Re: Is there a clean way to also get non-value names from a form????

[Vladimir Levin]

My approach to this has been as follows:

Cache the key-value pairs associated with the lookup table. My
approach is to have a bean in the servlet session that keeps
these values.

In the results page, use a custom tag which iterates through the
lookup table keys until it matches the key in the result, then
grab the value associated with that key and display it, e.g.



This would extract the countryCode for a corporation, e.g. CA
and match it against the list of pairs in countryCodeLookup
(this would store CA -> Canada, US -> United States, etc...), then
display the matched value, so Canada would end up being displayed
if the countryCode was CA.

Is there a clean way to also get non-value names from a form????

[Rick Reumann]

Sorry if this isn't really a struts specific problem per se, but I've
encountered it now while rewriting an application with struts...

Using struts tags picture the output being generated like:

DOG
CAT
FROG

Picture several of these multiple select drop downs that are used to
generate a search based on the criteria selected. The problem is on
the search results page I also want to include a display of the
options selected for the different search criteria. I'd be interested
in hearing how others have accomplished this task using struts.

Before using struts I wasn't populating a form bean so what I would do
is when the values were created I would create values like:
1_DOG
2_CAT
etc

I would then parse out the first numbers for use in the query and then
use everything after the first underscore to build an array for
displaying search selections.

In my current application the option lists are generated dynamically
from ArrayLists of particular beans. If the situation was as simple as
above I'd just have a nice little HashMap stored somewhere where I
could have the key be the number and the value by the String for the
animal. Unfortunately a Map doesn't really work well for this as the
ArrayList of beans coming from the business logic contain a lot more
than just two fields.

I don't really like this idea much but I'm thinking what I'll have to
do is create extra fields in the form bean to represent this
concatenated value and when it the setter is called it will also parse
what it needs to and set the other fields. Is there maybe a better to
do accomplish this task?

Thanks for any input.

Subject: Re: Forward after 
From: "Dave Barber" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

One thing we've done is to have our *Actions* all extend a base Action class
(ie. SecuredAction).

SecureAction extends Action {
  public ActionForward perform( ServletRequest, etc...) {
// check security, forward to login page, etc...
if (checkSecurity() ) {
return handleRequest( request, ...);
}
  }

  public ActionForward handleRequest( ServletRequest, etc...) {
// subclasses should override to do something
  }
}

This way, you don't have to muck around with the servlet, and you kind of
stay in the "controller" or command framework.  Even better, you can
subclass from different "base" actions to get different behavior like
"Secured", "Logged", etc, actions.

RE: Forward after

[Brett Porter]

I actually extended ActionServlet and intercept each request. From there, I
can check whether we are restricting certain paths, then check the login
cookie for the necessary permissions. If they haven't logged in, I forward
to the login page with the requested URL in an attribute.

This might not be the best approach. Can anyone suggest a better way while
still having it in the controller? Extending ActionServlet poses problems
for later if we start using Tiles with definitions when struts 1.1 is
released. Is there a way to plugin to the action servlet at the doPost/doGet
level as I currently do without extending it?

Whatever the case, this code should certainly reside in the controller, not
in a tag which is processed in the view because whatever the action is
doing, it has already processed it before checking auth.

I have spent quite a bit of time on this, hope you can shed some light here.
I am trying out most of the examples that come with struts distribution, but
keep running into the error below.  What else should I do to get it to work?
I apologize if someone has asked this before, I am pretty new to this.
Thanks.

RE: can't register struts-config dtd on tomcat 4.0.3 (1.4 LE) - P roxy problems?

[Brett Porter]

I'm really strecthing here, but:

* I was under the impression that it would use the dtd from the
struts.jar... are you using the v1.1 JAR in the webapp? Is there a problem
with the way 1.1 works, because I get this for v1.0:
register('-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.0//EN',
'jar:file:/var/www/shopping/dev/apps/webapps/shopping/WEB-INF/lib/struts-1.0
.1.jar
!/org/apache/struts/resources/struts-config_1_0.dtd'

* It is using crimson, but I didn't think that was what was included with
jdk1.4 (I could be wrong, I don't recall off-hand). If that's the case there
may be some sort of conflict, but there shouldn't be and it doesn't explain
the error.

