way to use with label value beans

[Rob Parker]

This may be a little complicated to explain. Here is a some background info.
I have a page that shows a list of clients (in an html table, not a form)
for a user and a form that lets the user either edit information for and
existing client (by selecting that client from the list) or add a new
client. A lot of the values for the client are populated via 
select lists using java.util.Collection classes containing LabelValue beans
that I pass in with the request. When I store the user's input in my
database, I store the "value" portion of the LabelValue bean. For example,
the value portion of the LabelValue bean for client status of "New" is "1",
which I store in the database as the integer 1.

The issue that I am having is when I pull the client information back from
the database to make the list of clients for the user to select from, I pull
back the integer 1 instead of the String "New" for client status. Is there
any easy way to pull the corresponding label for 1 from the Collection that
I pass in with the request so that I can display the label instead of the
Value - sort of like a  that selects a label from a Collection
on LabelValue beans for a specific value? It would be much nicer to do that
than to add fields to my form to hold the text representation of the
currently selected option. Hope this makes sense. Thanks,

Rob

Re: Using CSS with struts jsp's

[Ted Husted]

You can use the  tag, and then use relative referneces to
stylesheets and other assets. 

Though, I'm thinking we could really use a tag for specifying
stylesheets, since the relative references can get to be a pain. The
idea being you could specify a context relative path, and the tag would
render it correctly. 

html:link is already taken, so I guess the next candidate would be
html:rel

But for today, right-now,  and a relative path works just
fine :)

Hi Dennis Lee,

after you use native2ascii.exe, the encoding become UTF8

External Forward

[matthewr]

Hi all,
new to the list, so I apologise in advance if this has been asked
already.
 
I have created a page with a form, that posts to a servlet, does its
thing and
then forwards the request on to another website.
 
the problem is, when I set the properties back into the request scope,
the server
I am forwarding to doesnt see the request. (Note: this is from java to
Cold Fusion)
 
How can I forward the request with it?
 
So, I want to proces the request, add some of my things to it and then
forward
that on again to another site?
 
request.setAttribute("key","value");
return (new ActionForward("http://the.url.com";, true));
 
this doesnt work
 
Cheers..
 
Matt

You can just  always pass the external resource a return URL with that already
has the session id in it.

I figured that was probably what would happen in the case of cookies.
Is there an easy way to deal with the re-written url/disabled cookies case?
I want to be sure the right thing happens whether or not cookies are

Assuming your client is using cookies this should work automatically. If

Where did you put it?
You should put it before request parameters are copied into actoinForm
properties.

You can make a subclass of ActionServlet and put 'setCaracterEncoding'
in it like following:

// - sample subclass of ActionServlet -
public class MyActionServlet extends ActionServlet {

public MyActionServlet() {
super();
}

protected void process(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws java.io.IOException,
javax.servlet.ServletException {

request.setCharacterEncoding("ISO-8859-2");
super.process( request, response );

}

}
// - end -

The web.xml must be changed so that this subclass will be used:
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet -->
YOUR_PACKAGE.MyActionServlet

RE: resources location

[Jeff Oberlander]

It needs to be somewhere in the classpath.  Each app server uses their own
implementation of the classloader, so it will be dependent on the classpath
of your app based on the server.  web-inf/classes is in the classpath, but
the directory above that typically isn't.

Re: Using struts-template as taglib

David Geary discusses his Template taglib successor, Regions,
in this JavaWorld article:

http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2001/jw-1228-jsptemplate_p.html

An alternative approach to layout is to use the
Servlet 2.3 filter mechanism.

The SiteMesh taglib
(http://www.opensymphony.com/sitemesh/decorators.html)
and the Maverick MVC framework
(http://mav.sourceforge.net) use filters for
implementing layout.

Re: persistance for wizard type forms

[Ted Husted]

Because when you go from one page to another in a wizard, the properties
from the prior page can be reset. 

Select boxes and radio buttons would have one value or the other
submitted, and so resetting them is usually not important. 

