RE: Still struggeling: howto get ActionForward to calling page

[Yansheng Lin]

Will this work with browser's back button as well?  You need to use session
scope for this to work, right?  No cache allowed of course...

This is definitely what I would do.
And just to be more clear, I would copy that action mapping into as many new
ones as you need.  Just change the name and input page, then you should be
all set.

Also, if you don't specify the input page correctly, you can't return to
that page if there are validation errors.

I think this is the best solution by far.

Hi Alex

Please try following solution 

In multiple screen scenario having same display list .Have separate actions
for each screen then you can have forwards in case of error in respective
Action which will map to original action.

[ Double-click this line for list subscription options ] 

The input attribute on the action mapping is what you specify for the 
return page when validation of the form bean fails, so that is not going 
to help you.

The easiest solution I can think of is to put a hidden field in your 
selection screens with the screen's URL in it.

Alternatively you could try using the HTTP header referer e.g.:

Referer: http://www.w3.org/hypertext/DataSources/Overview.html

but this is an optional header so not all browsers have to send it. I've 
never used it so I don't know which browsers do send it.

Re: [OFF TOPIC] JavaScript + tag question

[Adam Hardy]

Might be OT, but I still think the selectbox element doesn't have a 
value property - only an options collection, so -

x = document.forms[0].elements[anySelectbox].selectedIndex;
item = document.forms[0].elements[anySelectbox].options[x].value
BTW do you know if using the name directly as in

document.formname.selectelementname

is kosher W3C?

Hello
I'm using Struts 1.1 with commons-logging. My 'commons-logging.properties'
file is in the CLASSPATH and has the following 2 entries:

org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.SimpleLog
org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.log.LogonAction=info

When I run my application the Log should use the 'SimpleLog', as defined
in 'commons-logging.properties'. BUT it uses the default logger for my 
environment
org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk14Logger

How can I configure logging to use 'SimpleLog'?? Any examples??

Thanks

Allowing only POST for form submittal ????

[Bailey, Shane C.]

 

 

I have worked with Struts at a few different companies now and I noticed
none of them try

to do any checks to see that only POST methods can successfully make it to
Actions

which handle forms submittals.  Struts allows GETs and POSTs to make it to
every Action

so it seems like this would be something to think about (or maybe not, that
is one reason

I am asking).

 

So I guess I have a few questions then:

 

1.  Shouldn't I worry about (and defend against) which request methods
types (GET, POST, etc.) can make it to which actions?
2.  If so, does Struts have a built in mechanism like  or if not 
3.  Should I be doing something like this at the top of my execute()
method: 

  if( ! "POST" == request.getMethod() ){ return
mapping.findForward("failure"); }  for Actions which should require a POST
only

 

 

With #1 I mean should it matter if someone can go to the URL field in the
browser and type in all the field / value pairs for a form

and hit enter (I am thinking it does matter) compared to HAVING to do a POST
for it to succeed?

 

I am just thinking back to the Servlet programming days when you put the
form submittal handling code in the doPost() and the

other code in the doGet() methods.

 

Any thoughts on this?

We tried this a long time ago.  Fact is, it would be impossible to
categorize discussions by any label.  Especially when you consider how
topics can vary from one area to another or could be a mix of more than a
few that you listed.

Your best bet is to just go through what you can and delete the rest.  There
is a massive amount of knowledge transfer being spread among the threads
here (and other lists), so it is up to you to get what you need or save what
you might need in the future.  I have a technique where I save (what I
consider) important discussions in subfolders within my mail client.  That
makes for quicker searches among relevant messages.

If you read the API you will see that JavaScript functions are built into

so you have several event handlers to use for transferring control.  E.g.,

How much are you expecting to pay for a shared machine with tomcat on? And 
is that with or without root access? I am not suggesting anything, but I am 
planning to do this myself and would like to find out prices. What I have 
looked at so far for root access costs 49 euros (= dollars almost) for 2GHz 
CPU with 256MB ram, 40 Gig HD & 75 Gigs traffic per month.

The next one up with 2.4GHz + 512RAM + 100Gig traffic is 99 euros / month.

