Re: Action takes long time to complete

[Andreas Langmann]

if the tasks result is not important for fulfilling the request
make a separate process, so the action method can finish before.

Manage Results obtained from ResultSets

[SANZ SANFRUCTUOSO, Manuel]

Has anybody used the ResultSupport class?

I'd like to call a JavaBean to give me back a JSTL Result objet to be able
to process it as if I would have had it from a  action. I don`t
know how to get this object in my JSP and manage it.

There are some articles that say something about it, but none of them give
examples.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks.

I think that you should use different errorpage depending on you have error on 
the tiles layout or a tile you want to insert into the layout. 

If an error occures in the layout itself the error page has to generate the 
whole  story however an error occuring in a tile should produce 
an error message in that very place, and let the layout to collect the other 
parts of the document.

Hi there,

Finally, I figured it out.
Actually the way is just not to use struts tag libraries. ;(
Get the ActionErrors and search the key.
if there's an object corresponding to the key, write FF
if no, write FF

thank you.

[ANNOUNCE] Tiles and Validator Support in ObjectAssembler 2.5

[Bill Willis]

ObjectAssembler 2.5 Pro is now available:

http://www.objectventure.com/objectassembler.html

New Struts features in this release:

 - Full support for Tiles definitions
 - Full support for Validator 1.0 configurations
 - Jump from any element in our visual editor to its associated XML
 - Two-way development. Changes made to XML are immediately reflected in
the visual editor and vice versa
 - Two additional component types: Struts Exception and Validator
(allows the implementation of Validator rules). For each of these
components that are created, their use is automated in the Struts,
Tiles, and Validator configuration editor
 - Updated all Struts support to the latest 1.1 builds.

ObjectAssembler doesn't just help you generate configuration files. It
is a component-based Struts development environment that assists you in
building both Struts components and configuration files. It also
automates the process of packaging them in a WAR and generating the WAR
itself.

ObjectAssembler is currently supported in Jbuilder, Netbeans, Sun ONE
Studio, and as a standalone IDE. We are working on the next supported
IDE (the most popular requests being IDEA and Eclipse).

I invite you to take ObjectAssembler for a spin. The User Manual, which
is provided with the installation, explains how to make use of
ObjectAssembler's Struts support. We also have some simple Struts
Viewlets available here if you aren't quite up to downloading yet:
http://www.objectventure.com/demos.html. If you have any
questions/problems/feedback, please contact me directly or join me here:
http://support.objectventure.net.

Thanks to all of you who have already done so and provided valuable
feedback!

Re: An example of dynabean !

I want to build dynamic HTML forms whose fields are dependent on the data

runtime in action/request processor or somewhere?

I used to do this by using a naming convention on control names (e.g fld_<%=

ActionForm framework that Struts provides. Has anybody accomplished this

RE: Why is this code (drawing a box) extremely slow with netscape-4.79?

[Andrew Hill]

This is because Netscape is crap.
Without butchering your code and making your IE & Mozilla users suffer for
the sake of a small bunch of Netscrap lusers who dont deserve such
consideration theres not much you can do.

[Struts Tip] #14 Use optional forwarding to extend Actions

[Ted Husted]

Many times you will find that two Actions are very similar but 
need one small behavior to change. One good way to handle this is 
to subclass one Action from the other and change the behavior that 
way. Though, in the case of an Action, the behavior may buried in 
the perform (or execute) method. It may also not really seem worth 
a hotspot method of its own.

Khalid, 

I am assuming by across the Atlantic you are referring to the United States.

Here in London, England it is really slow as well.
The needle is favours the employers right now rather than a typical
candidate. Unfortunately employers want 10 different criteria before
they call you up for interview plus another magic ability or so.
There aren't many people I think that going to fulfil an over-stringent
list of requirements.


The job market/outlook in the US for high tech/software/hardware is still
pretty poor.  There are some pockets where jobs can be found in the US, but
overall, our unemployment rate nationally is still sitting just under 7%,
with some harder hit local areas, such as Dallas, TX, sitting closer to 8%.
That doesn't sound high until you take into consideration before the high
tech job fallout in 2000, our unemployment rate was below 3%.



In England in the 1980's we reached 3 million unemployed, which is about 10%
from a population of 62 million with 30 million adults of employable age
working. The unemployment figure I think is much lower today, around 5%

I used to work for investment bank also in the city, and as you aware
a lot of the people who used to work for big banks are not or will not
claim any social security benefits. So the true figures are probably
higher especially in London.