Checkboxes if not set are not submitted at all. Sometimes when they are
toggled, the toggle is lost because a new checkbox parameter does not
come along to change true to false. Which is where the reset comes in :)

All this really only comes into play when ActionForms are stored in
session scope and persist between requests. Otherwise, a new form is
instantiated for the new request.

One approach to a wizard is to group the properties into pages, and pass
the page number as a hidden property. The reset and validation methods
can then use the page number to decide which set of properties to
validate.

It's also important to reset() select boxes.  I'd assume that radio buttons would
fall into this category too.

Still, I don't see why it would be a problem to blindly reset everything though...

RE: How to do an outcall but return to the session?

[David Larson]

Assuming that your dependent upon data that you've put in the session...

The problem I see you having here is that the request to the external
service could take longer than the session timeout on your application
server.  Unless you can guarantee that the turn-around time is going to be
some time increment significantly lower than the timeout, you're going to
have to create a mechanism to persist the session information and rebuild
the session information if a timeout does occur.  Otherwise, upon timeout of
the session, all session level information is lost.

Subject: How to do an outcall but return to the session?



Hi all,

I need to integrate an external web-based service with a
Struts-based app.  The chain of events are:

1. client invokes URL on my app within their current session.

2. My action class gets hit.  Sometimes it would immediately
forward to a JSP, but sometimes it must first bounce the user
to the external service before doing the forwarding.

3. When I forward the user to the external service it is by
doing a redirect, and I tell the external service where to send
the user back to by tacking on an appropriately-formatted
query parameter containing the return URL.  When the
user submits whatever is required by that service, the
service sends them to that URL (i.e. back where they
came from).

4. When the user gets back, they need to be in the same
http session they were in before being bounced to the
external service.  Lots of stuff is bound to their session,
and it would be a bad thing to have lost that context data.

How do I do this in Struts?  In particular, if I'm in an Action class
and constructing an ActionForward object to toss the user to
the external service, how do I make sure the session is preserved?
Does that happen automatically via cookie magic, or do I need
to extract a session id from somewhere and tack it on to the
URL for the return?  If the latter, how specifically do I do that?

Thanks!

  Reid

i think thats the default behavior for an ActionForm.reset()  In your class
that extends the ActionForm, add a reset().  You can leave it empty at
first, and your ActionForm bean in the session shouldn't get cleared.  We
use this capability to set initial defaults and to optionally clear values
based on a button (i.e. New Order vs. Similar Order button) - take a look at
the chunk of code below, its a sample from our user interface framework (i
stripped out the non-relevant stuff). 

Pete Zybrick

public class OrderEntryForm extends ActionForm implements IOrderEntry {
private boolean doReset;

public void setDoReset(boolean doReset) {
this.doReset = doReset;
}
public boolean getDoReset() {
return doReset;
}
/**
 * @see ActionForm#reset(ActionMapping, HttpServletRequest)
 */
public void reset(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request)
{
String fromPathName = mapping.getPath();
String submitTarget = request.getParameter("submitTarget");

// Process: OrderEntry
if (fromPathName.equals("/OrderEntry")) {
if ((submitTarget.equals("submit"))
|| (submitTarget.equals("cancel"))
|| (submitTarget.equals("enquiry")))
doReset = false;

// Process: OrderEntryResultsConfirmed
} else
if
(fromPathName.equals("/OrderEntryResultsConfirmed")) {
if ((submitTarget.equals("similarOrder"))

doReset = false;

if (doReset)

doReset = true;

public void defaults() {

I'm developing  wizard-type forms using struts. The data I entered
previously doesn't show up when I go back to the previous form even though I
use the same 'ActionForm' for all the wizard forms and I set the scope in
the action mapping to 'session'. What am I missing ?

RE: Question about forms and validation.

[S. Chong]

>Is there a way to get it to display the form as the user edited it?


Mike,

I'm also relatively new to Struts, and as such am not particularly sure that 
I should be posting with an answer, but here goes anyhoo...

