Programmatic Security

[Renato Romano]

I'm going to use the servlet security capability for enabling users to
authenticate and work on my application, that is defining roles and
secuirty constraints in web.xml. In some cases i'd want to show some
links based on this security info, that is accessible via the
request.isUserInRole() method. How to use struts tags to test this ?
Thanks

Re: [OT]Re: quick log4j question

[Manfred Wolff]

No, Rick, I don't. I have said: Put it in ANY directory, that contains 
to the classpath. It is a good Idea to build a group of property-files 
e.g. in WEB-INF/classes/ressources or any other directory.

But I don't know why evrybody will have a configuration in web.xml and a 
 initialisation in the Actionsservlet. That is not need.

So you are saying (in response to Dan's question) that it is best to
just keep the log4j.properties file in WEB-INF/classes and to not try
and move it to somewhere like WEB-INF/classes/resources ?

Re: [Design Pattern]FormBean in Model Layer

[Jin Bal]

If you don't wnat to be tied to the DynaBean api either you could defin your
own custom DTO interface that defines the data that your model layer
requires.

then you could have your ActionForm implement your custom interface.  Then
you could just pass the action forms into the layer as the custom interface.

Your model layer wont know (or care) that your using an actionform all it
cares about is the DTO interface.

i.e your application deosn't know about struts but struts knows about your
application

might make things easier.

parsing xml that contains hebrew using xerces

[Yaron Sela]

Hi all.

Does someone know about parsing xml that contains hebrew, using xerces?

I tried the encode: windows-1255, Cp1255 and it still returned question
marks.

my method:

  protected static Document readXmlFile(String fileName) throws
XmlManagerException{
DOMParser p = new DOMParser();

try {
  FileInputStream fis = new
FileInputStream(RESOURCES_FINALS_DIR+"/"+fileName);

p.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/allow-java-encodings",true);
  p.parse(new InputSource(fis));
} catch(Exception e) {
  throw new XmlManagerException(MessageFinals.XML_NOT_FOUND);
}
return p.getDocument();
  }

!! Can anyone recommend me of xerces mailing list.
thanks for your time.

Hi,

I have divided the modules(logical) in my application in a Tab layout. I
want to show different pages under the same tab at various points in the

whole putList tag again in the extended definition. Is this right or is
there a better way?
 

 It is right, the list itself is not extended ;-(. This is an 
enhancement request. I am not sure if it is already in bugzilla.Feel 
free to add it or vote for it.

I have created a bean in which I keep values for links to display in each
tab and modify them at runtime in my Action classes. I put that bean in
session and copy its properties to the TilesContext in the controllerClass
actions. The problem is that this design is not very easy to maintain and
enhance. Also I get the values mixed up in the session which makes the user
go to a wrong page sometimes. And the layout code is all over the place
instead of a single, configurable one (like the XML file).
Is this the right design I have? Any suggestions/solutions?

 In tiles examples I use the following for a user customized menu:

   * A definition contain the attributes for the menu, with a list of
 default items to show.
   * The controller  try to retrieve a customized list of items (from
 the session, but could be from a persistent storage)
 o If the list isn't found, get the one defined in the tile
   context from the definition, copy it and store it
   appropriately in the session. So, the list in the definition
   is used to initialize the default values !
   * Replace the list in the tile context with the customized one
   * Return from the controller and show the tile
 In this scenario, the definition is used to defined the default 
values. So, the management still centralized in the xml file. The 
controller is used to prepare appropriately the data to show.

Hope this help,

Re: [Tiles] Localization Using Extended Tiles Definitions

[Cedric Dumoulin]

 Hi,

Paul Hodgetts wrote:

Should I be able to do the following localization using
extended tiles definitions?
In tiles-defs.xml:













 You need a .page.local definition in this file too. This file is used 
as default when the locale can't be resolved. In your case, when the 
locale is not de_DE. So, this file must be able to be fully resolved by 
itself.

In tiles-defs_de_DE.xml:






 This is ok. When the locale is de_DE, this definition will be used in 
place of the definition with the same name in the default config file.

In other words, there is a common base page across all the
locales.  Each local adds a locale-specific menu to every
page.  Then there are the variety of specific pages that
add their unique content.
Does this make sense? 
 Yes, in your localized files, just rewrite the definition that need to 
be rewritten.

