Re: Pass parameters between Action classes

[Jim Crossley]

As long as the first action's forward element in struts-config refers
to an Action servlet and not a jsp, your example should work.
Something like this maybe:

Pass parameters between Action classes

[Enrique Rodriguez]

I'm very newbie with struts and i have one question:

Is possible pass paramter throwugh action classes???

I explain it better??

Action 1:
String param = "param";
request.setAttribute("param", param);
return (mapping.findForward ("Action2"));

Action 2:
String param = (String)request.getAttribute("param");


I'm trying to do it but its imposible. The only way to pass parameters is
with a Form class.

What am I doing wrong???

Thanks in advance and pardon for my english, Enrique.

Re: reg Forward action

[Mikael Eriksson]

Hi

  Since the perform method should take an ActionForm as its form parameter
and not an ReferralForm your perform is probably not called at all...
change the declaration and cast the form to a ReferralForm inside.

If you do get inteo the perform method, try to put in some more trace printouts
to see that you are not returning null or something like that.

Tiles question: Is it possible to insert a ComponentDefinition into a Tile context dynamically?

[Chris Cool]

Hi,

I have a tile that reads items from a PutList list and then inserts each
item into the current page. 

   
   
   

When the items in the list are tiles defined in my tileDefinitions.xml file,
the tiles are inserted into my JSP correctly. However, I want to dynamically
create a tile definition and insert it into the page context. 

I am generating the ComponentDefinition in my tile controller and accessing
the "itemList" where I add the name of the dynamically generated definition:

  /* get the item list and insert new tile def into it */
  ArrayList itemList = (ArrayList)context.getAttribute("itemList");
  if (itemList != null) {

HashMap map = new HashMap();
map.put("name", "newtarget");
map.put("link", "newtarget.do");

ComponentDefinition newItem = 
new ComponentDefinition("new.item",
  "/mytiles/simpleItem.jsp",
map);

DefinitionsUtil.setActionDefinition( request, breadCrumbItem );
itemList.add("new.item");
  }

In my tile, the "itemList" contains the "new.item" entry, but it does not
appear to find the ComponentDefinition I created.

Thanks for you help.

Re: Application without cookies and sessions

[Sean Willson]

There are a number of ways this can be handled. You can set your timeout 
at a larger value but then you can have memory bloat if there are to 
many sessions. You can also create an object that implements the 
HttpSessionListener or HttpSessionBindingListener interface. When the 
user logs in place this object in their session, this object being the 
user object you want to save or the state you want to save. Be sure it 
implements one of both of those interfaces. Then when the container 
attempts to remove or destroy the session you can save the users data 
either to the database or serialize it somewhere to flat file, that's up 
to you. You can then as a part of the login process on your site check 
for serialized user data somewhere (database or flat file depending on 
how you implemented) and load that data back into their session. That 
way you don't lose any data they may have saved.

Hope this helps some ... don't be afraid of sessions, just make sure you 
intelligently manage them.

Sean

RE: Using 2.3 Filters and Struts

[Todd G. Nist]

John,

The actual filter in deployment here only stores the user object once in the
session.  I thought that was a major oversight on my part and I had to go
check the actual code when you mentioned it; Thanks for the comment.  The
filter, checks to see if the user object is valid and if not, but the user
has been authenticated by the container, then the user object is created and
stored in the session, otherwise the user is sent to an error.jsp or
login.jsp page.  From that point, the filter always checks the user object
in the session, but does not create it again.  This was left out during the
cutting and pasting of code, sorry about that.  So with regards to you first
question/comment, I would agree with creating the user object only once.

Our filter mapping is handled at the /app/do/* and /app/pages/ level where
app is the specific web application.  All our actions are currently mapped
to the /do/* and you are required to be logged in to perform any action
under specific applications, i.e. a Buyer Site and Supplier Site exchange
type application.  We also have the basic portal or informational site which
is a different /app and requires no authentication to get into.  All .jsp's
are stored in the pages directory with the exception of those required to
support the login.jsp, error.jsp and index.jsp.

When a user first hits the site they are presented with the index.jsp which
is using tiles to define the screen layout.  One of the tiles created is the
"login" tile which allows a valid user to login to either/or the
Buy/Supplier Site.  The links for Buyer/Supplier point to an action
/app/do/loginAct?action=Buyer  or /app/do/loginAct?action=Supplier. Since
the /app/do is a protected resource the container presents the Form based
login.jsp page.  If the user is authenticated, we get the request in the
filter, create the user object, and the pass the action to the loginAct.
The login action is our case does little more then forward the user to the
appropriate page based on login success.  If there are any problems with the
login, the filter catches them and forwards the user to an error.jsp page
with the appropriate error messages.

The above could be done just as easily in the action, but we opted to do it
in the filter since at some point we my use our on security model and by
pass the container implementation completely.  So by doing things here in
the filter, we are all set if we decide for any reason we need to change the
flow of the application. (I think)

Regards,
Todd

Thanks Todd!
I've developed a very similar solution.  Here are a couple of
questions/comments about the code:
1. I noticed that you are storing the user object in the session every time
this filter is invoked with a valid user.  My solution sets the user object
once in the session after a successful login in the LoginAction class.  Do
you see any issues with setting it once?
2.How do you handle the filter mapping?  Do you have a directory that
contains all the pages that a user has to be logged in to be able to view?

