Online Multiple Choice Testing System--Struts will be considered...
I'm going to design a web application. I'll call the great project Online Multiple Choice Testing System, that could be deployed in my LAN-ed campus. There will be at least three types of users: guest, tester, testee. Guest is able to see general information. Testee is able to log in and do a test of her choice. Tester is able to create, edit, delete, and manage test. Tester can have more than one set of test. Tester is also able to make her test as active meaning that it can be used by testee; as disabled meaning that the test is inactive-inaccessible by testee; as active for certain time and date period meaning that the test can only be done only at predertermined time period. Tester is also able to analyze her test items, such as statistical analysis. Maybe the fourth type of user will be better, i.e., admin with task to manage the system such as limiting number of test that can be created by the tester. Other possibilities may occur later. Questions are: How should I implement the above project (using Java technology) with regard to should I use struts or not? What will be the benefits of each approach-with or without struts? With regard to ease of implementation, because I'm new to web application, which one will be easier-with or without struts (for a newbie-r)? why? However, I'm tempted to use struts. When I use struts, what simple steps should I do to finish the project? Are there similar examples (using struts) found at the Net that I can cusomize to my purpose? In this case, I'm going to use MySQL as database engine. Thanks for your suggestions and opinions. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Using ResourceBundle's subclass in Struts
Hi,
I posted a question but seems nobody replied. Anyone tried to define a subclass of
ResourceBundle and use it in Struts?
For a standalone program, it's straightforward to use sel-defined resourcebundle
classes, for example,
public class MyResourceBundle extends ResourceBundle
{
public Object handleGetObject()
...
public Enumeration getKeys()
}
//use the subclass
ResourceBundle bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle(MyResourceBundle);
However, when I specify the resource name as MyResourceBundle, Struts can not find
the message bundle although my class MyResourceBundle is on classpath.
It's possible to replace bean:message tag using my own methods, however, the action
controller I uses is an instance of DispatchAction, which will match a method name
with the message bundle key, for example, button.next matches to the function
doNext and so on.
So I can could totally avoid using struts message functionaliity, or how I can use my
own ResourceBundle?
THx,
Regards,
dq

Populating Drop downs
I need to populate three drop downs in a jsp before presentation. Currently I have writted routines in the ActionForm which access the DAO class and populate the lists. The problem is that the DAO class throws an exception which means that I have to make my ActionForm aware of a hibernateException. I want to do this in the action class and make use of declarative exception handling. Is the Action called prior to presenting the jsp? If so what is the entry point?

Re: struts books
I found Ted Husted's Struts in Action very useful. It has an excellent big picture first few chapters which really get it through to you that Struts is actually not very complicated at all. The devil is in the detail, as always, so the rest of the book is pretty useful as a reference for the nitty gritty details. I found it was pretty up to date for struts 1.1. -- If education is too expensive, try ignorance.

two little questions
Question1: If my application allows users to enter text which will then later be displayed on web pages, do I have to ensure that the text they write isn't html. For example, lets say a message board application. If a user enters in loads of text which is html, will this not mess up the page when it is displayed? If so, how do people check for this. Question2: If I want my app to be able to allow users to enter text in any language - eg, multi-lingual message boards, do I have to configure my database to be able to handle multiple language types, or should it just work. Thanks for any replies, Brian
Re: two little questions
For Q1. You could pass the data that they enter through a paser, that delimits out the ... tags by placing '!--' after any '' and '--' before and '', this will stop this text being viewed as html. Or jusr remove the tags or allow cetain tags and remove any that aren't in the allowable ones!

