It's ok if you have a business object has a Timestamp field, but your
form bean's should be all Strings for display purposes. So before you
populate startDate into your bean you should make sure you
declare startDate as a String and convert the Timstamp version to this
String startDate before you use .

Results in multiple pages

[Konstantina Stamopoulou]

Hello,
I have the following problem and I'm not sure how I can solve it.
The resultset returned from a query I'm making to the database has many records. What 
I want to do is to display each time 10 of these records in my page.
How can i do this? I have searched the archive but I couldn't find anything similar. 
Any ideas or redirections to places where I could find a solution?

Thank you in advance.

Re: re:combining two form bean in one form

[Samit Goyal]

BlankI think that's not possible. you'll have to define an action for calling that 
JSP. and eah action can have only form bean associated to that. and that bean only 
will be available to your JSP. 


so only one bean can be made available to the JSP by struts!

Please correct me if i m wrong!

How do I include one file in another?

HTML itself offers no way to seamlessly incorporate the content of one file into 
another. 

True dynamic inclusion of one HTML document (even in a different "charset") into 
another is offered by the OBJECT element, but due to shortcomings of browser versions 
in current use, it seems unwise to rely on this yet for essential content. The same 
can be said for IFRAME. 

Two popular ways of including the contents of one file seamlessly into another for 
the WWW are preprocessing and server-side inclusion. A preprocessor converts its 
source into a plain HTML document that you publish on your server. In contrast, 
documents that use server-side inclusion are processed every time the document is 
retrieved from the server. 

Preprocessing techniques include the C preprocessor and other generic text 
manipulation methods, and several HTML-specific processors. There is a nice annotated 
list of HTML preprocessors at . 

Beware of making your "source code" non-portable. Also, the HTML can only be 
validated after preprocessing, so the typical cycle "Edit, Check, Upload" becomes 
"Edit, Preprocess, Check, Upload" (here, "Check" includes whatever steps you use to 
preview your pages: validation, linting, management walk-through etc.; and "upload" 
means whatever you do to finally publish your new pages to the web server). 

A much more powerful and versatile preprocessing technique is to use an SGML 
processor (such as the SP package) to generate your HTML; this can be self-validating. 

Examples of server-side inclusion are Server Side Includes (SSI, supported by 
Apache, NCSA, and other web servers), and Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP, 
supported by MS IIS). Processing occurs at the time the documents are actually 
retrieved. A typical inclusion looks like 



However, be sure to consult your own server's documentation, as the details vary 
somewhat between implementations. The whole directive gets replaced by the contents of 
the specified file. 

Using server-side inclusion (a potentially powerful tool) merely as a way to 
insert static files such as standard header/footers has implications for perceived 
access speed and for server load, and is better avoided on heavily loaded servers. If 
you use it in this way, consider making the result cacheable (e.g., via "XBitHack 
full" on Apache; setting properties of the "Response" object in ASP). Details are 
beyond the scope of this FAQ but you may find this useful: 
http://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/

Proper HTML validation of server-side inclusion is only possible after server-side 
processing is done (e.g. by using an on-line validator that retrieves the document 
from the server). 

Another approach is to create a database-backed site, as described in "Philip and 
Alex's Guide to Web Publishing" at . A 
simple change to the database template instantly changes the whole site. 

Finally, note that if the included file contains arbitrary plain text, then some 
provision must be made to convert the characters "&" and "<" (in the plain text file) 
to the entities "&" and "<" (in the HTML document).

There are some great examples in the book Struts Kick Start using

deploy with ant, best practices

[Dan Allen]

I have been studying ant very thoroughly over the past two days, and
I completely understand the file from top to bottom, including how
to reload the application using the  tag imported from
org.apache.catalina.ant.ReloadTask.  However, I am stuck on an
issue.

Assuming that I follow the techniques from the book Struts Kick
Start, I create a development tree such as

${app.home}
/build
/deploy
/object
/src
/lib
/web
/WEB-INF
/META-INF

then the actual target tree (under tomcat/webapps) is the typical

${app.name}.war
${app.name}
/WEB-INF
/WEB-INF/lib
/WEB-INF/classes
/META-INF

Okay, now stay with me here.  Assume that I currently have the
application running under tomcat.  If I build the .war file from the
build/ directory and place it into ${app.home}/deploy, then copy
it to ${app.name}.war under tomcat/webapps, it isn't going to
automatically expand over the current running tree.  It just sits
there until I kick tomcat (restart it) after deleting the running
application directory.

So what I did instead was I made the build/ directory the actual
running application directory so it just copied over the "live"
files directly as they were updated by javac.  Then a simple
"reload" would cause the application to start using the updated
files.

The question on the table is as follows.  How do you get tomcat to
expand an updated .war file over a currently running application
before you reload it?  It seems wrong to have the "live" application
the target of my build process.

