indexed checkboxes

[Curt Peterson]

Somewhere in the archives I have seen some recent threads about the
indexed attribute of the checkbox tag not working.  I too am having no
luck getting this to work with the 1.0 release.  I did see a reference
in the basehandler class to indexed being available in 1.1 and up
releases.  What is the 1.1 and up release?  Does the October 31, 2001
release work?

Many Thanks,

-Curt

I just started using Forte 3.0 (migrating from Kawa) and I like it a lot.
One thing puzzles me. When I execute a struts project, the internal Tomcat
server launches, but gives an error message saying "The Tomcat server is not
running correctly".

In the tc_log I get the following messages:

I don't get this message if I run a non-struts webapp.

Also, a side issue -- is there any way to debug struts apps running in
Tomcat 4.x with Forte?

reset() in FormBean

[Tolstoy . Patel]

When is the reset() method of the FormBean called?  I know the FormBean's
fields are first populated, then it's validate() method is called (if
validate="true" in the struts-config.xml), and then the perform() method of
the associated Action class is called.  -But when is the reset() called?
-If I override the method, do I call a series of set() methods to
default values. -Is it not a good idea to override the method? Should I
leave it at the default behavior? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.  -T-

Re: Forte

[Robert Parker]

For remote debugging, the Tomcat 4.x startup script (Catalina.sh or
catalina.bat) will take a command line option 'debug'. This will start the
JVM with the correct switches for running the JPDA debugger (see jdk tool
doc for more info). If you look at the start script for catalina, you can
see the port the debugger will be listening on. Thus in the debug menu of
Forte, find the option which says connect to JVM. Just fill out the type
(socket in this case) and the port as specified in your catalina.bat

You should now be able to remotely debug...

Rob

Re: Struts Validation question

[David Winterfeldt]

It doesn't skip it just like if you define an
html:text on your JSP and the field doesn't exist it
causes an exception.  I don't think it stops
validating though since all exceptions are caught.

RE: Feedback on Struts Pros and Cons

[Clóvis Yutaka Harada]

In MVC nomenclature consider ActionServlet as the controller and Action and
the Validation Framework as controller extensions (I used these names as
class names in old projects before I discover struts), so business dosn´t
fit here. And thinking a little, it isn´t a good idea to put business logic
here (routing and domain validation isn´t business), as these code will be
coupled with struts (and servlet and web).
Because actions decides which commands to execute, decides where to go next
and prepares the environment for jsp view rendering, I think I can call it
"controller extension".

Personally, I don't consider Action subclasses to be business objects.
Rather, they should be used to invoke business method. They are an
adapter between HTTP and the rest of your application. 

See also Section 2.5 of the User Guide 

http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/building_model.html#business_logi
c

"[Arrange] things so that your Action classes (part of the Controller
role, as described below) translate  all required information from the
HTTP request being processed into property setter calls on your business
logic beans ... Such a business logic class can be reused in
environments other than the web application for which they were
initially constructed."

Re: Sorting at client side

John, your solution is similar to how most people would do it, but it 
wouldn't be client side sorting. The only way you are going to do client 
side sorting would be to use javascript or an applet... Personally, I 
wouldn't recomend client side sorting. 

Raj, are you sure you want to do this on the client side?

Re: can i invoke two account forms

read back in an action where the form matches the saved, and copy the saved
into the new?
which isn't the same as a session scoped form, and requires a scheme to

Re: Question ?

[Ted Husted]

What does the generated HTML in your browser look like. 

When the request goes up to the Action, it really doesn't know whether
it was a password field or not. It should just see
passwordagain=whatever - which would be picked by an setter named
setPasswordagain 

Is the second A capitalized?

Re: Form Bean

[Ted Husted]

You shouldn't have to override the reset method, the default method does
nothing. 

The ActionController does not recreate a session bean. If one is there
it calls reset, and populates it. If you check the code, you will see
that it is quite careful, and even looks twice to be sure. 

