html:link and two dynamic parameter

[shashi_struts]

hi

i has been work on a html:linka and want some parameter to next page.
this is my code that i am using


this runs fine 

 i want to add a one more paramater with name 'surveyId' and the value comes from the 
bean 'survey' 
i tried too much but not write down the proper code.

i know we could use the Map for sending multiple parameter but that's not fit on my 
program 'use i have a table in which multiple question but only one survey id.

i think u understand my point.


help me to find out the solution.

thanks

[OT] Learning Curve Management or Confusions of a Newbie

[Jeff Smith]

I have to confess, I'm a newbie. I've been a C/C++ programmer for 20 years, but after 
dinking around for a few months with ASP, VBScript, PHP and a few other technologies, 
I decided that Java was the language to build my web apps in.

A month ago I was completely cold. Didn't know the first thing about any of this 
stuff. But I knew I wanted to learn it, so off I went, marching into the high weeds. 
First I had to learn Java. Then came servlets and JSPs and Tomcat. And along that path 
I also had to absorb Ant. And JUnit. And Log4J. And then there was a bunch of time 
lost exploring NetBeans/Eclipse/WebSphere before settling on JEdit as my environment 
of choice.

Then came Struts, and all the various taglibs. An experiment with Cayenne. And Cactus. 
And god-knows what else I've explored.

And through it all, I am continually amazed at the strength and breadth of the 
resources and support available. And equally frustrated by it. I can never remember 
where I saw a particular bit of information. So when I finally learn enough to 
understand what Ted was talking about in his monograph on Connection Pooling, I can't 
remember where I saw it.

And when I want to learn enough about EJBs to figure out if I need to care about them, 
or if they are relevant to my planned project, I have to wade through another day of 
voluminous coverage before I have enough of a handle on what they are to make some 
intelligent guesses about where to look next.

My point is that I believe the Apache/Java/Struts/... universe is quickly reaching a 
point where its very breadth is becoming a barrier to entry for people who don't have 
a couple of months to devote to bootstrapping themselves.

Is there any thought being given to creating a higher-level resource interface that 
could serve as a single point of reference for all things Apache? (I realize that "all 
things java" would be going way too far.) As a simple solution, if every document in 
the Apache infrastructure had a meta tag that listed the questions answered by the 
document, then a very powerful, automated FAQ could be maintained. And such a system 
would make it much easier (I believe) to find things quickly than simply searching the 
site for key words.

This may not be the best (or only) solution, but I do believe that for all the very 
specific support and discussions there are, there is really very little over-view 
material to assist newcomers or people looking for information outside of their core 
area.

Or maybe I'm the only one who feels overwhelmed by it all. :-)

Re: Avoiding refresh stomping

[Max Cooper]

Dan's suggestion to use redirects is a good one. I redirect in response to
most POST operations to avoid these problems. It adds a bit of network
overhead to some of the pages, but the exipred POST data, double submits,
and the browser's address bar not matching what the user is seeing are all
worse, in my opinion. Bookmarking the page after a POST is another
troublesome area, so redirecting (which always results in the browser making
a GET request) solves a lot of those problems.

Oh yes, the Back button is a problem, too. I reject the idea that you can
tell users not to use it -- that just isn't a reasonable position. But
handling it properly is admittedly a big challenge. Most browsers will drop
the POST request from the history since the response is a redirect, which
seems to work out perfectly most of the time.

In watching people (even ones who should know better) I find that an
alarming number of users double-click everything. Links, submit buttons, you
name it -- people double click them all the time. I guess they just like to
show off their double-clicking prowess or something.

RE: Avoiding refresh stomping

[Andrew Hill]

Another problem I encountered with going direct from a post instead of
redirecting is that all the submitted parameters are carried along too -
which means that data submitted for form A can end up populating fields on
action form B where the parameter names match...

...handling the back button gracefully can be very difficult - especially if
many of your GETs are more in the nature of state-changing events rather
than navigational requests. (Of course its better to use posts for such, but
its not always practical)

Hmm... I don't think there is much you can do in that case with
container-managed security. If the user fails to login within the session
expiration time, their session will expire. When the user then submits the
login form, it will look like a spontaneous login to the server, which is
not supported with container-managed security, and will cause an error (on
Tomcat at least; WebLogic does something a little different, but I think the
different behaviors just highlight the reason why depending on this setup is
risky).

The SecurityFilter project supports this kind of operation to some extent.
The session will still expire, so the server will not be able to take the
user directly to the protected page that caused the login form to appear.
But SecurityFilter supports the configuration of a 'default page' to send
the user to if they login without an active session, or simply submit a
login form without being sent there by the filter.

minLength && maxLength javascript inconsistent

[Dan Allen]

Why are fields of type = 'password' excluded from minLength and
maxLength checks?  Seems to be a bug to me.  Surely just because the
form input is using hidden characters does not mean that they should
be excluded from these checks, especially since the server-side
check will handle password and text fields as one in the same.

By the way, I checked CVS and the issue is still current.

Multiple application support

[Manfred Wolff]

Hi

I have some problems with struts multiple application support. I have 
build a second struts-config.xml called common-struts-config.xml and I 
have registered it in the web.xml.

  
action
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet
  
config
/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml
  
  
config/common
/WEB-INF/struts-config-common.xml
  

  debug
  4


  detail

In my Index.jsp I have the folloging tag:



and I get an exception. I have debuged struts and I might have found the 
problem in the html:form tag but in the requestUtils.

In FormTag.java line 713:

moduleConfig = RequestUtils.getModuleConfig(pageContext);

And the procedure in RequestUtils:

public static ModuleConfig getModuleConfig(PageContext pageContext) {
ModuleConfig moduleConfig =
(ModuleConfig) 
pageContext.getRequest().getAttribute(Globals.MODULE_KEY);
if (moduleConfig == null) { // Backwards compatibility hack
moduleConfig =
(ModuleConfig) 
pageContext.getServletContext().getAttribute(Globals.MODULE_KEY);
}
return moduleConfig;
}

It searches only in the default module and not in the several 
modul-configuration. So I think here is one problem.