The goal here is to update the running application without having to
restart tomcat and without having to use the running application as
the target of the build process.  I want to be able to copy the
updated .war file into the tomcat/webapps folder and have it expand
it over the running application files.  Is this unreasonable to
expect this?  How does everyone else do it.  Surely you are not
restarting tomcat all day.

handling array using jstl or struts

[shashi_struts]

Hi
I am working on a form in which some default value must be set over the form.

I have a bean in which a array value 
abc{"OR","AND"}; and his index value { "O","A"}
and a default value "O".

In the form i want to set this in the 
in this form

OR
AND

I tried and getting the result using scriptlets.

this is the code i am using


   
 
 
 "  selected> 
 <%=searchValue.getConditionsValue(index.intValue())%>
 
 
 "  > 
 <%=searchValue.getConditionsValue(index.intValue())%>
 
  
 

Is any way this using pure struts implementation or using jstl

I thought because Struts uses BeanUtils that it would have been able to
figure this out for you byusing




You cant do this:

 

because struts treats whatever is in the value parameter as a literal, and
does not perform a lookup.

Because the TextTag uses RequestUtils.Lookup method to lookup the "property"
which in turn, uses the very nifty BeanUtils from commons to find the value
from our array based form property.

Now, BeanUtils offers us some cool functionality:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/api/org/apache/commons/beanutils
/PropertyUtils.html

"Indexed (name[index]) - The underlying property value is assumed to be an
array, or this JavaBean is assumed to have indexed property getter and
setter methods. The appropriate (zero-relative) entry in the array is
selected. List objects are now also supported for read/write. You simply
need to define a getter that returns the List "

Jacob Writes:
You might want to look at WSDL to handle business logic.  Struts acts as
a presentation controller, the things you are describing can be retained
in your business logic layer.  That's not to say that you can't chain
Actions or even look at DispatchActions to complete your specified
tasks.

For me, when handling business logic like this, I go with extremely fine
granularity (no dispatch actions, I think they are bad news and you can
use abstraction and the template method pattern to essentially
accomplish the same thing).

"For every action, there is an equal reaction-- or a few of them in a
chain using the visitor pattern" or something like that.

Going back to your requirements of handling different types of Contacts:

Let's say we have a ContactActionForm object.  I'm assuming the Contact
information will change for each type of Contact.  Then create an
ActionForm for each type that extends ContactActionForm.  For each form,
bind them to a name in your struts-config.  Another possibility is to do
a single "Concrete" or "Flat" ActionForm that has all possible
attributes for every Contact.  Then you can bind that single ActionForm
type under multiple names.  The reason you want to have multiple
bindings, even though they are the same ActionForm is so you can
leverage the Validator libraries which act on a bind name basis (same
ActionForm, different rules for each bind).

For your Actions, lets say you are wanting to save these Contacts.
Again, just like you did for the ActionForm, create something that is
extensible and leverage the template method pattern so you can outline a
path of logic and have each Contact be handled differently.  Again, bind
each SaveAction to a different name.

I think Struts is extremely flexible, just don't depend on it to handle
your business logic, but only as a presentation/transport layer for your
REAL business objects/services.

I have a Contact form.  I want to be able to reuse this contact form,

What do you mean "read a date from the jsp" and what exception is it

the page?

1.1rc1 Error: Path index.jsp does not start with a "/" character

[Affan Qureshi]

I have been using Struts 1.1b2 and tiles in my application and have defined
forwards like:



where forward paths were JSP pages,  whithout the starting "/" for paths and
it worked ok. But this does not work when I installed Strut 1.1rc1 coz it
gave the exception:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Path index.jsp?selected=1 does not start
with a "/" character

Have I been doing it wrong until now? Is this a TilesRequestProcessor issue?
I had done so, so that I can deploy my app under any context/module etc. and
have no dependency on root path.

[update] nested tags...

[Arron Bates]

Peoples,

Important changes just committed into CVS for the nested tags.

1) Copyright date in the header license is updated to include 2003!
2) The internal changes to get them dancing with Tomcat 4.1.18 & more.

For those too lazy to get the entire distrib of the next nightly, you can get
just the nested tags from...

http://www.keyboardmonkey.com/downloads/km-nested-v2.03.jar

   ...the ony diff between this and the last jar I posted, is it's more
reliable in using more than one root tag on the same page, using different
root tags within the nesting itself (docco on this to come), and a bug fix for
the two tags which like to play differently (nested:options & nested:link).

If people were just about to raise bugs on my last jar of these tags which
have anything to do with what's just mentioned (multiple root tags, link and
options tags), can you have another run with this jar to see if they go away.

Docco on the additional stuff this rejig of the tags can do is in the works.

For those who care, enjoy.
For those who don't, as you were.

Thanks again.


Arron.

RE: Is struts-config too verbose?

