logic:empty and logicnotEmpty with a Collection (again)
Hi, I found some behaviour of the logic:notEmpty tag which I think is inconsistent. Reading the documentation, I think it should call a collection's isEmpty() method. It works as expected with a bean of type List, but it doesn't work with a Map. Testcase: If emptyList was built with List emptyList = new ArrayList(); the following fragment correctly states only emptyList empty: logic:empty name=emptyListemptyList empty/logic:emptybr logic:notEmpty name=emptyListemptyList not empty/logic:notEmptybr But if I change from emtpyList to Map emptyMap = new HashMap(); and test it with logic:empty name=emptyMapemptyMap empty/logic:emptybr logic:notEmpty name=emptyMapemptyMap not empty/logic:notEmptybr I get emptyMap not empty nonemptyMap not empty instead of just emptyMap empty. Both (mutually exclusive) statements seem to evaluate to true. So, is this a misunderstanding from my side or a bug in the implementation?

Thanks hue,
This shall be the route we will take i think, i had a play around with
rtf, and cutting and pasting the images sections into different
documents, and eveything worked fine. As you suggest though i need some
kind of way to do this on the fly? will have to look into this one.
Regular expressions make sense thanks, would this not be asier to do
with a velocity template in java? , i have never implemented one i am

Hi Andy,
The (MS) reference was because this was using the regular expression syntax
used by Microsoft's VBScript RegEx object and I'm not sure if this is the
correct format for java regular expressions. I think jakarta-oro is a reg ex
library that is included with struts - but sorry I have no experience with
this - although someone on this group almost certainly will - so might be
worth a separate post - but the example will serve as a good start point. It
basically means:
\[- string to match begins with [
([ is escaped because it's a delimiter)
\S- match any non-whitespace
[ - (delimiter)
^\[ - stop if you encounter another [
(to trap error with unclosed [] blocks)
] - (delimiter)
* - match any character
\]- ends with ]
(] is escaped because it's a delimiter)
Images would be a different problem - if you look at an RTF file then it is
quite straightforward to extract the image from the rtf - but each image
would need to be converted in this way or find some way of doing this
on-the-fly - but I'm not aware of any tool to do this! If you have a limited
number of images, e.g. logos etc. then it would be possible to insert the
converted one of these at the appropriate point. Images begin with something
like:
{\*\shppict{\pict{\ ... }} with loads of hex digits in-between.
If you have loads of images stored as say gifs or jpgs then you will need to
find some way of doing this on-the-fly to rtf format.
Hope the above helps a bit more.

Hi Andy,
I've looked through the thread and can't see specifically what you're
trying
to do but we had exactly the same problem and was solved using RTF, thus:
(this was for submission of documents to a UK government body that needed
to
be in MS Word .DOC format - they were able to open these documents with no
problem in Word: edit, print, save etc.).
We used RTF for the document - generated manually in MS Word and exported
to
a .RTF - and used placeholders to hold active data that was to be inserted
into the template of format [oTbl.Field] (allowable in RTF - and
replaced
these using (MS) reg ex of format \[\S[^\[]*\]).
This then gave us an RTF format document which was then saved with the
extension .DOC - which MS Word opens with no problem at all. This was in
fact sent to the browser by adding a header content-disposition of type
attachment; filename=WORD.DOC and also specifying the ContentType
of
application/rtf. Saving this document saves the document in Word .DOC
although it is really an RTF.
Not sure it's what you're after but after battling trying to open MS Word
on
the server - which needs administrator privileges for the user running the
web app (scary) or using vbscript/javascript in the browser (requires the
site to be added to IE Trusted Sites) - not ideal.
The solution outlined, using RTF is not dependent on the browser used and
the above solution is being used to generate around 200-300 (probably
more)
MS Word .DOC files a week which are emailed directly to the UK
government
body.
Let me know if this is an option for you - and if you need any more info
but
BTW the above was implemented in MS ASP so I can only send you some
ASP/VBScript code if that will help.