Just my question: Has anyone have succeed with multiple 
struts-config-modules. Perhaps I make a mistake.

And www.somehost.com/myapp/execute/edit/ gets me

But And www.somehost.com/myapp/execute/edit (without the slash)

Works fine, but it's without the path info..

Is this a resin issues? or could this be a struts config issue?  Has anyone

Re: Multiple application support

[Thomas CORNET]

Had the same problem.. You need to pass through the struts controller to 
use the modules, because this is the controller which is able to determine 
in which module you are. So you need to browse the result of an action to 
use modules. Just create an action without form in your 
struts-config-common.xml such as :



With a void action such as

public ActionForward execute(
ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception
{
return mapping.findForward("ok");
}
And try to test 'http://localhost/app/common/index.do' instead of 
'http://localhost/app/common/index.jsp', this should work well :)

Cocoon has an impressive URl management system (for example, it can trigger
not on the URL but on some combination of request parameters if you want :-)
So Cocoon as the front-end is the best, IMHO.

Search result page with logic:iterate

[Renato Romano]

The  tag has attributes "offset" and "length" that
defines the starting element and the maximum number of elements to
iterate; I'd like to use those attributes to display the "X results per
page" navigation style of a search, but i'm looking for an easy way to
dynamically generate those values, and also adding links for 
and  page, or maybe (better) something like
 <1> <2> <3> ...  like in search engine result pages...
I'm sure there something ready to do the work.
Thanks

How do you keep your session junk free?

[julian green]

How do you prevent the session from filling up with junk from previous 
screens?  Or to put it another way:

I have written some screens that have to store the form bean in the 
session scope as each screen is interconnected and uses the same 
instance of the form bean.   If I change the scope to request a new form 
bean is created for each screen (every time a jsp file is rendered).  Is 
there a way of implementing multiple screens with the same form bean 
with a request scope?

Re: Struts-Tiles causes charset problem!!!

[Cedric Dumoulin]

 So you have a encoding type problem on the server side. This is not 
related to Tiles because you have the same problem with jsp:include.

  Have you try to specify the encoding in each faulty jsp:
<%@ page pageEncoding ..%>.
 You can also specify the encoding of the tiles-config.xml file:

 Hope this help,

 Check if the returned page (the page source in the browser) has the
appropriate encoding tag.
The page encoding is usually set in your template.jsp file.

custom validator IllegalAccessException

[Dan Allen]

I am attempting to get this identical field validator working and
after a long night I feel as if I am almost there.  However, this is
the latest ERROR reported when the field is undergoing validation.

java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Class
ERROR org.apache.commons.validator.Validator - reflection: Class
org.apache.commons.validator.Validator can not access a member of
class net.creativerge.struts.validator.FieldChecks with modifiers
"public static"

Okay, so what the heck does that mean?  My custom class has a single
method

public static boolean validateIdentical()

Re: Tiles and appending request parameters

 Hi,

let me provide a more real world example and see what you would do.

- I have a tile that displays the menu data.

- The "tile.menu" contollerUrl needs to retrieve the userid from the
original action that called the mypage definition. Since the tile.menu
definition spawns it's own request I assume it does not have access to the
request of the parent page. Therefore, I was wondering if there is a way to
pass the userId down into the request that is spawned by the controllerUrl.
 Tiles use RequestDispatcher.include() to include a tile or call a 
controller. The original request is accessible in all the included tiles 
or controller. So, you can access the userId.

Here is a step through of the process I envision

request ->
Action ->
page that contains controllerUrl tile definition ->
menu tile calls controllerUrl Action ->
(Here is where I want to pass parameters into the request spawned by the
controllerUrl)
 Here you retrieve the userId, and create the appropriate user menu. 
There is several solutions:

   * set a tile attribute to a predefined menu definition
   * create dynamically a list of menu entry
   * ...
Action does it's magic ->
Action returns a page with a menu customized to a particular user.
 The action forward to the menu tile which retrieve the appropriate 
attribute and show it as a menu ...

 Check the example in struts-documentation/example: there is a user 
customizable menu. This menu is set in a controller according to what 
the user has chosen. The corresponding definition is in 
tiles-examples-def.xml (examples.userMenu).

Subject: Re: Tiles and appending request parameters


 Hi,

 I think that the problem is not related to the Tiles. What you want is
to be able to add a request parameter to the current requestResponse.
 When Tiles include the controller via its url, is simply do an
include, and doesn't modify the requestResponse object. So, you still
have all the http parameters that are associated to the request. You can
yourself modify the requestResponse object in your action before
inserting the tiles. Check the jsp and servlet spec to know if it is
possible to add an http parameter. Personally I use to pass such extra
parameters in the request context or Tile context rather than a new http
parameter.
 Hope this help,

  Cedric

Ignore me, I am a fool.  My class was not declared as "public" so
obviously I could not have a public method.  Keep that in mind.

Dynamic clientside validation checks?

[Gunter D' Hondt]

Hi,

We are generating our formbeans dynamically which results that the
regular way of clientside validation checks doesn't work anymore since
our validation.xml should only contain one form but we don't know which
formfields it will have.

Is there a way how we can dynamically send the xml stream (so not from
an xml file but built at runtime) and let the client validation get
imported to the JSP page? Or just another way of making the
validation.xml somewhere dynamic?

Any help is welcome!

Greetings,
Gunter D'Hondt.