Is this the right way to do this, or
is there some other way to accomplish this? 
 This is the right way to do, but don't forget that you need a default 
configuration file. This later should be fully resolvable when it is 
read by the definition factory. This mean that all ancestor definitions 
must be accessible in the file, or in one of the file specified in the 
factory config.

 In Tiles, there is one factory for each matching locale (a matching 
locale = there exist a file with appropriate suffix for the locale). The 
factory is loaded when the locale is encountered. File loading follow 
the java i18n rule: The default file is loaded, then it is overloaded by 
files with the same name and a local matching i18n suffix.

 Cedric




Right now, I'm getting an error saying that it can't find a
definition for .page.local, but I may be doing something
else wrong.

Re: how to catch exception using tiles thrown by e.g. org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesUtilStrutsModulesImpl.doInclude

[Cedric Dumoulin]

 Hi,

 This design have been chosen in order to not penalize an entire page 
when only one tile fail. With this design, the page is shown correctly, 
and the faulty tile report an error.
 What is missing in this design is a way to customize what should 
happen in case of error. This is an enhancement request to be added to 
bugzilla (or vote for it if it already exist).

Insert Tag(commented out is your code, underneath that is what i want -
throw new JspException(ex.getMessage())) :

Looking at Geary´s template insert tag, he always chose to do "throw new
JspException(ex.getMessage());".
Your logic displays by default a simple stack trace(Exception type and
exception message) of where the tile should be. I dont want to show that
to my customer, but as i said, i have no change to display my  jsp-error
page instead.  

So if that "feature" is not here for any other reason, i consider that
being a unlucky design for me, because i have to at least vesion my own
tiles.jar or do some dirty subclassing your tag.
I would appreciate your comment.

When an error page is also indicated in the web.xml

You as a more experienced one than myself, does it make some sense to
the issue?
   

 This make sense: Your page is made of several tiles. The first ones 
have already been compute, and so some outputs have been flushed. Then, 
one of the  throw an exception. This exception is not catched

by the jsp mechanism because the output stream has already been flushed

I suppose that your exception is thrown by a  tag
   

in
 

a jsp.
This exception is thrown by the tiles framework, which know nothing 
about the struts exception mechanism, so it can't be used. The
   

exception
 

is then propagated by the tag handler and reach the jsp page (the tile 
jsp). If there is an exception handler associated to the jsp, it is 
called, if there is no handler, the exception is propagated to parent 
page inserting this one. If the parent page have inserted the child
   

page
 

with an , then the  catch the exception and show
   

it.
 

Normally, the jsp exception handling should work, but it appear that it
   

 

is not always the case.

A workaround is to put a big try/catch in the jsp throwing the 
exception ;-(. This will be improved in future versions.

struts without JSP for global exception handling

[alana]

Hi
I am using the global Exception tag in the Struts-xml.config file.

   

   

Since my resposes are xsl files,I needed to know if i can manage to put in an error 
message into the html page .


the architecture uses struts framework for request ..but in the response uses 
XMLServlet engine ...to parse a xsl template and xml data instead of jsp and formbean.

so the action config  looks like this :=






Now for displaying an error message on the login page i needed to know using resource 
bundle (the key attibute) can i parse using the xmlservlet engine??
Is there any better method not using JSP??

RE: bean:define and el tags

[Mohan Radhakrishnan]

Hi,
Answering my own question.

  The code to check if an indexed property is null or not in Struts
1.0.2/JSTL seems to be so long. I am  just using two date checks here. This
seems to be so even if we use JSTL. I think that this type of logic is quite
commonplace in web projects.

 Should it be so complex ? Am I making it so complex? It works anyway.

Hi

   I am trying to use simple if-else logic here.

   If my indexed property in the form returns null, I use the current date.

Does anyone know how to suppress the leading '/' in strutsmenu.
 
Does anyone know how to get the menu to remember it's position if the target

[Chonalal, Anil (Contractor)]

I have problem in that I have a form with text fields that are dynamically generated 
depending on a list, for example:

Now when the form is submitted I only get one parameter with the name attrValue, but I 
need to get values of every single text field on the form, does anyone know how to do 
this.

Cheers.

Re: editable list using nested:iterate and lazyList

This is exactly what I am doing. It must be a version issue. I am using struts 1.0.2

Alex,

The JSP wasn't shown probably because it's like all other Struts table
creation using the iterate tag. Example JSP...