Check box problem.
Hi all, I am using JSPs with checkboxes(HTML:CHECKBOX property=) in all the screen. As we know that an on (or value of checkbox) is sent as request whenever I check the checkbox. Then what is sent when I uncheck the checkbox?? What I observed that if I have stored the form in session and checked 2-3 check boxes. Submited the form moved onto 2nd JSP which also uses the same form I again check 2-3 checkboxes and want to go back and change my selection in previous screen. So I go back an change my selection. Now my third screen displays my all selections. But it displays the unchecked checkboxes which I checked on my second attempt. Could any of you tell me any solution to this problem. One solution is to define the scope of form as request and use hidden field but I cannot use hidden fields cause number of checkboxes is not fixed.

RE: debate over Struts vs other frameworks
Velocity is a view rendering technology, not a web framework. It works quite well with struts and there is an excellent introduction to its use in a struts app in Teds book (struts in action) - well worth a look. (One of the advantages of struts is that you can use pretty much any (web) view technology you want with it - not just limited to JSP) The others I dont know much about, though I could suggest two more to add to your list while your there: Barracuda (a 'competitor' of struts - with a highly developed event model and DOM based rendering via XMLC) ,and Expresso (a framework which inludes struts - and a lot more!) You may also want to read up on JSF - a spec which though not ready yet will be the 'next big thing' as far as writing web based applications goes. Struts already has a JSF integration library thinghy - and it is no coincidence that the spec lead for JSF is the same guy who gave us struts (ie: Craig Mc Clanahan - aka papa struts). :-) -Original Message- From: Butt, Dudley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 14 July 2003 17:42 To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: debate over Struts vs other frameworks : ) i like what i hear so far.. umm, well, there's quite a few...Velocity/Webwork/Turbine/Tapestry/Maverick -Original Message- From: Andrew Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 11:03 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: debate over Struts vs other frameworks Struts good Others bad ...hehe ;- Really it all depends on what you want to get out of your framework...

(One of the advantages of struts is that you can use pretty much any (web) view technology you want with it - not just limited to JSP) The others I dont know much about, though I could suggest two more to add to your list while your there: Barracuda (a 'competitor' of struts - with a highly developed event model and DOM based rendering via XMLC) ,and Expresso (a framework which inludes struts - and a lot more!) You may also want to read up on JSF - a spec which though not ready yet will be the 'next big thing' as far as writing web based applications goes. Struts already has a JSF integration library thinghy - and it is no coincidence that the spec lead for JSF is the same guy who gave us struts (ie: Craig Mc Clanahan - aka papa struts). :-) -Original Message- From: Butt, Dudley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 14 July 2003 17:42 To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: debate over Struts vs other frameworks : ) i like what i hear so far.. umm, well, there's quite a few...Velocity/Webwork/Turbine/Tapestry/Maverick -Original Message- From: Andrew Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 11:03 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: debate over Struts vs other frameworks Struts good Others bad ...hehe ;- Really it all depends on what you want to get out of your framework...

You should be able to do it with

ie.. c:out value=${yourBean.mapName.value.nameOfKey}/
or i think with html-bean...something like...
bean:write property=yourBean.mapName.value.nameOfKey/

Please Help: ActionForm Re-Population
I am on the last leg of a web application, and I've run into problems adding validation to the mix. I have an edit Action that retrieves a database record, a list of drop-down options, and then populates the editor ActionForm. Works great, and I LOVE STRUTS! Now I've implemented validation (through the Validator Framework, but I think my problem is with validate() in general). After the user clicks submit, their post is sent to my update action. If they do not break any validation rules, all goes well. The problem occurs when a validation rule is broken They are returned to the form... but the drop-downs (which are populated in the edit Action) are empty. I have set breakpoints in the code... and I see that the page neither my edit Action code (the part where the drop-down data is retrieved), nor my update Action code is actually running. Question between pressing submit and returning the edit JSP with a populated ActionErrors object. Where is validate() actually called? Where can I insert code to populate a drop-down with a set of values so that it will appear both when the form is presented the first time, and after a validation error?