[John Espey]

It seems to me that it is less verbose than a non-Struts alternative (and
certainly not as verbose as the original email ;-)

seriously though, action mappings don't really define the usage of a form,
they define the usage of an Action class.  The way you act on that data is
what changes from action mapping to action mapping. You only define the form
once.  so I'm not sure what the complaint is For your "several different
actions" question, take a look at DispatchAction and RelayAction, they
should simplify your Actions for you somewhat.

also, your html:form tag doesn't need to specify the name of the form
either, it will find it via your action specification.

one more prepopulate question

[Dan Allen]

I know that the prepopulate question has been beaten into the ground
around here and the answer on the FAQ page is complete in answering
most questions I have about the concept.  But I just want to run
something by this list, see if I am going about it in the right way.

When you are designing an application, and the index page has
several mini-forms (such as a limited search, a login and maybe a
site index) the first page has to be a *.do page.  So I figured,
make an index.jsp page with



Then my /index action would prepare the forms and display /home.jsp.
The FAQ talks about putting the form population in the Action class
for the /index action, which works great...

...except, how would you populate more than one form?  Seems like in
the cast you limit yourself to the form defined in the action
mapping.  Would it be necessary to just set up an action chain?

Dan

STRUTS with TORQUE

[Petrus, Christian (CORP, GEITC)]

  Hello All,

Thanks for all the help in this list.   
 
We are rewriting an entire swing application and we have chosen Struts for
the new web version of the product.  
 
For the database handling part, we are planning to use Torque.  Does anyone
have experience working with Struts / Torque or have Information especially
on what can go wrong with this combo?  Torque seems to be too good and easy
to be true!!!
 
Any info. would be greatly appreciated!!
 
Thanks in advance,
Christian

Re: Session Problems

[ashokd]

Hi,

Write another get/set method is PersonForm() which returns/sets ArrayList.
This method will return addresses ArrayList.
By using getNewMethod(), get the ArrayList and Add to this.
I think you no need to setNewMethod() once again. because it will pass by
reference.
Even though you check once.

If it is not updating setNewMethod() with modified ArrayList.

private ArrayList mMyList = new ArrayList();

 public Object[] getMyList() {
   return mMyList .toArray();
 }
 public ArrayList getNewList() {
  return mMyList ;
 }
 public void setNewList(ArrayList pCList) {
  mMyList =pCList;
 }

Thanks & Regards,
Ashok.D

Re: Is struts-config too verbose?

[ashokd]

Hi Mark,

What is your contact.Saved action mapping ?
In forward don't give another action, simply give some jsp page.
If we need pre processing before loading the page then only you give to
another action for forward.

Ashok.D

Re: Is struts-config too verbose?

[David Graham]

There's no rule that says you can only use a form bean with one action.  You 
can define many actions that use the same type of form bean.  Also, you 
don't need to provide the name attribute for the  tag because it 
generates one for you.

Looking at struts-config i see an inflexible application skeleton that

way is...Can someone enlighten me please?

I have a Contact form.  I want to be able to reuse this contact form, which 
has standard information such as name, address, etc, in several places in 
my application.

Looking at how action mappings work and all, the form's action field is 
constant.. Therefore, if i have this:




in my jsp:



THen inside my action class I have the code to process the form, and

The problem i see here is, this contact form will always be processed by 
the same action servlet, and forwarded to the same forward.  What If I had 
several different scenarios that needed to edit/view the contact data, 
maybe even Different contact data such as User Contact, Customer Contact, 
etc.  So that means that the "save" functionality might be different, and 
the next page, the "results" might be different.

RE: indexed property

[Mark]

I thought because Struts uses BeanUtils that it would have been able to figure this 
out for you byusing




You cant do this:



because struts treats whatever is in the value parameter as a literal, and does not 
perform a lookup.

Because the TextTag uses RequestUtils.Lookup method to lookup the "property" which in 
turn, uses the very nifty BeanUtils from commons to find the value from our array 
based form property.

Now, BeanUtils offers us some cool functionality:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/api/org/apache/commons/beanutils/PropertyUtils.html

"Indexed (name[index]) - The underlying property value is assumed to be an array, or 
this JavaBean is assumed to have indexed property getter and setter methods. The 
appropriate (zero-relative) entry in the array is selected. List objects are now also 
supported for read/write. You simply need to define a getter that returns the List "

Now, I dont know how this works in practice ;)

Good luck,
Mark

Re: More Than Form On A JSP

[Mark]

I have found that I needed to do this:


  MapActionForm myForm=(MapActionForm)actionForm;
  request.setAttribute("mapForm",myForm);

to get this to work.  I dont know why, but my form loses visibility like yours.  the 
above seemed to rectify the situation.

There is a nify Pager component in Karapan Sapi Struts Generator that works quite well 
with the iterate tag's offset parameter.  I have embedded this into my form just as 
you have done, and it worked good.