Perhaps there is another bean in request scope that is being accessed
instead.

Generally, you should not have to create the ActionForm beans yourself.
If it is specified in the mapping, the Controller is guaranteed to
create it for you.

Question ?

Hi, All,
I have a simple question. In my JSP I want to set two password cell, but in
my coresponding FormBean's validate method, I can not get passwordagain,
even I do not set passwordagain in my formbean, it also does not report
error.
So I found the second html:password always omited, is it true ?

RE: Sorting at client side

[John Schroeder]

Raj,

I have implemented this.  I have created an object called Table which holds
tabular data (typically populated from a ResultSet).  This object has a
sort() method which takes the column index as a parameter and will sort the
Table according to that column index.

On the JSP side, I have 2 tags:
 TableTag- iterates over the contents of a table.
 TableColTag - displays (formats) a particular column (for the row) in the
table - e.g. displays the cell.

For each of the header columns I have used an arrow graphic that is a link
to an action with a parameter of sort (ascending or descending) and column
name.  This will sort the table and return it to the JSP.

Let me know if this is something that you might want to look at for your own
use.

This is actually quite good, but I'm a nit-picker ;-)

Personally, I don't consider Action subclasses to be business objects.
Rather, they should be used to invoke business method. They are an
adapter between HTTP and the rest of your application. 

See also Section 2.5 of the User Guide 

http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/building_model.html#business_logic

"[Arrange] things so that your Action classes (part of the Controller
role, as described below) translate  all required information from the
HTTP request being processed into property setter calls on your business
logic beans ... Such a business logic class can be reused in
environments other than the web application for which they were
initially constructed."

True. You might specifically mention error messages, since that is the
central role of the i18n features.

Isn't this really part of 2?

 
> 4. Allows the input (data entry) JSP/Servlet to be specified for each Action

Not exactly. The JSP's specify an ActionMapping. If automatic validation
is used, this mapping should include an input path (URI) to use in the
case of an error. This may or may not be the JSP that submitted the
form.

 
> 5. Provides custom tags to delegate many of the JSPs' HTML commands and Servlets'

The JSP already handle the println part. The custom tags replace
scriptlets, and simplify access to framework resources, like the
localised labels and messages.

This is also a big part of what the custom tags do.

True, modified by (1).


> 8. Data validation can be turned on or off in web.xml.

Not true. The "validate" switch is really a misnomer, and refers to the
format of the Struts configuration file. Validation can be controlled on
a mapping by mapping basis (as discrete as it gets).

 
 Struts Disadvantages:
> 1. Instead of direct dispatching by controller Servlet(s), dispatching is defined in 
>an XML file, adding a layer of indirection overhead to the architecture.

I would say that the indirection is a good thing, since it decouples
your architechture from physical URIs. The mappings are all logical
URIs, and all the supporting classes and JSPs can be changed without
changing the names used by any of the mappings. 

The mappings actually reduce overhead, since they allow the use of
light-weight actions rather than deploying another servlets for every
task.

Not true. Actions are very easy to subclass, and most people do. 


> 3. Struts internationalization is limited to static strings and does not include

Struts doesn't "limit" internatonalization in any way. Your business
components are free to internationalize data in any way it likes. If you
have another i18n system, the message resource object could be
subclassed to use that instead. The design is based on an interface, so
any backend object could be used. 

The Sstrings are also not static, but "templates" that accept
replacement parameters. To write a message from whole cloth, simply
design a key like 

error.dynamic = {0}

in the Application Resoources.

So how does that work when you need to define several hundred properties
for several different locales?

Depends on the Job at hand - as Peter says, "different" is a better word for
sure. Struts concentrates on specific areas of the application development
process, whereas Expresso adds capabilities for database-stored security,
robust relational/object mapping, background job handling and scheduling,
self-tests, log4j integration, and so forth. Struts is a perfect project for
us to integrate with, as the two frameworks we're parallel in design
techniques in the area of UI and presentation, yet with not much overlap.