Re: tracking user activities: how to ignore action chaining (or server side forward)
Sorry, filters were introduced in Servlet 2.3. What you might try doing is using
a request attribute as a flag to indicate that you've already logged the
requested URI. Maybe something like:
if (request.getAttribute(MyConstants.URI_LOG_FLAG) == null) {
request.setAttribute(MyConstants.URI_LOG_FLAG, Boolean.TRUE);
logPage(request.getRequestURI());
}
super.processForwardConfig(request, response, forward);
If you get the chance to move to a Servlet 2.3 container, filters will work just
fine in combination with Struts.

James, Good work on the plugin. I forgot you had a plugin version of it (I use IDEA and I had been using your standalone version). As a UI designer I have one concern about the IDEA plugin interface... no save button. In playing with it for about 30 seconds I see that it has some kind of instant or background save going on. I would be much more comfortable with a save button, but you just explain the file save process? After every change to a field? Thanks, Aaron Longwell James Holmes wrote: Struts Console is the only Struts plugin that I know of for IDEA. It's pretty good as it allows you to work with Struts, Tiles and Validator config files.

forms and options
I am creating a form around a table. The rows in the table are a set of homogeneous beans. Each row in the table has a select widget that is populated from a collection. I would like each row in the table to be pre-selected with the property value for the object in the array that corresponds to that row. The property that I put in the jsp calls the getter in the form of course but, since all rows all share the same ActionForm, I canÂ’t tell which row triggered the getter. IÂ’d like the user to edit the values in the table and save them all at once so I put the whole table in one form. Is there a way to get the menu pre-selected without putting each row in a separate form? TIA, John

Re: Populating Drop downs
The Action is called prior to presenting the JSP only if you've set up: an action mapping to map the user's URL to a an action a forward to the JSP and you set the Action's execute method to return a forward to that JSP The entry point into the action is the execute() method which returns an ActionForward object. To create an ActionForward object use code like the following in your execute() method: return mapping.findForward(name_of_forward); Qasim Khawaja wrote: I need to populate three drop downs in a jsp before presentation.

How to implement as a form ?
I want to make a simple form-page which allows manipulation of values i stor in a dB. The db-table essentially consists of 2 rows, a unique identifier and a boolean value. I want to list the complete contents of the db in a single table with the booleans as checkboxes. What is the best practice for implementing this ? The version I've got 80% done at the moment has an action (displayItems) which is tied to a form (itemsForm). The form in itself consists of a single private List (itemList) variable with the appropriate getter/setter. The list is populated at runtime with a bean for every row in the db. I can present the information to the user using logic:iterate id=ItemBean name=itemsForm property=itemList tr tdhtml:checkbox property=yesNoValue//td /tr /logic:iterate The thing I don't understand (as I said i'm only 80% done so I haven't actually tried it yet) is how the action i submit to will be able to tell which yesNoValue a particular submitted value refers to ? When i look at the html the name for the checkbox is the same for all entries. I get the feeling I might have to wrong approach to the problem, maybe my itemsForm should have getters / setters for arrays instead of a single get / set which delivers a List of objects ?

Re: Please Help: ActionForm Re-Population
Oops, spoke too soon. You discussed 2 options: 1) All drop-down list data goes into session 2) input attribute for the update event goes back to edit Action instead of edit JSP I went with #2 and that brings up a new issue. Doing that causes all of the current values for the fields to be lost (i.e. the user inputs a bad number format in a field they click submit and receive the JSP with a list of errors at the top) Because the process went through the edit action again, the Action re-queried the database and updated the ActionForm with database values, overwriting all the user's values (including ones that were correctly edited and contained no errors). To avoid this I have to insert code in the edit Action to check for a populated ActionForm before querying the database. This feels a little messy. Of course I could use the session solution (#1), but I like to avoid using sessions unless absolutely necessary. In addition, these drop downs could have 100's of items in them, I'd like to keep big chunks of data like that in the request. So the alternative, I guess, is to have another action that NEVER queries the database, but just prepares a blank form. I actually already have one of these... it's my create action. This appears to be the best practice in this situation anyone else have any feedback?

