Re: Validator and Tiles

2003-06-07 Thread David Graham
I use Tiles and Validator together with no problems.  You should never use 
Javascript as your sole form of validation, it's merely a convenience for 
the client.  Did you subclass ValidatorForm?  I've forgotten to do that once 
or twice and wondered why no validation was happening.

Subject: Validator and Tiles
Date: Sun, 8 Jun 2003 01:47:52 +0100
Hi, I've been through the mailing archive without success. I remember had
being used the Validator succesfully in a past; then my web developer
started to use javascript to perform the checks so we didn't put attention
to Validator any more. Now I'm using tiles for my site and would like to 
use
validator, as I am not a javascript expert. It seems to me that Validator
and tiles have some difficulties working together; is that correct?

It seems to me to have made all the setup correctly but when I submit the
form, nothing happens. I've also read that someone else had the same 
problem
with tiles + Validator working together.

If this is not the case, could I proceede to post to the mailing list my
code?
Regards,

Marco

JSP, Java and constant values best practise question

2003-06-07 Thread Gene Campbell
Hello all,

Suppose an action.execute method adds an Object to the
application cache

getServlet().getServletContext().setAttribute(...)

The key value should probably be specified as a
constant value to provide a level of indirection. 
(Suppose constants are stored in a java interface, and
THE_KEY='objectKey'.)  So, we'd have 

setAttribute( IConstants.THE_KEY, someObject );

Now, in the jsp file, the forward from this action, a
bit of JSTL is written to dump someObject.toString(). 
Here's a bit of code that will work.

"target" attribute problem

2003-06-07 Thread Swaminathan Gurumoorthy
I am using "target" attribute in html:form to display the results of a serachform in 
an inline frame
 


In the validate method of the form bean I validate the search form. If the validate 
method  has no actionerrors the results are displayed correctly in the result frame. 
That's fine. 
 
But the problem is if my validate method returns actionerrors, it is not displayed 
back on the parent page. Instead I get a error on the result frame saying "Page not 
found". I think this is because the "target" of html:form attribute is redirecting the 
output to the target frame .
 
How will I display any errors on the parent search page instead of getting 404 message 
on the target result frame?
 
Thanks
Swami

If you take an example of a traditional action form, the same would
happen with that.
If you've populated the form in the referring action then you should
have an insight into how action forms and actions work together.
The form bean should always be there, but know it won't self  
populate
just like a standard action form.

You can scope the form to session or repopulate as part of the  
action
invoked via the form submission.

If you have it in the $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib, then remove it from you

If you've mapped you form bean to an associated action then the form

You dont need the useBean tag. You just need to make sure you've a form

how to submit Unicode text in Struts/JSP?

2003-06-07 Thread Dimitar Georgievski
hi,

I'm trying to submit Unicode encoded to a search engine through a web client
developed is Struts.

Each JSP page of the Web client sets the page encoding using the following
HTML statement:
 

After the submission, in the Action servlet, I compare the request with what
I would expect to receive as a submission:

It goes like this:

  String request2 = new String("\u017Eivot");

  if (request2.equals(_request)){
   System.out.println("request OK");
  }

They are not the same and I don't know why. When request2 is submitted
directly to the search engine there is result received back.

How to submit successfully Unicode text to the server?

I'm using
 J2SE 1.4.1
 JBoss 3.0.4
 Tomcat 4.1.x

thanks,

Hi Mark, thanks for reply. I knew it is a popular topic
but at the time, I was not able to think of good search key for looking into
the archive.

Until I tumbled on a old post regarding lazyList. and the
answer is there just like you have explained ;-)  I hope Struts 1.2 will
incorporate the patch submit by Goodwin to solve this scenario since I know
lots of people have to create their own form bean to handle dynamic
collection.

Thanks and thanks ;-)

Re: How Smart is DynaActionForm?

2003-06-07 Thread Mark Lowe
If you take an example of a traditional action form, the same would 
happen with that.

If you've populated the form in the referring action then you should 
have an insight into how action forms and actions work together.

The form bean should always be there, but know it won't self populate 
just like a standard action form.

You can scope the form to session or repopulate as part of the action 
invoked via the form submission.

Hello,

I have an ArrayList as a element of an DyanActionForm.  The list 
contains
elements of another bean that has properties as strings.

I can populate the DynaActionForm  in my action and have the JSP to 
display
it .

The question here is does DynaActionForm has the intelligent to 
reconstruct
itself after the form is submited back to the server?

I tried but the ArrayList always come back emtpy..

Any suggestion?

Re: Subclassing ActionServlet

2003-06-07 Thread Jim Collins
Kevin,

Thanks for replying. I made doubly sure that I called super.init(config) in
the init method (I read the Servlets book by Jason Hunter three years ago
and he beat it into me like a mantra). I will check my code to make sure I
have not introduced any subtle bugs since I subclassed ActionServlet.

Regards

Jim.

Re: adding / creating new collection elements in a form

2003-06-07 Thread Dan Tran
I just implemented myself, so let me throw a shot at this.

In my case, I make my action derived from LookupDispatchAction
which can handle multiple button submission handlers.
One of the button is called something like "addRow". When you hit this
addRow button, struts will repopolate what ever on your screen and dispatch
it
to your "addRow" handler where you can add new empty row to your collection
and forward back to your screen.

regarding your out of index problem, I would suggest to use common
Collection
ListUtils.lazyList.  Here is an example a lazy collection in a my form

private List gradeViews =  ListUtils.lazyList(new ArrayList(), new
GenericFactory("org.glvnsjc.view.StudentGradeView"));

//there is no direct setXXX, call getXXX first and populate the object
// lazy list takes care all dynamic allocation
public StudentGradeView getGradeView(int index) {return
(StudentGradeView) gradeViews.get(index); }
public void removeAllGradeView() { this.gradeViews.clear(); }
public List getGradeViews() { return this.gradeViews;}

Please look up GenericFactory in the maling list, I dont want to repost it

If you dont know LookupDispatchAction yet, learn it.  It has the magic that
I cant live without

Good luck!!!