RE: Session Problems

[Sri Sankaran]

Is the addAddress() method of your PersonForm simply a cover for the ArrayList's add 
method?  In other words, is it simply doing addresses.add(object-to-add)?

Can you test the size of the list in the getter to see if data is indeed being 
clobbered?

The form bean is simply a standard action form, when its created It simply does the 
following in the constructor

public PersonForm() {

addresses = new ArrayList(20);  
}

To get the addresses and iterate through them I simply have:

/**
 * Get Addresses
 */
public Object[] getAddresses() {
return (this.addresses.toArray()); 
}

When the second form is submitted the following method is called In the 
AddAddressAction via the lookup dispatch action:

public ActionForward addAddress(ActionMapping mapping, 
  ActionForm form, 
  HttpServletRequest request, 
  HttpServletResponse response) throws 
Exception {



//Check that the token is valid, if it is then reset it
if(isTokenValid(request)) {

System.out.println("Token is valid, resetting
the request");
resetToken(request);
}   
else {
System.out.println("Token is invalid");
}


//Get the action form
PersonForm personForm = (PersonForm)form;   

int addressId = (personForm.getNumberOfAddresses() + 1);

System.out.println("New id is " + generatedId);

//Create the question option from the buffered values
Address address = new Address (generatedId, new String("address"));




//Add the question option to the action form
personForm.addAddress(address);  


//Save a token for this request to prevent automatic refreshing
//from submitting the request again
System.out.println("Saving the token");
saveToken(request);

 //Now the address has been added return to the add person page

return (mapping.findForward("addPerson"));
}   

The address is added but the next time I try to add an address to old one Is 
overwritten..

Hi,

I'm curerntly having problems with sessions in Struts.

I have two JSP's both of which point to the same action.

In my first JSP I have a number of basic properties and a list of addresses as shown 
below:

*Name:  Bill Blah
*Age:  23

* Addresses (list)
23 Glamorgan Street  |  ER34 5RT  | Edit | Delete
13 Glamorgan Street  |  ER34 6TT  | Edit | Delete

The addresses are simply displayed using a logic:iterate tag.  

I also supply a link on this page to add an address in a seperate page, this JSP 
allows a user to add an address to the list in the first page. 
When the page is submitted it is simply added to in the actionform.

Once I've entered the new address using this second page I'm returned tot he first 
page where the new address is shown in the list of addresses. the problem I have is 
that when I add a second address it removes the first address and only the second 
address is shown here as:

* Addresses (list)
13 Glamorgan Street  |  ER34 6TT  | Edit | Delete

instead of 

* Addresses (list)
23 Glamorgan Street  |  ER34 5RT  | Edit | Delete
13 Glamorgan Street  |  ER34 6TT  | Edit | Delete

I'm assuming this is a problem with the session, could somebody please explain to me 
why this happening.  I have set the scope to session for both JSP pages and both JSP 
pages use the same action form so why is this happening?

Many thanks,
Jon.

RE: Nested:Checkbox

Thanks Arron.
For whatever reason removing the name did help a bit (but only enough to get
the page to display) I dont know why that was the case since I used the name
attribute before and it worked fine (pre b3 struts). I found the cause of my
other error though. It was a scoping issue. I had the form in request scope
and apparently nested doesnt like that. While I dont like putting things in
session scope when I can help it. I guess I have to go with what works for
now.

nested tags don't like the "name" attribute, becuase they're getting the
bean
from their parent. In the example, the check is working off the product of
the
iterate tag anyway. I'm betting the following is what you're after...

  

  

...(there was also the closing slash in the checkbox tag, as well as the
closing tag, may have been the issue too). The process of making a bean with
the "id" property, and then the child using that, is more or less what the
nested tags do for free.

Hope this gets you working.
Happy nesting...

To get the addresses and iterate through them I simply have:

}

When the second form is submitted the following method is called
In the AddAddressAction via the lookup dispatch action:

public ActionForward addAddress(ActionMapping mapping, 
  ActionForm form, 
  HttpServletRequest request, 
  HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {



//Check that the token is valid, if it is then reset it
if(isTokenValid(request)) {

System.out.println("Token is valid, resetting
the request");

}   
else {

}


//Get the action form
PersonForm personForm = (PersonForm)form;   

int addressId = (personForm.getNumberOfAddresses() + 1);

System.out.println("New id is " + generatedId);

//Create the question option from the buffered values

 //Now the address has been added return to the add person page

It's not even the fact that there's a java.awt.Component class that causes
this problem -- it's caused by the way that java.beans.Introspector looks
up BeanInfo classes via the getBeanInfoSearchPath() method.  The net
effect is that using a class named Component is the one and only case
where you have this issue, at least on the Sun JDK.  Do a search for
BeanInfoSearchPath in the archives of COMMONS-DEV or COMMONS-USER for more
discussion if you're interested in the nitty gritty details.