Re: Use of Bean Default Value in Struts
Use the value attribute of the html:select and assign it the required
value. But value attribute does not take the property of the form bean. It
takes the value explicitly specified. e.g hml:select value=A
If you specify hml:select value=val then it will search for the
string val in the options list.

Re: business logic question
Ted, Thanks for the explanation, worked like a champ...I am on my way to exorcising the business logic demons out of my DispatchAction classes! Dan McGowan Excellent question! The Scaffold solution is to use a ProcessResult object that encapsulates the typical things that the Model might want to send back to the Controller/View. So far, it can transfer data, a numeric code, messages, a dispatch instruction, along with a name and a scope. If the ProcessAction sees that the ProcessResult contains messages, it converts those to ActionMessages. If it sees it contains data, it expose that data under the given name and scope. And so forth. ProcessAction uses a very simple message format. It's just a list where the first entry is the template key and everything else is replacement parameters. Easy to build, but you can only send back one message. Now that we have a Message object in the Commons, I'm migrating a new version of ProcessResult/ProcessAction to use the Commons Messaging. But, the basic design pattern remains the same. HTH, Ted. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Tiles - multiple tiles submit

On the actionForm I have all String properties. The header properties as just String and the detail properties are String[]. Does each tile need its own html:form tag with the save action?

Re: Problems with Tiles and ControllerUrl
Hi,
I don't see what is wrong in your code. Maybe you can try to use
execute(...) instead of perform(...) which is deprecated. You can also
check if your method is properly called, and so if attribute are really
set (add a println in your method). If you still have problems, you can
send me directly a a jar or zip file with a simple example reproducing
the problem.

Hi,
I an trying to build a site using Tiles Struts (first time newbie)
and it seems I am unable to get the Tiles controller to override at
run-time the attribute values (e.g. page title)
I'm using Struts 1.0.2 and tilesForStruts1.0.jar. My tile-defs.xml
looks like:
tiles-definitions

put name=page.title value=Extreme/dark music webzine/
put name=content.title value=Corridor of Cells/
put name=content.body value=/

controllerUrl=/whatsnewController.do
put name=page.title value=TEST/
put name=content.title value=TEST/
put name=content.body value=TEST/ /definition
/tiles-definitions
The /whatsnewController.do controller action is defined in
struts-config.xml as:
action path=/whatsnewController
type=com.corridorofcells.action.WhatsNewController/action
and the actual com.corridorofcells.action.WhatsNewController class's
perform() looks like:
public final class WhatsNewController extends TilesAction {
public ActionForward perform(
ComponentContext context,
ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException {
context.putAttribute(page.title, Extreme/dark music
webzine);
context.putAttribute(content.title,What's New);
context.putAttribute(content.body, Hey, what's new);
return null;
}
}
However, at run-time, the values of page.title and content.title
are never overriden (in the template.jsp I fetch them using
tiles:getAsString name=page.title etc).
They're always left to the base value I defined in whatsNewTemplate,
i.e. the value TEST. They never seem to get updated at run-time with
the overriden values I put in the WhatsNewController class.
I've wasted 2 days on this and about to give up and just do
down-and-dirty JSP instead of clean and smooth Tiles...the docs say
this should work, but in my case such a basic example just doesn't work.
Help! What am I doing wrong here?