You mentioned that you were looking at MiniBlog, but did not like the

Re: Has anyone used Hibernate with Struts?

[Dan Tran]

Victor,

The beauty of Struts (MVC2) is that it does not care on how
you persist you model objects.  Struts' action object is the place
you glue your view and model together.

With that, all you need is to learn how to work with Hibernate.
The following link will give you a good introduction to Hibernate
 thru a simple example.  After that you can look further into
what David has recommmended (see below)

many choices I have, what they do, and how they interoperate. I'm not going
to be the one to say that innovation is a bad thing, but too much innovation
probably is a bad thing. In software design, it usually means the innovator
hasn't looked into appropriate technology enough to know how to us= e what's
available, so a new technology, a new mechanism, is invented. Witness
BlueDragon, Vignette StoryServer, Velocity, Cocoon, XTP, CFMX, and JSP: all
attempt to solve the same problem, albeit in different ways.

That means that people wanting to generate active content have a lot of
choices: master CFML, Vignette's deployment, Velocity's templating syntax= ,
Cocoon and XSL, Resin's XTP, or JSP's various oddities; we can throw in
other variants like ATG Dynamo...it goes on and on, even without necessarily
leaving Java. (Leave out the Java requirement and it gets worse: PHP, ASP,
Tcl, mod_perl, CGI itself, etc.) No longer is generating content a simple
decision, and while each technology has strengths and weaknesses, what I've
found is that, in general, each "innovation" is a marketing tool, a result
of laziness in researching available technology, or an attempt to lock in
customers to proprietary mechanisms.

I've used most of these technologies, and I find myself using JSP for
presentation, with WebWork providing the activation framework, and my own
persistence framework handling data storage. Why? The real reason is because
they're the best straight-line solution I see. I don't want to impress my
peers with my continued mastery of technology for technology's sake; I want
to impress my peers by not needing to trumpet how cool my tools are, by
having a system that's under th= e radar. JSP may not be very impressive,
but it gets the job done, and I don't have to spend time teaching people how
to use it. WebWork takes a little getting used to for some people, but I've
found that the payoff in discussing action invocations is well worth the
time it takes. My persistence framework (PortalWizard) is based on simple
DAO abstractions. The innovation f= actor isn't very high, but then again,
I'm able to roll up applications that are very flexible in a very short
time.

I don't want to focus on presentation. I don't care, really, how my actions
are called. Storage is something I only worry about if it's too slow or
incorrect. I could try to innovate here; I could try to write a
one-size-fits-all solution...but I don't care. I want to get the application
working as a whole.

So when do I think you should innovate?

When you have little choice, that's when. The first step should always be
investigation, and thorough investigation at that. That means actually using
the technology at hand and pushing its limits to make sure it can't do what
you need before you start blazing a new trail that won't help anyone in the
long run. In general, what I've found is that people don't innovate to
improve current technology; they innovate to see their names in lights, to
impress others, or simply to get out of doing technology assessment.
Innovation shouldn't be horizontal. It should be vertical. An innovation's
strength should be  so clear to those who understand it that using an
alternate technology seems unsound. CGI was nice, for example, but having a
way of executing content in the server is a Better Thing, because you don't
waste time starting up new processes. This was an innovation, something new,
something necessary. Coming up with lateral technologies that don't
radically improve = things is wasted time. (Consider Velocity, which I don't
use - it's a templ= ating mechanism that I should use, because it fills some
needs I have in fantastic ways. It's lateral, but the way it renders is very
nice. It gets my personal seal of approval.)  

Innovation is good; it's even necessary. Nobody claims the technology we
have is enough - not fast enough,  not good enough, not complete enough.
However, unbridled innovation is hurting our industry more than it's helping
by breeding underpowered technology and clouding the market's vision. It's
time to curb it.

RE: BeanUtils.Populate exception(Indexed Properties)

See the response I made a couple of hours ago on this same issue. I just
came through one of these. The problem in my case, and probably in yours, is
that when Struts tries to populate your form bean on submission, it calls
the indexed getter for alist. It expects to get a bean of type
"com.register.struts.account.IpAddress" . In my case, I had created an array
of the proper type and length, and was returning an element of this array.
But my "reset" method did not assign anything to the elements of the array,
so I was returning nulls. Struts reacted to the null by throwing the "No
bean specified" error.

return mapping.findForward("success");
}


sectionEdit_execute()

Subject: method to get new Id to next action when old Id is in request?