RE: [OT] DBCP Pool Closed connection problem

[Gaurav . Goyal]

Thats what i've been thinking. 
after we obtain results in a resultset and before we start iterating through
it, the original connection is somehow getting closed. it could be because
some other user has a reference to the same connection. but i'm not sure how
that can happen. all connections are local variables in action classes (i'll
double check this). i've also synchronized the getConnection method on the
pool.

Thanks for the replies.
How can turn on the validation which checks for a good connection before
returning.
I guess i need to setTestOnBorrow(true). Do I need to do any thing else?

We actually have automated JTest which checks for all closed connections. So
that's what makes me certain that connections are all closed properly.
What i did is that i made only one connection available to the pool. and
when i'm the only user, things work fine even with one available connection.

I had this problem once.  At the time, I was positive everything was closed
correctly, but it turned out at one point, where I was unwrapping the
connection, I had closed it.  This inadvertently caused the pool to be
exhausted.

This occurred before I had a quality check on my connections, so it didn't
replace the closed ones.  Still, check exhaustively before you say you are
positive all closings are correct.

Look down on the list to the messages just posted about this under..

There are several ways to do it. Simplest is to just put your collection

I "solved" this problem quasi-generically (I depend on an ID field
in my beans, at least for now) by writing a CrudDispatchAction that
gets the bean class from a standardized name in the resource bundle
(i.e., the name attribute in the action configuration is the prefix
for the classname and I append a .classname to it to find the
appropriate class).

I've appended my CrudDispatchAction class below (it's very alpha and not
robust, it's a work in progress :) and I'd love to hear any comments on
it regarding style issues, robustification, struts paradigms, whether or
not this is even a good idea, you name it. I'm the only programmer here
so feedback is lacking :(

I left out the doCreate method since I haven't done the general purpose
one yet and I would expect some refactoring to happen (for instance the
Class instantiation stuff will go into a base class because I'm already
planning to subclass this for some other purposes).

Thanks,
Dave Newton

RE: [OT] DBCP Pool Closed connection problem

[Phillip Qin]

I had similar problem before. I read the first row in the ResultSet and
accidentally put a ; so I was actually at the end of the ResultSet and I was
trying to read from next row. That's exhausted!

I had this problem once.  At the time, I was positive everything was closed
correctly, but it turned out at one point, where I was unwrapping the
connection, I had closed it.  This inadvertently caused the pool to be
exhausted.

This occurred before I had a quality check on my connections, so it didn't
replace the closed ones.  Still, check exhaustively before you say you are
positive all closings are correct.

Commons Version with Struts in WSAD 5

[Tim T. Young]

Does anyone know what version of Commons is with Struts 1.1b2 in WSAD 5?
Or what version of Commons Validator was distributed with Struts 1.1b2 in
general?

I read the release notes for 1.1b2 and while they mention using commons
they do not specify versions.

Thanks,
Tim

struts, tomcat, and log4j

[Kirby Vandivort]

So, I'm running 1.1rc of struts, tomcat 4.1.18, and I just downloaded
log4j 1.2.8.

I have a struts webapp in development, and I currently have all of the
struts-required commons-*.jar files in WEB-INF/lib, and I dropped
log4j-1.2.8.jar there also.

After deployment, at random times, tomcat now hangs on me and won't let
me connect.  The only error of note is in catalina.out and is:

org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException:
org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException:
org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: Class
org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JCategoryLog does not implement Log
  at 
org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl.newInstance(LogFactoryImpl.java:555)
  at 
org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl.getInstance(LogFactoryImpl.java:289)
  at org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory.getLog(LogFactory.java:409)
  at org.apache.tomcat.util.log.CommonLogHandler.log(CommonLogHandler.java:97)
  at org.apache.tomcat.util.log.Log.log(Log.java:198)
  at org.apache.tomcat.util.log.Log.log(Log.java:192)
  at org.apache.tomcat.util.log.Log.log(Log.java:174)
  at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:533)
  at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) 



So, from digging around, I now have a copy of commons-logging at:

${TOMCAT_HOME}/server/lib

_and_

at 
webapps/myapp/WEB-INF/lib



and, I suspect that the commons-logging stuff that tomcat is using
is seeing log4j that i wanted my struts webapp to use, and problems
are being caused.


What do I need to do to fix this?  I want to keep my struts webapp self
contained and not rely on jar files in tomcat if I can help it.  Can I
do that?

RE: STRUTS INTERNATIONALIZATION

[James Mitchell]

If I undertand you correctly, that's what PropertyMessageResources does.

For example, say you've got a server in France serving international
users
A request comes in and you code looks calls a resource "my.message"

It will look under the current users locale (say UK), it would
recursively look in:
1. ApplicationResources.properties_en_UK
2. ApplicationResources.properties_en
3. ApplicationResources.properties (Struts 'default')
And then finally the server's 'default' locale
4. ApplicationResources.properties_fr

I would say your best bet is to make #3 your base file and add locale
specific messages as you need them.