  



  



...when submitted, if you're "student bean" is in a LazyList, then it'll
populate correctly, and all the data will be there for your action for processing.

This what you're after?...

RE: [Design Pattern]FormBean in Model Layer

[Robert Taylor]

Is being tied to the DynaBean API that bad. Seems like it, along with the
entire beanutils package, is a great tool. Why write custom DTO interfaces
when you could simply leverage DynaActionForm or DynaValidatorActionForm
which both implement the DynaBean interface. Then use the beanutils package
to "transform" the data? (I think its about 2 very powerful lines of code).
You avoid writing classes for each form. You just configure them (with their
initial state) in the struts-config file.

This approach also reinforces the concept that ActionForms are view
components and don't belong in the model.
If the original intent was for ActionForms to be part of the model, then
they would have been designed as interfaces, but Craig has voiced his stance
on this many times already, and is adamant about keeping the ActionForm in
the view and out of the model.

I believe you would find a best practices strategy would be to use
DynaForm where you can and either in the Action class or an intermediate
service layer, transform the data to the appropriate DTO objects which can
then be passed to the the model/logic layer for processing.

I would use the tools that are out there when you can...especially when they
are free.


My 2 cents.

Slightly more OT, but is one complete html page considered a request or

Re: [OT] Simulating Concurrent Users

[Nicolas De Loof]

All scr="" HTML tags does submit a new request (images, link to css or
included javascript).

With servlet API you will get a new request object (and context) for
every request.

For into, HTTP 1.1 browser can ask server to keep the connection
alive, so that it can reuse the 1st connection for a new request, (->
less network trafic). This makes no change on servlet API behaviour.

Dynamic javascript confirmation

[Renato Romano]

I'm trying to write a confirmation alert on a field of a table; I have a
"delete" button (or image) and what I'd want to do is ask confirmation
to the user via a "confirm()" javascript call after which (if user
confirms) I have to redirect to something like "deleteObj.do?id=6" page,
where 6 is the id of the object to delete.

It seems that  inside javascript code does not work, so I'm
in trouble when managing the redirect from javascript, because I have to
pass it the id to use for the deleting action, but the bean:write does
not work!!

I'm sure this is quite a standard processing...
Thanks a lot.

Not at all - I regularly use beanutils the way you outline above ;-)
Some people might want to define custom dto interfaces to provide their
domain services/delegates with a distinctive (and typed ?) contract for
getting parameters etc.

I quite agree, which is why I suggested that ActionForms (or indeed
subclasses of dynaforms etc ) would *implement the domain* rather than the
domain implementing or knowing about struts or beanutils (which is bad and
one of the reasons actionforms are not an interface).
By doing it this way around I dont think that ActionForms are becoming part
of the model, quite the reverse, in fact we're telling struts a little bit
more about our domain model, which I don't think is altogether evil.

I agree that seems like a good way to approach it :)

RE: struts-menu

[Raible, Matt]

Edgar,

I'm a committer on struts-menu, so hopefully I can help you out.

I believe using the "location" attribute vs. "page" attribute will strip out
your context and use the exact value you specify in "location" rather than
pre-pending the context.

As for remembering the position - which layout are you using?  I can
possibly add the remembering functionality, but it will probably involve
cookies or something.

Dynamic forward and recursion in Action's execute method

[Rick Ashley]

Hello,

I have a own DispatchAction based class that should add more parameter's
dynamically to URI at runtime. Problem is that if I try to create a new 
ActionForward instance  e.g. /my/app/myaction?method=doIt&p=100 with a new 
parameter, programs starts to run in recursion.

I want to do this so dynamically that I don't need struts-config.xml
to get a handle to ActionForward objects or anything else. So, is this 
possible in Struts or what I am doing wrong? I use Struts's version 1.1 b2.