There's also a collection of other OSS projects built with Expresso that
might be useful to you right away, including eForum (discussion forums),
ePoll (voting/polling), and eSearch (flexible search engine). The UI for
each of those is now Struts-based.

Not *quite* yet - but very close indeed. Work is actively underway for this.

Re: can i invoke two account forms

easy. An ActionForm is a bean with properties of any type. add two
properties each of  a type extending ActionForm -- so, an actionForm
containing two forms. Sequence: (the usual) -- user request, action populate
forms, user input, user submit, action process, forward any.

So, what is the sequence in which 'recuperate' a first form makes sense?

Form Bean

[Cameron Ingram]

Hi all!

 Ok here is the problem I have a form bean that I create in an action class, I 
then set the variables in it and then add it to the session.
This is before the corresponding jsp has been loaded  The jsp is loaded and it appears 
that the action servlet is then recreating the form bean and re-adding it to the 
session, thus all of the fields I set are set back to there original values. I 
overrode the reset method so I know that it's not calling that to clear the variables. 
 As I understand it the action servlet should check to see if it's in the session 
before it recreates it. The name I am using to define it in the session is the same 
name that the struts-config file uses to define the name. Any ideas???



This is the name that I am using when the 
form bean is added to the session.
  type="net.pscu.ndswebutils.EditDeleteUserNdsForm"/>

Re: IBM VisualAge WTE and struts

[SLBrand]

Hi Alan,

In the instructions I posted, (see 
http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg16646.html), I 
outline a strategy of replacing the files in the "IBM XML Parser for Java" 
project.  I believed that the instructions are pretty explicit on exactly how 
to do this so if I've missed a step, please let me know and I'll amend the 
instructions. (although a number of people have already followed these 
instructions and told me they work fine).

Since I posted the instructions, Eric Rizzo
 has noted (see 
http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg16663.html) 
that it might be more beneficial to separate out these files and therefore 
simply remove the .org packages from the "IBM XML Parser for Java" project 
and then import Xerxes into it's own project (presumable called Xerxes?).  I 
have not tried this yet and so can't speak to this effect ... but if I get 
time I'm planning on trying it out since I agree with Eric that this is a 
cleaner way to go.

Struts does not use ApplicationResources.properties as real properties. The

RE: Hashmaps and string keyed properties

[Viral V. Tolat]

The bug you mention may be the problem. The property we were accessing was
read-only, i.e., there was only a getter method and no setter method.  We'll
get the nightly build of Common BeanUtils and try it out.

>From an implementation point of view, we may use different implementation of
Map, rather than HashMap, but we want the Map interface functionality.

I'll look at the BeanUtils code and see what we can do in terms of enhancing
MappedPropertyDescriptor.

Does the nightly build of Struts use the nightly build of Common BeanUtils?

Viral

Subject: RE: Hashmaps and string keyed properties



Viral,

Could you be more precise on the runtime exception you get?
What you are trying to do should be possible with the Common BeanUtils.
However there is a bug that is fixed only in the nightly build of the
Commons BeanUtils. This bug is about the inability to recognize the
read-only mapped properties in some cases. Perhaps you will resolve your
problem by taking the latest build of the commons BeanUtils
(commons-beanutils.jar).

The second thing you want to do is, if I understand well, the ability to get
the whole map of values, like it is possible in the JDK to get an array of
values for an indexed property using a no-arg getMethod. This is actually
not implemented. However the class MappedPropertyDescriptor in BeanUtils is
implemented in a way that makes it easy to do so. If you feel like it, you
can implement this feature yourself and perhaps submit the code for
inclusion in the BeanUtils. It should be easy to implement, have a look at
how the JDK IndexedPropertyDescriptor is implemented in Java and try to do
the same in MappedPropertyDescriptor. One concern however in implementing
this: is the type Map the best choice as a return value? The problem with
Map is that it does not enforce the use of String as keys. The other problem
was that it forces the use of standard Java collections (for example the JGL
HashMap could not be used). However I cannot think of any better
alternatives than Map...