Also, unless you are currently a green card holder or US citizen, you would
need to find an employer to sponsor you for an H1-B visa, which is the US
equivalent of a work permit.  It's not something you can obtain yourself,
you must have an employer who has agreed to hire you apply for you.  Right
now, few US employers are sponsoring H1-B visa applicants, due to both the
higher unemployment rate, and the legal requirements an employer is required
to comply with to demonstrate that no US citizen was qualified/available for
the position.  And that is not taking into account the heightened
sensitivity many companies have to bringing non-US citizens into the US
after the events of Sept 11, 2001. 

Ditto over here in this country. Except a lot of companies are doing
something nasty. There are relocating call centres to India, or bringest
India contractor over to England. I am sure people will have their
own view on this policy of saving exorbitant monies, but it remains
to seen if the number of professional developers is going down
in the long town. If the trend is the farm out software development
to third world countries then we are in trouble, some of us.

Another trend is wholesale outsourcing of IT division, I read today
www.efinancialnews.com that JP Morgan UK is out sourcing to
IBM Consulting UK and I think so is Deutsche Bank and Dresdner.



I guess things are pretty slow no matter where you reside now.  I understand
Japan's high tech area has also been hard hit, along with most of Europe.

Does it not work for *any* post, or does it just not work for multipart
posts? I would expect it not to work for multipart posts, because Struts
wraps the request, and that wrapper does not currently implement
getParameterMap(). However, if it doesn't work for posts at all, and in
particular doesn't work for url-encoded posts, then that would seem to be
a bug in Tomcat.

It should definitely work on a POST, but only if your request meets all
the requirements so that the body content will be parsed by *any* of the
getParameter family of methods.  Specifically:

* Request protocol is "http" or "https"

* HTTP method is "POST"

* Content type is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

If your request looks like that, and you still don't get the parameter
values, please file a bug against Tomcat -- ideally with a test case
attached.

RE: jsp:setProperty

[Wendy Cameron]

If Kris, is correct an getPropertyMap only works for the get method, then this seems 
to be a bit of problem as most form data comes via post.  And although I agree I think 
using the BeanUtils is more sensible than JspRuntimeLibray and can then be ported by 
simply copying to jars to other server or including them in the webapp. Hoever if it 
only works for get methods, then you still must write code to extract the parameters.  
This seems odd.

Where do you see *three* implementations?  I can count two (the one built
in to the JSP environment and the one that Struts uses
(commons-beanutils).  Where is the third one?



This interested me, because I am trying to write a simple example
framework using MVC architecture as training materials.  I want to be
able to avoid the complexities of struts and just demonstrate what MVC
is and how to build MVC architecture.




I'd stick with the commons-beanutils implementation (that Struts also
happens to use).  Not only is it already separate and reusable (and, in
fact, used by quite a few other projects), it is deliberately *not*
compatible with the (stupid, IMHO) way that  deals with
zero-length Strings -- JSP implementations basically ignore them.

You might want to look at how Struts actually uses BeanUtils.populate() to
copy request parameters into a form bean.  Specifically, look at the
processPopulate method of RequestProcessor (1.1) or ActionServlet (1.0).

If you are running in a Servlet 2.3 or later environment, it's basically
as simple as:

  Object formBean = ...;
  Map parameters = request.getParameterMap();
  BeanUtils.populate(formBean, parameters);


I did a couple of quick experiments with TC 4.1.14 and 
ServletRequest.getParameterMap only seemed to work with HTTP GET, not 
HTTP POST. Is your expectation that it *should* work with POST?


In a Servlet 2.2 world, the only additional thing is to build the map of
parameters by hand (since getParameterMap is not available).



Then the next phase in the course is to introduce Struts, by converting
the same problem or system over to struts.  Reinforcing the MVC
concepts, while introducing struts concepts and tablibs. (Is it possible
to get an evaluation copy of Struts in Action)

So I decided to use the JspRuntime.introspect(Object, request) despite
its platform specific nature, only work with Tomcat, because the
properties are fairly simple in nature.




Beyond locking you into Tomcat, you're also locked in to the JSP spec
interpretation of property population, which operates in some unexpected
manners.

Which CVS version of RequestUtils.java are you looking at (from the
$Revision$ line at the top)?

In both 1.0 and 1.1, it actually does call BeanUtils.populate(), down near
the bottom, to do the actual copying.  The extra complexity above that is
for handling file uploads and for grabbing the correct set of parameters
out of the request.

Re: Validation in Nightly Build 20021105

This looks similar, but different, to a bug I tracked down because of a
change in the FastHashMap implementation.

The fix was in ValidatorResources:
   public void process() {
  hFormSets.setFast(true);
  hConstants.setFast(true);
  hActions.setFast(true);

  processForms();
   }
setting the setFast() to setFast(false),


Here is a link to the original bug report.