Re: Tiles, Modules, and Multiple Definition Files
Hi, All your explanations are absolutly right. Can I use them for a future faq ;-) ? The extends mechanism across modules will be improve in the next release. It has not been done in the current release due to the lack of time. Cedric Derek Richardson wrote: Since I heard nothing from the list, I did my own testing and am donating my findings to the archive: 4) Tiles works with modules. It has two modes: non-module-aware and module-aware: a) non-module-aware: all modules use the same tiles definition files, which are the ones specified in the struts-config for the default module, if there is a default module, or else following some other rule (I think it is first module listed in web.xml, but don't quote me without research to confirm). The tiles plugin must be present in each of the modules' struts-config. b) module-aware: each module has one or more tiles definition files which it uses. A module cannot see definitions in a tiles definition files used by other modules unless it uses that file itself. A module can see all the definition files configured for it and a definition in file B can extend a definition in file A if both are configured for the module in question. The one or more definition files used by a module are listed in the module's struts-config.xml file in the tile plugin section as comma-separated values for the property definitions-config. Struts 1.1 has no concept of supermodule/submodule relationships, so there is no way to inherit from other modules, not even from the default module. All definitions for a given module share a namespace. If both definition files A and B are referenced for the same module and both contain a definition for foo, the last file listed in struts-config wins. Derek Richardson -Original Message- From: Derek Richardson Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 7:52 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Tiles, Modules, and Multiple Definition Files I am using 1.1b3. I have a default module and several explicit modules (say A and B). The default module and the explicit modules all use tiles. I would like to access the default module's definitions in the explicit modules. So this is what I want: Module Accessable Definitions Default Default ADefault, A BDefault, B Furthermore, I would like the definitions for A and B to be able to extend the definitions for Default. From reading the archives, I understand that struts modules have no heirarchical structure. So there's no way to say that default is the supermodule and A and B are submodules and have the inheritance imply visibility. Thus the cleanest way of implementing what I want is not possible. The next cleanest is to declare multiple tiles definition files in the TilesPlugin in the struts-config of each module. As I understand it, this will make the definitions from all and only the declared files available within the module they are declared (assuming moduleAware=true). Which achieves my accessibility goals. My real question is: how are the namespaces handled with multiple tiles definition files? Are they all read and dumped into the same space, as if they had been in one file? Or is there some sort of partitioning? Can definitions from one tiles definition file extends definitions from another, assuming they are both loaded in the Plugin? What if there is a naming conflict - how is that resolved? The worst solution would be to have to cut-n-paste the default definitions into the subapp definition files. From what I've read, I don't think this is necessary. I have done some reading on this issue, but there does not seem to be a comprehensive treament of the issue in any one place. Not only would I appreciate knowing more about the details of this topic, but I think it would be a useful addition to the archives.

Re: tiles insert question...
Hi, In the early jsp specs, it is explicitly said that it is not possible to perform a flush inside a tag implementing BodyTag. Tiles perfrom a flush, and iterate is implemented as BodyTag. So this wasn't work. This should work in latest jsp spec, but I think that iterate should implement another tag type. To be checked. Personally I always use a java loop in a scriptlet to be backward compatible. I hope to stop this bad habit asap.

Does this means that to pass the error via mapping I must use controlerUrl

org.apache.struts.action.StrutsActionControllerWrapper? I cannot find it in
src of struts 1.1-b3.
It appears that StrutsActionControllerWrapper is now called
ActionController.
If you use a Struts action as Tiles controller CLASS, the struts
parameters aren't initialized, so you can't use it. I think you can't
pass error via mapping in this way.
But, if you use a struts action URL as controller, the action is
called throw the struts mechanism, and properly initialized. You can
extends the o.a.s.tiles.actions.TilesAction class and overload execute(
ComponentContext ...) to get the context.

Hi all,
I'm new to the list, so apologies if I say something silly.
Last night I found myself needing to take a bunch of query parameters from

for (;e.hasMoreElements;) {
String name = (String)e.nextElement();
%
tiles:put name=%= name %

(Let's assume for the moment that this is not a glaring security hole --
it is for an intranet app and the number of hostile incoming requests
should be neglible.)
This doesn't work with tiles as-is because the TLD has rtexpr=false for
the name attribute of the put tag. Is there a particular reason for this?
When I changed it to true, this worked fine. But now I'm wondering if I
may have opened up another bug someplace else.
The reason is that the eventuallity to feed the attributes in a jsp
loop like you propose haven't been considered ;-).
Thanks! I can go into more detail about why I needed to do this, but this
is my first post to the group and I decided that an autobiography wasn't
necessary right at this moment. ;)

Subject: about tiles context
Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2003 18:17:00 +0100
I have a question -- why is the context, which is different for every
Tile,
in the Request under the key CompContext instead of the key
org.apache.struts.taglib.CompContext, as it is in the source files,
according to the constants file ComponentConstants.java?
Thanks in advance for any help,