The third thing you talk about, I'm not sure what. Using the current
convention for nested properties, you could do this:
method(key1).prop2(key2).prop3(key3), but I'm not sure that's what you want.

Hope this helps,

Fr.

Subject: Hashmaps and string keyed properties


Three questions.

First, we're trying to get the following to work with the Struts nightly
build



where SomeForm implements 
String getMethod ( String key ).  
We  get a runtime error in the write tag for this and we can't figure out
why.  Any suggestions?  Do we need the Bean 
Utils with indexed string contributor extension?  But if we take this, does
it merge with the current BeanUtils from 
Commons?

Second, we'd like to be able to access a HashMap directly from the taglibs,
similar to how an Array can be accessed. 
So we'd like to be able to do the same as above except that

HashMap getMethod()

returns a HashMap and doesn't take an argument. 

And lastly, we'd like to be able to nest Hashmaps and then have something
like



where getMethod returns a HashMap but then key1 through key3 index into
successive Hashmaps or other JavaBeans.  
Essentially we'd like to wrap our form beans around a hashmap. We'll then
write code in our action beans to convert the hashmaps to and from Java
business objects.  We just don't see alot of value in creating a FormBean
for every domain object of which we have several hundred.

RE: reset method of ActionForm bean

[Tom Klaasen (TeleRelay)]

http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api-1.0/org/apache/struts/action/Action
Form.html#reset(org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping,
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest) states: 
"This method is called before the properties are *re*populated
by the controller servlet. " (* by me)

So the reset() method isn't called the first time your form is used,
only the second and following times.

Confused me too the first time I encountered it :-)

reset method of ActionForm bean

[Antony]

How should I configure struts-config.xml in order to let ActionServlet call the 
reset() method?

It appers that my reset method is never called.





Is something wrong with it?

Re: problem with i18n

You could try putting the following within the bean:message tag

locale="<%=session.getValue(org.apache.struts.action.Action.LOCALE_KEY)

RE: problem with i18n

[Marcel Andres]

hi, 

1. Did you insert the application (I guess, yes)?
2. Like you, I have also to deal with different languages (de.ch/fr.ch/it.ch/...you 
know what I mean for CH).
I just checked my resource filesmaybe, you have a problem, because you 
named it ApplicationResources_de-ch.properties instead of 
ApplicationResources_de_ch.properties (note the "_" instead of "-").

RE: Usage of struts in financial institutions

[Reddin, Greg]

Yes.  The company I work for develops software for financial
institutions and we are involved in multiple projects based on Struts.
These products will be installed on the bank's intranet systems.  To my
knowledge we are not developing any Internet apps using Struts, but
there is no technological reason for that.

RE: Feedback on Struts Pros and Cons

[Anthony Chater]

Hi,

I've just finished building  a prototype using Struts and talking to EJB
session beans at the back end and can give you a brief sum up of my own
practical experiences 
without answering you point for point :
The chief adavantages are :
simplified  error handling (some) / easy internationalisation / automatic
form handling - think of validation and parameter retrieval / ready-made tag
libraries for code-free JSPs / localisation of all action handling

Incidentally some of the disadvantages you list are trivial : almost every
servlet based framework I've worked with requires at least one class to be
programmed per action.
A Struts tip : think in terms of Actions not pages;   so actions can be
reused by many pages
And.. Data entry validation can be  toggled per JSP (per form actually; you
simply don't implement the validate method if you don't want it!)