My wesite has 8 pages and all the links are in the header, have all links go to

Well... the mechanism the tags use to display is the same as the mechanism 
the server uses to update, BeanUtils. So I'm guessing that it's the 
old "Struts can populate lists..." thing. Try it again while keeping the bean 
in the session scope. It "should" work.

To get it back out of session scope and into the request scope, you'll have 
to employ the technique of the LazyList stuff in the commons-collections 
project. Look for the LazyList docco in the 
org.apache.commons.collections.ListUtils class. This will allow you to wrap 
your ArrayList (without any real overhead), and allow it to grow 
automatically when all those indexed items come back in.


Arron.

1.1b2 - validate() form method gives blank screen when errors present

[Mark Leonard]

Greetings,

I am having a problem where a blank screen is presented instead of redirecting the 
user back to the "input" attribute if the validate() method returns errors.  If 
validate() finds no errors or if i set validate="false" for the action, processing is 
ok with successful redirection to the success page defined in my mapping.  The 
configuration for the action is shown below.

I have set up the "TestForm" to always add an error during my testing and the println 
shows that errors.size() is 1 on the console.  I am using tomcat 4.1.12 and there are 
no error messages appearing in the log files.

"error.dummy.testing" is defined in my properties file and errors are successfully 
displayed on another page in my app when the ActionErrors are set and saveErrors(...) 
is called in my Action subclass.

I'd appreciate any ideas as to what is going wrong with my configuration before i 
start nosing through the struts source code.

Thanks,

-Mark

TestForm snippet

public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping,
 HttpServletRequest request) {

ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, new ActionError("error.dummy.testing"));
System.out.println("actionerrors size, " + errors.size());

return errors;

Action takes long time to complete

[Alex_Kotchnev]

David, 

Well, does the content of the next page depend on the completion of the 
task ? If that is the case, probably the JavaScript page with some 
animation would probably be the solution. However, if it doesn't depend on 
it, I think that you could probably start a new thread to do the work and 
have the action forward to the next step. 

I am using something similar to what I mentioned above.. But my question 
is: if you have a longer job that you are processing (e.g. either in the 
Action or in a separate thread), if the user has to cancel the job, how 
can they do it... In other words, if they hit Esc, or hit the Stop button 
on the browser, that will let them go anywhere else they want, but the job 
on the server doesn't stop.. it keeps going...

RE: indexed properties and form help needed

[Andy Kriger]

According to the docs for DynaActionForm, you indicate a property is indexed
by putting [] after the type name. What I think is going on is that the
property is not initalized when the iterator tries to access it, thus the
'No collection found'. But I don't know how to set this up so it works
correctly. Since Struts seems to handle just about everything else, it'd
surprise me if you couldn't iterate over a dynamic form property in order to
setup inputs.

Note that I haven't compiled or run any of this.

I would first expect my loop to look more like this:


 
  
 
 
 
 
 


I would have accessors for "name", "number", "expMonth" and "expYear" in the
CreditCard class.

At that point, I scratch my head, because I don't know how to represent
indexed properties in DynaActionForms.  With a regular ActionForm, I would
have the following in my "registrationForm" bean:

public  CreditCard getCreditCard(int index) { return
(creditCards[index]); }
public  void  setCreditCard(int index, CreditCard creditCard) {
creditCard[index] = creditCard; }
public  CreditCard[] getCreditCards() { return (creditCards); }

RE: jsp:setProperty

[Wendy Cameron]

I have been looking into this a little more last night, I decideded
to look at the compiled jsp code when I user jsp:setProperty "*"

And discovered that in the Code was JspRuntime.introspect(Object, request)
Which is servlet code for jsp:setProperty "*", it now strikes me as odd
there seems to three seperate implementations of populating a bean through
introspect.  Each is independant (No package dependancy).  So this means the Jakarta 
apache project has 3 seperate implementations of introspect, possibly inconsistant, it 
also strikes me that every vendor has a different implementation of it.  It seems to 
me this is candidate area for standardisation and forming a part of JDK, at least 
maybe as an interface, as it seems to be something you would want to do in a stack of 
places, eg populating bean fields from the a record in a record set. 

This interested me, because I am trying to write a simple example framework using MVC 
architecture as training materials.  I want to be able to avoid the complexities of 
struts and just demonstrate what MVC is and how to build MVC architecture.

Then the next phase in the course is to introduce Struts, by converting the same 
problem or system over to struts.  Reinforcing the MVC concepts, while introducing 
struts concepts and tablibs. (Is it possible to get an evaluation copy of Struts in 
Action)

So I decided to use the JspRuntime.introspect(Object, request) despite its platform 
specific nature, only work with Tomcat, because the properties are fairly simple in 
nature.