RE: STRUTS INTERNATIONALIZATION

[James Childers]

>From http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Intl/ResourceBundles/

[-- Begin quote --]
The getBundle method provides a graceful degradation algorithm that attempts to find 
the nearest matched bundle in cases where the specified bundle can't be found or 
doesn't exist. In the following search, each element of the search name is separated 
with an '_' (UNDERSCORE) character. The algorithm searches for bundle names in the 
following order: 

++
  +
++
  
+
++

[-- End quote --]

If a key is not found in a specific resource bundle, the next one higher up in the 
hierarchy is searched. The default behavior of ResourceBundle does what you need.

RE: is Component a reserved word?

[Andy Kriger]

java.awt.Component would be looked for first (since it is part of the
bootclasspath) - you'd need a way to tell the reflection what class comp2
is. you might have to workaround this with a scriplet instead of the
${comp2.name}

Hi,

I am not sure if this is a struts, taglib, or jstl issue but I will
start here.  I am using Struts/JSP's and am running into an 
error when I
try and reference my own object called Component.class with 
tag.  I first load my test objects into the session in the 
jsp page like
this:

<%
x.y.z.Component component = new x.y.z.Component();
x.y.z.Xomponent xomponent = new x.y.z.Xomponent();

session.setAttribute("comp2",component);
session.setAttribute("xomp2",xomponent);
%>

Next I try and view the value of the name like this:



Here is the error I am getting:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: An error occurred while evaluating
custom action attribute "value" with value "${comp2.name}": An error
occurred while getting property "name" from an instance of class
x.y.z.Component (java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: object is not an
instance of declaring class)
I have played around with this a bit and set up a small test
environment.  Here is my application list:
Tomcat 4.1.18
Struts 1.1 rc1
Java 1.3.1_06-b01
I have found that I can use the Runtime JSTL core tag like this and it
works fine:
"/>
I can also use the  tag like this and it works fine:

I have also found that if I take the exact same class and 
simply rename
it to Xomponent instead of Component and keep it in the same x.y.z
package, it works.  So I can then do:


Any ideas on this?  I have my very small test beans and jsp page if
someone needs them.
Thanks,
John

Re: [Q] Revisiting: Repopulating Lists after validation returns false

[Jeff_Mychasiw]

We still keep static lists  in various scopes, but all of our pages are pre
populated with back end data so I needed a way to turn that off.

I found that this also helped me when I needed
to add stuff like  a "clear" link that would reload previously saved data.

Cool idea Jeff! Thanks. I actually thought about just even using one
mapping and then just checking for any ActionErrors (which there
shouldn't be if you are just coming from a normal set up of the form).
That might even be easier, although I haven't tried it.

STRUTS INTERNATIONALIZATION

[scarter]

Is there a way in struts to maintain a default application resources
file that can be referred to in the event that a requested resource is
not found in another resource file.  For example, it would be nice if I
could only define specific resources in each locale specific resource
file, instead of all of them, which consumes much more memory and more
importantly, makes the application difficult to maintain.  The full set
of default application resources could be defined in a default
application resource file that would be called if the resource is not
present in a locale specific one.  This is especially important where
two locales are defined, say the US and UK, where very few resource
differences exist.  If there are only a handful of resource differences
between these locales, I would not want to have to create an entirely
new resource file for each one, since there would be quite a few
redundancies.

I am aware that we can define separate resource bundles and associate
each one with a bundle name.  However the problem with this approach is
that I have to modify all of my struts tags to use statically defined
bundle names.  Does anyone know of another way I can resolve this
problem?  

Thanks,

Scott Carter

[OT] DBCP Pool Closed connection problem

[Gaurav . Goyal]

Hi,
I'm using commons DBCP in conjuction with STRUTS.
When a lot of users start using  our application, we start getting a
lot of exceptions related to Connections, like "Exhausted Resultset" or
"Connection is Closed". The first one happens when we try to retrieve a
column from a resultset. The second one happens when we try to open a
connection.
Neither of these errors happen in a predictable fashion.
Right now we have set the pool max active connections to 50 and the
number of users testing is about 5.
I'm absolutely positive, that all connections, resultsets and
statements have been closed at the appropriate places by the pool. 
Is it a problem with the way I've configured the pool? has anyone
faced a similar problem before?