Below is sample code of my own DispatchAction class

- r.i.a

public class MyDispatchAction extends DispatchAction
{
// Overrided execute-method
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,
 ActionForm form,
 HttpServletRequest request,
 HttpServletResponse response)
throws java.lang.Exception
{
  // getPath() returns e.g. /app/action.do?method=SomeAction
  String uriPath = mapping.getPath();
  StringBuffer sParams = new StringBuffer();
  // Adding another parameter dynamically.
  sParams.append(addParam(uriPath,
   "myParam",
   "110"));
  ActionForward fwd =
new ActionForward(sParams.toString());
  return fwd;  // Causes recursion!
}
// Toolmethod by T.Husted
public String addParam(String path, String name, String value)
{
  StringBuffer uri = new StringBuffer(path);
  boolean isQuery = (path.indexOf("?") >= 0);
  if (isQuery)
  uri.append("&");
  else
  uri.append("?");
  uri.append(name);
  uri.append("=");
  uri.append(value);
  return uri.toString();
}
}

Struts bean:define tag questions

[White, Joshua A (CASD, IT)]

Ok,

Imagine I have an object "User" (package test.UserVO) which contains another
object "Address" (package test.AddressVO)which has a String property "city".
"User" and "Address" are both java beans.  "User" has been placed in session
scope as "UserVO".

Oracle Data Source Config

[Austin Lowry]

I've hit a bump in the road with my development because I have to be 
able to use an Oracle connection in order to use a class vital to my 
application. This made my Weblogic connection pool unusable because it 
uses it's own connection objects that use the Oracle driver. I think my 
best option at this point is to use the Struts . Does 
anyone have any experience with using Oracle and 
OracleConnectionPoolDataSource or OracleConnectionCacheImpl? I'm not 
really sure how to set this up and make sure I get back an Oracle 
connection object that I can use. Also, is there a better way to 
implement the connection pool and still return an Oracle connection 
object than through Struts? Thanks for your help.

Normally I just configure a log4j.properties file so I don't run into
this problem, but on a small demo app I just created I didn't. Even
when I add the following to the server.xml file, I still get all the

RE: bean:define and el tags

[Karr, David]

You're missing an important point about the JSTL tags.  The tags that
store information into variables don't put them into scriptlet
variables, they put them into "scoped variables", which are just HashMap
entries.  If you use "fmt:formatDate" to store a formatted date into
"currentdate", you can't reference it with "<%=currentdate%>".

If you're using the JSTL with Struts, you're probably better off using
Struts-EL, as the Struts-EL tags use the JSTL EL for attribute values,
instead of scriptlet expressions.

RE: getPathInfo with Struts/Resin?

[Kevin Tung]

Hi,

I haven't received any response on this issue.  I assume this has not been
done or cannot be done with Resin/Struts or with struts and any other
container.  Or perhaps I should post to a different list altogether?

Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!!

Hi,

I have searched the archives and the newsgroups but couldn't find an answer
that applies to my specific environment, hopefully someone here has done
this before.

I am running Struts 1.1b3 (didn't work with 1.1b2 either) with Resin 2.1.6

I want to be able to do the following

www.somehost.com/myapp/execute/edit/username/
www.somehost.com/myapp/execute/view/username/

where view and edit will map to different Actions.  And within each action,
I want to be able to retrieve the username by using getPathInfo().

in my web.xml

  
action
/execute/*
  

in my struts_config.xml




But when I point the browser to

www.somehost.com/myapp/execute/edit/username/ I end up with a

400 Invalid path /edit/username/

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

400 Invalid path /

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
gotten this scenario to work with Struts and Resin? or even another
container?  Some config samples would be very helpful!!

Thanks,
Kevin

The Back button on on multi-page forms

Anyone have any ideas or best practises on how to handle the use (mis-use)
of the browser back button on multi-page forms.

My forms work fine and validate Ok, but if the back button is used the forms
are not re-populated properly. In particular anything that was in the reset,
seems to be used when the form appears after the back button is used.

Hi Dave

I have tried a few more options now..

 I am able to get one value from the mfform in the second action class..
MffsActionForm is the actionform for the second action class, will that affect
it to reset values. If that is the case then all values should be reset to null,
but I can get one value.

 I have for now set the required values in the request(when in the first action

Hola,

Man, you have sturdy fingers! Ever think of using shorter variable names
and a slightly clearer coding style?! :)

// segment 1
updatedel(actionForm, action);
HttpSession session = httpServletRequest.getSession();

// What do you think is happening here?
MffsActionForm mfform = (MffsActionForm) session.getAttribute
("mffsActionForm");
//session.removeAttribute("mffsActionForm");
//session.setAttribute("mffsActionForm", mfform);

String tablename = mfform.getTables();

httpServletRequest.setAttribute("mffsactionflag", "true");
return actionMapping.findForward("success");

// segment 2
HttpSession session = httpServletRequest.getSession(false);
String flag = (String)httpServletRequest.getAttribute("mffsactionflag");
if ((flag != null) && (flag.length() > 0)) {
mfform = (MffsActionForm) session.getAttribute("mffsActionForm");
} else {
mfform = (MffsActionForm) actionForm;
}
String tablename = mfform.getTables();

Really, though, everything looks fine, so I'd either look elsewhere for
the problem or clean things up a little so you can make sure that you're
doing what you think you are.