Validation in Nightly Build 20021105

[Mike Wilcox]

Hi,

We recently upgraded from Struts 1.1b1 to the nightly build from 
20021105. After a couple of days, we realised that validation wasn't 
working because of a format change to setting the properties in 
struts-config.xml for the filenames.

Once we fixed this, validation *sometimes* didn't work.

The symptom is that in the output, where the  tag is 
placed (with only a formName attribute), we now render a whole bunch of 
Javascript - the static validation functions only, without the dynamic 
part, or any start or end tags to hide it.

Now, Browser A (Mozilla 1.1, linux) works on server X, Browser B (IE6 on 
winXP) fails. However, Browser A fails on server Y, yet Browser B works.

Checking the doStartTag() code showed me that these symptoms occur when 
the formName definition can't be found in the config data, utilising 
some locale info. Our logs show that the definition was found at 
startup, and this definition used to work in the older version of struts.

Seeing a recent problem with a french locale, we checked. Browser A is 
using the en_US locale, while Browser B uses en_GB. We then swapped the 
locales used by the browsers, and the failure swaps round too. On 
checking, server X is in locale en_US while server Y is in locale en_GB. 
So... the browser/server combination worked when locales matched, and 
failed otherwise.

We only have a single formset in the validation.xml, unqualified by 
country or language. However, if we do try to specify country or 
language, we get a NullPointerException in the commons-validator.

We have tried deploying the struts-validator example from the same 
nightly build. At least it's more consistent - it fails in each 
combination of browser & server.

Seems like a fault. Is this enough to help track it down? Anything else 
we can do?

Cheers,

   Mike

Jack,

I'm not an expert on this, but I am working with WebSphere 4.0.2 and 
Struts (mostly) fine. I don't have access to anything one would consider

administrative (i.e. Admin Console, etc.), but to get Struts and the 
Struts-example app working, I am not sure you need it. I believe all you

have to do is create a project in WebSphere to import the example into. 

In WebSphere:
1. Select File, new, Project, web project, ... to create a new project.
2. Select File, Import, War file, ... to put the .war file into your new

project.

I have imported a number of sample examples, as well have recently 
upgraded to the latest build of Struts for my development without any 
trouble, and without the use of Admin Console. As I said, I am not an 
Administrator, and perhaps there is in fact more that needs to be done 
that I don't know about, in which case I apologize in advance, but
thought 
I'd let you know of my experience anyway.

Hi Vicky,

I don't have an answer for your question but one of my own. I have just
started using WebSphere 4.0.x and want to use struts. I copy the
struts-example.war to the installableApps directory and then use the
Administrative Console to install it.  It says that it is installed and
started but I can't get the index.jsp to display in my browser. 

How are you installing struts?

Thanks,

Subject: Dynamic redirect to external URL
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2002 14:23:56 -0800

Is there a way to create a dynamic redirect to an external URL.

Something like the way I expected this to work:

public class MyAction extends Action {
  ...

 ActionForward fwd = new ActionForward("http://www.yahoo.com";, true);
 fwd.setContextRelative(false);
 return fwd;

  ...
}


The code in struts RequestProcessor ends up doing this:

String uri = RequestUtils.forwardURL(request, forward);
if (forward.getRedirect()) {
response.sendRedirect
(response.encodeRedirectURL(request.getContextPath() +
uri));
} else {
doForward(uri, request, response);
}


So context relative does not seem to be checked, and the url ends up being

http://myserver:myport/myapp/http://www.yahoo.com

Is there a standard way to do this?

Or should I just call something like response.setRedirect().

I know this question gets asked a lot but I've yet to see a comprehensive
coverage of how to make this work (the answers are always filling in the
blanks of a specific question). I'd be happy to start a tutorial on this
once I get my problem worked out.

I have a DynaActionForm collecting credit card info. A user can enter up to
3 credit cards on the form. I want to collect this info in the text fields
and create new CreditCard objects automatically; ideally, I would get a
CreditCard[3] once the form is submitted (optionally an ArrayList would be
fine). I would like to use indexed properties (right now I'm using hard
coded property names), but I cannot figure out how to set this up.

I am getting either a 'No collection found' error or a 'Cannot iterate over
collection' error (depending on how I mess with this).

What follows is rough code of what I'm trying to do.

A CreditCard object has 5 fields with get/set methods for each: type, name,
number, expMonth, expYear.

export in frames

[Chen, Dean (Zhun)]

Hi,
I have 2 frames. One submits a query to be displayed in the 2nd.
In the 2nd frame, there's a button to export. The export apparently works,
however, after the user exports, queries that the user submits no longer
appear on the screen. He/she has to refresh the browser to submit more
queries.

Currently the export works by running the query again, and then in the JSP,
issuing HttpServletResponse.setContentType("application/octet-stream") and
setHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=export.csv").