Disadvantages are :
- only for JSP / servlets
- a relatively steep learning curve (but thereafter vastly improved
productivity)
- you're bound to the Struts tag libs if you use them (which you should). If
you ditch Struts you can start layouting again -:)
-  (your point )internationalization is limited to static strings


Cheers
Anthony

http://webAppWriter.com
is currently providing the Expresso 3.11 or non-Struts version.
It is a crude shadow of it's Struts version, which is still a few weeks
from release, but gives you the basic idea.

It has many benefits of course, but until it is open sourced it is a bit of a
pain to have to use is on someone elses site.

That was the basic idea, if you can wait the few weeks for the Struts
version to be available.

Setting bean property with custom tag

[Graham King]

   I'm building my first struts App and would appreciate some help with 
the following:

  Currently I have a JSP with the following code:




***
SUMMARY: Essentially I want to be able to replace the above two lines 
with a struts tag where I don't have to give it the class name, because 
my bean is already defined in struts-config hence struts knows the 
class. Is there such a thing or is the above the recommended way ?
  More details follow.
***

View details

  This is in the struts-config as follows:

Bean:
  

Global forward:


Action:
  


  The NameAdminController uses the 'surname' as a key into the db to 
load the details.

  This works fine, but it means I have the name of the class in my 
struts-config and in my JSP. Struts already knows the class for 
'nameForm' so I'm hoping for a tag of the form:
   

  Is there such a thing ?

  There is a  tag but it seems to want my nameForm to be a 
String.

  Many thanks,
  Graham King.

There is still the possibility to subclass ActionServlet and so create own
controller.

A bit can be achieved with the placeholders in constant strings.

Struts does not use ApplicationResources.properties as real properties. The
file
is used only as a handy tool for peristing string maps. In our projects we
use
database backed internationalization with struts.

Hi

Sorry to post here but I have tried numerous times to get off this list
(unsubscribe) but the mailer keeps telling me I am not subscribed, I even
checked the headers of my mail and sent a message directly to the list owner
and I don't get unsubscribed.

It's funny I used ot be on this list, I unsubscribed and then like 4-5 weeks
later I'm back on it with the list having no idea I am getting mail.

LIST OWNER please get me off this list.

Thanks.

No, because ~better~ is a meaningless word. Some people like to use vi or
notepad, others prefer an IDE. Either one get's the job done.

Expresso is a relatively heavyweight framework, incorporating tons of features
such as automated table manipulation, caching, logging, xml automation, testing,
registration objects, on and on.

As such, it is perfect for guys like me, who just want to get the work done, but
a challenge for someone who feels cramped using interfaces not invented on his
own box, or wishes to use raw J2EE without all the help from the 300 or so
classes that Expresso provides.

Using webAppWriter, I can get an app written and deployed in an hour, as opposed
to the month or so it took me when I was using straight J2EE. This Struts
version, however, is still not public.

Even though most of Expresso is optional, there does not appear to be a large
percentage of developers who use it in that manner.

Expresso uses mostly Apache modules such as log4j, but the data access objects
are it's own, and there you will find the biggest time savings for your
development schedule.

> Expresso has a framework for EJB right?

No, but as soon as we get some more contributors active in that area, it should
be forthcoming. All the pieces are in place...:)

Feedback on Struts Pros and Cons

[David Bueche]

All,

I work with a company that is new to Java and we are evaluating tools for a standard 
J2EE architecture.  One of the Model 2 approaches we are looking at is Struts.

After spending some time evaluating Struts, I have assembled the attached list of pros 
and cons, but would like to get some impartial third party feedback.  If anyone sees 
anything I missed, I would appreciate your insights.

Thanks!

Struts Advantages:

1. Provides a controller ActionServlet that dispatches requests to the appropriate 
business actions (Action subclasses) provided by the application developer.  All 
dispatching is defined in an XML file (struts-config.xml).

2. Supports internationalization of messages and prompts.

3. Provides message collections that can be easily displayed in a subsequent 
JSP/Servlet.

4. Allows the input (data entry) JSP/Servlet to be specified for each Action subclass, 
so control can be returned to that JSP/Servlet in the case of an error.