One of the items early on the 1.2.x time frame is to migrate Struts to use the commons-resources package (currently in jakarta-commons-sandbox). One of the benefits gained by doing this will be a much easier way to plug in alternative providers for the message text messages (including a way to use any ResourceBundle implementation directly), without giving up the convenience features of having things together in one method call.

On the second page the values populate correctly, but on the second page the second iterate loop does not populate at all. After investigating I found that arrayList is not populating (size 0) from the second page to the third page, but the first iterarte loop works just fine thru all pages and inserts into the DB correctly.

Re: AW: Online Multiple Choice Testing System--Struts will be considered...
All web based projects of a reasonable size require a good MVC framework. Without a framework you'll have to write a lot more code and the app is likely to be unmaintainable. So, I encourage you to use Struts (or any framework you like better). By the way, any database that doesn't support foreign keys or views isn't worth using :-).

Page Navigation Philosophy
I'm new to Stuts and have read several books. To get started I began
converting one of my sites. The site is fairly basic: a navigation frame
contains graphic images driven by Javascript for the mouse handling. The
only form that exists is on a contact page.
I created global forwards for each of the pages, but then ran into
difficulties getting the navigation bar to work properly. The following code
was generated by Dreamweaver:
a href=home.jsp target=content
onClick=MM_nbGroup('down','group1','home','images/home_3.gif',1)
onMouseOver=MM_nbGroup('over','home','images/home_2.gif','images/home_4.gif
',1) onMouseOut=MM_nbGroup('out')img src=images/home_3.gif alt=
name=home width=66 height=28 border=0
onload=MM_nbGroup('init','group1','home','images/home.gif',1)/a
So far I've had no luck converting this to a html:link forward because of
the graphic images. All my attemps so far result in compilation errors or
lack of success at run-time.
Aside from this problem, the real question I have is whether I'm making
things more difficult for myself by forcing all navigation through global
forwards.
For simple sites, is it really necessary to have an action for each page,
especially if there's no user input?
Still struggling with the issue of when to do global forwards vs. action
mappings.
Have picked up a bit by reading the message boards and appreciate any input
you may have.
Thanks.

Iterating the resultset contents in the view (jsp)
Hi, I'm working on an action that gets a resultset from a database table containing 4 columns. I need to pass that information back to the view (jsp) which will iterate over results. My question is what is the best way to do this. Do I create an array for each row in the resultset and insert each array in a collection, passing that back to the view? If so, how would you iterate over each array in the collection with the logic:iterate taglib? All of the examples only show iterations over single column lists. Any help would be appreciated.

FW: need help
Hi, I am new to Struts and I have to complete a project with an aggressive deadline. I want to know the following: My application will have about 80-100 screens each having different action items. Most screens will have a common header, footer, and a navbar. My questions are: I thought of using Tiles for my application. Is that a good idea. - Should I have to have one action form for each screen or can I group the screens and have one action form for a group of screens. Which would be a preferred method? - Should I have to have one action class for each screen or can I group the action classes the same way as forms? Which would be a preferred method? - Every screen of mine is going to be a jsp page. I want to populate the form data at the time when someone enters the page from another page and I want to write the data into the database at the time when the user leaves a page with an action. Is this possible in the same action class? How does the flow work? Does the control go to the action class first before the form data is picked up for display. If that is the case, will there be an easy way for me to set the form data from the same action class for the form before the data is displayed? Where can I see a sample code if I use one single action class for loading the data and for processing the actions within the form? What should be the setting within the struts-config file for the above scenario. Sorry, if my questions are dumb. I need help.

RE: Iterating the resultset contents in the view (jsp)
The easiest way IMO is to do the following: 1. Create ActionForms or POJOs to represent each row returned from your table. 2. Put these in a List and put them in a scope (i.e. request or session). 3. Display them with the Display Tag Library (http://displaytag.sf.net).