Re: Problems with Tiles and ControllerUrl

I tried adding a println(), but it didn't output anything to the screenI thought maybe that was normail in the sense Tiles maybe overrides any previous output before the template is actually created. This is not normal. It means that your action is not called, or simply your method is not called. Check carrefully the signature of your method and compare it to the requested one. I kow perform() is deprecated (Eclipse shows that loud and clear), but I am using Struts 1.0.2...isn't perform() the proper function to call in that particular version? Yes, you are right. Also, I tried calling the same class using ControllerClass instead of ControllerUrl and Tomcat would always crap out with an exception like unable to create controller class. I will try the execute() option and let you know, thanks.

I need access to the configuration as Struts sees it.
I have a problem which arose when I merged several webapplications into a single ROOT.war, namely that I get the dreaded javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Cannot find ActionMappings or ActionFormBeans collection when I deploy the EAR file containing the above WAR to JBoss 3.0.6. My problem is that this code works fine when developing with Resin directly in the source code, so I cannot replicate this outside JBoss. Both struts-config.xml and web.xml validate. I have now spent some time with the Eclipse debugger to see if I could get answers to the following questions: * Is the file read at all? * Where can I push a button to make Struts dumps its configuration? * Is the /find-recipients-for-donor correctly configured with the 1.1b3 struts (it was created for 1.0.2). referenced by the following snippet in search/enter-donor-data.jsp (which before the merge was in a seperate WAR, named /enter-donor-data.jsp): titleOrgan search/title html:form action=/find-recipients-for-donor table bborder=0trtd valign=top ... I would appreciate pointers - my next step would be to get a build-environment for Struts established, and modify code.

RE: question about logging
Struts itself uses commons logging. So you can simply include the necessary jars from commons logging and say, log4j/jdk1.4 in conjunction with the respective properties files in your classpath to control how the messages are output. You can learn a lot more about it at http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/index.html. Of course, you can use the same technique to control and configure log messages generated by your application.

RE: Proper place/tier for retrieving DDLB Values
Joshua, There are many ways to accomplish your goal. To answer your question, the DAO is typically the object that encapsulates the persistance and query logic and therefore would perform the query using the key passed in from the domain object. As far as returning results, you have a couple options: - Return a collection of DataTransportObjects (DTO) where each DTO represents a record in the result set. - Return a collection of DynaBeans (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/api/index.html) whose creation can be facilitated by RowSetDynaClass (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/api/index.html) - Return a CachedRowSet http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/Books/JDBCTutorial/chapter5.html - I think Craig is working on a way to make RowSetDynaClass detachable. That is, so you can use it AFTER closing and releasing the ResultSet but I'm not sure if its ready for primetime yet. You should be able to use any of the Struts, Struts-EL, or JSTL tags to iterate over and render the contents of the returned results.

TilesAction
Hello David Graham. You are absolutely correct, I have as the application base
Artimus from the Struts in Action book by Ted Husted which was made with
Struts 1.1b2. I grabbed the application struts-blank from struts 1.1b3 and
substituted the directory WEB-INF/lib, and now it works!
But I had another question -- I have an Action associated with a Tile. The
Action executes correctly and extends the TilesAction but the parameters
don't appear in the context of the Tile ... Any suggestions? The code for
the execute method is as follows:
public ActionForward execute(
ComponentContext context,
ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {
DateFormat df = DateFormat.getDateInstance (DateFormat.SHORT,
getLocale(request));
context.putAttribute(date, df.format(new Date()));
//request.setAttribute(date, df.format(new Date()));
context.putAttribute(try, tryContext);
if (log.isInfoEnabled()) {
log.info(ferran date: + df.format(new Date()));
log.info(ferran prova: + (String)context.getAttribute(prova));
}
return null;

Re: Sell me on tiles
The major selling point of tiles is that you can encapsulate, and reuse, page layouts, much as you can reuse layout managers in classic UI frameworks such as Struts. Beyond that, tiles have many other features that will save you a great deal of time and effort, such as extending an existing tile to create a new one. david Southard, Don wrote: We are starting a fairly new project using struts.