Thanks for the help,
JBR

In your filter, you can do something like the below.  We have implemented
something similar to this but have container managed security on top of it.
So the container managed security gets invoked first and then the filter,
processes the request.  This lets us add any additional information to the
session to ensure "logged inness".  Now when the session times out, the any
resource which is protected is first processed by the container managed
security, and then the filter is invoked.

You could just as easily use only the filter for ensuring "logged inness".

Hope the below helps.

Re: getting validation errors on initial display of a form

[Anant Sagar]

Since you are calling "names.do"   directly, formbean calls validate() method before 
forwarding to appropriate action class and hence the erros are displayed.
Call your form using this  http://localhost:8080/starrd/pages/app/Name.jsp   initially 
 
and set action="/app/names" while  submitting. 
Hope that may help .

Re: reg Forward action

[Anant Sagar]

Try putting attribute input="/result.jsp" in tag and
call  "/loginComplete.do" only when you submit the form.
Hope that might help

Object Mapping w/ Struts?

[James A. Hillyerd]

I am looking for an object-mapping (to sql relational DB) solution for
Struts.  

I have a medium sized database application which I've developed in
struts.  (around 25 tables in PostgreSQL)  I've been using a home-brew
lightweight data-access bean system -- using perl scripts to generate
beans that interact with the database.  The java source these scripts
generate need a lot of manual editing, so making changes to the object
model can be a nightmare. 

I tried downloading Torque 2.1, but had problems, so then I tried Torque
3.0b1.  It seems like Torque isn't going to integrate well with my
already existing tables.  I use some postgres types such as TEXT and
BOOLEAN, which I would expect to map to LONGVARCHAR and BIT
respectively, but in the SQL that torque spit out they were "bytea" and
"".  I can't find mention of "bytea" in postgres docs, and obviously ""
isn't going to do much for me. =) 

After reading the Torque docs, I really like what it offers but I'm not
sure that it will work for me.  Are there any other solutions that
people can recommend?  Or should I try modifying torque to fit my needs?
I don't have any EJB experience but I've heard good things about JBoss. 
I've also heard the going EJB can really slow an application down. I've
also noticed some talk of Expresso on this list, would this be worth
trying?

Thanks for any advice!

getting validation errors on initial display of a form

[Dick Starr]

I am new to Struts and am using Ted's sample logon app as my basis for
learning. His part works fine. I added a new jsp page that contains two
fields, created a form bean & an action form with validation edits. My
problem is that when I execute my form via
http://localhost:8080/starrd/app/names.do I get validation errors appearing
immediately (before I enter any data in the form). I can't believe thats
normal: I must be doing something wrong.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Dick Starr

Here's the pertinent parts of my struts-config:

  
  

  


  

  


Here's my Name.jsp:


<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-bean" prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-html" prefix="html" %>






Name:
  

Address line one:
  









<%--

Allow user to submit username and password to logon action.

--%>

Here's the pertinent parts of SANameAction.java:

public final class SANameAction extends Action
{
  public ActionForward perform(ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException
  {
// Obtain fields from web tier
String name = ((SANameForm) form).getName();
String addr1 = ((SANameForm) form).getAddr1();

// Log this event, if appropriate
if (servlet.getDebug() >= SAConstants.DEBUG)
{
  StringBuffer message =
new StringBuffer("SANameAction: name = ");
  message.append(name);
  message.append(", addr1 = ");
  message.append(addr1);
  servlet.log(message.toString());
}

// Forward control to the welcome URI
// specified in the configuration.
return (mapping.findForward(SAConstants.WELCOME));
  }

} // End SANameAction

Here's the pertinent parts of SANameForm.java:

public final class SANameForm extends ActionForm
{
  //  Instance Variables

  private String name = null;
  private String addr1 = null;

  //  Properties

  public String getName()
  {
return (this.name);
  }

  public void setName(String name)
  {
this.name = name;
  }

  public String getAddr1()
  {
return (this.addr1);
  }

  public void setAddr1(String addr1)
  {
this.addr1 = addr1;
  }

//  Public Methods
public void reset(ActionMapping mapping,
HttpServletRequest request)
{
  setName(null);
  setAddr1(null);
}

public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping,
 HttpServletRequest request)
{
  ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
  if ((name == null) || (name.length() < 1))
errors.add("name",
  new ActionError("app.error.name.required"));
  if ((addr1 == null) || (addr1.length() < 1))
errors.add("addr1",
  new ActionError("app.error.addr1.required"));
  return errors;
}

} // End SANameForm

When I first execute the form via  http://localhost:8080/starrd/app/names.do
I immediately (before entering any data or executing the submit button) I
get validation errors displayed for name and addr1 and get the following in
my log file:

2002-01-21 20:19:19 action: Processing a GET for /app/names
2002-01-21 20:19:19 action:  Looking for ActionForm bean under attribute
'nameForm'
2002-01-21 20:19:19 action:  Creating new ActionForm instance of class
'com.starrcs.app.SANameForm'
2002-01-21 20:19:19 action:  Storing instance under attribute 'nameForm' in
scope 'request'
2002-01-21 20:19:19 action:  Populating bean properties from this request
2002-01-21 20:19:19 action:  Validating input form properties
2002-01-21 20:19:19 action:   Validation error(s), redirecting to:
/pages/app/Name.jsp

Then if I fill in the two fields with data, I do not get validation errors
(which is correct). Then this is what is in my log:

2002-01-21 20:19:37 action: Processing a POST for /app/names
2002-01-21 20:19:37 action:  Looking for ActionForm bean under attribute