If the form was in session and you're not forwarding to an action that
would reset form values, it should all be okay. I'd make sure that
whatever it is you're forwarding to isn't thinking that it needs to set
up the form.

I gorgot to add, rr_lesson_3_lot.txt is created add log information is
appended to it. The problem is all the beanutils validation stuff still
goes to catalina.out for this application. Is there anyway around having
to configure log4j and creating a log4j.properties file to prevent this?

Two problems: bean:include and return errors

If I use in index.jsp




 doesn't work in login.jsp. I put
bean in Action.

 only works in index.jsp.

But with <[EMAIL PROTECTED] file="login.jsp"%> it's works!?

Why is that?

-

I have in LoginActionForm for login.jsp

ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
if (name.equals("")) {
errors.add("name", new ActionError("name"));  }
return errors;

and this in LoginAction

if (form.getName().equals("x")) {
errors.add("name", new ActionError("badName"));
saveErrors(httpServletRequest, errors);
return actionMapping.getInputForward();

This works OK, but didn't return to index.jsp it return to login.jsp.
I get only login.jsp form not index.jsp - whole page

*index.jsp include login.jsp

Thanks.

If you are using ClassLoader.getResource() to load resources from inside
the class path (which I imagine that Log4J is doing), there is a very
definite difference between putting the properties file in
"/WEB-INF/classes" and "/WEB-INF/classes/resources" -- one will be found
and one will not.

The reason for this is that resource file names have a path structure just
like Java class names in a package -- to retrieve the resource file
"/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties", one would say:

  ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
  InputStream is = cl.getResourceAsStream("log4j.properties");

but, if you want "/WEB-INF/classes/resources/log4j.properties", you would
say this instead:

  ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
  InputStream is = cl.getResourceAsStream("resources/log4j.properties");

The right place to put your properties files, then, is wherever the
software that is loading them will look for them :-).

I do *not* agree with the idea of using an ActionForm (either DynaForm or
not) as a DTO.  Using a custom interface gets around one of the problems
(introducing a dependency on Struts), but not around the biggest one --
the data types in a correctly written ActionForm are wrong for the
business tier.

In order to fulfill its purpose, the ActionForm properties must allow
incorrect input to be redisplayed -- for example, a field that accepts an
integer should allow the user to type "1a3" instead of "123" and have
"1a3" redisplayed with the error message.  In order for this to work, the
ActionForm property must be a String.  Yet, in a properly designed DTO,
the property type would be "int".

The best design practice is to create a separate DTO object (or DynaBean)
with the correct data types, and use BeanUtils.copyProperties() to copy
the values -- with appropriate conversions -- in your Action that accepts
the form.  You know that you won't get conversion errors because they
would have been caught in the validation checks that preceed calling the
Action.

RE: getPathInfo with Struts/Resin?

[Kris Schneider]

Having never used Resin, I'm in no position to comment on what can or can't be
done with it. However, it seems like you're using path info where a request
parameter would be a better fit. It sounds like "username" is actually dynamic,
so it might really be "jim" or "bob" or "jimbob", right? So that you'd have:

www.somehost.com/myapp/execute/edit?username=jimbob
www.somehost.com/myapp/execute/view?username=jimbob

In fact, from a Struts perspective, I'm pretty sure that the additional path
info will cause it to fail when it attempts to find a matching path for an
action mapping.

Sorry for my ignorance here but by software do you mean the servlet

RE: struts-menu

[Edgar Dollin]

Thanks Matt:

I didn't find the location bit until after your message, so I submitted a
patch to test the page for https, http, mailto, & ftp so please ignore.

I submitted a patch for DropDownMenuDisplayer.java which outputs a trailer
message after a menu block.  This allowed me to write the javascript to
'toggle' the menu position based on a cookie set in the toggle function.  

It was a mind bender to write javascript in a properties file.  I would have
submitted the javascript but it was based on an external script for reading
and writing the cookies.  If you want it, I'll rework the js in the
properties file to stand alone.