Finally got it working... If no action exists for a request that was
mapped to the Struts servlet, the request is forwarded to the default
servlet. This could be extended somewhat to handle forwarding to
specific servlets for handling other kinds of dynamic content. One minor
issue however is that I am not sure whether the default servlet has the
same name on all servlet containers.


public class DefaultAction
 extends Action
{
 public ActionForward execute(...)
  throws Exception
 {
  servlet.getServletContext().
getNamedDispatcher("default").
forward(request, response);
  return null;
 }
}

Hi, i've a problem with url..how i retrieve the mapping of url in a jsp? for
example i have an jsp as index and an action-mapping as it:

now in another jsp call homeA.do and i see index.jsp in my browser, the url in
my browser is .../homeA.do but if i try to obtain this url (with
request.getRequestURI() )i obtain /index.jsp and not homeA.do that i would..
It's possible in a jsp retrieve the url that i see in my browser (in this case
homeA.do) instead of the real url???

getRequestURI() should return the exact address the client requested,
minus query string. Perhaps you set redirect to true? But then the
address displayed in the browser should have been updated to index.jsp
as well.

Is Initial "" allowed in Struts

Hi All,

Any body has encountered or know this problem.

I have got this entry for a particular field in struts

 

I have made the initial as "".

When I run in my development environment it works fine but when I
put it in Websphere 4.0 the application fails with NullPointerException.

I think this may be the problem line. Does the inital value of "" gives
this problem ??

Re: Problem mapping/url

[Nicolas De Loof]

(Sorry for previous empty message : too quickly clicked !)


On tomcat, websphere and Weblogic I get CURRENT servlet (and JSP) URI
when using
request.getRequestURI(). API Javadoc says :
"Returns the part of this request's URL from the protocol name up to
the query string in the first line of the HTTP request"

I think this appends :

When a forward is used, the RequestDispatcher object updates the
request, to put the "forwarded" URI :
(from javadoc) "For a RequestDispatcher obtained via
getRequestDispatcher(), the ServletRequest object has its path
elements and parameters adjusted to match the path of the target
resource".

So I don't this it is possible to get the "as in browser" URI.

Re: How do you keep your session junk free?

[Jose Gonzalez Gomez]

   A few years ago, when Struts was not still available, we programmed 
a web layer framework much more primitive than Struts but with similar 
functionality for the project I was involved. One of the functionalities 
we had was request flow control, so we were sure that the user wasn't 
going back and forth and we had the right information in the session. 
Whenever there was a request that was not proper following the current 
flow, a message error was showed to the user, with the suggestion to 
begin the flow again.

   We didn't reach that far, but I think such a functionality may 
provide a way to define "wizards" or page flows and let the application 
have a callback method to clean the session stored in data in case the 
user leaves the wizard. This is a functionality that I'd love to have in 
Struts. Right now, I try to clean the session when I reach the final 
step of such a series of pages, but you are not guaranteed that the user 
ever reaches it.

   The other solution is having all the data introduced so far by the 
user in hidden fields (though I don't recommend it).

html:text property problem

Hi,

  I am trying to use the following



to set the property in a html:text box. The property is of type String[]. So
I am using the above indexed property access method.



I have also put the following check in my form.

public String getStartDateIndexed( int index ) {

startDate_ = new String[]{ new
DateUtility().getCurrentDate() };
}
return startDate_[ index ];
}

along with pre-population of the html:text boxes. Inspite of all this
sometimes the following exception is thrown.

  Anybody see any chinks in the armour above. What more error checks does it
need ? Is it the right way with Struts 1.0 ?

WebWork vs Struts

[Nicolas De Loof]

Reading Hibernate doc, I discovered xPetstore
(http://xpetstore.sourceforge.net/index.html), an implementation of
SUN java pet store with xDoclet.
In fact, they're is 2 implementations :
- one based on Struts & EJB
- the other based on WebWork & Hibernate.

As I don't know about Webwork (http://www.opensymphony.com/webwork/),
does anyone have info about differences (or commons) between Struts an
WebWork ?

You're right, just checked SRV.8.4. Strange that this had never bitten
me, of course I always use html:link @page or @action...

Perhaps one workaround would be to store the original request object as
a request attribute in the Action class?

Sessions Again (Last Time)

[JONATHAN PHILIP HOLLOWAY]

Ok can somebody clarify this, I have one JSP that uses two actions,
If I use Action A exclusively then only one session will be used but if
I try to use Action B from the same JSP will a new session be
created?

Do you mean JSP has two forms (with different action) ?

In any case, if a session has been created on server by a first
browser request, every new request will be linked to this session
(until timeout or browser restart). What server resource is requested
(JSP, action ...) doesn't matter.

(Don't forget session is not a struts feature but a J2EE servlet
container feature.)

[Repost] Cannot Cast to Map

[Jerry Jalenak]

I'm in dire need of some help on this.  I can't seem to figure out
what has changed.  This worked with a mid-Feb build of 1.1b3, but has quit
working since I swapped in the 1.1rc1 build from both 03/05 and 03/06.
Please?  Anyone?





I'm getting the following message from the  tags following
conversion to the 1.1rc1 nightly build from 3/5:

[ServletException in:/WEB-INF/tiles/membersolutions/menu.jsp] Cannot
cast to Map for name=Authenticated_UserKey property=null scope=null' 

The jsp looks like

RE: Sessions Again (Last Time)

Of course you have to be sure that the session id is included in the action
url (afaik struts form tag will do this for you) if your not using cookies
or all requests might end up creating a new session!

GET/POST in Actions & Form Validation

[Stefan Arentz]

Hi,

This is my first web app with Struts, so please be gentle :-)

I am trying to implement the following pattern:

 On GET:

  - Populate a form with fields OR show an empty form
  - Show the form
 On POST:

  - Validate the form, show it again if it has errors.

Very basic, but yet, I can't find the correct way to do this with 
Struts.

I have not seen one piece of example code that looks at the request 
method to make the distinction between showing the initial empty form 
(GET) or processing it (POST).

In my code I do basically this:

 execute()
 {
if (request.getMethod().compareTo("GET") == 0)
{
   ... code to setup the session ...
   return mapping.findForward("AddRecord"); // Shows the form
}
if (request.getMethod().compareTo("POST") == 0)
{
   ... execute some business logic ...
   return mapping.findForward("Success"); // Goes back to were we 
came from
}
  }

But the problem here is that when I forward to the AddRecord forward, 
the form is validated, which in case of an empty initial form will show 
errors for each field. I can set validate to false in my action 
definition but then validation is also skipped when I need it.