A fairly standard approach is to create a class that represents a row of your ResultSet and store a List of those objects in the request for the page to iterate over. If you don't want to create a class for each result, you should check out the BeanUtils DynaBeans. This little gem: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/api/org/apache/commons/beanutils/RowSetDynaClass.html allows you to transer ResultSet data to DynaBeans in a trivial amount of code.

Hi, Craig, James and David, Thank you very much for your replies. I understand the problem now. I have noticed the MessageResources in struts, however, for my application, I have to maintain two versions of the application, one is the web version and the other is standalone version. One of my software components has its own way to handle message resources, for example, it recognizes messagebunde.key as a message bundle entry. As I can understand, I should use two sets of message resources in my case, one set of classes subclassing ResourceBundle to use my software component and the other set subclassing/using MessageResources in Struts.

There are several reasons for Craig's decision not to use ResourceBundle for application messaging when he originally wrote Struts. For more details on that decision, search the archives. The only reason I can remember is that ResourceBundle is frustratingly not Serializable, making it unsuitable for webapp message passing. That was definitely a problem. But MessageResources in Struts also offers more facilities than using ResourceBundle directly. In particular, it does the parameter substitution thing for you in a single call. One of the items early on the 1.2.x time frame is to migrate Struts to use the commons-resources package (currently in jakarta-commons-sandbox). One of the benefits gained by doing this will be a much easier way to plug in alternative providers for the message text messages (including a way to use any ResourceBundle implementation directly), without giving up the convenience features of having things together in one method call.

Do I create an array for each row in the resultset and insert each array in a collection, passing that back to the view? That is certainly one approach. Indeed, commons-beanutils has a useful little class (org.apache.commons.beanutils.RowSetDynaClass) that is ideally suited to this use case. It creates a List of DynaBeans representing the data content returned by the SELECT. Because it makes a copy, you can close the result set (and return the connection back to the connection pool) before forwarding to the page. If so, how would you iterate over each array in the collection with the logic:iterate taglib? All of the examples only show iterations over single column lists. Let's assume you have done this in your Action: ResultSet rs = ...; RowSetDynaClass rsdc = new RowSetDynaClass(rs); rs.close(); request.setAttribute(customers, rsdc.getList()); so you now have a request attribute containing the list. Now, in your page, you can say things like: logic:iterate id=customer name=customers Name is bean:write name=customer property=name/ Status is bean:write name=customer property=status/ /logic:iterate and so on.

Re: Iterating the resultset contents in the view (jsp)
Another datapoint: JSTL provides an interface called
javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.sql.Result:
public interface Result {
public SortedMap[] getRows();
public Object[][] getRowsByIndex();
public String[]getColumnNames();
public int getRowCount();
public boolean isLimitedByMaxRows();
}
and a utility class javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.sql.ResultSupport:
public class ResultSupport {
public static Result toResult(ResultSet rs);
public static Result toResult(ResultSet rs, int maxRows);
}
to accomplish something similar. The SortedMap instances returned from
Result.getRows are keyed by the ResultSet's column names and use the
Comparator String.CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER so that you don't have to worry
about matching the case of the column name exactly. So, depending on
what your preference is, you can just do:
ResultSet rs = ...;
Result result = ResultSupport.toResult(rs);
request.setAttribute(MyConstants.RESULT, result);
or:
ResultSet rs = ...;
Result result = ResultSupport.toResult(rs);
Map[] rows = result.getRows();
request.setAttribute(MyConstants.ROWS, rows);

Hi,
I'm working on an action that gets a resultset from a database table
containing 4 columns. I need to pass that information back to the view
(jsp)
which will iterate over results. My question is what is the best way to
do
this. Do I create an array for each row in the resultset and insert each
array in a collection, passing that back to the view?
A fairly standard approach is to create a class that represents a row of
your ResultSet and store a List of those objects in the request for the
page to iterate over.
If you don't want to create a class for each result, you should check out
the BeanUtils DynaBeans. This little gem:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/api/org/apache/commons/beanutils/RowSetDynaClass.html
allows you to transer ResultSet data to DynaBeans in a trivial amount of
code.
David
If so, how would you iterate over each array in the collection with the
logic:iterate taglib? All of the examples only show iterations over
single
column lists.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Richard