* Have you tried using a small java program with a URLConnection to see what
happens when getting the URL? That'll affirm Java's network is at least
working correctly.

HTH, but maybe not :)

Man ... I've seen bad error messages - and I know there will always be those
times you have to just learn to "know" what the compiler is "trying to tell

Turns out I had pointed the 'config' initialization parameter to a

Subject: Very Annoyed at Struts 1.1/Tiles


I've gone step-by-step through the Tiles tutorial, and I continue to same
servlet exception:

Can't get definitions factory from context.

Could someone please give me a heads up?  I'm almost certain I have
everything set up fine, but when I start using definitions it barfs all over
me.  Has nobody else had this problem?

I've looked and looked but I see nothing helpful that would help me resolve
this myself.

Thanks so much!

Does anyone know if there is a date validator that can be plugged into the

date range. In other words the date range of november 4th, 1970 to november
4th 1969 is invalid.

RE: Singleton vs ServletContext

[Kipnis, Adam]

I played around with two different versions of Poolman. The earlier one (I
don't remember exact version numbers) had problems with the XML parser it
was using. It worked fine standalone, but as soon as I tried to use it in
combination with Orion, it failed. The later version, which I believe was
the latest, fixed that problem and seemed to work fine. But then we would
get random closures of prepared statements. I swapped Poolman out with
Orion's connection pool and everything worked fine from then on.

   I saw the online demo and I think this kind of tool is very useful.
   But I think this tool (as Struts Console) must be very integrated with 
the IDE to be really good.
   On JForm the demo talks about create a WAR file and do the deployment. I 
do not think this is the function of this tool. The IDE must do it. Even 
because create the form is just the begin of the job. After this you must 
create the code to forward the submited data, interate with the database 
and so on.
   The ideal tool to do this can be just like Struts console + some wizards 
to create forms (like JForms do) + better integration with the IDE.
   I use Struts Console in JBuilder but I feel a lack of integration with 
the IDE. For example on the type property of the forms beans I need to type 
my form class. Could be nice if I have a button to do the search of classes 
on my project.
   Of course to do it Struts must know about the classes avaliable on the 
project, so it must have some kind of callback functions to the IDE. But 
this can be implemented in a generic way so people can write this plugins 
to the IDE of choice.
   I know the creator of Struts console is a subscriber of this list so 
what he think about this idea ?

Struts 1.1/Tiles - Problem

[Eddie Bush]

Hi guys/gals,

I was hoping one of you might have a suggestion for why I continue to get the error:

Can't get definitions factory from context

I just began 'playing' with Struts 1.1/Tiles.  My previous experience is with Struts 
1.0.2.  I just searched my mailbox (I have been receiving struts-user mail for some 
time now, so I searched for an answer before sending this mail) but have found nothing 
useful.

I am using the nightly build distribution:  jakarta-struts-20020417.zip

Any suggestions are most appreciated.

Thanks so much!

Eddie

Relative URIs To and From "Includes"

[Micael Padraig Og mac Grene]

I have a bit of an unusual problem, I think.

I have the following sequence

  --> forward to an html page --> which includes a relative URI to an swf 
page --> which refers in an array to other "included" swf pages.

I can pretty much figure out the first two within the struts framework, but 
have no clue on the last one, since we cannot use struts tags in the 
Macromedia created swf.

Re: Stopping Tiles from logging

Ok, I figured out how to stop the logging:

1) Copy log4j.jar into WEB-INF/lib/
2) Create a log4j.properties in WEB-INF/classes/ that looks like:


log4j.rootCategory=warn, stdout

log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=[%d] %-5p: %m%n


The important bit is that "log4j.rootCategory" must have "warn" so
that only warnings and errors are logged.  This stops the info-level
entries.

