferedServletOutputStream.doWrite(byte [], int,
int)
 void
org.apache.tomcat.core.BufferedServletOutputStream.reallyFlush()
 void
org.apache.tomcat.core.BufferedServletOutputStream.write(byte [], int, int)
 void
org.apache.tomcat.request.FileHandler.doService(org.apache.tomcat.core.Reque
st, org.apache.tomcat.core.Response)


So is this a bug of Tomcat or the JDK it self? But can't
send more then 16K? that is a bit strange.

I know this is not a tomcat list but when developing with
struts i came accross this and i don't want
to have another list that i have to monitor and i know there
are a few tomcat developers here.

Struts in WebSphere - VICTORY !!!!!!! - Addendum

After quite a bit of effort, I have finally gotten the Struts example to
work flawlessly in WebSphere 3.5.3.  What's funny is that I was reading your
post Richard and was thinking to myself: "Gee, I've done ALL of this EXACTLY
-- in fact I'm even on the same OS, just different drive letters, WHAT could
be wrong??" Then it hit me, looking through your steps below I found the one
thing that was different that had completely slipped through - jaxp 1.0.1.
I was using jaxp 1.1.1!!  Crimson is a separate jar now, that includes the
stuff from parser.jar, but it apparently does something different then 1.0.1
and it was just screwing everything up!  I downloaded 1.0.1 and got
significantly further then I ever have, but ran into another problem.
WebSphere reported that the public identifiers for the DTD's were malformed
URLs.  Luckily, I saw on another mailing list an issue with WebSphere &
Struts not liking PUBLIC DTD refs, so I changed them to SYSTEM and away it
flew - flawlessly. 

For those people who run into these issues (and because I have to document
it for work anyway - here is Richard's list again revised with more detail
on some of the bugs I encountered. (BTW, adding web to the classpath did not
help me, I had to move it to the servlets directory). 

Server: Windows 2000 Server with WebSphere 3.5.3 Advanced

1. Start up the adminserver. 
2. Start up Admin Console.
3. Use the Convert War file task to convert the struts-example.war from the
struts-b1 distrib as-is.
4. Convert to the default_server, default servlet engine and standard
install directory (c:\websphere\appserver\hosts\default_host).
5. Create a WEB-INF directory in the servlets dir and copy
struts-config.xml, database.xml AND web.xml into it (Keep WEB-INF with all
the TLD's under web - both WEB-INF directories must be present).  
6. Copy jaxp 1.0.1's (NOT 1.1.1's) jaxp.jar and parser.jar to the servlets
directory of the strut-example webapp.
7. In the servlets directory, open struts.jar with WinZip.  Extract the
three DTD's (struts-config_1_0.dtd, web-app_2_2.dtd and web-app_2_3.dtd)
into the servlets directory making sure you use folder names (so the files
extract to servlets/org/apache/struts/resources). 
8. Click on struts-example in the Admin Console under Default Server/Default
Servlet Engine and click the advanced tab on the right hand side of the
screen. 
9. Down where it says Default Error Page, enter /ErrorReporter and then
click Apply.
10. Start the Default Server via the Admin Console. You should see a whole
bunch of ActionServlet messages in the default_host_stdout.log file with no
exceptions.
11. Via a browser accessed the app using
http://localhost/struts-example/index.jsp.
12. If it returns "Application not Available" then go back to the Admin
Console, right-click on struts-example and select Restart WebApp. 
13. Once it reports success, go back to the URL above and try again - it
should work flawlessly.  

For whatever reason, some installations do not like XML files that reference
PUBLIC DTD's - if in looking at the default_host_stdout.log file you see
errors about invalid public URL references during DTD registrations, or if
your pages say "cannot find //logon or //saveRegistration (ie. action
mappings) then do the following:

1. Stop Default Server
2. Go to servlets\WEB-INF\ and edit web.xml and struts_config.xml.
3. In the DOCTYPE declaration, change the word PUBLIC to SYSTEM and
completely remove the line that reads "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web
Application 2.2//EN" from web.xml and remove "-//Apache Software
Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.0//EN" from struts-config.xml. 
4. Save these changes and go back to step 10 above. 

Just as a troubleshooting guide - 

If you are getting errors like "Cannot find ActionMappings, etc..." or
"Cannot find key org.apache.struts.MESSAGE"  then your application is most
likely still bombing on the struts-config issue that Richard discovered.
The above steps SHOULD correct that leaving nothing out.  If you are getting
404 errors about //logon or something not found, then you are still having
XML config troubles and it is not initializing the Action servlet properly.
Follow the steps above in regards to DTD's and it should work.

As a final thought, I obviously haven't gotten to test too much but I don't
believe that there are ANY coding changes that need to be made to the actual
struts source.  Everything about getting it to work in WebSphere has been a
WebSphere configuration issue thus far (and I don't think I'll be having any
more). 