-Dan

Problem Statement for some standard e-Biz requirements

2003-06-07 Thread J, Sadhasivam (Cognizant)


Hi,
I have been posting my problem and work through for the past 5 days and not 
even a single mail stating 
this is good or bad. so I am again banging with my implemented code. 
This is just a positive approach to improve struts in a more comprehensive 
framework. I haven't done much in this code,
it follows a standard approach as like ActionServlet..

Files:  explanation


ActionHook  Standard Interface to trigger Hooked methods
ActionHookMapping   similar tool like ActionMapping
ActionHookServlet   Child class for ActionServlet which does 
hooking to a doPost and doGet
ServiceThread   If the hook needs to be implemented in threaded 
environment 


hook-struts-config.xml  configuration XML for action Hooks

ChannelHook & WebTrendsHook These are just a sample implementation tested 
class for this rule.


Note:
==
Some of the behaviors can be implemented through tags also. But my 
idea is not that. 
The Subjective Goal is Doing an asynchronous job for a defined request.
Let me know if there is any problem in that. 

Things to be done.
=
1. Authentication --can be used a standard authentication
2. Parameter passing through the hook-struts-config.xml and usuage
3. Implement more comprehensive ServiceThread Class rather than 
ordinary thread reaper class
4. Implement rich Cache behviour to this.

Dis-Advantage:
=
1. Depends upon the context and usauge Thread Hook might give some 
problem

Please find the war file for further testing ( This was tested under resin 
environment ).   


Hope Ted , criag or other senior person in apache foundation spend some time 
to replay this mail 
both positive or negative. 
if it is negative  i can stop my spaming and 
if it is positive think about further.

Still waiting for the 
replay..

Tnx and Regards

Re: adding / creating new collection elements in a form

2003-06-07 Thread Rob
Perhaps I was not making myself clear when I first posted this.

I know how to write the javascript, I know how to use struts
nested/logic tags.  What I was looking for when I posted was
a solution whereby I could add new elements to a collection
in a form.  Not update existing elements, thus increasing the
size of a collection based on properties from fields that
were added by client side scripting.


I've not been able to find a solution to this within the mailing
list.  But I would like to the following.
I have a page with a collection of fields which are populated by
a form (via it's collection).  I also have a button which would
allow the addition of a new row. (hopefully)
 Name  Descrip
[ xy ][ foo   ]
[ ab ][ bar   ]
Add

(1) I would like to have the add button add a new pair of text
input fields each time it is clicked. (2) I would like it if
clicking add did not make a request to the server this being the
case it suggests some kind of client side javascript adding the
new fields.
The problems of course with this are the following.

(1) client side code won't be able to utilise the struts tags
and as such I won't know what values to set the appropriate
input text element attributes to.
(2) It is highly likely that even if I solved problem (1) that
it would result in a IndexOutOfBounds exception, or just not
bother with the properties from the new fields.
Has anyone else solved this?  Does struts have a mechanism for
dealing with this?  I'm fully aware of nested/logic tags but
if they are the way I can't see how.
Suggestions would be appreciated, Thanks!

Rob

action path specified in an action or forward attribute of
 tag is module relative.

How do you deal with this problem?

Re: newbiew Q: how to do redirect instead of forward

Here is one example of a back button solution I plan to implment.

I've also been known to create web applications that open the app in a new
window without these things -- it doesn't stop the advanced user who knows
the keyboard shortcuts from trying to screw things up, but it sure cuts
down on the unsophisticated users who think a web application is supposed
to be browsable the same way that a web site is :-).
 

G! Craig, *you're* the one who's been doing that to me all this time.

I hope you don't try to stop users viewing the page source by disabling the
right mouse click. ;-)
   

Show me the back button on an app built with Swing, or even with something
like MFC, and I will relent :-).
If users complain that they need the back button, that's a pretty good
clue that you have not defined enough useful navigation controls inside
your application window.  But that's a usability issue, not a
technological issue.

RE: redirect users after x-minutes?

2003-06-07 Thread Hue Holleran
I'm not sure I understand - but I think this may be more of a 'limitation'
with HTML rather than particularly with tiles. A page composed of tiles is
still just 1 complete HTML page. If you want to redirect any part of it I
think you will need to consider using frames or iframes that has its own
'src' property that can be set.

I would NEVER use srtuts for ANY project...mainly because it does not exist
except in the minds of the dyslexic.

[OT] DIR Structure for deploying my code on JBoss

2003-06-07 Thread Mick Knutson
I currenlty have my whole struts application in 2 jars and a war inside my 
ear. This is all done via ant. This is quite time consuming at times as it 
can take me as much as 15 minutes between compiles before I can test my 
code. So, I want to modify my ant so it will just deploy the sode itself, 
and not jar/war my files and LIB's. But, as I went strait for the EAR route 
when I started, I do not know the DIR struture I would add all the files to.
I do know about my WEB-INF, WEB-INF/lib, WEB-INF/classes, but what about my 
EJB's, and my libs that are shared bewteen the EJB's and the struts stuff?

Define tag cannot set a null value' error

2003-06-07 Thread Mick Knutson
I need help with a "Define tag cannot set a null value' error" I get.
I have a state and country that _is_ null, when the user first comes into 
this form for the first time. I do validate this when they submit the form, 
but I don't get that far.
Can someone please help me with this?

Here is the 2 relevant items from my registration.jsp:

<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/statetag.tld" prefix="states" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/cntrtag.tld" prefix="countries" %>