What I don't understand is how this is all working.  Struts is using
the Jakarta Commons-Logging stuff.  According to it's Javadoc:

  
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/api/org/apache/commons/logging/package-summary.html

if no logging package is used (which was my case since I was using JDK
1.3.1 and I previously did not have log4j in WEB-INF/lib/), then
no-output logging should have been invoked.  Yet, I was still getting
output to stdout.  Does Struts fall back to SimpleLog somehow?  I
didn't see anything specifying SimpleLog.  Is there any way to have
the Commons-Logging spit out which logging package it ended up using?

response.sendRedirect(request.getContextPath() +
  "/login.jsp?done=" + done.toString());

After login is successful, it redirects to the "done" parameter.  I
would have thought that the query would need to be URL-encoded, but I
have not had a problem, yet.

BTW, sticking this in the URL seems like the best way, IMO.  Sticking
this in the session has potential to be trashed if the user has 2
windows open.  I've noticed that Yahoo! places a URL as a parameter if
you try and access a page that requires authentication, too:

  https://bills.secure.yahoo.com/bpp?u

image button question

[@Basebeans.com]

Subject: image button question
From: "Monker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
 ===
Hello,

I am trying to create an image button and set the img src within the action
class.  When I do this, I get a broken link to the picture...but, the link
back to the action class works.  I can display the pic as a regular image
(not a button), so I know the property exists and is the correct value.
Here is the code:



<%= displayterritory1 %> 

Can I not use a property like this within an image tag?  Is there a simple
work around?  I am using the current release of Struts, not the nightly
update or the Beta...and WSAD 4.02.

Thanks,

Britt

Tiles: Can't get definitions factory from context

[Eddie Bush]

Hi guys/gals,

I was hoping one of you might have a suggestion for why I continue to get the error 
mentioned in the subject.  I just began 'playing' with Struts 1.1/Tiles.  My previous 
experience is with Struts 1.0.2.  I just searched my mailbox (I have been receiving 
struts-user mail for some time now, so I searched for an answer before sending this 
mail) but have found nothing useful.

I am using the nightly build distribution:  jakarta-struts-20020417.zip

Any suggestions are most appreciated.

Thanks so much!

and have that servlet load on startup, you're not really that much different
than a standard singleton. Since there are usually more uses for an

Hi !!

My question is about the best way to implement a JDBC ConnectionPool for
Struts.
I've heard that the one that is already in Struts is not a good choice. 
I've also read many mails about PoolMan. 
In Servlets & JSP book from Marty Hall, he speaks also about Singleton.

What's the easiest way ? 
Has anybody a simple sample ?

Two really easy ways to do "dynamic forwards":

* Although most Struts apps call mapping.findForward() to locate the
  correct logical forward, you can actually create one of your own:

return (new ActionForward("/context/relative/path.xml"));

* In addition, an Action can directly write the response itself, and
  then return null instead of an ActionForward instance.  This signals
  the controller that no forward is required.  You would
  do this in your Action just like you would from a servlet -- call
  response.getWriter() or response.getOutputStream().  It is
  particularly useful when your Action generates binary output (such
  as a dynamically created image file).

One approach to dynamic class generation would be to use the BCEL package
at Jakarta:

  http://jakarta.apache.org/bcel

A second option is to take advantage of the new DynaActionForm
capabilities in Struts 1.1-b1 -- you declare the form bean properties in
struts-config.xml and don't actually have to write the form bean class
unless you need a custom reset() or validate() method.  Even if you do
need those, they are the only methods you have to write.

Re: Forward after

[Kevin . Bedell]

I've done this using other approaches than Struts.

- Prior to checking for login, store the SUCCESS URL in a property on a
bean that's in request scope.
- Have the login process pull this bean from the request upon successful
login and forward to the SUCCESS URL

In this scenario I'd recommend modifying the  tag to allow the
following two parameters:

  - "successForward" - this would allow forwarding to a page defined as
a global forward in the struts-config
 - "successURL" - this would allow the developer to specify a URL where
the user should forwarded upon login.

You should have all the source code for the  tag - making
these changes should be about as easy as any other solution.