I've encountered a similar problem to yours, and my solution was a three 
step approach.

First, create private String vars(propStr) in the actionForm class.

Second, modify the getProperty method to pass the string input into 
(propStr) before performing any validation.  If the validation passes,  pass 
the validated data into (propStr).

Third, modify the setProperty method to return (propStr).

If there's a cleaner way to do this, I'd really be interested in finding out 
how to do it, as I feel that this method is kinda clunky.

Thanks and good luck,
-Sherman

Re: Includes and processing time

[Arron Bates]

The type of include you're using here is a dynamic include. Meaning that 
the page to be included isn't simply added, it's compiled into its own 
servlet, and the page's context is passed to the included servlet. For 
the tags to work in the included servlet, they need all the taglib 
imports like your original JSP would.

Or you can try the other form of include, which simply takes the file 
and puts it in the larger file when the JSP is compiled (this is the 
behavior it seems you are expecting)...
<%@ include file="my_page.jsp" %>


Arron.

Re: property 'property' not set in NestedSubmitTag

[Arron Bates]

Believe it or not, this is as expected...

The nested extension is not to simply maintain the functionality of the 
original, but to provide it in the nested context. If you don't want the 
features of the nested context (the default submit tag), then use the 
original html:submit

When you use a nested tag, one thing is expected. The "property" 
property to be set and intended to be used in the nested context.
Also, where tags use a "name" attribute to identify a bean, this will be 
done automatically, supplied or not.

Just keep in mind, that if you don't need to nest a property, you should 
look at using the original tags in its place.
That's why all the tags weren't extended. Only those who could benefit 
from it.

Re: persistance for wizard type forms

[Ted Husted]

Be sure your reset() method is not blindly resetting the properties. The
default reset() does nothing, but people often have it reset everything.
The only important thing to reset() is the checkboxes, since the
browsers do not resubmit these if they are unchecked.

RE: How to do an outcall but return to the session?

[Alex Paransky]

Assuming your client is using cookies this should work automatically.  If
your client has his/her cookies disabled you must make sure to submit a
"re-written" url as the target for "returnTo" processing in your other
system.

Subject: How to do an outcall but return to the session?



Hi all,

I need to integrate an external web-based service with a
Struts-based app.  The chain of events are:

1. client invokes URL on my app within their current session.

2. My action class gets hit.  Sometimes it would immediately
forward to a JSP, but sometimes it must first bounce the user
to the external service before doing the forwarding.

3. When I forward the user to the external service it is by
doing a redirect, and I tell the external service where to send
the user back to by tacking on an appropriately-formatted
query parameter containing the return URL.  When the
user submits whatever is required by that service, the
service sends them to that URL (i.e. back where they
came from).

4. When the user gets back, they need to be in the same
http session they were in before being bounced to the
external service.  Lots of stuff is bound to their session,
and it would be a bad thing to have lost that context data.

How do I do this in Struts?  In particular, if I'm in an Action class
and constructing an ActionForward object to toss the user to
the external service, how do I make sure the session is preserved?
Does that happen automatically via cookie magic, or do I need
to extract a session id from somewhere and tack it on to the
URL for the return?  If the latter, how specifically do I do that?

Thanks!

  Reid

RE: Anomalies with (possibly AIX JVM issue?)

[Alex Paransky]

Some time back, we ran in to a problem between different servers.  The
problem, was that for some reason, the definition of the constants SKIP_BODY
and such mapped to different integers.  While running your code on one
platform, try to print out the values of the common tag constants such as
SKIP_BODY, SKIP_PAGE, EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE and others.  Make sure they are the
same under both platforms.

Folks,

I have an application deployed via a .ear file to WebLogic 6.1sp1 on NT and
on AIX. The following code works fine on NT:

   
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
   

  

On AIX, however, the  tag returns false, skipping the body. Note
that this is deploying the exact same .ear file (FTP'd from one system to
the other). It happens with Struts 1.0 and 1.0.1.