RE: Sell me on tiles
I appreciate you've had lots of replies already - but tiles was the killer feature for us in selecting struts. Please don't misunderstand that struts isn't great anyway - we love it - but the addition of tiles has made developing complex websites a breeze. There is a very outdated first-cut of one of our production sites at: http://www.mortgagesurgery.com/ ... the full production version will be released very soon. This was developed entirely using tiles and would have taken much, much longer without tiles. It's using tiles everywhere - mainly using definitions from tiles-defs.xml. The main menu is a header/body/footer tile with a niceBoxGreen tile inserted that has a further body content - and each menu bar option is a tile - so the hover/onclick code was only written once and then used by inserting 6 tiles with different parameters. The tabbed-frame on the first option was also created using tiles - this would have been a nightmare without tiles - trust me this was first developed in ASP and ASP.NET until I discarded both and looked for something better - and it now uses the very wonderful struts. Also see: http://www.openaction.co.uk/jserv/ ... ok it's just a pretty naff holding page but tiles allowed this to be created in 1 hour. It has a tiles header/body/footer outer definition. A further niceBoxBlue is inserted in the bodyContent that gives the Coming Soon! box and this has a titleString property for the header and a further bodyContent that contains the page with the text. This wouldn't even be possible to do without really inelegant code and jsp includes. I'm not saying these are great examples of what tiles can do - Cedric has some superb portal and other configurable options that really show the power of tiles. My personal view is (and I'm sure someone will disagree!) - with tiles available and so well-integrated into struts - you'd be really missing-out by not using it - even for the simplest of sites. There are loads of examples on tiles - I found Wellie Chao's article (referenced in tiles resources) at the IBM site really helped me learn tiles initially and also has a great justification for using tiles: http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-strutstiles.html?loc=j Hue. -Original Message- From: Southard, Don [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 18 February 2003 16:34 To: Struts User Group (E-mail) Subject: Sell me on tiles We are starting a fairly new project using struts.

Subject: Fw: TilesAction and Controller
Question: Just check to make sure that the controllerClass (NOT
controllerUrl) used in tiles:insert tag can extends TilesAction (and
NOT
implements Controller)?
Using TilesAction as a controller, I can pass the generated error to
the
input page via standard Struts process:
if (!errors.empty()) {
saveErrors(request, errors);
return (new ActionForward(mapping.getInput();
}
Question: How can I achieve the same thing with Tiles Controller?
(assuming
that I can have currentURL and RequestURL as Tiles attributes in the
request
scope).

RE: TilesAction and Controller
For Struts 1.1b3 and the soon to be released Struts 1.1 RC1, do you
recommend using TilesAction over the Controller interface
(http://tinyurl.com/62px) for tiles-specific controllers? I just wrote
about using the Controller interface for a Wrox Chapter last night, and I'd
hate to be out of date ;-)
Thanks,

Does this means that to pass the error via mapping I must use

It appears that StrutsActionControllerWrapper is now called
ActionController.
If you use a Struts action as Tiles controller CLASS, the struts
parameters aren't initialized, so you can't use it. I think
you can't
pass error via mapping in this way.

PropertyEditor
Hi, I have used a html:textarea to get some informations and so I have a String with several lines. When I put that String in a bean:write the presentation is different. I have seen in the Struts help that if there is a PropertyEditor configured for the property value's class, the getAsText() method will be called. Otherwise, the usual toString() conversions will be applied. The problem is I do not know how to configure that PropertyEditor, is someone can help me please ? I hope I was clear.

JOX Parser Conflicts with Struts Application
Hi, everybody, I was wondering if any1 has used the JOX parser from www.wutka.com/jox with a struts application, and if there were any conflicts. I am trying to call the JOX from a bean and in my browser getting an 500-exception, the debug shows that a Jasper Exception is thrown, which does not tell me much since thats the generic JSP engine (Tomcat) exception. My thinking is that it conflicts in some way with the way the beans are loaded with struts(not sure if that makes any sence, been using struts for a total of one week so far :)). I was going to use the digester to parse my xml and populate beans, but my understanding is that it uses xPath and i am not sure if i would like to implement it because of its slowdown...BTW, i am open to any suggestion on other ways to parse xml using SAX, so please feel free to give ideas.