I have two actions chained together. They both take the same formbean. 
The first is sectionInsert.do and the second, which sectionInsert 
forwards to on success, is sectionEdit.do

sectionInsert.do receives the properties of a Section in the request 
parameters, including id=0 where it is 0 because it does not exist in 
the DB yet. So it inserts the new Section into the DB and returns the 
new id, which is needed by sectionEdit to put into the html for the edit 
page.

I originally thought I could save the new id to the formbean and this 
would get passed on, but sectionEdit instantiates its own formbean and 
fills it with the request parameters - include id=0.

Is there an intuitive way of passing on the new id?

I already use sectionEdit.do as a first action by calling it with an id 
on a querystring, where the formbean picks it up. I would like to use a 
method that is easy for both these situations.

I'd appreciate any inspiration.

Re: DynaActionForm

[Ted Husted]

There are several disadvantages, which may or may not be important to a 
particular application:

* A DynaActionForm can't be instantiated with a zero-argument 
constructor. To create one yourself, you have to use the Struts utility 
methods or use the factory method to copy an existing instance.

* While BeanUtils can see the DynaProperties, other utilities may not. 
So if you use them with Struts EL or Velocity templates, you have to go 
through the map method.

* Likewise, any references in your Actions or other Java code must go 
through the map and pass the property name as a  String. (The 
recommended approach is to transfer the properties to another bean via 
BeanUtils.)

* Struts doesn't provide a way to define a DynaActionForm "type". If you 
want to reuse the same DynaActionForm in a different context using a 
different validation form, you have to give it a different attribute 
property in the ActionMapping.

* The properties to be accessed via BeanUtils are an either/or 
proposition. You cannot extend a DynaActionForm with conventional 
properties; it checks the DynaProperties and stops. =:(

* Since you you can't mix helper properties in with data-input 
properties, if the input needs to be massaged, you may need to put 
helper properties on a separate bean (which might incorporate the 
DynaActionForm through composition).

The major advantage is that between the Struts Validator and 
DynaActionForms, you can prototype a good deal of the presentation layer 
without writing a line of Java code. Likewise, a greater number of 
changes can be made without compiling Java classes. (Heck, with 
something like Struts BSF , you might 
be able to do some applications with any custom Java code whatsoever).

Politically, DynaActionForms also sit well with people who already have 
business beans with the same sort of properties found on the formbeans. 
While you still need to maintain the property names in two places, 
maintaining one in XML seems less redundant.

For a new project, I would probably suggest starting with 
DynaActionForms and using a conventional ActionForm only when any of the 
disadvantages prove to be a problem. Of course, you can mix both 
approaches and use one or the other as the use-case dictates.

RE: Button labels and DispatchActions mix?

[Van Riper, Mike]

Actually, I think the least amount of work (assuming you don't object to
adding a small amount of trivial JavaScript logic to the JSP page) is to
change your  to an  and then add an onclick
JavaScript event handler that sets a hidden form field with the desired
submit action value before submitting the form. You can even embed the event
handler logic directly in the HTML button definitions like so:




  



  


This should work even with two separate forms being used in the same JSP for
the two identically named buttons. Of course, you would then need two
instances of the  tag to include the "action" property in the
two separate HTML forms.

Note: I haven't tested this exact code snippet above. So, there could be
some minor typo in it. However, I have used this technique successfully in
the past.

then set Your original value and return error back to user with selected

I think it should work..

Subject: (help!!! plz!!) Select Box and validation (repost)



Any suggestion? please??? :)

I am submitting a form using "onchange" javascript even handler w/
 tag.  This works fine until I turn on
VALIDATION,
If validation is set to true, and there are any validation errors, when
the page is displayed w/ the validation errors, the value of the SELECT box
has already changed ??
Which causes the cline to see errors messages for the 'wrong' displayed
item.
any ideas??
Thanks,

using struts 1.0.2/webshere env.