The forward is defined like this:

  

This must be very basic, but it is very difficult to find a clear 
answer in the large amount of Struts related resources :-/

Re: WebWork vs Struts

[Mark]

I'm sure that subject has come up a lot in the past, perhaps consult the mailing list

After starting our project with struts, and fumbling over configuration stuff, I had a 
cursory look at webwork and decided that "i just dont get it" and stuck with struts.

Good luck,

Re: Avoiding refresh stomping

[Mark]

I've resolved this type of problem by using a redirect instead.  This way, if they 
refresh, they only refresh the current page (which should just render a view, not 
process any business logic).

It also depends on where you have your business logic.

Regards,
Mark

You can set validate="false" and call the validation method from action if you
would..
try it.

Ah! Good advise. I didn't think of that :-/

I also got it to work with an extra action where validation was set to 
false, but doing the validation programatically is much nicer.

The "standard" for an actionForm is to have every field as String.
All conversion (which should really be thought of as business logic)
should
occur in the Action classes or further down the food chain. If this is
not
possible in your case or does not solve what your working on then can
you
please give more details?

Hi.

I have an action that gets a date from the MS SQL 2000 in -MM-dd. I
convert it with simpledateformat as dd-MM- and put it in a jsp form.
When submitting the form the date must be coverted back to -MM-DD
before another actions update the db.

I am trying to convert the date value in the ActionForm, but I am
getting the following error.

Any idears? I am lost and it is very urgent

Yes, it's a good point, but the only place my date is a String, is in

Would you store the date as long there?

Emne: RE: date format problems

The "standard" for an actionForm is to have every field as String.
All conversion (which should really be thought of as business logic)
should
occur in the Action classes or further down the food chain. If this is
not
possible in your case or does not solve what your working on then can
you
please give more details?

Subject: date format problems


Hi.

I have an action that gets a date from the MS SQL 2000 in -MM-dd. I
convert it with simpledateformat as dd-MM- and put it in a jsp form.
When submitting the form the date must be coverted back to -MM-DD
before another actions update the db.

I am trying to convert the date value in the ActionForm, but I am
getting the following error.

Any idears? I am lost and it is very urgent

With all due respect to apachep2 I would store myDate as a String in an
ActionForm bean and then in your business class you store your Date as
the Date you want (I prefer java.util.Date).

So now the question becomes how do you quickly copy all of your String
form bean properties into this business bean that has a type:
java.util.Date.\

In your action you submit to you do:

BeanUtils.copyProperties( yourBusinessBean, yourActionFormBean )


BUT, as you have realized copyProperties will not work for
java.util.Date. So you need to register a converter.


I posted about this a while a back and a search of the archives reveals
the link below. I would change one thing though... following Craig's
suggestion it's cleaner to register the converter as a Plugin which you
can do easily in your struts-config file. Since all my DispatchAction
classes extend a BaseAction I registered the converter there in a static
block, which works, but it's just cleaner as a Plugin since you could
easily swap out the converter at a later time.

Let me know if this link helps. If you are still having trouble let me
know.

Re: [NESTED-TAGS]Anyone using nested tags with the latest nightly build?

[Jeff_Mychasiw]

Thanks for the reply:

-- IMG Tag -
Thanks for the guideline on the use of the property property.
I really thought I covered the doc's but I guess that did not jump out at
me.  Now that I look back, you clearly state it at the top of the API docs.
". The original tags on occasion provide options that don't use the "name"
and "property" attributes. These uses will then fall outside the nested
context, and will most likely cause error. To take advantage of these
options, markup using the original tag for these cases."

My only issue:
The release of the nested  tags from  1.1b2 let you get away with some
nested tag "mis-use".
My problem with the IMG tag is not present on 1.1b2. My first thought is
that if any nested:tags  *may* fail without at least *name* or *property*
then the tag should indicate so.
I will admit that when building many pages, if the tag works and does not
complain I move on.
It seemed I got different errors with the nested:img tag:
Both were solve by replacing with the html:img tag, as you said.

javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: No getter method for property  of bean
taskListForm
 at
org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils.lookup(RequestUtils.java:881)
 at org.apache.struts.taglib.html.ImgTag.url(ImgTag.java:622)

and

javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Object must be of type Map
  at org.apache.struts.taglib.html.ImgTag.url(ImgTag.java:628)

  at 
org.apache.struts.taglib.nested.html.NestedImgTag.doEndTag(NestedImgTag.java:106)


So I guess in summary a message such as: "You must have at least one of
these properties: "
-- Radio Tag ---

 I should say again that the following file works under TC4.0.4/1.1b2
but not with the last nightly and TC4.0.4  ***

I use the radio button as in this file:

This first include works:

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




  Customer:
   


  Invoice:
  




This the include that gives the compile error in my previous email:

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




  All
  
  Open

Subject:Re: [NESTED-TAGS]Anyone using nested tags with the latest

Jeff,

I can fix the first problem with the  tag... don't use it. :P

Use the  tag instead. The error's coming through because of the
old nested mantra that if you don't want the "property" property to be
managed
and set, then use the original tags. You're using "pageKey" instead of the
name/property duo, and internally the nested tags are evaluating the
property
property to an empty string, and the attempting to dance.


As for the radio tag in the include file... it will depend on the context
of
where it's included in the parent file. Can I get a snippet of the tag
layout
that it's nesting against in the parent JSP?... it holds the key to the
problem. Once I have that detail, I may be able to get somewhere.

And there's nothing wrong with long emails. :)

Are the Struts tags including the Struts-EL going to deprecated?
Some applications in production will still use these tags,
especially for this concise XML writing forms, even though
they are JSTL.

What is the future of custom tags in Struts? Will you off-load
them to the JSTL and third party altogether or do intend
to support just a small subset like the Tiles and Validations
tags.

So it is not production ready. But it is exciting to see something now.
In Expresso we also have legacy tag libs, which really be upgraded
to JSTL and Expression Language support. So I be interested in your
views on the tag lib issues.