If I put the following code in the .jsp file just before the above code, the
dump to stdout makes it clear that I can access the bean and the property
method on the bean:

<%
Object obj = session.getAttribute("hostessDollarInfo");

if (obj != null)
{
System.out.println("Retrieved object of type: " +
obj.getClass().getName());
if (obj instanceof tlc.sam.om.jsp.policy.HostessDollarBean)
{
tlc.sam.om.jsp.policy.HostessDollarBean hdi =
(tlc.sam.om.jsp.policy.HostessDollarBean) obj;
tlc.sam.om.policy.domain.HostessDollarBonusTable[] tables =
hdi.getTables();
System.out.println(tables.length);
}
}
else
{
System.out.println("HostessDollarBean attribute couldn't be
retrieved!");
}
%>

If we remove the , we get a runtime error in the  to
the effect that the "tables" property doesn't exist. I've rummaged around
the code called by , and the only thing I can come up with is
that there's some JVM difference w/ the IBM JDK for AIX. I'm not ruling out
WebLogic, but in the code path b/w where the  tag starts
executing and the property utils methods are called, I don't see anyplace
where WebLogic could intervene.

Has anyone experience this problem, or does anyone have any insight? We're
about at our wit's end here in trying to use the iterate tag for this case.
As far as I know, it's working everywhere else we try it.

RE: persistance for wizard type forms

[Peter . Zybrick]

i think thats the default behavior for an ActionForm.reset()  In your class
that extends the ActionForm, add a reset().  You can leave it empty at
first, and your ActionForm bean in the session shouldn't get cleared.  We
use this capability to set initial defaults and to optionally clear values
based on a button (i.e. New Order vs. Similar Order button) - take a look at
the chunk of code below, its a sample from our user interface framework (i
stripped out the non-relevant stuff). 

Pete Zybrick

public class OrderEntryForm extends ActionForm implements IOrderEntry {
private boolean doReset;

public void setDoReset(boolean doReset) {
this.doReset = doReset;
}
public boolean getDoReset() {
return doReset;
}
/**
 * @see ActionForm#reset(ActionMapping, HttpServletRequest)
 */
public void reset(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request)
{
String fromPathName = mapping.getPath();
String submitTarget = request.getParameter("submitTarget");

// Process: OrderEntry
if (fromPathName.equals("/OrderEntry")) {
if ((submitTarget.equals("submit"))
|| (submitTarget.equals("cancel"))
|| (submitTarget.equals("enquiry")))
doReset = false;

// Process: OrderEntryResultsConfirmed
} else
if
(fromPathName.equals("/OrderEntryResultsConfirmed")) {
if ((submitTarget.equals("similarOrder"))
|| (submitTarget.equals("print"))
|| (submitTarget.equals("cancel")))
doReset = false;

// Process: OrderEntryResultsRejected
} 
}

if (doReset)
defaults();
doReset = true;
}

public void defaults() {

// set the default values in your form here

How to get List/Collection from request attribute with form validation.

[Nekkalapudi, Viplava]

If we have a proper ActionForm with the same field as our ,
validation error retrieves the user entered values.

But if we have a List/Collection of data saved as a property of the
ActionForm 
OR as request attribute,
How to retrieve this data, when there is a validation error. 
For Example:
I have a list retrieved from database and saved as request attribute 
(I don't want to use more data in session) 
to display as multiple radio buttons on one JSP as part of . 
I validate the ActionForm when the user tries to go to next page.
When I get validation error, the collection  gets is NULL.

Includes and processing time

[Bryan P. Glennon]

Hi -
This is really more of a JSP question, but since it involves struts
tags I figured I'd give it a shot here. I have a page which contains a
form built using the html:form taglib. Based on the users selection from
that form, I go off and do some processing and redirect the user back to
the same page. During the processing, an attribute gets set to indicate
which detail information to include. I try to include this detail page
(which is also an html:form form) by doing a jsp:include.  Basically,
the page looks like this:


Navigation form


Static stuff here



My problem is that the tags in the included page never get
processed. So, is there anyway I can make this work?