I don't agree.
You have to think about the time after the rollout - so, things which are not 
subject of change, IMHO are ok in config files.
All other stuff it's already possible, read from database.
So I can see no step backward.

RE: Bean tag help

[Steve Armstrong]

I really don't know how to explain things any more clearly.  I suggest you
buy a Struts book, and check out the documentation for the tag libraries on
the Struts web site.  Your bean:define tags make absolutely no sense.
Please read the following:

http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/struts-bean.html#define

In particular:

The corresponding value to which this new attribute (and scripting variable)
is set are specified via use of exactly *one* of the following approaches
(trying to use more than one will result in a JspException being thrown):

Specify a name attribute (plus optional property and scope attributes) - The
created attribute and scripting variable will be of the type of the
retrieved JavaBean property, unless it is a Java primitive type, in which
case it will be wrapped in the appropriate wrapper class (i.e. int is
wrapped by java.lang.Integer).

Specify a value attribute - The created attribute and scripting variable
will be of type java.lang.String, set to the value of this attribute.

Specify nested body content - The created attribute and scripting variable
will be of type java.lang.String, set to the value of the nested body
content.

--

Your bean:define tags are performing both 1 and 2 and hence, according to
the doc, a JspException should be thrown.  As I also mentioned, they seem to
make no semantic sense for the context you provided in your e-mail.  Why are
you creating scripting variables via bean:define?  What is the purpose of
this step?

Struts 1.1: what's the preferred way to use databases?

[Graham Stark]

Hi,
   apologies if this is an obvious question, but I can't work it out.

If you're trying to configure a datasource in Struts 1.1, what's the
preferred method? 

The only way I've got this work using the struts-config file is if 
I force the data source to be org.apache.struts.util.GenericDataSource,
as in:


[..]


None of the pooling methods from, for example, the
org.apache.commons.dbcp package seem to work at all. 

Looking at the source code (around line 1080 in
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.java), this seems to be
deliberate.

Could someone explain all this to me? Obviously, I can configure
connection pools manually outside of the Struts framework, but I assume
there are advantages in doing so in a Struts-centric way if you can, and
the DBCP implementation looks quite nice, if I could only get it to
work.

I'd be grateful for any guidance anyone had on this.

thanks,

Graham

How to realize forward to the same page?

[Dirk Behrendt]

Hello!

I want, that the user can switch the language from a drop down menu at
runtime. When he chose a language, an action class is called and sets
the locale.

I want, that there is no forward to another page. The current page
should be maintained. When I do it without the  tag, an empty
page came as a result. But I want the same page. 

example:
The user switches the language

before switch   after switch
/login.jsp  --> /login.jsp
/someJSP.jsp--> /someJSP.jsp

What I have to add to the struts-config.xml?

Hi,

you can't do that.

Your welcome file must be accessible directly via
http://yourserver/yourwebappcontext/common/index.jsp, without involving
the pattern matching mechanism -> so it must not be in the WEB-INF
directory.

Just put a single index.jsp at the root of your webapp, with a

inlvove the Struts mechanism.

Actually your forwards should be part of your mapping object

So it oyu should define it in global forwards so that mapping will get That

Hi,

I have an application that is accessed from another
application and I need to return a user to the
original application when the user logs out/times out
of my application.

I always get a "HTTP - Bad Request" error when I try
to forward to a URL from my DispatchAction class. I
have tried defining the URL in my struts-config and
used the following code in the Action class methods:

return (servlet.findForward("login"));

Also, I get the same result if I define the URL as a
constant and use the code below:

return (new ActionForward(Constants.URL));

The reason I guess is that the ActionForward object
uses a relative path and inserts a "/" at the
beginning of the URL.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Percieved Performance Issues using MVC

[Ted Husted]

Off hand, I'm not sure if you've broken from a pure MVC implementation. 
If you are using server pages, it's a good idea to keep the model code 
out of the server page, since you end up mixing concerns within the same 
component.

But if your servlet is designed so that, internally, the model code is 
cleanly separated from the presentation code, and the Struts controller 
is handling any incoming user gestures, then I don't see how it 
necessarily violates MVC.