RE: Forward after

[Robert]

I've done this by supplying the 'current' page as a parameter to the
login page/service. After a successful login, a forward is done to that
location. I'm not sure what your  tag looks like, but this
could be a parameter of it, which is then supplied to the login
mechanism. You could probably also supply the current page in the
session.

Struts Workflow Extension with CactusServletTestCase

[Homer, Christopher]

Hi,

We're currently evaluating the Struts Workflow Extension
(http://www.livinglogic.de/Struts/index.html) to see whether we can use the
authentication (and maybe the workflow) mechanisms within our own
Struts-based application.  Our initial findings have been very positive and
we have found the authentication to be effective and easy to implement -
thanks Matthias.

We are now trying to run a CactusServletTestCase unit test on our prototype
using the Extension.  We know these unit tests ran successfully prior to
modifying the code to make use of the Workflow Extension, but unit testing
after the modifcations produced erroroneous results.

Has anyone managed to run Cactus Test Cases with the Workflow Extension
successfully?

[Andy Timm]

I have some pages which require a user to be logged in
and some which do not.  If the  tag
determines that there is no user logged in, the user
is forwarded to the login page.  I'd like to remember
where the user came from and forward them there after
a successful authentication.  I'm sure there are
multiple ways of doing this and I would like some
advice.  Thanks, Andrew Timm

I believe 128bit encryption in IE5.x is an upgrade (free) from M$. I
think the default is 56 bit, but I may be wrong.

You probably want to ask this sort of question on the STRUTS-USER list
instead of here, but here's a common scenario that can cause Struts users
(or anyone else using an architecture that uses RequestDispatcher.forward)
grief:  if you are using relative path references for your images, those
paths get resolved against the request URI that the browser submitted to
-- not the URI of the page itself.  This is because the browser has no
clue that a RequestDispatcher.forward() call was done on the server side.

Example:

- Your app is installed at "http://localhost:8080/myapp";

- You have a main page "index.jsp", which therefore has the absolute URI
   "http://localhost:8080/myapp/index.jsp";.

- You have an image in an "images" subdirectory, which therefore has the
   absolute URI "http://localhost:8080/myapp/images/logo.gif";.

- You have Struts set up to use path based mapping to the controller
   servlet, so you get URIs like 
 "http://localhost:8080/myapp/do/getCustomer";
   in it (to execute the "getCustomer" action).

Now, consider what happens if you have the following tag in index.jsp:

   

and you execute "http://localhost:8080/myapp/do/mainMenu";.  This fails to
retrieve the image.  Why?  Because the *browser* is the one that resolves
the absolute URI of the image -- and it resolves it against the URI that
it submitted for this request:

   http://localhost:8080/myapp/do/images/logo.gif

which is obviously wrong.  Ways to get around this:

Re: Date fields in forms - what is the best way

[Danny Mui]

Personally I like to keep them as longs right now since the dateTime tag
library can format those in any way that is required
(http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/datetime-doc/intro.html).  It seems
cleaner to transport them from/to html pages that way.

RE: Accessing form bean from inside a custom tag, take 2

[James Mitchell]

Sorry if I'm late at getting you an answer.

But I hope others might find this helpful in the future as well.





If you follow the trail from the struts-example, you'll find just such an
example of what you are trying to do:
--
struts-config.xml
--
  



  




--
org.apache.struts.webapp.example.EditRegistrationAction
--

163 form = new RegistrationForm();
164if ("request".equals(mapping.getScope()))
165request.setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute(), form);
166else
167session.setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute(), form);

/*
 *Notice line 165 and line 167, the mapping.getAttribute is getting
"registrationForm" from above in the struts-config.xml and storing the form
in the request by that name.
 * Now assuming that all goes well (the user filled in the form correctly),
then we go to our jsp.
 */

201 }
202 return (mapping.findForward("success"));
203

--
registration.jsp
--
// Here the current bean instance is set into the pageContext by the name
"subscription"