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dynamic redirect to external URL

[Brendan . Johnston]

Is there a way to create a dynamic redirect to an external URL.

Something like the way I expected this to work:

public class MyAction extends Action {
  ...

 ActionForward fwd = new ActionForward("http://www.yahoo.com";, true);
 fwd.setContextRelative(false);
 return fwd;

  ...
}


The code in struts RequestProcessor ends up doing this:

String uri = RequestUtils.forwardURL(request, forward);
if (forward.getRedirect()) {
response.sendRedirect
(response.encodeRedirectURL(request.getContextPath() +
uri));
} else {
doForward(uri, request, response);
}


So context relative does not seem to be checked, and the url ends up being

http://myserver:myport/myapp/http://www.yahoo.com

Is there a standard way to do this?

Or should I just call something like response.setRedirect().

RE: How to input

[Susan Bradeen]

Jack,

I'm not an expert on this, but I am working with WebSphere 4.0.2 and 
Struts (mostly) fine. I don't have access to anything one would consider 
administrative (i.e. Admin Console, etc.), but to get Struts and the 
Struts-example app working, I am not sure you need it. I believe all you 
have to do is create a project in WebSphere to import the example into. 

In WebSphere:
1. Select File, new, Project, web project, ... to create a new project.
2. Select File, Import, War file, ... to put the .war file into your new 
project.

I have imported a number of sample examples, as well have recently 
upgraded to the latest build of Struts for my development without any 
trouble, and without the use of Admin Console. As I said, I am not an 
Administrator, and perhaps there is in fact more that needs to be done 
that I don't know about, in which case I apologize in advance, but thought 
I'd let you know of my experience anyway.

Hi Vicky,

I don't have an answer for your question but one of my own. I have just
started using WebSphere 4.0.x and want to use struts. I copy the
struts-example.war to the installableApps directory and then use the
Administrative Console to install it.  It says that it is installed and
started but I can't get the index.jsp to display in my browser. 

How are you installing struts?

Thanks,

Jack

Re: Why is this code (drawing a box) extremely slow with netscape-4.79?

[Kevin . Bedell]

This is an issue in Netscape 4.x. It just renders nested tables slowly.
Another issue might be errors in the html - sometimes IE will blow through
mismatched tags with no issue while Netscape 4.x drags.

The latest Netscape - fortunately - doesn't seem to have these issues.

The only way to speed it up is to simplify the table structure and if
posible minimize the level of nesting.  Or making sure you don't have
mismatched tags or other html errors.

Instead of a table in a table in a table, can you get away with a table in
a table? :--)

Seeking multiple files upload action source

[Dan Tran]

Hi, I would like to write web page to upload multiples file to the server.
I think I known how to set upthe jsp and action form.  However, I have a
hard time accepting
the strutsupload action example from 1.1 distribution where it manualy read
binary data from the request


//write the file to the file specified

OutputStream bos = new FileOutputStream(theForm.getFilePath());

int bytesRead = 0;

byte[] buffer = new byte[8192];

while ((bytesRead = stream.read(buffer, 0, 8192)) != -1) {

bos.write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);

}

bos.close();

data = "The file has been written to \"" + theForm.getFilePath() + "\"";



Is there a better automation way?

Sorry if this question is trivial.

Re: jsp:setProperty

[Kris Schneider]

Wendy,

If you're already playing around with this stuff, this may be old news. Just 
thought I'd add a couple of bits for posterity:

ServletRequest.getParameterMap does not appear to work for post requests (it 
returns an empty Map), only get requests (at least with Tomcat 4.1.14).

RequestUtils.populate requires the bean to be an instance of 
org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm for post requests. In addition, it looks 
like it requires that post requests pass through the Struts servlet (otherwise 
it throws an NPE).

These types of problems have been fixed for Struts 1.1, using a new file
upload implementation. I would strongly recommend that you pick up 1.1-b2
or a later nightly build.

I think it's very unlikely that Struts is involved in this in any way.
Your action, remember, is what is sending the file to the client, not
Struts code. It's much more likely that your action has a problem, perhaps
related to using a writer which will transform the content, or specifying
an incorrect content type for the download.

Re: Re: user manually changing local

[Brian Hickey]

Marcus,

What datatype does getLocal() return?

I would likely write:

SetLocalForm myForm = (SetLocalForm)form

first and then:

String localString = myForm.getLocal();

or:

String localString = myForm.getLocal().toString();

It may not execute and differently, but it keeps the cast separate and
clear.

Maybe you should try some java IDE, as they would highlight the classes
not imported, mistyped, and support you with popups with the method
names.

RE: Re: user manually changing local

[Karr, David]

You have several problems, none of which have anything to do with
Struts.