5. Provides custom tags to delegate many of the JSPs' HTML commands and Servlets' 
"println" statements to tag libraries.

6. Automates population of the JSP domain object (ActionForm subclass) with input data.

7. Allows data entry validation (ActionForm subclass) and business logic (Action 
subclass) to be decoupled from the presentation JSPs/Servlets.

8. Data validation can be turned on or off in web.xml.


Struts Disadvantages:

1. Instead of direct dispatching by controller Servlet(s), dispatching is defined in 
an XML file, adding a layer of indirection overhead to the architecture.

2. Requires behavior typically factored for commonality in controller Servlet methods 
to be duplicated in every Action subclass (some common behavior could possibly be 
delegated to additional classes or components and accessed by each Action subclass).

3. Struts internationalization is limited to static strings and does not include 
internationalization of data returned by a business component.

4. Struts internationalization requires an ApplicationResources.properties file, which 
conflicts with the current Enterprise Java Application Standard of definely properties 
directly in the web.xml file.

5. Presentation of message collections is predefined in tag libraries (although these 
could be modified for more specialized presentation).

6. Requires understanding of custom tags and tag libraries, as well as their 
deployment.  While this may not be a problem for more advanced developers, this will 
add another layer of complexity for less experienced development and support teams and 
requiring more intensive EAS involvement.

7. Delegating much of the presentation layer to custom tags can make the final 
HTML/presentation less clear than HTML placed directly in the JSPs/Servlets.

8. Data entry validation is toggled on/off on a global basis only (not on a per 
JSP/Servlet basis).

9. Requires recompilation and redeployment when data entry validation or business 
component invocation changes.   This is unnecessary if data entry validation and 
business component invocation is performed in a JSP.

10. Requires at least one additional class per deployed page: an Action subclass to 
invoke the corresponding business component or model behavior and forward control to 
the subsequent JSP/Servlet.  Fewer classes are required if this behavior is performed 
within the controller Servlet.

11. Struts applications, with their Action and ActionForm subclasses and the 
struts-config.xml file, add additional development and deployment complexity that may 
be too difficult for less experienced developers to grasp.

Re: can't understand the struts example documentation

[John Yu]

See the description for the 'action' attribute at

 http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/struts-html.html#form


In short, Struts automatically append '.do' to the action attribute 
('/login') of . This is the part the doco hasn't explained in 
details.

can't understand the struts example documentation

[Forrester, Tom]

Hello



I am trying to understand Struts. I have read the following part of the
documentation relating to the Struts example application that comes with the
v1.0 binary download.



LogonAction.java 
The initial JSP submits its form to logon.do. If you check the servlet
mappings in the example's web.xml you will see that requests for *.do files
are directed to the Struts "action" servlet (an instance of ActionServlet).
In the example, the ActionServlet refers to struts-config.xml for its own
mappings (among other things), which is where we find the reference to
logon.do:


and a form bean to go with the "logonForm" action: 

 

 In the action mapping, the path property tells the ActionServlet to forward
a request for logon.do to the LogonAction object. The input property tells
the LogonAction object where it can pass control to get information from the
user.



The problem is as far as I can see, the initial JSP (logon. jsp) does not
submit its form to logon.do it actually uses /logon and since /login is not
mapped in the web.xml file I can't work out how the flow control works. 

Is this part of the documentation wrong, or I am I missing something?

If you think its wrong, can you tell me how it should read or more
importantly how the control flow actually works?

RE: Digester Problem!!!!

[Tom Klaasen (TeleRelay)]

I would suggest: consider option 1): you'll really have to do some
things yourself if you want to run this example on a nightly build. You
won't if you just install struts1.0 for looking at the examples, and
then you can learn. And if you want to use some code from the example,
you'll just have to deal with migrating that piece, and not the whole
example.