143
144  

/* Then, down here we try to create our link tag, html:link works fine for
most
 * cases, however, we need have a special case.
 * Personally, I use a custom tag every time I need to pass an id to another
action
 * This works great for me because most of my detail records are unique by
their id and not
 * by some compound key
 * Basically, it appends "id=n" where n is the id of the database record
 * that I am using/changing
 */

158  
159
160  

/* app is defined as a custom tld. linkSubscription is of type
 * org.apache.struts.webapp.example.LinkSubscriptionTag
 */


--
org.apache.struts.webapp.example.LinkSubscriptionTag
--
173 Subscription subscription = null;
174 try {
175 subscription = (Subscription) pageContext.findAttribute(name);
176} catch (ClassCastException e) {
177 subscription = null;
178 }

/*
 * Notice here that we attempt to get the form from the pageContext.
 * the variable called "name" is set to a default value of "subscription"
 * in this class.  You can have given it any name you like
 * by changing it in the logic:iterate or if you are *not* within an
iteration,

registration.jsp
 *

Struts and Torque commons-collection incompatibility

[Robert Morse]

The Struts 1.1 beta and the latest Torque use a different version of
commons-collection.jar.  You'll get a class not found exception for
StringStack if you use the version that comes with Struts.  I copied the
version that comes with Torque, and Struts seems to behave properly.

Multiple error pages for a single action mapping

[Schmidt, Carl]

I have a reset password section of the web site where the user must go
through a set of pages, verifying their information and then have their
password reset.  Each page submits to the same action mapping, and I have a
session bean that tracks answers to each of the questions on each page.  As
each page is validated though, all I can use is just one input tag in the
action mapping to return the user back to some central error page.  What I'd
like to do is return the user back to the page which contained the errors,
dispaying the errors at the top.  How do I do this?

Beans + Internationalization + Struts

[Juan Alvarado \(Struts List\)]

I am working on a site that is both in spanish and english.

Whenever tomcat starts up, I load into application scope a product list
class which contains an ArrayList of ProductBeans.  Since the user is going
to be presented with a choice of viewing the site in spanish or english, I
need to know if anyone has a clean way of displaying the correct ProductBean
properties in their respective locales. For example, I have a ProductBean
with two fields: descriptionEs and descriptionEn.

My solution was going to be to do a check in the JSP to see which locale the
user chose. Then I would use the struts logic tags to  pull out the correct
property from the bean for the correct locale

In my jsp I would have something like:

if( locale == es ){
productBean.getDescrtiptionEs();
}
of course the above would be changed to be used with the struts logic tags.

I don't particularly like this approach because it involves putting too much
logic into the JSPs. What I would like is to just call the
productBean.getDescription() method and have the correct value come back
according to what locale the user chose.

If anyone can give me any feedback or ideas I WOULD greatly appreciate it.

Hi,

Got a problem with uploading files to the server.

I don't get any errors but the files I try and upload are always empty

Code I'm using in the Action::perform() method looks like this



PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(

new BufferedWriter( new FileWriter("C:\\Demo.out") ) ); 
int i = in.read();
while (i != -1) {
pw.print((char) i);
i = in.read();
}

Demo.out is created but empty.

Managing session info - WAS: Where is it best to populate default form beancollections

[Kevin . Bedell]

Steve -

Some of this depends on your app server.

Depending on the app server you're using the SSB's may be stored in the
equivalent of a session context in the ejb container. I know that managing
failover among app servers gets more complex if the app servers have to
synch a great deal of SSB replication - different servers handle it
differently. In other words, you likely haven't reduced the overall memory
requirements.

And you've likely added overhead related to serializing and unserializing
the bean info as it moves between the sevlet and ejb containers.

My approach is this:

 - Don't run from ghosts. That is, don't refactor until you've actually
enountered a problem - unless there are good other reasons to refactor.
 - Memory is much cheaper than development time. Have them load the box as
high as possible before re-writing.