Sorry again for the OT post.

Cheers,
Bryan

Fwd: Href issue

Hi
I am having an issue with  tag of struts. I think I don't know how to use 
it.
Actually I have a java script fucntion which looks like this
function launchEdit(field, accField, relation, newType)
{
 currentField = document.editForm.field;
 currentAccField = document.editForm.accField;
 isRelation = relation;
var url = 
'LoadObject.do?parent=true&action=Edit&type='+newType+'&accNum='+accField.value;
window.open(url,'CreateNew','height=500,width=550,resizable=1,scrollbars=1');
}
And it needs to be called by passing the parameters that would also be dynamic for me 
(which will change everytime we call it.)

Can Someone throw some light on this issue as to how we achieve this functionality .
I would be highly thankful to you.

Thanks in Advance
Sidhartha

RE: Question about forms and validation.

[Witt, Mike (OH35)]

David, Thanks for you help ...

I'm doing all that you suggest.  As a matter of fact, when I submit the form
to 
update the database, all the fields in the form are automaticallly set like
I 
would expect.

My form is intially filled in with good data from the database.  Then I make
a 
change which will trip up the validation.  The validate() method does indeed

return errors, but when the form is redisplayed, the good data is shown
which 
originally came from the database.  I would like to see the bad data because

there may have been quite a bit of data entry with only a small error to be 
corrected.

Thanks again, Mike

Re: Question about forms and validation.

[David Gaulin]

Mike,

If you have the proper ActionForm class which represent the proper field in
you form and you use the struts html custom tag, your data should come back.
That is one of the best feature of Struts.

Hope this helps

David

Question about forms and validation.

[Witt, Mike (OH35)]

Hi,

I have a question about the validate method on the ActionForm.  From my
understanding, 
if a validation error is found, you set up a collection of ActionErrors and
return this.  This 
causes struts to forward back to your input form, correct?  

In my situation, I populate a form for editing.  When the submit is clicked,
I validate the entry.  
When a validation error occurs, it always displays the original form data.
Is there a way to 
get it to display the form as the user edited it?  Many times a large
quantity of good data is 
lost because of one bad field.  

Thanks for your help,

Mike Witt

RE: Model Persistence Survey

[Robert]

We have a persistence framework used in conjunction with our business
object foundation called eQ!. It follows the DAO pattern, and is similar
to how JDO works, where you tell the object to save it self, but that
work is delegated to a PersistenceManager. This PM can use any kind of
persister plugged in. Obviously, SQL persisters are the most common, but
we have also just created a persister that goes to EJBs, so the client
tier can tell the object to save itself, and it will actually happen on
the EJB tier. 

Along with this we have built adapters for Struts that allow the use of
only one ActionForm and Action class (via a scripting mechanism). We
will be providing a download of this foundation (with the struts
adapters and others) very soon.

For more info, www.browsersoft.com/eQ or email me:

I do not like surveys. But I would like to get a feel for "How are 
people implementing the model persistence". Sort of a popularity 
contest. Also if you did not like it, how would you do it next time.
So if you would please respond.

How do you implement model persistence to a SQL DB.

EJB (even for non-midleware needed webapps)

Expreso features

JDBC ResultSet w/ own base class

i Village /Tourge

JDBC RowSet 
(http://download-west.oracle.com/otndoc/oracle9i/901_doc/java.901/a90211
/rowset.htm)

Other?
Is there another way?


Right now I like RowSet, but what is popular out there?



Currious, TIA
Vic

ps: maybe one day those "hooks" grow on Sturts, so Struts takes a stance

on a good aproach for model persistance

Should all validation be done in the Action class instead of the ActionForm class?

[Dick Starr]

I'm new to web apps / struts and wanting know if there is any performance
reason to do initial validation in the ActionForm class (via
validate="true"). It seems to me that all validation should be done in the
Action class since then all the validation is in one section of code and
since the Action class gets called anyway. Also, I heard that there are
tools to automatically generate the ActionForm classes, which might be
another argument to not stick any additional code in them (in case you want
to re-generate them). Just wondering ...