BTW: I got a Expresso Framework working Struts 1.1 beta 3 successfully.
I decided to use a plug-in and request processor configured from XML
config instead. It is a lot less hastle, and easy to write a README
document with instructions.

Struts & Tiles & Validator Logging

[Brown, Melonie S. - Contractor]

Title: Struts & Tiles & Validator Logging





I have noticed a number of posts by people asking how to restrict the logging for struts/tiles/validator and have noticed responses ranging from RTFM to detailed info with sample log4j properties files.  

Wishing to reduce the verbosity of the logs, I downloaded the latest log4j jar, added it in to my lib folder and to the project library, created a log4j.properties file and commons-logging.properties file and placed both into my src folder so they would be in my classpath (I'm using Eclipse, so it gets copied to the classes folder).  I used the properties files from Eddie Bush's posting (at the end of post), rebuilt my project, fired up Tomcat and *voila* the log messages continued to spew.  

Trying to cover all of my bases,  I went to the Struts website and looked under the FAQ's and HowTo's.  None of these documents address logging.  I then went to the User & Developer Guides.  Section 4.10 says that Struts uses commons logging and has a link to the commons section of the jakarta site, but no details on how to configure for Struts.

The Learning More About Struts section of the Jakarta site has a link to the BaseBeans NewsGroup version of the Struts mailing list - but the Basebeans server has been down since last fall, so the link doesn't work.  [Suggestion - change to news.gmane.org]. No wonder this question gets asked so frequently!  Anyway, what steps am I missing in configuring the logging?   I'm using Struts 11B3.

  If the only thing that's changed is the version of Struts you are using, we can

  We can take a few gumshoe steps.  One at a time:

* Use 1.1rc1 but remove the nested classes from the jar and place
  the (extracted) nested classes from 1.1b3 in your WEB-INF/lib.
  In this manner you are using 1.1b3 version of nested but 1.1rc1
  for everything else.
* Place the updated nested jar that Arron had posted

  I don't know if this has made it into any of the recent nightlies.
  If you use this jar, you can simply put it along with the struts.jar
  in the WEB-INF/lib.  This jar will be loaded first (since k < s)
* Last, but not least, I don't know if there have been any *feature*
  enhancements since 1.1b3, and even if there *are*, if you are

  Hope this gets you going.

I'm in dire need of some help on this.  I can't seem to figure out what has

RE: [Repost] Cannot Cast to Map

[Jerry Jalenak]

Sri,

Thanks for the reply.  I managed to track it to the  tag
actually. The way that the paramName attribute looks up its value has
apparently changed.  I switched back to using  and specifying the
actual bean name and property that I wanted and everything started working
again.

Thanks again.

Jerry

RE: JspException: Exception thrown by getter for property XXX of bean YYY?

[Chen, Gin]

Actually its in the same stack trace as what you posted but further down.
Make sure that you are looking at the console when getting the stack trace
and not the web page.
If you can't find it in the console then look into your log files.
I dont know if the root cause stack trace is application server specific but
either way, there should be something like it that will point you to a
better description of what caused the error.

Thanks for the responses. I'm obviously missing some basic JSP debugging
skills ;) Although I've been working on a "50% Struts" app for a year+ (i.e.
tons of scriptlet code in JSPs), I've only just started using Struts
properly with ActionForm's and taglibs so I'm still a noob when it comes to
debugging JSPs. 

When you say, "look further down the trace", do you mean the stack trace I
forwarded in my posting or some other stack dump? I don't see anything
labelled "root cause" in that trace.

We've had some additions to our production Struts app out for two months,

I've includded the getter method below. How could an exception be thrown by
this method? It should handle the case where previousUrl is null.

Re: How do you keep your session junk free?

[Sundar Narasimhan]

Over on another mailing list I'm on the consensus is that
continuation-style programming is much better than the present
approaches suggested by struts and other frameworks. In particular,
they solve the back button/refresh type problems much more cleanly
than other languages/frameworks.

As a Lisp programmer I find that appealing, and I just wish people in
the Java camp knew more about it.. here are a few links that I've been
suggested to follow up (I haven't had the time yet to fully evaluate
them :) Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be much by way of tool
support for these frameworks (yet).

Sharing resources among multiple Struts modules

[Moyer, Alan L]

Hi,

I'm working on an application where there are muliple Struts modules. In
each struts config file there is a  element with
parameter set to a property file containing resources for the module.
However, there are a number of properties that are common to all the
modules. 

Is is possible for each module to access multiple resource property files so
that common properties can be put into a single file which is then shared? I
haven't figured out how to do this so I've had to use a single property file
for all the modules which makes the file large and hard to share between
developers. If this is necessary, it seems to defeat some of the advantages
of using modules.

Thanks,

Al

The token approach is an easy solution.  One of the sites listed was a 
Smalltalk web framework.  It's good to look at things in different ways but 
you could probably count the number of Smalltalk web applications on one

Re: How do you keep your session junk free?

[Jose Gonzalez Gomez]

   Maybe what we need is an abstraction over the current request 
mapping stuff. If you think about it, what Struts basically does is 
mapping a request from a browser to some class that then executes a 
method (I know Struts has a lot more things, but this is the main one). 
Maybe we could go a step further, and think about wizards, page flows, 
data associated with those flows, and why not, set the bases for a 
direct translation from use cases to one of these abstractions.

   Please, don't take this as criticism to Struts. I think Struts is a 
great framework and I'm using it and will be using it in whatever J2EE 
project I do, but maybe we could start thinking a level above... what do 
you think?

It would be neat if you could group a bunch of action definitions

Employee information so that it could be inserted into a database.

You have a select options field created which displays the list of
departments and the user needs to select the appropriate one for the
Employee. Since the database cares about the department ID and not the
department name it makes sense to have the value for your options be
this "ID" and then you just display the department names from your
colleciton so that a typical option viewed as source would look like:

Accounting

Obviously I then have a form bean which will hold this department ID
when the form is submitted. 