First, your "SetLocalForm" class appears to be not defined.  I would
guess it's not in the same package as your "SetLocalAction" class.

Second, you can't do:

  String localString = (SetLocalForm)form.getLocal();

Because the "ActionForm" class does not have a "getLocal()" method.

Most likely, you would have something like this:

  SetLocalForm setLocalForm = (SetLocalForm) form;
  String localString = setLocalForm.getLocal();

Third, there is no "java.util.Local" class.  Are all of these "Local"s
supposed to be "Locale"s?  If so, you have several name changes you need
to make.

Is the SetLocalForm class visitble to SetLocalAction; is it in the same package or do 
you have the appropriate import statement?

Getting corrupted files using multipart and FormFile .

[Hugo Villeneuve]

 Hello,

I have some corrupted file problem with Struts, in upload and in download.

1- Upload :  I use the FormFile object and the  tag to import
file from the client browser. Things works just fine with almost every files
but I have hit some files ( like tiff and pdf) that get corrupted after the
upload. The files are the same size but the checksum is different (tiff
reader and Adobe can not read the files after upload). Why I say it is
struts and not Tomcat : I did a test in the same Struts Action but using a
packages form Oreilly to parse multipart request. The file gets uploaded
correctly using Oreilly stuff. Any comments will be welcome.


2- Dowload : I have a Struts Action that send files to the client browser.
Avery thing works just fine but “once in a while” the client will get a
corrupted PDF. We know the problem is not with the pdf but during the
transfer of the file. It could be Struts, Tomcat or Adobe (I know the
Acrobat Reader ActiveX is in charge of downloading the PDF on the client
side). Can Struts be the problem ?

Any discussion will be welcome.

My System:
- Win NT
- Tomcat 3.2
- Struts 1.0
- JDK 1.2

Thank you.
Hugo

RE: [OT] Where can I find a Struts / J2EE Jobs?

[Haseltine, Celeste]

Khalid, 

I am assuming by across the Atlantic you are referring to the United States.

The job market/outlook in the US for high tech/software/hardware is still
pretty poor.  There are some pockets where jobs can be found in the US, but
overall, our unemployment rate nationally is still sitting just under 7%,
with some harder hit local areas, such as Dallas, TX, sitting closer to 8%.
That doesn't sound high until you take into consideration before the high
tech job fallout in 2000, our unemployment rate was below 3%.

Also, unless you are currently a green card holder or US citizen, you would
need to find an employer to sponsor you for an H1-B visa, which is the US
equivalent of a work permit.  It's not something you can obtain yourself,
you must have an employer who has agreed to hire you apply for you.  Right
now, few US employers are sponsoring H1-B visa applicants, due to both the
higher unemployment rate, and the legal requirements an employer is required
to comply with to demonstrate that no US citizen was qualified/available for
the position.  And that is not taking into account the heightened
sensitivity many companies have to bringing non-US citizens into the US
after the events of Sept 11, 2001. 

I guess things are pretty slow no matter where you reside now.  I understand
Japan's high tech area has also been hard hit, along with most of Europe.

Re: Problem with using Vector?

[Brian Hickey]

Jana,

I think I see part of the problem. Here is some further info:



-- When you use type="com.ViewListingBean"... do you have a class named
ViewListingBean that has a 'package com' directive at the top? If so - good.
If not - that needs to be corrected.

-- The "id" in the usebean tag refers to the exact name of the bean your
action class placed into request/session scope.

-- The logic:iterate should look like..


-- Then you can use tags nested in the iterate as:



You are correct - JSP/Struts will not allow redefinition of beans with the
same name in the same page/template/tile.

Dynamic html:img parameters

[Alex Vollmer]

I know that this question has come up on the list
(http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-user@;jakarta.apache.org/msg33402.html), but I 
didn't see a very good answer for it.

What I want to do is build a template that has an image in it. The URL
for the image needs to be dynamically defined by another page. The
problem is that I can't figure out how to get both the context-sensitive
URL rewriting that the  tag uses with the attribute access
power of the 'tiles' tags. Any ideas?

Consider this brief (and contrived) example:


<%@ taglib prefix="tiles" uri="/WEB-INF/tiles.tld"%>
<%@ taglib prefix="html" uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld"%>

 <%-- What do I put here? --%>




<%@ taglib prefix="tiles" uri="/WEB-INF/tiles.tld"%>

Hello










I saw the follow-up
(http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-user@;jakarta.apache.org/msg33601.html) to the 
original posting suggesting doing something like:



The problem is that if I do this I've lost the URL re-writing power that I would 
get with the  tag. Is there a way that I can compute the context-sensitive
URL in the client page and pass that value as a template attribute?

Thanks in advance!