Another approach:

If you're concerned about carrying session related stuff in the user
session, store it in a database keyed by a Session ID. I've seen this done
successfully. You probably don't need all that information on every page -
so some of it can likely be stored in the database and pulled back when
needed (if ever). This can be done via a session object, a SSB or even an
entity bean (primary key = Session ID). I wouldn't write this unless I
actually ran into a performance problem - but I'd design to make sure it
was easy to implement if I needed to.



It might be useful to explore the creation of Struts "model" classes to
facilitate persisting of session information via a jdbc connection. Maybe
this could become a standard Model class that could be subclassed for
particular implementations.


FWIW -
Kevin

Subject:  RE: Where is it best to populate default form bean collections et
   c?


Guys,

A bit off-topic but opinions appreciated...

I've recently changed an app I'm working on to no longer hold forms on the
session but instead store them within a stateful session bean. Prior to
displaying any jsp I've then got dedicated action classes which retrieve
the
correct form from the ssb and place it into the request.

We decided to do this because the application is likely to result in a
large
amount of data being held through a user session. In addition the app is
multi-frame (I know - try telling the client it's a pain in the arse...). I
was under the impression that storing forms on the session would mean that
a
bloated session object would have to be sent to each frame within the
application (sometimes we have 8 or more on a page) and this would be
detrimental to performance. Basically I thought the idea was to avoid
placing too much data on the session if at all possible. I appreciate that
a
remote call to a ssb is not likely to be the most rapid access method but I
was concerned about running a multi-framed app with a large session object.

Can someone tell me if my opinion is correct or have I just changed a whole
shedload of classes, config files etc for no reason!

go on, make my day!

I generally use a "static initializer" (also called an anonymous block) for
this stuff.

For example state codes could be done in a static class called States.java


public static class States {

private HashMap statesMap;

public HashMap getStates() {
return this.statesMap
}

public void setStates(HashMap states)
   {
this.statesMap = states;
}

// Begin anonymous block for initialization
{
 this.setStates(this.initializeStates());
}

private HashMap .initializeStates() {

 HashMap states;

 // put code here to initialize the hashmap via jdbc, xml parsing,
whatever...

 return states;
}
}


Then the first time you reference the States class it is automatically
initialized. After the first time it is referenced, everything is cached.

Re: response has already been committed - question/solution?

[Klaus Thiele]

thanks Jon,

yes, this is a nice feature...
 "This can be used to integrate Struts with other business logic components that are 
implemented as servlets..."
 
but this is not which i need :(

another (undocumented?) feature is to use include="..." instead of type="..."
from struts-config_1_0.dtd:
 include Context-relative path of the servlet or JSP resource that
 will process this request, instead of instantiating and
 calling the Action class specified by "type".  Exactly one
 of "forward", "include", or "type" must be specified.

but i think the result it's the same as the IncludeAction

what i need is only not to rd.forward to the jsp-page after the action but
rd.include it.

i've already done some easiest patches to do this
  as an init-param for the ActionServlet for the whole Application
or as ActionForward.setRdinclude(true).

because i'm not a struts/servlet specialist i'd like to know if there are
any side-effects, breaking struts rule or what else, if i do this.
if not, it was very helpful for us if such a method was integrated in
the struts-release.

RE: Problem with property in ActionForm

[Remke Rutgers]

Hi Dante,

Thanks for the answer. The explanation is clear and the suggestion to refer
to the property on the jsp as "ACompanyId" works, but I think the check for
(upper/lower)case should not be on the first two letters, but on the
complete string.

Hi Jon!

I'm using tiles,struts,tomcat3.2.3+jboss2.4.1 on jdk1.3 on suse7.2. What 
I'm wanting to do is to be able to store user-specific jsp pages and 
reference them according to their position in the user hierarchy. Like this



/usr/registration/create/create.jsp
/usr/registration/create/anonymous/create.jsp
/usr/registration/create/loggedin/create.jsp
/usr/registration/create/supplier/create.jsp
/usr/registration/create/foodsupplier/create.jsp
/usr/registration/create/motorcarsupplier/create.jsp
/usr/registration/create/hammocksupplier/

So, if my user logs in and is authenticated as belonging to usergroup 
'foodsupplier', the group-specific page is selected. If there is no 
group-specific page defined, the parent group's page should be selected. 
If there is no parent group page defined then it's parent group page etc 
until (if there are no group specific jsp pages defined) a generic page 
(for that piece of use case) is selected.