Thanks,
Gaurav

A coworker claims this is a bug in reflection when used to introspect any class called

Will it is in his classpath indirectly it is not in his jsp unless he did a

Hi,

I am not sure if this is a struts, taglib, or jstl issue but I will
start here.  I am using Struts/JSP's and am running into an error when I
try and reference my own object called Component.class with 
tag.  I first load my test objects into the session in the jsp page like
this:

<%
x.y.z.Component component = new x.y.z.Component();

x.y.z.Xomponent xomponent = new x.y.z.Xomponent();

session.setAttribute("comp2",component);
session.setAttribute("xomp2",xomponent);

%>

Next I try and view the value of the name like this:



Here is the error I am getting:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: An error occurred while evaluating
custom action attribute "value" with value "${comp2.name}": An error
occurred while getting property "name" from an instance of class
x.y.z.Component (java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: object is not an
instance of declaring class)

I have played around with this a bit and set up a small test
environment.  Here is my application list:

Tomcat 4.1.18
Struts 1.1 rc1
Java 1.3.1_06-b01

I have found that I can use the Runtime JSTL core tag like this and it
works fine:

"/>

I can also use the  tag like this and it works fine:


I have also found that if I take the exact same class and simply rename
it to Xomponent instead of Component and keep it in the same x.y.z
package, it works.  So I can then do:


Any ideas on this?  I have my very small test beans and jsp page if
someone needs them.

[Q] Form doesn't keep options list ... JSP has no list

[michael . korolyov]

Hello,

on JSP I have:

dropdown selection:





and input field that I need validate in my reportForm  (on server)

the reportForm has all fields that are filled by Action class.
and JSP display all just fine.

but, when I type "wrong" value into input field
then reportForm validate returns errors
and then Struts forward it to JSP
and then I get error - so equipmentList is null - nothing filled it!!!

how I can resolve my problem?

tnx

Best Regards.
Michael.

RE: [Q] Revisiting: Repopulating Lists after validation returns false

I suppose you could keep the collection as a property of the form bean and
"serialize" it as a set of hidden inputs.

Yes, I'm thinking now after looking at all of the alternatives that
session scope will have to do ( the List is based on role so app scope
won't work). I was trying to avoid using Session scope since the List is
really only needed on one form and I didn't feel like taking care of
removing it. But now that I think about it it would be very easy to
remove the list from the Session once they get to the appropriate
Action. I guess the simplest solution is often the best:)

Re: [Q] Revisiting: Repopulating Lists after validation returns false

[Jeff_Mychasiw]

I handle this with mulitple mappings to the same loadAction.
The parameter is used to suppress parts of the load action.

/crApplicationLoad.do
and
/crApplicationLoadOnError.do

ie:
Two possible load mappings:


 
  

   
 
  

Perform validation on a save
 
 
  


>From the load action:
 //** Get Invoice List **
//Do not use the list if returned on error
if(!(param.equals(PARAM_ON_ERROR))){
 // get back end data for the page.
appForm.setInvoiceWebList();
}else{
   if(log.isDebugEnabled()) log.debug("Did not load list because of validation 
error: ");
}
//**


I have not tried it but it seems as thought this type of thing might be easier with a 
DynaAction..

hope this helps.

Subject:[Q] Revisiting: Repopulating Lists after validation returns
   false


A while back there was a good discussion going about the best practice
for repopulating lists that a JSP form needs after validation returns
false and you need to be returned to the initial JSP form.

The problem of course is if you have an options collection that is not
in session or application scope, you some how need to have this
collection repopulated.

Popular belief seems to be to not do this in the reset method of an
ActionForm (or any of it's sub classes).

I really liked Robert Taylor's solution of setting the input attribute
in your config file to be that of the action that sets up your form, so
that if validation fails you form collections are reset.

The problem, though, I'm running into with that approach is that what if
your setUp action also is used to set fields in the ActionForm? You will
end up reseting anything the user submitted for those fields.

Is there a good work around to this problem? or other suggestions of
where/when to repopulate lists after validation?

Re: passing parameter between a view and an action with

[alexj]

I just change the to url to href="/ibmss/getstudent.do paramId="name"
paramProperty="name"/> and

I didn't get any error but I'm still having trouble when I will populate a
form with
the datas I get from the preceding view.

In fact what I want to do is to when a user select a person in my view page
(where I have defined the link) is to pass all the datas to an action named
getstudent.

In this action I create a new ActionForm and populate with the datas I just
pick from my action. I 've do some System.out.println just to test if my
datas was taken. But I'm still having trouble when I want to forward
theses datas to an editstudent view page.

I define in my getstudent action an execute method who do this job :

public ActionForward execute(
 ActionMapping mapping,
 ActionForm form,
 HttpServletRequest request,
 HttpServletResponse response)
 throws Exception {

try {
  form = buildStudent(request.getParameter("name"));
  if (form == null) {
 System.out.println ("form nulle");
   }
  if ("request".equals(mapping.getScope() )) {
  System.out.println("<<>>");
  request.setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute(), form);
   }
  else {
 System.out.println("<<>>");
 HttpSession session = request.getSession();
 session.setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute(), form);  }
}
  catch (Exception ex) {
  }
  return mapping.findForward("success");

The buildStudent(request.getParameter("name"))
method build me the a new form with the existing
datas.