Thanks again

I only get errors like this when I forget to include

No, by "software" I mean whatever software is going to read that
particular properties file.  In the particular case of "log4j.properties",
the container does not care whether or not you are going to load this
resource or not -- you have to check the Log4J docs to see where it wants
the "log4j.properties" to be loaded from.

If it says "put the log4j.properties file in a directory that is on your
classpath", you can translate that to mean "/WEB-INF/classes", because (in
effect) that is the directory that the container puts on your "class path"
for you.  It's Log4J, not the container, that actually tries to load this
file.

RE: getPathInfo with Struts/Resin?

[Owen Medd]

We discovered the limit of the action mapping capability early on with
one project I was doing and actually wrote a new mapper that matched
based on subsets of the full pathinfo string.  We ended up not using
struts for that project, but enhancing the action map matching was
pretty useful.  Our big problem was using something that was not part of
the core struts distribution and it was apparent our changes were far
too late to make into a possible 1.1 feature.

OT Filename using file download within an action

[Roland Berger]

Hi all

Craig has described in the thread "File upload/download design question" how
to download a file from within an action. Others have described how to set
the Header so that the browser is promting for the right filename:

response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=\"" +
myFileName+ "\";");

The later does not work with netscape version 7 ( it does work with IE 6 ).
In the popup, the browser suggests  the filename like this: .do
. One year has passed by since and world has become more clever (sometimes I
think the opposite). Is there a more definitv guide to suggest the filename
of the download?

Thank's
Roland

RE: struts-menu

[Edgar Dollin]

Struts menu works nicely with struts, i.e. you add a plugin to read your
configuration files.  It uses xml and property files for menu configuration.
It can use javascript or not and works with CoolMenus.  There are a couple
of jsp tags which actually insert the menu so your jsp files stay really
clean.  The things I like best about it is that the menu positions are
relative (at least the simple and drop down displayers), i.e. you don't have
to put pixel positions in your code and the menu config just has information
actually relevant to the menu, i.e. url, description, and a tooltip.

[Q] Bug in bean:message?

[Jeff Smith]

I've created a generic message page that shows a message to my users based
on a request parameter.

I've created a jsp tile to encapsulate this behavior which looks like this:

<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-bean" prefix="bean" %>







My application.properties has the following two lines in it:
pages.testmessage.title=Test Message Page
pages.testmessage.message=Congratulations! You have found the test
message page.

But when I try to invoke the page, I get the following error thrown:
2003-03-09 10:05:25 StandardWrapperValve[jsp]: Servlet.service() for
servlet jsp threw exception
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Missing message for key
pages.testmessage.title

It took me a long time to figure this out. If you look very closely at the
4th line in the jsp file, you'll see an errant space inside the .title
literal. Obviously it is very hard to see the trailing space in the error
log. Should the message keys be Trim'd before their dereferenced? Or is this
a behavior that is sometimes useful? At the very least, quotes around the
key name in the log would make the trailing space more visible.

Sort a collection in alphabetic order

Hi.
I need to sort my collection "people" in alphabetic order by lastname,
firstname.
Can anybody help me?

I guess I should do it in the Action and not when displayed in jsp page.



Collection people = new ArrayList();

while( rs.next() ) {
PeopleBean pb = new PeopleBean();
pb.setId(rs.getInt("ID"));
pb.setFirstname( rs.getString( "FIRSTNAME" ));
pb.setLastname( rs.getString( "LASTNAME" ));
}

people.add( pb );

Hey,

On a lot of other lists there's a monthly/weekly (or, in our case,
perhaps hourly ;) FAQ posted. Would it make any sense to create a very
short FAQ that's either sent out on subscription or posted automagically
every n days?

Most algorithm books will give you more information than you want on

Why not just do it in the query and let the db do it?

Re: Nested tag problem

[David Graham]

We already provide FAQ pages on the Struts site.  Unfortunately, this 
particular issue wouldn't benefit from an FAQ because users assume it's a 
problem with the tag instead of their usage of it.

Hey,

On a lot of other lists there's a monthly/weekly (or, in our case,
perhaps hourly ;) FAQ posted. Would it make any sense to create a very
short FAQ that's either sent out on subscription or posted automagically
every n days?

Most algorithm books will give you more information than you want on
sorting.

Why not just do it in the query and let the db do it?

RE: getPathInfo with Struts/Resin?