Thanks,

Dick Starr

Re: using struts and javascripts together

[Ted Husted]

Yes. The thing to remember is that by the time the JavaScript fires, the
Struts tags have been rendered as plain, ordinary HTML, so everything
works just as it would on any Web page. By the time it gets to the
browser, there are no "Struts tags", only the regular HTML tags the
browser expects.

Hi,

I would like to know if I can use the struts tag in a

Here is a sample DAO Extended Form Bean code :

public class NameZoomFrm extends daoFormBean {

public String getFstName() {   //get it from _crs RowSet
 CachedRowSet cr = getCrs();
try{   this.fstName = cr.getString("first_name");  } // try

  public void setFstName(String aFstName) {   //get it from _crs RowSet

public void setLstName(String aLstName) {   //get it from _crs RowSet

public int retrieve(BigDecimal aBD) {

 // you must test this sql string manualy for a SQL IDE
 cr.setCommand("select * from contact where id = ?");
 // driver issues fix:

 cr.updateNull("first_name");
 cr.updateNull("last_name");

Re: jsp templates: using expression in content files

Have you tried Tiles? I'm working with it right now, and am on the cusp of
inserting dynamic tags... just an idea.

jsp templates: using expression in content files

[James Erb]

We're stumped folks.  I'm using struts templates as a way make UI
development more efficient--but we have the following issue.

Imagine a page like the following: 

<%@ page language="java"  %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld" prefix="template" %>




<%! String name = "bob"; %>






Untitled















We consistently get "symbol not found" compilation errors. Can it really be
that templates are good for the inclusion of only static content? We'd like
to use templates to include JSP content that contains expressions.

Also, we've tried  etc.

Please help..

How to do an outcall but return to the session?

[Reid Pinchback]

Hi all,

I need to integrate an external web-based service with a 
Struts-based app.  The chain of events are:

1. client invokes URL on my app within their current session.

2. My action class gets hit.  Sometimes it would immediately
forward to a JSP, but sometimes it must first bounce the user 
to the external service before doing the forwarding.

3. When I forward the user to the external service it is by
doing a redirect, and I tell the external service where to send
the user back to by tacking on an appropriately-formatted 
query parameter containing the return URL.  When the
user submits whatever is required by that service, the
service sends them to that URL (i.e. back where they 
came from).

4. When the user gets back, they need to be in the same
http session they were in before being bounced to the
external service.  Lots of stuff is bound to their session,
and it would be a bad thing to have lost that context data.

How do I do this in Struts?  In particular, if I'm in an Action class
and constructing an ActionForward object to toss the user to
the external service, how do I make sure the session is preserved?
Does that happen automatically via cookie magic, or do I need
to extract a session id from somewhere and tack it on to the
URL for the return?  If the latter, how specifically do I do that?

Thanks!

  Reid

RE: Model Persistence Survey

[Keith Chew]

Hi

FYI, Data Access Objects (DAOs) is not a persistence mechansim, it's a
design pattern used to encapsulate the mechanism.  The mechanism itself can
be JDBC (in the example you have given), Castor JDO, Sun JDO, or any other
O/R mapping tools' API.

RE: How to specify scope of bean for html:options tag.

Thanks for the help.

Luckily the search method is the way I need it.

Tell me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that the findAttribute(String)
method from class javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext is used by Struts tags.

This method "searches for the named attribute in page, request, session (if
valid), and application scope(s) in order and returns the value associated
or null" (cf. J2EE API Documentation).

Hope it helps.

Using a tag to compare two beans

[Afshartous, Nick]

Hi,

I'm trying to perform an equal test on two String values
accessed via two beans.  So I'd like to do something like:

  
   Yes, the two are equal
  

but it seems that only literal String values may be specified by
the 'value' attribute.  Does anyone have any suggestions on this ?
Thanks.
