SV: Trouble setting properties of an ActionForm bean
HI Peter,
Well, your bean doenst conform to the bean standard.
boolean getShowInstructions() should return a String instead...
dont know if this is causing your problem, but I suspect so

Emne: Trouble setting properties of an ActionForm bean
I'm hoping this issue is me just not understanding the
JavaBeans spec!
When I make the getter method of my ActionForm
property
a non-String type, the 'set' method for that property
is not called when a request is made. I traced this
to
BeanUtils.java which gets a 'null' returned by
'propertyDescriptorInstance'.getWriteMethod() for the
offending method.
The code for my ActionForm with the offending property
is shown below. I changed the return type of
getShowInstructions() to boolean instead of String.
Thanks for any advice.

As far as I know, the value passed into the setter method must match the
value returned by the getter method. It will not work otherwise.
Could you return 'true' or 'false' as a String? If you are setting a value
of a field, it should work.

RE: Suggestion:Taking the Servlet out of Action and ActionForm
I don't agree - Actions are part of the controller in MVC and need access to the servlet API to do thing such as retrieving and storing objects under the appropriate context. Sounds to me like 1) Your using the wrong tool and 2) You've put your Model in the Actions. 1) Cactus is a simple test framework for unit testing server-side java code. It uses JUnit and extends it. It's primary goal is to be able to unit test server side java methods which use Servlet objects such as HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse, HttpSession etc. http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/cactus/ HttpUnit is a Java library for the automatic stimulation and testing of web applications - which is supposed to be complimentary to Cactus. http://sourceforge.net/projects/httpunit I haven't used these tools, but I'm about to download them and try them out. Also I know Struts is in the process of setting up Cactus test suites so it sounds like is more appropriate than JUnit for this environment. 2) If you succeed in separating your Model from the controller then you should end up with a set of small Action classes. Testing your model outside of the servlet enviornment should then be pretty straight forward. This is what we've done and it works well. Niall -Original Message- From: Mikkel Bruun [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 17 May 2001 10:02 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Suggestion:Taking the Servlet out of Action and ActionForm Hi guys, Here's a little design suggestion. I don't know if you have already discussed this. As we all know Action and ActionForm makes use of parts of the Servlet API (HttpRequest). This ties the execution of Action and ActionForm to a servlet enviroment. This is not bad, but (imho) it isn't good either... * We are not able to test our Actions in other enviroments (JUNIT for instance) * It's not possible to port our Action and ActionForm implementations to other types of applications (applet, console) A couple of month ago I implemented my own Model2 framework that worked with a socalled RequestContext. The RequestContext contained three HashSet's, representing request-, session and applicationattributes In the Servlet's service (post/get) method we would populate the RequestContext with all request, session and applications attributes and pass it along the our viewvalidator (in this case an ActionForm object), that would extract the needed parameters and react to them (this could still be done with reflection as in struts). Any output from the validation would then be placed in the RequestContext's Collection (as a proxy to the *real* HttpRequest, HttpSession, etc, objects). If the validation was succesful the Servlet would then pass the RequestContext to a Command (or Action). The command would then extract it needed parameters and work on them. Once again, output would be place in the RequestContext's representation of Request, Session and Application. When the Command (or Action) was completed, the Servlet would iterate through the RequestContext and place all the attributes into their respective scope. The important point here is that the RequestContext wasn't tied to the Servlet API, although it could be initialized with HTTPRequest as parameter. By doing the above we were able to create validations and actions that we could easily test and reuse. What we usually did was that we created JUNIT testcases where we created instances of RequestContext and passed it to our Actions and eveluated the return values...These JUNIT cases could then be run from anywhere. We actually had our deployment done by Ant, and our deployment scripts would run all our testcases before deploying... We could actually test all of our application from the commandline... Just my two cents... Mikkel Bruun

Basically, I have a page I populate with elements from a database where the number of entries is unknown. For each of the rows retrieved, I extract some information and create an entry in a table on the page. Each of the rows has a text box associated with it - also generated dynamically. An Iterator tag is used to create the rows in the table and hence an index for each of the text box elements. My question is this, when I enter information into the text boxes, I would like this reflected onto my actionform automatically by Struts. However, because I don't know how many text boxes will be present on the page, I can't provide set methods for each one. So how is it done? Thanks in advance, Simon.

Possible to capture 'imageName.x' property?
I saw a thread talking about how to find out which
'input' image was clicked by doing the following in
your Action class:
String image1 = request.getParameter(imgName1.x);
if ( image1!=null ) {
// then this image was clicked!
I would like this info to be available from my
ActionForm via something like:
if ( myFormInstance.getImgName() ) {
// then this image was clicked!
The '.x' (or '.y') seem to present a problem to
whatever reflection/bean-type stuff goes on inside
Struts - i.e. Struts can't find an appropriate method
to call when presented with the field name
'imgName.x'.
I've tried several method names like
'setImgName_X()', 'setImgName()', etc. Am I doing
something stupid? Is there a way I can get around
this using a BeanInfo class for my ActionForm?
I've also thought about writing a 'HTTP request
parameter preprocessor' to hack-off the '.x' and '.y'
from any parameter that has them (all done before my
action class is passed the HttpRequest object, of
course). Bad idea?
Thanks much!