To be honest I don't even know if declarative security is overkill for 
what I want but I thought it would be good to use for future development 
needs - i.e. making the system standard and extensible and reuseable and 
all that.

The template selection based on role I was hoping to implement using 
tiles but I first need to understand what for example a 'rolegroup' is 
and how it is /can be used to group users and then how do 'roles' and 
'principals' tie in to this?

I'm not sure whether form-based authentication is good enough for your 
average membership based web app due to the fact that username and 
password are apparantly shipped to and from the clients browser 
unencoded/unencrypted. We know that using ssl is slow so we reserve its 
use for sending credit card data which only happens from time to time as 
apposed to with every request.

Thoughts? (suggestions to alternative methods welcome)

Exception display (using Tiles)

[Karim D. Saloojee]

Hi

I have a question on how Tiles and Struts propogate exceptions. If for
instance, I have a an exception in my body jsp, unless I declare a JSP error
page in that body, my error page will not display.

Is there a way to declare a JSP error page in the layout and then have all
the pages which use that layout use the same JSP error page?

Could someone clarify this behaviour? I have a hunch on how it works but I
would like to be certain.

Thanks
Karim

RE: Caching IE revisited

[Adolfo Miguelez]

Cheers Todd,

it seems to work, so the problem looks like to be solved. However, I am 
still wondering, just for clarify my mind, if browser takes in account 
response HTTP headers or just ignore them.

AFAIK pragma info travels in the body of the HTTP response, within HTML 
content, as plain text, rather that in the HTTP headers. I am not sure that 
Websphere could be modyfing HTTP headers.

The fact that it works, does not clarify to me if server overrides HTTP 
headers.

Anyway, it works!!!

Adolfo.

Hi Klaus,

My mistake; I was just reading about the
org.apache.struts.actions.IncludeAction on this list. It looks like you can
have an action extend this instead of a standard Action. 

Would this help in your case; it does a RequestDispatcher.include().

RE: can't register struts-config dtd on tomcat 4.0.3 (1.4 LE) - Proxy problems?

[Alex Jones]

Are you behind a proxy? If so, you'll need to make sure that the JVM
knows about it before ActionServlet starts trying to read the DTD. One
way of doing this would be to subclass ActionServlet and override the
init method to something like this:

public class ProxyActionServlet extends ActionServlet
{
  public void init(ServletConfig config)
  {
System.setProperty ("http.proxyHost",proxyserver);
System.setProperty ("http.proxyPort",proxyport);

System.setProperty ("https.proxyHost",secureproxy);
System.setProperty ("https.proxyPort",secureproxyport);

System.setProperty ("http.proxyUserName",username);
System.setProperty ("http.proxyPassword",password);

super.init(config);
  }
}

(I've typed this from memory so it may not work if you just cut and
paste). Then you'll need to make sure your web.xml file points to your
new class.

Cheers,
Alex

Hi Jon,

thanks for responding.

you mean  "" in struts-config.xml?

this does an 'sendRedirect()', not a RequestDispatcher.include() and did not help.

thanks

Re: Where is it best to populate default form bean collections etc?

[Peter Pilgrim]

What I do is this. I take advantage of Java language, create a static final of a 
default primitive array
list

public final static String [] DEFAULT_STR_LIST = new String[0]

I can use that to initialise every form attribute that is a primitive string array.
This is useful for say `DefaultActionForm' base class, especially if you have
accessor and mutators that support multiple selection elements like checkbox, or 
multiple
selection list boxes

public String [] getSelectionItems() {  }

public void  setSelectionItems( String [] ) {  }


The same idea is can be used for Collections.

public final static ListDEFAULT_LIST = new ArrayList();

PS: But be careful if your List are not meant to be shared!