If performance is that much of an issue, I'd square up the use of the
lists. If it's all random acces (like accessing through the BeanUtils
system) then ArrayLists are sweet, but if your processing is running
through linearly then the LinkedList is the better bet. Just thought I'd
mention it.


As for the problem at hand... there's not all that much you can do
really. One option, if you know that the model is thread safe (like,
only one user will be on it at a time ie: request scope/everything but
application scope), then you can "fake" it by making a bean that turns
in on itself. By this I mean to make a bean that holds these
multi-dimensioned arrays and takes note of the indexes requested.
When the child array is sought after, return a reference to itself
noting the index. The child index will come in, do the same, store the
index and then return the same object. Throw in an extra stage (using
the nested:property tag to put in a "fake" level). We know that when
this is called it needs a real object, from which you can offer up the
multi-dimmed object.

eg:...


private int parentIndex;
private int childIndex;
private ArrayList myData;

public Object getParentList(int i) {
  this.parentIndex = i;
  return this;
}

public Object getChildList(int i) {
  this.childIndex = i;
  return this;
}

public Object getFakeProperty() {
  return ((ArrayList)myData.get(parentIndex)).get(childIndex);
}



...catch my drift?

I've done a fake properties like this, and they work sweet. I haven't
done it for two sequential lists, but the theory is sound. It's the fake
property brings it all back together telling the object that it has to
pull its finger out and actually fetch the object you're after.
The above will remove the overhead of all the object creation.

It has to be thread safe because if another thread gets in there
inbetween a thread reading the first index and the second, it'll all be
out of whack. If the list is build for a particular user, there
shouldn't be any issues.

...explanation fuzzy at all?...

outside of this, there's no option that comes to mind.
Note: if you want to access a property of the object of the first list
(the bean theoretically holding the other list), you'll have to make
another fake property to identify you want that object.

eg:

public Object getFirstLevelFake() {
  return (ArrayList)myData.get(parentIndex);
}


...outside of all the stuff spieled on above, ie: once you've broken
through that second list or have reference to the parent list object,
you can keep nesting as usual.

Hopefully I've said all that clear enough for you to move forward :)


Arron.

This says you have a bean named "ViewListingForm" that has some scope
(request/session) in your JSP. Also that you will refer to that items in the
property collection in "listingsSummary" by the scripting variable
"ViewListingBean". The property accesses the collection (List/Vector) you
want by calling the form getter for "listingsSummary".

To be thorough, you will need to include the "type" attribute to identify
the object type that will be found in the collection "listingsSummary". It
looks like type="java.util.Vector".

The getter will be called by the iterate tag for "listingsSummary" and you
have the case correct.

Always check the Javadoc (start at: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/ ). The
"id" attribute names the scripting variable you will use within the iterate
tag. In other words, each object contained in the Vector "listingsSummary"
will be referred to as "ViewListingBean".

So you can now use ViewListingBean to access the individual properties of
the objects in your listingsSummary. For example

RE: Problem with using Vector?

[Sri Sankaran]

Make sure that your action is persisting the form bean in the manner that it is 
expected on the calling page (this is defined by the action mapping).  

Pay close attention to the name under which you save it.  If your action mapping names 
the bean 'fooBean' and it is under request scope, you must have

  request.setAttribute("fooBean", listingform)

In your case, your JSP is referring to the form bean under the name 'viewListingForm'; 
make sure that this jives with config settings.

The id attribute has a reference to the current item in the iteration.  For more 
details on the logic:iterate please look at 
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/struts-logic.html#iterate

Sri

SSL and Struts

[Laurie Dickinson]

Dear All,

My first posting.  I'm having some difficulty using SSL with 
struts.  Here's some background (with dummy names):

Running tomcat4.1 integrated with apache on a Linux box
Regular server = tcs.xxx.com
Secure server = secure.xxx.com
These are the same server, just different names.
When I go to https://secure.xxx.com/appname/filename.jsp the secure 
connection works just fine.
When I go to https://secure.xxx.com/appname/actionname.do I get a 404 error.
When I go to http://secure.xxx.com/appname/actionname.do it works just 
fine.  (Alternately, http://tcs.xxx.com/appname/actionname.do works also.)

From what little I've read, ssl should work "transparently."  I'm not sure 
if I'm just doing something wrong or if this is a configuration error.

Thanks for any help.

Best,

No. This is due to the underlying JUnit design goal of having each test be
completely isolated. StrutsTestCase creates all mock objects from scratch
in the setUp() that is run from each test - this cannot be overriden in an
elegant way.

There were a couple messages on this yesterday. They addressed some ideas
for designing tests that invoke multiple Actions in a single test - search
the mail archives for strutstestcase using yesterday's date and you'll see
them.