The problem I run into though is that I often want to display back
confirmation information that might include the actual department name
the user selected (displaying the id would mean nothing to the user).

How do you guys accomplish this?

There are several ways I can accomplish it but none of them that I'm
aware of are very pretty.

Hi, if i've an a page that call an action if in this action i've an error how i return

Re: How do you keep your session junk free?

[Jose Gonzalez Gomez]

   I was thinking exactly about that... usually you could identify that 
bunch of actions as steps inside an use case of the system. The data 
collected inside that use case usually is useless outside that use case 
and is usually used to make a call to business logic sitting in EJBs, or 
business objects with JDO or whatever. (Wow, what a useful word, use). 
There could be some automated way to keep the data as far as you were 
inside those actions, and once the use case is finished, or the user 
aborts this use case and initiates another, the data could be deleted. 
For this to happen, beans should be associated to these "use cases", 
"groups", whatever you call it, instead of being associated to an action.

RE: Search result page with logic:iterate

Look at the display tag library at http://edhill.its.uiowa.edu/display-0.8/.  Some

http://sourceforge.net/projects/displaytag.

I'm sure this should help with your pagination needs.

Re: How do you keep your session junk free?

[Sloan Seaman]

I kinda have a class that does that if you want.

I have an Action called ChainAction that can call N number of actions in a
row and passes the same form and request info through all the actions.

The last action in the chain is then used to do a foward to whatever.

This is how I control all application flow via the struts-config file.

Example:
  
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
  

This action does security first (we have a custom system that does role
based security down to the action level).  If the user does not have access
it send them up the chain one step.  They continue up the chain till they
hit a point where they do have access.  This way we get them to ass deep as
they can go (get your mind out of the gutter). Anway..

The chains work by defining a PROPERTY_NAME that relates to an any element
in a form.  In this case, submit buttons.  If the user clicked "Do Delete"
it sends them to introSaveMessageAdd and then to deleteBitmap, and then to
the introAddPage.

This way my actions a very modular.

You can also do a DECHAIN which will run through the actions like normal but
the last one is treated as a seperate request and gets a new form and
request object (good for going from one form to another and not having bean
issues).

It also does other things like you can defined a message to put into the
session at the end of the chain, etc...

Anyway.. I can see if I can release the code if you want.

Re: [OT] Learning Curve Management or Confusions of a Newbie

[Jeff Smith]

I understand the problem of volume. I'm not suggesting that we try to index
the entire internet for all apache-related information.

I'm suggesting that we explore a mechanism that ensures that everything
hosted directly in the apache infrastructure be tagged at creation/posting
time so that an automated FAQ engine can index it on a more meaningful level
than a simple key-word search. I call it a key-question search.

Imagine the difference between searching the apache site for all documents
containing the words "logging", "ant" and "config". You would get spanked by
the number of hits.

But now consider how many responses you would get if you were searching the
site for all the QUESTIONS (in that "what questions are answered by what
documents" index) that contained those words. Suddenly your response volumes
go way down.

Furthermore, the site could tag each document with a "Add another question
answered by this document" feature that would allow people to log the
questions they are finding usefully answered by particular documents.

Such a system is not particularly complex. And it relies on existing
"business" processes to populate and manage the index, once the
comparatively simple engine is integrated.

I have created similar systems in the past for integration with help systems
in desktop software packages. It allows a corporate user to develop
context-specific help for their staff that is more directly relevant to
their business and job functions than a developer can possibly hope to
anticipate at help-writing time.

And when you think about it, one way to view the apache site infrastructure
is as a giant help system.

Hi,

 I have a action calls which populates the formbean and forward to JSP where I
can see the values but when I submit the jsp back to the same action the values
or lost.

 the jsp code is ( from the javasript I can see the values I print in the
alerts) and I get the value I set to "actionstr" in the action servlet but none
of the other values like "product_id" or "period_end_date".  What is wrong??

But if performance is a concern, shouldnt I user Struts as the front end
and then provide a mapping for all *.xml (or whatever other pattern I

Im sure there are more ways to skin this cat.

Want to stop tomcat's info messages from printing to console

[Scott Power]

I was wondering if there is a way to stop tomcat from printing its
messages to the console.  I know how to configure the log4j message from
within the application, by setting the level in the log4j.configuration
file but I still get message on the console like the ones below.  I
would like to stop these from showing up, I only want to see message
from my app and the fact that tomcat has started and stopped.  I tried
to change my CATALINA_OPTS variable in my CATALINA.bat file but I think
I might either have incorrect syntax or something, I am using win 2000,
with tomcat 4.1.  I have checked all my debug levels in the server xml,
web.xml both for tomcat and the app itself.  I know its not a really big
deal, but I want to make some clean log files for later use.  If anyone
has ideas I would like to hear them.

Once again thanks in advance.

Re: Sharing resources among multiple Struts modules

[Thomas CORNET]

   Don't worry, it's possible since struts 1.1 :)

   Two steps are needed :

a) in your struts-config.xml file (default module), you can declare several 
ressources files




in this example, you declare three ressources files, which are identified 
by the key parameter.

b) in your JSPs, just access them



just specify the bundle parameter to let struts access the right 
properties files.

If you define several ressources in your default module, all of them will 
be accessible by your modules.

 Thomas

BTW, has anyone succeeded in defining several resources files in the config 
of a module ?? I tried, but it doesn't seem to identify the bundle I 
provide in my JSPs...

Hi,

I'm working on an application where there are muliple Struts modules. In
each struts config file there is a  element with
parameter set to a property file containing resources for the module.
However, there are a number of properties that are common to all the
modules.
Is is possible for each module to access multiple resource property files so
that common properties can be put into a single file which is then shared? I
haven't figured out how to do this so I've had to use a single property file
for all the modules which makes the file large and hard to share between
developers. If this is necessary, it seems to defeat some of the advantages
of using modules.