What other solution do you see? Having someone on the list doing the
migration for you?

You're doing something wrong. You can't nest custom tags so a

dynamic value for radio button inside logic:iterate

[Sanjay Duggal]

Hi,
I have a jsp where i'm using the "logic:iterate" tag to iterate over a
collection which has been put into the session by an action class with
the attribute= "collectionx"
On my jsp, I now need to iterate through the collection which has
elements that are objects of the class: SpecialTermsResult(this
bean/class has two String fields: code & description) & display
dynamically generated radio buttons with code & descriptions.The value
attribute of each radio tag should be the same as its code(the property
"code" of the bean SpecialTermsResult). How should I code for that?Is
the following code right?




"/>





  





or should it be coded like this:





 propertyX

In JspInsider the web.xml file is created FROM a blank.war file, which I
guess is preset for the tutorial. So, it's not the case to say it is wrong.

But if you aren't using blank.war as the base for your web.xml file and is

RE: redirection

[Lacerda, Wellington (AFIS)]

In JspInsider the web.xml file is created FROM a blank.war file, which I
guess is preset for the tutorial. So, it's not the case to say it is wrong.

But if you aren't using blank.war as the base for your web.xml file and is
trying to set it from scratch, you must set this mapping to the Action
Servlet indeed.

Re: redirection

[Ted Husted]

The better syntax in your html:form would be 



where there is something like this in your struts-config.xml




If this is in place, then there must be something wrong with your
installation of Tomcat or your web.xml. 

A setup like this in your application's web.xml 

  
  
action
   
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet
<.../>
2
  

  
  
action
*.do
  

tells the container to foward the *.do requests to the Struts
ActionServlet. If it doesn't, then your container is broken.

OK, so there actually is NO file logon.do (which is correct). I suppose the
problem might be that in  the attribute action should contain
only the name of the action and not the name of the mapping. So try
action="lesson1/logon" instead on "lesson1/logon.do"

RE: Digester Problem!!!!

1) Use struts 1.0 for toying around with the example, and if you think
you can use it, get the source code, and do a search&replace.
2) Notify the author of the example, and ask whether he wants to make a
struts post-1.0 version.

You configure that in the web.xml deployment descriptor file!

You MAP the actions and actionForwards in the struts-config.xml, but you must
map the path or extension modes in the web.xml file! In your case:

  
action
*.do

Struts routes the login.do to the action with the corresponding "path",
in this case "logon". Then the Action is executed. Based on the return
value "mapping.findForward("xxx"), the forward with that "xxx" name of
this action will be called. All this is configured in struts-config.xml.

A .do file is the file extention that i have used for mapping purposes.

I have this in my jsp : 

and then web.xml redirects it and it should then be processed by my java

However I am simply redirected in my browser to logon.do which doesnt exist!

Re: Re: Multiple resource files

[torben.norling]

Hi,
The ActionServlet loads one resourcefile and stores the information at the 
servletcontext.

One solution is to have your own "Startup-servlet" to load extra resources to the 
servlet context. You can access those later within your application. If you use Tomcat 
4 (Have access to Servlet 2.3 features) you can write a contextlistener instead.

>From Servlet init method:

ServletContext ctx = config.getServletContext();
MessageResourcesFactory myFactory = 
(MessageResourcesFactory)MessageResourcesFactory.createFactory();
MessageResources errMsgs = 
(MessageResources)myFactory.createResources(config.getInitParameter(("errors")));
MessageResources wrnMsgs = 
(MessageResources)myFactory.createResources(config.getInitParameter(("warnings")));

ctx.setAttribute "myapp.errors",errMsgs);
ctx.setAttribute("myapp.warnings",wrnMsgs);

web.xml servlet definition:

  mystartup
  se.bluefish.StartupServlet
  
  errors
  com.bluefish.MyErrorResources
  
  
  warnings
  com.bluefish.MyWarningResources