Thanks for your help Richard and I hope others benefit from this as well! :)

ignored the millions of past posts about the iterate tag- so if this
question has already been answered I apologize in advance :) However, after
searching through some previous posts and the documentation I can't
understand why this does not work. I am probably using the simplest form of
the iterate tag:


  




Is this working?
  


recentRequests is a Collection (an ArrayList to be exact) in session scope.
Each element in the Collection is a simple javabean with the appropriate
setters and getters (requestName, requestDate, etc...) The strange thing is
that the iterate part is working- verified by the output of the last  in
the above example (if the Collection contains 2 elements, then it iterates
twice but all I get is "is this working"). The bean:write tags produce no
output. I have verified the content of the Collection using plain JSP, which
works as intended:



<% java.util.Iterator it = ((Collection)recentRequests).iterator();
  while ( it.hasNext() ) {
com.bipi.plims.model.FermSummaryBean bean =
(com.bipi.plims.model.FermSummaryBean)it.next();
out.write(bean.getRequestName());
out.write(bean.getRequestDate().toString());
out.write(bean.getRequestBy());
out.write(bean.getStatus());
out.write("");
  }  %>



suggestions???

Thanks,
Bob





Re: Removing ActionForm's from context

2001-03-28 Thread Joel Shellman

Right, but notice the exact wording--it says "remove it only if the
scope is set to "request""--but that's the main case where you wouldn't
need to remove it. page and session removal would make sense, but
request removal only makes sense in the situation you describe which I
would think wouldn't happen all that often.

Right, using request scope should avoid population of a form from old values. But 
request scope is not always used.
Moreover if you forward the request to another Action or a jsp, you might not want 
them to have access to the form,
which can eventually contain sensible data like a password.

This is my feeling about it,

2001-03-28 Thread Szlapa, Michael

That is not the bug. It's a feature ;-). 

When your browser realizes that it already has a copy of given file in
browser cache, it abruptly closes the connection in order not to waste time
and bandwidth. This causes exception on the server (tomcat) side of the
connection. It is plainly cosmetic nuisance.

There is plenty of information on this on the web if you run the search on

this is the error:

(code=10053)

Then i went testing in the source code of
org.apache.tomcat.request.FileHandler where it is thrown.
And after sometesting i found out that a picture can't be
larger then 16383 because if it is 16384
then an exception will be thrown. I tested this with the
read in buffer:
byte[] buf = new byte[16383];

if that number is larger then 16383 i wil get a exception
when i write it.
so if i keept it 16383 then the first write to
out.write(buf, 0, read); will pass
but the next bloc will fail. And if i make it 16384,
out.write(buf, 0, read); will fail the first time!

As far as i can see now it comes from the jdk it self:

There is a good description of what you want to do in an IBM Redbook titled
"Design and Implement Servlets, JSPs, and EJBs for IBM WebSphere Application
Server" (SG24-5754-00, August 2000). You can probably download the PDF from
IBM's Redbooks web site. The techniques aren't specific to WebSphere. There
is a patterns for a Targetable Commands, which it sounds like you're talking
about. There is also a good description with code samples of using the
facade pattern with session beans and the command pattern, which also sounds
like what you want to do. It doesn't have anything about Struts, but maybe
by looking at it you'll get some ideas. It's only 178 pages.

Removing ActionForm's from context

2001-03-28 Thread Joel Shellman

I don't quite understand the the below quote from the example tour. The
paragraph doesn't make sense. Anything in request scope will be removed
after the request is over automatically. So there's no need to remove it
just so if the user comes back later to the same page--it would have
been long gone before then. Right? What is it talking about?

Thanks!

Before returning from a successful login, LogonAction also disposes of
the LogonForm bean. This way, if the
user returns to the index.jsp form later, it will be a clean form
without the (old) login already entered. Note
that LogonAction first checks to see if the scope has been set to
"request", and then removes the bean from
the request context, or otherwise from the default session context.

  The Struts best practice is to use request scope for
single-page forms that contain all of your
  relevant properties, because there is no need to maintain
such form beans across requests.

  Note that the example removes the LogonForm bean
regardless of scope. This is for backward
  compatibility with earlier configurations. In your
application, you should follow the advice of
  the configuration, and remove it only if the scope is set
to "request". This way, the behavior
  can be changed just by editing struts-config.xml and
reloading the application. "

I'm kind of new to struts, but I have this working.

Your data source configuration in struts-config.xml looks fine.  You can check
your logs to make sure no errors are thrown when you start your server (I use
Tomcat 3.2.1).

In your code you set up datasource, as below:

javax.sql.DataSource dataSource = null;
dataSource = servlet.findDataSource(null);

I do it, like so:

 DataSource dataSource = (DataSource)
 servlet.getServletContext().getAttribute(Action.DATA_SOURCE_KEY);

Hope this helps,

Hello,
We at Tufan Infotech are evaluating Struts for using in our web application
development.
I am not able to connect to a Oracle 8i database and retrieve or update
data.  The datasource configuration in struts-config.xml is given below.