RE: Struts and Cocoon Integration

[Don Brown]

Exactly.  When performance is key, you can have Struts use JSP directly.
Of course, with how the plugin is now, the request will still be sent to
Cocoon which would reject it.  As for the processing time it takes for
Cocoon to reject it, I don't know.  My guess is it would depend on whether
Cocoon was using compiled sitemaps or not.

Again, of course you could rewrite the plugin so it only processes
requests ending with "coc", but then you couldn't wrap existing struts
applications without modifying all the forwards in struts-config.xml.

RE: [OT] Learning Curve Management or Confusions of a Newbie

[Van Riper, Mike]

I think the Java Tutorial "trail" approach would be a good fit for this:

  http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/reallybigindex.html

For example, there already is a "Creating a GUI with JFC/Swing" trail:

  http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/index.html

Similar to this in concept, there could be a "Building a webapp with Struts"
trail. Granted, this may not belong in the "reallybigindex" maintained by
Sun because Struts is under the Apache umbrella. However, it might be time
to setup a "reallybigindex" for an online Apache Tutorial comprised of
trails similar to the way trails are used in Sun's online Java Tutorial.

Specifically with respect to learning Struts though, there is already a
significant amount of online learning material to be found directly or
indirectly from here:

  http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/learning.html

Still, I do see the value in having trails that organize some of the online
information in various trails to follow through this wealth of information.
I'm not sure how to go about initiating such a project at Apache, but, I am
willing to volunteer some time to contribute to the creation of a "Building
a webapp with Struts" trail. Does anyone else think this would be a good
idea? Anyone else interested in volunteering some time to build a Struts
trail? If there is enough interest, I would be glad to setup a separate
mailing list for further discussion among interested volunteers on creation
of this trail.

Thanks,
  Mike Van Riper

opener.location.reload(true)

[Søren Blidorf]

Hi.
It may be off topic!

In my STRUTS application I open a window and updates the db. After that
I use the opener.location.reload(true) to update the page that displays
the db values.

When I do that I get the normal alert that the page is being refreshed,
but normally when I use that code I do not get that alert.

Could it be the Tomcat or a STRUTS thing!!!

RE: How do you keep your session junk free?

[Joe Barefoot]

Does this model include a means of managing the session objects (I would assume yes, 
but didn't see anything to that effect)?  That is the real problem with wizards or 
wizard-like control flows.

I had cooked up a similar idea, but haven't implemented it yet, because all the 
wizards already had been built here using hidden fields to pass along values before I 
started.  I'll prolly test it out if we have another wizard come along.

In the idea outlined below, I'm using the single "parameter" attribute, but you could 
use the "set-property" attribs as well I guess...do these only exist in Struts 1.1?  
Note that the part at the bottom, "Extension", is something that I would definitely 
do...I just haven't reformated these notes yet.

In a nutshell:


Notes for a 1-per-session wizard framework:
1.  Use a single "wizard bag" in session, just an object that contains a hashtable 
plus identifying logical name for the wizard for which we are storing objects.
2.  Use the "parameter" attribute in action mapping to give logical name of wizard 
that this action is a part of, if it is a wizard action.  Action classes that are used 
both in and out of wizards should have multiple mappings-a mapping with a wizard 
parameter should be used only inside a wizard flow.
3.  In abstract action superclass, test to see if actionmapping's parameter has a 
value. 
4.  If parameter has no value, remove the wizard bag from the session if it 
exists, as we are no longer in a wizard.
5.  If parameter has a value:  If no wizard bag exists in session, create one with 
the parameter's value as the logical name.   If the wizard bag does exist in the 
session, see if it's logical name matches the parameter value-if it doesn't, remove 
the wizard bag and create a new one with the current parameter value, as we have 
jumped to a new wizard.
6.  Our abstract superclass will have protected methods to access the wizard bag, 
for use by wizard subclasses:  
storeWizardObject(String key, Object o);
getWizardObject(String key);
removeWizardObject(String key);

Extension:
Use a naming scheme for the parameter values in our wizard actionmappings:  
wizardName_step#.  For example:  createEmployee_1, createEmployee_2, etc.  We would 
use the same rules as above, except we would always create a new wizard bag in step 
one of the wizard (and drop the current one even if it already exists).  We would also 
verify that the wizard bag with our current wizard's logical name already exists in 
subsequent steps, and if it doesn't, forward to an exception page (because this means 
we either lost the wizard bag in the middle of the process due to another client 
browser's request (in the same session), or we jumped into the middle of the wizard 
somehow - see #2 above).  Having the step number may be useful for other purposes as 
well.

[Sundar Narasimhan]

Hi, Rick: CPS is a commonly accepted idiom for representing "what a
program does next" in your language. Some languages such as
Scheme (a lisp variant/dialect) have strong support for it.. 

In languages such as these.. you can actually write

   int x = 5;
   x = getValue1();
   y = getValue2();

where getValue1 and getValue2 display the appropriate pages etc., and when
the user hits the back button your program's state gets unwound to the
point where it should be.. w/out ANY extra coding! You as a coder
wouldn't have to write any code to "set" the variable x's value back
to what it was etc.

Obviuosly in languages w/out continuations and closures, people tend
to simulate them w/ tokens, inner classes etc., but these are VERY
POOR substitutes for these things. 

If you google those terms I'm sure you'll get enough hits to keep you
busy for a while (I personally learnt cps stuff when I worked w/ Jeff
Siskind's Screamer which augmented Lisp with non-deterministic
primitives :). I think some of the scheme papers wrt. continuations
are classics, and explain how you can do things like co-routines
etc. w/ them. Be prepared to bend your mind a lot though -- I've never
been able to teach continuations easily -- most programmers (me
included) who grew up with Fortran, Pascal and C etc. have a *very
hard* time grokking them initially. If you run across good
explanations that help you understand it, let me know.. I'm always
looking for new pedagogical tools for this. (I understand that both
Python and Ruby camps are investigating adding support for this sort
of thing :)

How are you setting your log4j.properties up?