Why do we need the input property of action in the struts-config.xml file
Looking at the struts-config.xml from the struts-example app: !-- Save user registration -- actionpath=/saveRegistration type=org.apache.struts.webapp.example.SaveRegistrationAction name=registrationForm scope=request input=registration/ I'm confused about the input parameter. Why do we need to specify the input? Doesn't the Action know which page the user came from? The reason I ask is because this ties the Action to a specific page, which prevents reuse. Let's say I have an action that I want to be used by multiple JSP's, and inside the action if there's an error it should return to the previous page. Is there an easy way to use the same action twice? Thanks, Michael - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Application Flow with Transaction Tokens?
Hi All, I have implemented a solution that I like to handle a TimeConsumingRequest(TCR). I have build a Thread that performs the TCR. This thread also provides methods to retrieve the status of the process and the result bean of the process. //Returns true while the TCR is processing false when done public boolean isProcessing(); //Returns true when processing is completed public boolean isComplete() //When the TCR is done I need the result information to display public Result getResult(); My action builds the thread and launches it. I then bind the thread to the session and I forward my user to the result page. Requests that come in to my action that contain invalid tokens are just directed to the result.jsp. This way my user is not stuck on their input form while waiting for the result which is sure to cause a second submit and is not user friendly. My result.jsp checks to see if the thread is still processing if so it displays a please wait prompt and sets the pages header to refresh in Xsec else it gets the Thread.Result and displays to the user. This solution involves a scriplet that performs response.setHeader(Refresh, 10). I dislike scriplets so I am building a custom tag to handle my TCR. It will look like this: !--What to display while the transaction is processing name: name of the Thread bound to the session property: method that returns a boolean value indicatingstate pollingInterval:The refresh interval set in the pages headermax:Max number of polls. If isProcessing returns true tag sets response.setHeader(Refresh, 10); and a counter in the session for the max count to avoid endless polling. -- tcr:isProcessing name=transactionWorker property=isProcessing pollingInterval=10 max=3 Please wait, your request is being processed. /tcr:isProcessing !-- What to display when the trasaction is complete -- tcr:isComplete name=transactionWorker property=isComplete bean:write name=transactionWorker property=result.authCode scope=session/ /tcr:isComplete What do you all think about this?

Decision was based on struts reducing the development time AND maintenance overhead this would entail in the future. Struts was a CLEAR winner. Once this site is in full production use in a few weeks time there will also be a section added on the website about the technology used and acknowledging the use of the struts framework. A separate section will also be referenced on the development website giving the technical justification for why struts was chosen as the framework.

Re: Why do we need the input property of action in the struts-config.xmlfile
Is that because your action is started by saveRegistration.do and the validation is done by registration.jsp? You don't have the '.jsp' in the input. What happens then? Does the action actually know which form triggered it? the (in your case) SaveRegistrationAction program is started after registrationForm program. This is all handled by the Controller. But how does the Controller tell the saveRegistrationAction that it was triggered by registration.jsp? If you don't know either, maybe that's the answer.

Re: TilesAction and Controller
Hi,
If you don't need the struts properties, use a Controller class and
controllerClass.
If you need the struts preprocessing or the struts properties in your
controller, use a TilesAction and controllerUrl.
A TilesAction is a regular Struts action which can be called through
the servlet mechanism, and so can be catch and preprocessed by Struts.
In addition, a TilesAction should be declare in the struts config file,
and called throw its URL.

Re: TilesAction and Controller
Initially I thought we can use Controller interface to save an extra
specification in config.xml and to be more flexible in our design of class
structure. We use TilesAction as the main 1 controller 1 action and in
nested pages where there is a need of 1 controller - multiple views. We
change all of our controllers to TilesAction. It seems to be
confirmed by Cedric comment. Let me know if I miss something.