But when I run my editstudent view page have blank field.

My mapping is defined this way :

















Any idea 

Thank you in advance.

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: An error occurred while evaluating
custom action attribute "value" with value "${comp2.name}": An error
occurred while getting property "name" from an instance of class
x.y.z.Component (java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: object is not an
instance of declaring class)

I have played around with this a bit and set up a small test
environment.  Here is my application list:

Tomcat 4.1.18
Struts 1.1 rc1
Java 1.3.1_06-b01

I have found that I can use the Runtime JSTL core tag like this and it
works fine:

"/>

I can also use the  tag like this and it works fine:


I have also found that if I take the exact same class and simply rename
it to Xomponent instead of Component and keep it in the same x.y.z
package, it works.  So I can then do:


Any ideas on this?  I have my very small test beans and jsp page if
someone needs them.

Thanks,
John

RE: [Q] Revisiting: Repopulating Lists after validation returns false

[James Mitchell]

In most cases I've used, putting them in application scope works great.
I know that won't work for a list setup by what role someone might have
or other such case, in those cases I would use session scope (but I
don't see that much with what I do).

Wanted: struts-calendar

[David Bolsover]

Does anyone know of a good pop-up style calendar that will work with struts 

[Q] Revisiting: Repopulating Lists after validation returns false

[Rick Reumann]

A while back there was a good discussion going about the best practice
for repopulating lists that a JSP form needs after validation returns
false and you need to be returned to the initial JSP form.

The problem of course is if you have an options collection that is not
in session or application scope, you some how need to have this
collection repopulated.

Popular belief seems to be to not do this in the reset method of an
ActionForm (or any of it's sub classes). 

I really liked Robert Taylor's solution of setting the input attribute
in your config file to be that of the action that sets up your form, so
that if validation fails you form collections are reset.

The problem, though, I'm running into with that approach is that what if
your setUp action also is used to set fields in the ActionForm? You will
end up reseting anything the user submitted for those fields.

Is there a good work around to this problem? or other suggestions of
where/when to repopulate lists after validation?

RE: [Q] can I use ArrayList type for property ?

[michael . korolyov]

ArrayList doesn't work for me...

this type in my Form too, to be in sync with tag.

also I didn't find any doc / spec for this type.

any help are very welcome

Best Regards.
Michael.

Quoting the docs

..Renders an HTML  element of type checkbox, whose "checked" status
is initialized based on whether the specified value matches one of the
elements of the underlying property's array of current values...

I'd guess it must be an Object[].  I have used it only with String[]s.

I like to first set up my page by having a mapping submit to a setUp
Action. Then in this setUp action you could just do:

DynaActionForm f = (DynaActionForm) form;
f.set("firstName", "John Doe");
//etc.

then you would just forward to the jsp form.

DynaValidatorActionForm

[Sloan Seaman]

I'm getting the hang of struts (very cool) but I'm not sure how I should be
doing the following.

I have your standard add/change/delete part of an application.

For the add part I have the following form bean defined:

   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
  

Here is my question:

For my edit page, how do I populate a bean for the edit page to use to
populate the fields?  From what I've been reading it seems like I don't ahve
to write a form class anymore because of the DynaActionForm stuff, but I'm a
bit confused.

So far all I ahve figured out is that to get to the edit page I will call
and action that will somehow populate something and then the jsp page will
be displayed and will be populated...

Help?

Re: Tiles: dynamically adding definitions

[John Nikolai]

Thanks Cedric, I look forward to seeing the document.

Is this a feature which may be added to Tiles at a future date?
Or is this too specialized?
Thanks again,

 Hi,

 The answer is yes, but it need some coding.

 The default definition factory doesn't provide a well know API to add 
dynamically new definitions.
 What you can do is to implement your own definition factory to 
provide such functionality. You can extends the existing factory and 
add the methods you need.
 You have to know that the "extends" mechanism is resolved statically 
when the config file is loaded. After that, definitions are stored 
resolved. So, you have to resolve yourself your extend. This is 
however simple to do: get the definition referenced by "extend", 
create a new definition initialized with the previously loaded one, 
add your own attributes, store your definition in the factory.
 I have a short document describing how to write a factory. I will 
make it accessible asap.

Is it possible to define a few base tiles definitions (loaded using 
TilesPlugin) and, during runtime, read in other definitions which 
extend these base definitions?

Here is an example use:

We have an XML file which defines a web site and used to generate the 
web site navigation. If we add a new page to the site we need to 
update this XML file to update the navigation as well. Can I add a 
tiles definition to this XML file and add that definition into tiles 
for processing?

 Events & Activities 


...


NOTE: "master.page" is defined in the default definitions loaded at 
startup using TilesPlugin.

Doing it this way when I add a new file I only need to update a 
single XML file as opposed to several.

Thanks for your help!