I usually start out setting it up like:

log4j.rootCategory=ERROR, stdout
log4j.logger.startOfMyPackage=DEBUG, rolling

This makes sure errors go to stdout and I also set up a rolling file
appender for my application which logs everything in MyPackage and
below. (I won't get INFO messages from stuff the container sets up this
way).

If your ActionForm is set to scope="request" in your ActionMapping (this is the 
default if not specified, I believe), then yes, the ActionForm is on the 
HttpServletRequest.  When you submit from the JSP, the ActionForm will ONLY be 
populate with the values that were in the form that was submitted from the JSP.  So, 
yes, the ActionForm from the previous request is lost.

If you want to keep the data, either stick the ActionForm in session scope (not a good 
idea unless you are sure to remove it at some point), or use hidden fields on your 
forms to maintain data that will be re-populated into the ActionForm when you submit.



hope this helps,
Joe

If your ActionForm is set to scope="request" in your ActionMapping (this is
the default if not specified, I believe), then yes, the ActionForm is on the
HttpServletRequest.  When you submit from the JSP, the ActionForm will ONLY
be populate with the values that were in the form that was submitted from
the JSP.  So, yes, the ActionForm from the previous request is lost.

If you want to keep the data, either stick the ActionForm in session scope
(not a good idea unless you are sure to remove it at some point), or use
hidden fields on your forms to maintain data that will be re-populated into
the ActionForm when you submit.



hope this helps,
Joe

Very interesting, thanks for the information. Can this kind of behavior
be achieved though simply by hitting a "browser" back button? I wouldn't
think that would be possible without using javascript to resubmit the
page or to make sure a fresh page was always being looked at?

Sorry to drop in like that, but what is the problem with using Tokens?  
just doing a setToken() before you forward to a jsp page, then doing a 
isTokenValid() when the action is called, usually on page submit, is 
enough to stop anything.  Even if they click the back button then hit 
submit, won't work.  If they reload the page with the form, they get a 
new token since reloading calls the action which sent them to the page 
with the token in the first place.  So far it works for me, and in the 
isTokenValid() check I just forward to a 'you can't resubmit this page 
dorkie, or you'll give me headaches' page, and all is just fine... plus 
you can do it in different languages by putting the warning text in the 
resources.properties file.  what more is needed here?

Re: [OT] Learning Curve Management or Confusions of a Newbie

[Micael]

No, you are right.  This is an ongoing problem.  The truth is, however, I 
think, that there is no easy solution.  Java is easy enough to learn and 
open enough to all that there is just a lot there.  No way to change that.

At 01:05 AM 3/7/03 -0700, you wrote:
I have to confess, I'm a newbie. I've been a C/C++ programmer for 20 
years, but after dinking around for a few months with ASP, VBScript, PHP 
and a few other technologies, I decided that Java was the language to 
build my web apps in.

A month ago I was completely cold. Didn't know the first thing about any 
of this stuff. But I knew I wanted to learn it, so off I went, marching 
into the high weeds. First I had to learn Java. Then came servlets and 
JSPs and Tomcat. And along that path I also had to absorb Ant. And JUnit. 
And Log4J. And then there was a bunch of time lost exploring 
NetBeans/Eclipse/WebSphere before settling on JEdit as my environment of 
choice.

Then came Struts, and all the various taglibs. An experiment with Cayenne. 
And Cactus. And god-knows what else I've explored.

And through it all, I am continually amazed at the strength and breadth of 
the resources and support available. And equally frustrated by it. I can 
never remember where I saw a particular bit of information. So when I 
finally learn enough to understand what Ted was talking about in his 
monograph on Connection Pooling, I can't remember where I saw it.

And when I want to learn enough about EJBs to figure out if I need to care 
about them, or if they are relevant to my planned project, I have to wade 
through another day of voluminous coverage before I have enough of a 
handle on what they are to make some intelligent guesses about where to 
look next.

My point is that I believe the Apache/Java/Struts/... universe is quickly 
reaching a point where its very breadth is becoming a barrier to entry for 
people who don't have a couple of months to devote to bootstrapping themselves.

Is there any thought being given to creating a higher-level resource 
interface that could serve as a single point of reference for all things 
Apache? (I realize that "all things java" would be going way too far.) As 
a simple solution, if every document in the Apache infrastructure had a 
meta tag that listed the questions answered by the document, then a very 
powerful, automated FAQ could be maintained. And such a system would make 
it much easier (I believe) to find things quickly than simply searching 
the site for key words.

This may not be the best (or only) solution, but I do believe that for all 
the very specific support and discussions there are, there is really very 
little over-view material to assist newcomers or people looking for 
information outside of their core area.

Or maybe I'm the only one who feels overwhelmed by it all. :-)

RE: crazy error

[Rajesh . Jayabalan]

Hi,

  The scope to session until I have finished testing..

  The feild in the jsp page are directly related to the field int he formbean..
so on submitting it should be populated automatically.. which is not happening.

 I found this is because I of conversionexception  so when I created a servlet
extending actionservlet and

public void init() throws ServletException
  {
super.init();
ConvertUtils.register(new BigDecimalConverter(null),
java.math.BigDecimal.class);
  }

added the above method the problem has disappeared.

If your ActionForm is set to scope="request" in your ActionMapping (this is the
default if not specified, I believe), then yes, the ActionForm is on the
HttpServletRequest.  When you submit from the JSP, the ActionForm will ONLY be
populate with the values that were in the form that was submitted from the JSP.
So, yes, the ActionForm from the previous request is lost.

If you want to keep the data, either stick the ActionForm in session scope (not
a good idea unless you are sure to remove it at some point), or use hidden
fields on your forms to maintain data that will be re-populated into the
ActionForm when you submit.



hope this helps,
Joe

Re: Want to stop tomcat's info messages from printing to console

[Dave Patton]

Yes.  You set this in the server.xml file of tomcat with the 
entry.  Check your server.xml file and I will bet you are using a
ConsoleLogger at some level.  Change those to FileLogger types instead. 
Check the Tomcat docs
(http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/logger.html) for
more info.