I prefer the getInput method when doing validation, although under most circumstances the RequestProcessor will do that for you. If you are doing input validation in the action class, then you should probably use the getInput method. If not, you need the input forward to work anyways if validation fails (which it doesn't appear that you are validating for this mapping) when the RequestProcessor does its thing.

Initially I thought we can use Controller interface to save an extra

change all of our controllers to TilesAction. It seems to be
confirmed by Cedric comment. Let me know if I miss something.

Hi,
If you don't need the struts properties, use a Controller
class and
controllerClass.
If you need the struts preprocessing or the struts
properties in your
controller, use a TilesAction and controllerUrl.
A TilesAction is a regular Struts action which can be
called through
the servlet mechanism, and so can be catch and preprocessed
by Struts.
In addition, a TilesAction should be declare in the struts
config file,
and called throw its URL.

RE: return (mapping.getInputForward()); - not working
John, Yes. I prefer to do one validation in ActionClass and if the validation fails, 'am constructing ActionErros. Then, 'am saving it and using the input forward. I even tried using the / as I do for failure forward. But it doesnt seem to work. Thats the reason, why I have to make a failure forward and have an extra line in struts-config.xml to direct the page back to the data entry page. Though it works, I wonder is this the right way to do that? Or, why is input forward doesnt work? Iam happy that atelast I have a work around. But, in one of the screens I have the same problem where I let request processor to take care of the flow by defining my validations in ActionForm's validate method. It didnt seem to work. This is the action mapping for the other screen where requestprocessor fails to make an input forward when my ActionForm's validate method returns an ActionError. actionpath=/changePrm type=com.g1.interactive.webapp.ChangePrmAction name=ChangePrmForm scope=session input=changePrmDocument.jsp // i tried with / too /action Iam sure(by seeing the logs) ChangePrmForm is returning the ActionErrors object. But, the control(which ReqProc. should do) is NOT going back my input page. Instead, it takes me to a blank page.

handling form errors in Actions, returning to form, prepopulating them without re-POSTING
Hello, We are starting to use Struts and are wondering how Struts users handle scenarios such as this one: 1. /ShowForm action gets called, mapped to ShowFormAction. ShowFormAction pulls a list of countries from the DB (for ex.), stick that list in the HTTP request, and 'forwards' to 'ok', which is a JSP with a form that consists of blank form fields and a pull-down with countries that it gets from the HTTP req. 2. A user fills the form, but forgets a required field before he submits the form by POSTing to /SubmitForm action. 3. /SubmitForm is mapped to SubmitFormAction which detects a missing required field. Is puts error messages in an instance of ActionErrors. It now needs to forward to something other than 'ok'. What we want to happen at this point is: A. Get the user back the input form B. Display the error message C. Make sure that all possible fields are pre-populated with data that the user already entered D. The pull-down in the form has that same list of countries E. The user is not prompted with 'Do you want to re-POST' dialog How can this be done? In our Struts config we have: !-- gets a list of countries from DB, puts them in Request, forwards to 'ok' -- action path= /ShowForm type= net.wgen.ampng.action.ShowFormAction scope= request forward name= ok path=/WEB-INF/v/form-ok.jsp/ forward name= failure path=/WEB-INF/v/form-not.jsp/ /action !-- gets form data and processes it -- action path= /SubmitForm type= net.wgen.ampng.action.SubmitFormAction scope= request validate= true name= myForm input= /WEB-INF/v/form.jsp forward name= ok path=/WEB-INF/v/ok.jsp/ forward name= failure path=/WEB-INF/v/form.jsp/ /action What is the best way to handle this and achieve A, B, C, D, and E that I mentioned above? If SubmitFormAction encounters an error (e.g. a missing required field), what should it forward to? The original JSP in 'input' attribute? The JSP mapped to 'failure' (the same JSP with the original form)? Should it forward/chain to another Action that redirects back to the original form? (but that would lose the form data + error messages in the Request, wouldn't it?) Something else? Does the JSP with the form need to contain the logic for pulling errors + form data from the request, if it exists? This seems like a situation that would be very common and I feel that Struts has some elegant way for handling this.