Re: tracking user activities: how to ignore action chaining (or serverside forward)
Absolutely. One place to start would be Sun's own J2EE 1.3 Tutorial: http://java.sun.com/j2ee/tutorial/1_3-fcs/index.html Specifically, there's a section called Java Servlet Technology: http://java.sun.com/j2ee/tutorial/1_3-fcs/doc/Servlets.html Also, the Servlet 2.3 Specification is the definitive guide and it's not that bad a read: http://www.jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/final/jsr053/ And there's always the Servlet home page itself: http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/ Prashanth.S wrote: Hi kris, Thanks for the info.Iam a newbie to java and i came to know after reading books that their functionality is allmost similar.Now through u i came to know that they r different.Thanku very much for guiding me.Is there any resource present on net that would guide me in this matter???

Re: Online Multiple Choice Testing System--Struts will be considered...
- Original Message - From: nurkhamid [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 2:16 AM Subject: Online Multiple Choice Testing System--Struts will be considered... I'm going to design a web application. I'll call the great project Online Multiple Choice Testing System, that could be deployed in my LAN-ed campus. Such multiple choice testing system is a sample in the Carrier User's Guide at http://www.netspread.com There will be at least three types of users: guest, tester, testee. Guest is able to see general information. Testee is able to log in and do a test of her choice. Tester is able to create, edit, delete, and manage test. You could define a user group for testers and another group for testees. Anonymous guest is supported in Carrier too. The testers can be assigned to be the owners of some item and action mapping categories. They are responsible to compose testing web forms. Tester can have more than one set of test. Tester is also able to make her test as active meaning that it can be used by testee; as disabled meaning that the test is inactive-inaccessible by testee; as active for certain time and date period meaning that the test can only be done only at predertermined time period. Tester is also able to analyze her test items, such as statistical analysis. In Carrier, action mappings (logic web forms) and item forms can be published and withdrawn. They are available to use only when they are published by testers. In the sample, once a testing is started, it is in a workflow process, called inbox process. It then be moved from stage to stage by the testee or the tester (who is responsible for grading) You could write time control codes for the testing stage to limit the total duration the testees could have. An very important feature is that testers can replay the testing web forms submitted in the inbox process. And on the testing web forms, testers could also specify certain area reserved for instructor only. You'll find it in the sample. In that area, tester give their grades or comments to the testees. Maybe the fourth type of user will be better, i.e., admin with task to manage the system such as limiting number of test that can be created by the tester. Carrie supports this feature too. Other possibilities may occur later. Questions are: How should I implement the above project (using Java technology) with regard to should I use struts or not? What will be the benefits of each approach-with or without struts? Carrier is built on top of Struts and a virtuall free Internet IDE. One CPU license could support thousands of testers and testees on Internet. You then focus on the socre evaluation engine, testing workflow design, testing template design, analysis, etc, if you use Carrier as your platform. With regard to ease of implementation, because I'm new to web application, which one will be easier-with or without struts (for a newbie-r)? why? However, I'm tempted to use struts. When I use struts, what simple steps should I do to finish the project? Are there similar examples (using struts) found at the Net that I can cusomize to my purpose? In this case, I'm going to use MySQL as database engine. MySQL is not recommended. We support Oracle database. If you do not have Oracle resources, you send email directly to me to schedule a live demo for Carrier on Internet at our site. You will find as a tester, you are able to compose live testing web forms in our site completely on Internet. The software can be downloaded at http://www.netspread.com/downloads/instructions.html With the Oracle database, Carrier is able to manage thousands of testing web forms without any problem. Thanks for your suggestions and opinions.