 

  

  


The code snippet which tried to connect is given below

Connection con = null;
PreparedStatement ps = null;
ResultSet rst = null;
javax.sql.DataSource dataSource = null;
String str = "insert into metadata values (?,?,?,?,?)";

String type=((MetadataForm)form).getType();
String code=((MetadataForm)form).getCode();
String description=((MetadataForm)form).getDescription();
String sequence=((MetadataForm)form).getSequence();
String isDefault=((MetadataForm)form).getIsDefault();

ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();

  try
  {
   dataSource = servlet.findDataSource(null);
   con = dataSource.getConnection();
   ps = con.prepareStatement(str);
   ps.setString(1,type);
   ps.setString(2,code);
   ps.setString(3,description);
   ps.setString(4,sequence);
   ps.setString(5,isDefault);
   ps.executeUpdate();
  }
  catch(Exception e)
  {
   errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, new ActionError
("error.database.missing"));
  }
  finally
  {
   try
   {
con.close();
   }
   catch(Exception e)
   {
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, new ActionError
("error.database.missing"));
   }
  }


The above code is not updating the database.  It thows an exception and
shows the message in 'errors'.  One of the statements below seems to be
failing and gives a nullPointerException.

Would appreciate some inputs to solve the problem.  Also would appreciate
code snippets used to connect to datasources (example Oracle).

Best regards

I think this is the problem.  AFAIK, the struts DataSource is only

JavaScript in Struts

Title: JavaScript in Struts






How do I perform javascript validation in struts pages ??





Connection to Oracle 8i datasource

2001-03-28 Thread suresh

Hello,
We at Tufan Infotech are evaluating Struts for using in our web application
development.
I am not able to connect to a Oracle 8i database and retrieve or update
data.  The datasource configuration in struts-config.xml is given below.

 

  

  


The code snippet which tried to connect is given below

Connection con = null;
PreparedStatement ps = null;
ResultSet rst = null;
javax.sql.DataSource dataSource = null;
String str = "insert into metadata values (?,?,?,?,?)";

String type=((MetadataForm)form).getType();
String code=((MetadataForm)form).getCode();
String description=((MetadataForm)form).getDescription();
String sequence=((MetadataForm)form).getSequence();
String isDefault=((MetadataForm)form).getIsDefault();

ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();

  try
  {
   dataSource = servlet.findDataSource(null);
   con = dataSource.getConnection();
   ps = con.prepareStatement(str);
   ps.setString(1,type);
   ps.setString(2,code);
   ps.setString(3,description);
   ps.setString(4,sequence);
   ps.setString(5,isDefault);
   ps.executeUpdate();
  }
  catch(Exception e)
  {
   errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, new ActionError
("error.database.missing"));
  }
  finally
  {
   try
   {
con.close();
   }
   catch(Exception e)
   {
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, new ActionError
("error.database.missing"));
   }
  }


The above code is not updating the database.  It thows an exception and
shows the message in 'errors'.  One of the statements below seems to be
failing and gives a nullPointerException.

Would appreciate some inputs to solve the problem.  Also would appreciate
code snippets used to connect to datasources (example Oracle).

Best regards
Suresh

RE: Template -struts-template and generated HTML / templating using PUSH model

2001-03-28 Thread Vincent Harcq

Merci.
I will have a look at it.

For my problem, I use . . . heuh, Tomcat 3.2.1 :(
I just tried with Catalina 4.0b1 and . . .  wow, it works fine :)

Does I need a special parameter in server.xml, something else ???

  Hi Vincent,

  Have a look to Components proposal. Components proposal can be seen as
"extended templates". With Components you can define your template's
contents/attributes in a separate file, and insert content by using its
name. A
content, named a component, can also inherit from other definitions.
Components
proposal also contains other features.
  See (main site) http://www.lifl.fr/~dumoulin/components
 (mirror) http://www.geocities.com/cedricdumoulin/components/

  I am currently working on the possibility to define or modify the
template/component inside the action or inside the jsp. This will be
available
soon (see a previous mail 'Re: PROPOSAL: Template Screens').
  Furthermore, useful Components features will be progressively introduce in
Struts version 1.1

  For your first question, see intermixed.

  What jsp server do you use ? This happens because your server doesn't
flush
included page.
  You can try to use the components library instead of template one, it is
fully
compatible.

Re: Template -struts-template and generated HTML / templating using PUSH model

2001-03-28 Thread Christophe Vigny

J'espere, que cela prendra en compte l'internationnalisation. Les fichiers de
resources, ne permettent pas de gerer des pages stylisées.

Ce qui m'interesserait, dans un systeme de templates, ce sont des feuilles de style
(pas xsl) qui s'appliqueraient sur des beans, et qui permettrait au graphiste de
définir globalement comment s'affiche l'objet, puis de l'utiliser via des tags.