RE: Suggestion:Taking the Servlet out of Action and ActionForm
Mikkel OK I agree, its never so black white and your user example looks fine to me. I'm wondering about your inner controller - sounds like some great integrated framework, in which case I agree its probably a level of abstraction I wouldn't want to go to. But what about lots of small controllers which tie together your logic outside the action. Anyway, I was probably misleading in saying thats what we've done. What I have actually done is this: We have sub-classed Action and created some abstract standard classes, our database action does something like this: 1) Get a database connection 2) Create a Transport object and store the ActionMapping, HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse Connection. 3) Set the default nextAction to success 4) call a processForm(ActionForm, Transport) method (implemented as an abstract method) catching and handling exceptions. 5) Check the Transport object for error messages. If there are errors create ActionErrors and save and if a nextAction returned by the Transport object use it otherwise set the nextAction to failure. 6) Close the Connection 7) Find the mapping for nextAction and forward to it. All out actions then inherit from this ActionFramework class overriding the processForm(ActionForm, Transport) method. This means that our Action classes have no references to the servlet world, meaning we can test them independantly. Now I know straight away you are going to say that I am storing the ActionMapping, HttpServletRequest HttpServletResponse in my Transport object - so far I haven't used them anywhere, it was just in case I ever needed to. Also if I ever do I will try to hide this in a new method in the Transport object. What do you think?

When looking at the MVC pattern we can easily identify two of the elements, namely the view (jsp) and the model (usually persistent object)... However, where is our controller??? As you point out, in the struts context the controller would be (partly) the Action, and probably some kind of Facade pattern towards the Model... However, in the classic sense of the MVC, the Controller should be reusable between many applications, and the Action dependence to the Servlet API doesn't (strictly speaking) make this possible. The solution to this is ofcourse to build a inner Controller, with close ties to the Model, such as an Facade or a (none Servlet specific) Command. However, I Feel that this just introduces another level of abstraction, and this abstraction should/could be made by the Action To give you a clue of the granularity of my Actions I give you the following example, please comment and tell if you think I have to much Model in it, and if, how to avoid it. This is probably not the best example, but here it comes... My Current Project deals with financing...Users has to LogOn to the System Model : User Controller: LogOnAction The Action makes use of an UserModelFacade. The UserModelFacade has a getUser(String uname, String pw) method... Pseudocode: User theUser= UserModelFacade.getInstance().getUser(name,pw); if(theUser==null) return(mappings.findMapping(failure) request.getSession().setAttrubute(myUser, theUser); return(mappings.findMapping(succes) This is the basic architecture and strategy we will be using in the development. When I said that this was a bad example, its because it only access the Model once... But some of our processes is more complicated than that... Sometimes we need to get the CurrentUser get other possible customers in the household get number of cars in the household get the new car make a finance calculation based on the above The following will result is 20-30 lines of code in the Action.

What really is needed is a new html tag called grid or something that handles this more gracefully. Using the iterate tag seems to be a waste since I'm not really using it for anything other than a counter placeholder. I know its a departure from standard HTML form types but who the hell cares. This would be really useful addition instead of mixing html tags in with iterate tag to accomplish something that should be simple. Maybe I'll write a taglib for this... So reading your comments, Jim, it sounds like your using code analagous to this but your implementation uses a map instead (?)

Re: Iterate and Radio tags
Hi Amar,
I have a problem in implementing this solution.
I have a situation similar to the user and subscription class scenarion of
struts-example.
I have a DomainHolder object which has a collection of
DomainDomainRelationHolder object as a Hashtable.
In my Domain.jsp I have to display the list of DomainDomainRelation objects.
I have the following iterate tag.
logic:iterate id=domainDomainRelationHolder name=domainHolder
property=domainDomainRels
tr
td width=6%
html:radio name=domainHolder property=childGroupOID
value=%=domainDomainRelationHolder.getChildGroupOID()%/
/td
td width='32%'
bean:write name=domainDomainRelationHolder property=childGroupName
filter=true/
/td
td width=52%bean:write name=domainDomainRelationHolder
property=childGroupDesc filter=true//td
/tr
/logic:iterate
Iam getting an exception saying that getChildGroupOID() is not found in
java.lang.Object.
In my DomainHolder object I have a property corresponding to childGroupOID.But I
am not sure where to have a collection that returns the childGroupOID.
This is a problem since childGroupOID is a user entered value in my
DomainDomainRelationHolder and I need this value to retrieve the corresponding
object from DomainHolder for Edit action.
This is the same situation as struts-example with one exception being that I
have to use radio buttons instead of links as in the example.