[Kevin Tung]

Hi Kris,

The examples I had given are simplified (probably too much so).

In practice, we need to allow search engine to be able to index the site
correctly.  Some of the search engines we work with have issues with "?" and
query strings in general.  Also in our app, the extra path info is used to
indicate content.

www.somehose.com/myapp/homepagelayout/file1.jsp

So it is not really dynamic, in that sense.

I see your point about additional path info causing action mapping to fail.
Looks like it's just not possible with struts, regardless of container.  I
suppose I will have to use a filter to pre-process the request.

Thanks
Kevin

Having never used Resin, I'm in no position to comment on what can or can't
be
done with it. However, it seems like you're using path info where a request
parameter would be a better fit. It sounds like "username" is actually
dynamic,
so it might really be "jim" or "bob" or "jimbob", right? So that you'd have:

www.somehost.com/myapp/execute/edit?username=jimbob
www.somehost.com/myapp/execute/view?username=jimbob

In fact, from a Struts perspective, I'm pretty sure that the additional path
info will cause it to fail when it attempts to find a matching path for an
action mapping.

Re: Sort a collection in alphabetic order

[nash e. foster]

You could have your PeopleBean implement Comparable, which is pretty 
easy, and then use TreeSet to create a sorted set using your compareTo 
method.

I guess I should do it in the Action and not when displayed in jsp

Collection people = new ArrayList();

while( rs.next() ) {
PeopleBean pb = new PeopleBean();
pb.setId(rs.getInt("ID"));
pb.setFirstname( rs.getString( "FIRSTNAME" ));

Faq Question: Can I use bean output as a property of another bean?
  Answer: No.

Or, alternately:

Common Bean Issues:

1) You can't use the output of one bean as input to another, i.e.
   

There might be FAQ pages all over, but people ask the same questions on
the list, that's all I'm saying, and it seems like we could at least
minorly cut down the S/N ratio with a 10-30 question FAQ that's
tragically simple to read and understand.

Just an idea.

It uses the org.apache.regexp package, so I'd imagine anything it
supports.

JavaServer Faces - Is it OK to use it now?

[Mete Kural]

Hello,

I'm beginning a new Struts-based web application
project and I would really like to use JavaServer
Pages in it. I know that there are notices
recommending not to use the current early access
implementation for production environments. I am just
beginning this project so I'm thinking it will take me
about a month or a little more to finish it. Would you
recommend me to use JavaServer Faces in this project?
Do you think it is likely that there will be another
early access release that is more suitable for
production environments in this time frame?

Thanks,
Mete

Validating conditionaly required fields?

[Greg Hess]

Hi All,
 
I am adding some new validation to a form that is currently being
managed by the validation framework. My form has several properties that
are now optional. The user is to supply a URL and a corresponding label.
The user has the option to enter 1-6 Label/URL combinations. I need to
require a label/URL entry only if a value has been added for one of the
pair. I have read in the documentation that there is new support for
conditionaly required fields but I am having difficulty understanding
how it works and how to implement. The example shown here
  shows a
form defined in struts-config.xml containting a property of type
org.apache.struts.webapp.validator.Dependent[] and a entry in the
validation.xml that uses some conditional evaluations on a form field as
shown below.
 
If you have this in your struts-config.xml 




 
You can define a validation: 
 

 

  
  
field[0]
lastName
  
  
field-indexed[0]
true
  
  
field-test[0]
NOTNULL
  

 
Could anyone help explain how to use the
org.apache.struts.webapp.validator.Dependent[] and the
"indexedListProperty" to provide the functionality I require?
 
Many thanks,
 
Greg

Re: Regular Expressions

[Dave Patton]

Not that I have seen per se.  There is a site that has some pre-built
regexs but Im sorry I cant remember the URL.  Your best bet is to go buy
the Oreilly book "Mastering Regular Expressions"  It is pretty much the
bible of regex and well worth the investment.

Re: JavaServer Faces - Is it OK to use it now?

[Mete Kural]

Thanks for you advice.

Do you have any vague estimates on how long it will
take JSF to become suitable for Struts-based
production applications?

a) 2-3 months
b) 4-6 months
c) 6-12 months
d) more than 1 year

Thanks,
Mete

Hi.
I need to sort my collection "people" in alphabetic order by lastname,

Can anybody help me?
I guess I should do it in the Action and not when displayed in jsp page.