Here's a link to an article on JUnit 'best practices'. In it, there is some

RE: How to input

[jzakarian]

Hi Vicky,

I don't have an answer for your question but one of my own. I have just
started using WebSphere 4.0.x and want to use struts. I copy the
struts-example.war to the installableApps directory and then use the
Administrative Console to install it.  It says that it is installed and
started but I can't get the index.jsp to display in my browser.  

How are you installing struts?

Thanks,

Jack

Problem with using Vector?

[Jana Navaneethan]

Hi,
   I have a Vector in my form bean which contains multiple Objects, I
want to loop through the contents of this Vector in my JSP page, I have a
getListingsSummary() method in my form bean which is viewListingForm, But
for some reason when I call my JSP it throws some exception like
No bean found under attribute key viewListingBean

Here is my iterate tag


Here is my form Bean

   public Vector getListingsSummary()
   {
  return(this.listingsSummary);
   }

public void setListingsSummary(Vector listingsSummary)
   {
  this.listingsSummary = listingsSummary;
   }


My Action class sets the form bean before forwarding to the JSP page..

ViewListingForm listingform = (ViewListingForm) form;
listingform.setListingsSummary(listingsSummary);


BTW what is this id means in the iterate tag? Any help would be greatly
appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
Jana.

StrutsTestCase & Struts Initialization

[Jon.Ridgway]

Hi All,

I now have my StrutsTestCase's running. But I want to decorate them using
JUnitPerf. The problem is that each time I invoke the StrutsTestCase
perforAction() method Struts appears to re-initialize. This overhead
detracts from the value of the load/stress tests performed by JUnitPerf.

Is it possible to tell StrutsTestCase to initialize Struts once only?

RE: Action takes long time to complete

[Trieu, Danny]

Have your action forward to a JSP page that in the end of the JSP it render
a JavaScript that will do the submit to the action that take long time to
finish.  Usually the JSP that render the javaScript will have some sort
flash images that the user look at while waiting for the action complete it
processing...

Help: validation and dyna beans, data disappears

[Drew Zimber]

All,

Hello.  Im currently working on a small application where I am researching
the use of the DynaBeans and XML Validation functionality within struts 1.1.
Both technologies are quite impressive and I have them working well with one
caveat;  allow me to explain via senario:


Right now, my test dyna form contains a few collections of static data (for
combo boxes) and a few fields.  One of the fields is set up for the
"required" and "integer" validations.

Everything appears to be configured properly and it on error it works as it
should, except for the fact that the form resets to the default values and
hence, the static data disappears.

Yes, I am aware that Collections are techinically not supported by dyna
beans.  Alternatively, I was putting the Collections directly into the
request as well, and logically they also disappear.


So:  I guess what im looking for advice/suggestions/takes on this delimna
before I revert back to traditional forms.  Thank you for your time!!!


Regards,
Drew Zimber

generates general javascript (functions for the generated code)

so you can generate in every page the dynamic code and the general code
only in one page.
(dont forget to include the general code - jsp-page into every page.

Re: Client-side Caching???

[eelco . klaver]

Hi Jon,

I implemented similar functionality with Struts 1.0.2 (i.e. without tiles).
For all tabs together, each containing their own html form fields, I used
one form object that was stored in the session. Furthermore, I created an
action to which the currently visible html form was posted when changing
tabs. This way, it is also possible to validate the input of the current
tab when switching tabs and if the validation doesn't succeed, refuse to
switch to the next tab. The action will furthermore only cause the form
fields in the session form object to be updated, without really applying
the changes (e.g. update to the database). Finally, one apply button, will
apply the changes on the form object at once.

The most important difference with your setup, is that changing tabs causes
the visible tab to be submitted to a ChangeTab action.

Regards, Eelco

  Please respond to "Jon

Hi Eelco,

I'm using tiles to create tabbed panes: | A | B  C | etc...

The user can select any pane to view other aspects of the application..
much
like you would do in swing.  SO the traversing IS inside the application.
Also I put an Apply button on each page then store the page state in a
session on the server.  So the following works flawlessly:

1)user edits A
2)user applies A (changes are viewed)
3)user selects the B tab - showing the B page
4)user selects the A tab - showing the changed A page.

But because nothing happens on the server without the apply.. the scenario
does Not work if you leave out step 2.

A software engineer wouldn't expect it too.. but a user would - especially
coming from using a GUI app.

The nature of the program requires as few clicks as possible.. and a lot of
information.. It's not really a workflow that I can see cause It's not
sequential..

The only way I can see solving this is to use JavaScript to capture edited
but un-applied form data behind the scenes.  Or reworking the application
in
someway to enforce the apply.

The former feels like an enhancement on the Struts form tags.. which I'm
willing to investigate if I'm not barking up the wrong tree!

Cheers,
Jon