I fill up all the select elements from the database, so I query the database with SQL 
and
save the data using the accessor/mutators of nested business objects.

I also store the action form as `session' objects.

Now I have a question? Has any one implemented at `LeaseTimeContainer' that
effectively removes old `session' attributes from the HttpSession.

I have thinking of writing a super SessionLeaseTimeContainer that does this:

(1) Knows how to iterate through every httpsession in the wep app.
(2) Knows how to remove object from the HttpSession
that have the interface `LeaseTimeAttribute'

public interface LeaseTimeAttribute() {
  public void unlease( HttpSession session );
}

I have not done this, because we do not have say 1000's of users and 50 different
action forms. But I can see that this would be a problem for some big user sites?
How would you clean all those "Session" bean form objects that have not
been used for more 25 minutes or so? Assume the users stay log on the web app
for more than 30 minutes default.

Subject:Where is it best to populate default form bean collections etc?


The question I have is it ok to set up the default select lists inside the form bean 
by calls to some other business logic? For example...

private dogsArray = business.getDogsArray();

then your normal set and get method.

I tend to thin this probably isn't a good idea and it would be best to have some 
action class create the array and then call the appropriate form bean set method. I'm 
not sure though.

RE: Where is it best to populate default form bean collections et c?

[Steve Earl]

Guys, 

A bit off-topic but opinions appreciated...

I've recently changed an app I'm working on to no longer hold forms on the
session but instead store them within a stateful session bean. Prior to
displaying any jsp I've then got dedicated action classes which retrieve the
correct form from the ssb and place it into the request.

We decided to do this because the application is likely to result in a large
amount of data being held through a user session. In addition the app is
multi-frame (I know - try telling the client it's a pain in the arse...). I
was under the impression that storing forms on the session would mean that a
bloated session object would have to be sent to each frame within the
application (sometimes we have 8 or more on a page) and this would be
detrimental to performance. Basically I thought the idea was to avoid
placing too much data on the session if at all possible. I appreciate that a
remote call to a ssb is not likely to be the most rapid access method but I
was concerned about running a multi-framed app with a large session object.

Can someone tell me if my opinion is correct or have I just changed a whole
shedload of classes, config files etc for no reason!

go on, make my day!
steve

Yep - the init method of the servlet or static initializers are better.

I generally use a "static initializer" (also called an anonymous block) for
this stuff.

For example state codes could be done in a static class called States.java


public static class States {

private HashMap statesMap;

public HashMap getStates() {
return this.statesMap
}

public void setStates(HashMap states)
   {
this.statesMap = states;
}

// Begin anonymous block for initialization
{
 this.setStates(this.initializeStates());
}

private HashMap .initializeStates() {

 HashMap states;

 // put code here to initialize the hashmap via jdbc, xml parsing,
whatever...

 return states;
}
}


Then the first time you reference the States class it is automatically
initialized. After the first time it is referenced, everything is cached.

We did it using an init servlet, run when the app gets loaded and stay in

I'm curious about this too.  How are other developers initializing
application scope resources?

For example, maybe a list of cities or states.  Things that end up in
numerous forms that don't change often, but are large enough to be stored
in
the database.  These kind of things don't seem appropriate in a user's
session.

Thanks,
eric.

can't register struts-config dtd on tomcat 4.0.3 (1.4 LE)

[Mike Dewhirst]

Has anybody ever had this before? I am running struts on freebsd 4.4
(custom), jdk1.4 (linux), tomcat 4.0.3 (1.4 LE), and struts 1.0.2 (stable).

Does anybody have any idea what could be causing this and how could I fix
it?

if i do a manual fetch of

downloaded no problem.

Singleton vs ServletContext

[Damien VIEL]

Hi !!

My question is about the best way to implement a JDBC ConnectionPool for Struts.
I've heard that the one that is already in Struts is not a good choice. 
I've also read many mails about PoolMan. 
In Servlets & JSP book from Marty Hall, he speaks also about Singleton.

What's the easiest way ? 
Has anybody a simple sample ?

Thanks All.