Collection people = new ArrayList();

while( rs.next() ) {
PeopleBean pb = new PeopleBean();
pb.setId(rs.getInt("ID"));
pb.setFirstname( rs.getString( "FIRSTNAME" ));
pb.setLastname( rs.getString( "LASTNAME" ));

people.add( pb );

RE: The Back button on on multi-page forms ??????

[apachep2]

If someone still think token is hard to understand, let me elaborate it
a bit. For my application, what I am doing is

1. saveToken in my load action
2. Load page, struts will automatically puts a hidden field on the page.
3. Click button
4. In my action class, I check isTokenValid
5. If invalid, I reload page with error message blah blah.
6. If valid, I proceed and resetToken.

Maybe I'm dumb, but it is not apparent to me how the "token" is used to make
the back button post the correct form information.

KDE 3.1 has an awesome regular expression GUI editor, good for
people just learning how to create them.  One thing to watch out
for:

In the validator, Perl regular expressions are used.  Normally, when
you make a Perl regular expressions you have to use a delimiter,
which is typically '/'

However, in the validator definition file, you can exclude the
delimiter as the validator automatically adds it for you.  However,
this means that you must escape and instance of '/' in your regular
expression.

I have filed a bug report about this in bugzilla because the
validator should automatically escape any delimiter used in the
definition file so that this "ghost" delimiter does not have to be
accounted for.

In short, I mean

The following would be accepted:

mask
^http://[^ ]*$

instead of the current syntax

mask
^http:\/\/[^ ]*$

Since behind the scenes the regexp becomes

/^http:\/\/[^ ]*$/

I rest my case.

Dan

RE: Sort a collection in alphabetic order

[David Haynes]

Since you are in a while(rs.next()) context, why not sort on insertion?
Just pop your results into a Vector (or other collection) in sort-order.
Depending upon the number of elements expected, you could speed the
insertion using a number of methods. If your lists are relatively small,
it may be efficient to just start at the beginning of the vector and
walk through it looking for the insertion point.

Most algorithm books will give you more information than you want on
sorting.

Why not just do it in the query and let the db do it?

RE: Sort a collection in alphabetic order

[David Haynes]

Although I don't know anything about Soren's specific problem, I have
had times where the database is protected by a bean and the process of
having a new data access method on the bean is simply too complex to be
believed (i.e. you have about a gazillion review processes to go
through). In these cases, I have found it sometimes useful to take the
data as it comes and massage it locally.

RE: The Back button on on multi-page forms ??????

[David Graham]

Pressing the back button does not contact the server and thus cannot post 
any information.  When the user submits the form again, their token will be 
invalid and your action will prevent a duplicate post.

ActionServlet Action caching problem

[Whitmire, Jeffrey]

I've got a weird one.  I'm hoping that somebody else has encountered this
before and can help.  We are in the midst of load testing our app before
rolling it out to production.  I have one action class (only one) that
starts failing well over an hour into the test.

It appears that the instance of that action class cached by the
ActionServlet becomes invalid.  I can see no reason why the change in
behaviour, but at some point the RequestProcessor gets an instance to the
Action that is no longer valid.  It is not null, but it never executes it.
The rest of the app works perfectly, but that button (tied to that specific
Action) never works again until the tomcat instance is restarted.  It just
hangs, and the last indication in the log is the RequestProcessor finding
and returning an instance of that action class.

Has anyone ever had problems with Action instances going stale?  or some
other config problem that could cause this?

Thanks, I'm a bit desparate,
Jeff.

RE: The Back button on on multi-page forms ??????

[Ron Day]

I'm not sure I am explaining my problem correctly.

1) a Jsp page displays a form with text boxes, radio and checkboxes.
2) Form is filled out and submitted.
3) if validated, the next part of the form is dispayed with a second jsp
page.
4) But, User hits the browser back button
5) First form is re-diplayed, but the form fields have not been populated
correctly, and sometimes my validation errors appear on the newly displayed
form, even though it was submitted correctly the first time.

What I am asking is:

1) can someone explain what the back button is doing?
2) can I fix this in Struts, so that the the values that were submitted are
now present when the form is re-posted.

I realize that this is a browser issue, but I was hopiing to get a fix for
it somehow.

Tokens have been mentioned, and I have looked at the struts example and the
many posts in the archives.

I still do not see my way through this.

If I am being dumb, don't be afraid to tell me.
It won't be the first or the last time !!!