In the original desktop MVC, the view called the model directly, and the 
controller just coped with the user gestures. The reasons we don't do 
that with server pages has more to do with HTTP and how server pages are 
implemented, then it does with MVC. While server pages are a useful 
tool, they should not be seen as a panacea. If another presentation 
system is needed, then use it.

The true beauty of MVC is that the Struts controller can delegate 
processing this use-case and view to your servlet, but then still use 
server pages for other cases. One size doesn't have to fit all.

-Ted.

result set.
I believe part of the problem is "Perceived Performance". The SQL query
executes and returns a cursor relatively fast. I've found that
processing the result set that takes more than 90% of the response-time.
While the delegate class processes the result-set and updates the Model,
the user is made to wait.
I've been forced to break away from a pure MVC implementation in order
to satisfy the performance needs of my client. I now employ a servlet
that opens a cursor and transforms the results in real-time. I realize
the query does not complete any faster using this method; however, users
see results in their browsers almost immediately; thus, perceived
performance is much better.
Question: Is there a method under the MVC design pattern to accommodate
perceived performance?

RE: method to get new Id to next action when old Id is in request?

Try putting up id as a hidden variable...

Eg:




it would work

Subject: method to get new Id to next action when old Id is in request?

I have two actions chained together. They both take the same formbean. 
The first is sectionInsert.do and the second, which sectionInsert 
forwards to on success, is sectionEdit.do

sectionInsert.do receives the properties of a Section in the request 
parameters, including id=0 where it is 0 because it does not exist in 
the DB yet. So it inserts the new Section into the DB and returns the 
new id, which is needed by sectionEdit to put into the html for the edit 
page.

I originally thought I could save the new id to the formbean and this 
would get passed on, but sectionEdit instantiates its own formbean and 
fills it with the request parameters - include id=0.

Is there an intuitive way of passing on the new id?

I already use sectionEdit.do as a first action by calling it with an id 
on a querystring, where the formbean picks it up. I would like to use a 
method that is easy for both these situations.

I'd appreciate any inspiration.

RE: Cancel Button Not Working in 1.1

[Bradley M. Handy]

I don't see anything wrong w/ your tag.  However, you're using the
 tag in the body of the  tag, you can
get rid of the "value" attribute.

Still struggeling: howto get ActionForward to calling page

[asaupp]

Hi, 

i am still looking for a clean way to get an ActionForward to the page that called my 
current Action. That means e.g. I am a displayListAction and have been called by a 
selection screen. In case i don't find a result for the selection parameters I would 
like to 
bring a specific error to the calling selection screen. That would give users a chance 
to 
change their selection. 

Sounding easy, this gets complicate in case there are several selection screens 
bringing up the same list. I don't like to create a specific forward for each 
selection page 
and then somehow determine which one called me (can do that, but there should be a 
nice way in such a famous framework?). 

The hint using 
ActionMapping.getInputForward()
or new ActionForward(mapping.getInput())
didn't help me to much, seems to me there is hardcoded value inside, specified in the 
input attribute of the specific action.

How would an expert solve that problem?

 :-) Alex

How to configure commons-logging on JDK1.4

[Koni]

Hello
I'm using Struts 1.1 with commons-logging. My 'commons-logging.properties'
file is in the CLASSPATH and has the following 2 entries:


org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.SimpleLog
org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.log.LogonAction=info


When I run my application the Log should use the 'SimpleLog', as defined
in 'commons-logging.properties'. BUT it uses the default logger for my environment
org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk14Logger

How can I configure logging to use 'SimpleLog'?? Any examples??

Thanks
Koni

Can you give us a brief 'how to'?
   

I wrote up an example last weekend based on the version in jgs-struts 
-- see
http://demo.jgsullivan.com/struts/DigestingPlugIn.html
and
http://demo.jgsullivan.com/struts/DigestingPlugIn_Example.html

Some of this may not apply directly to the version which was 
committed, but it should get you rolling.If there *are* 
discrepancies, we can discuss whether to adjust the version in CVS or 
adjust the docs. 
 

I liked the factored out classes on you web site better than what was 
committed. Look for those
to make it into Struts real soon, (With your blessing) .
   

I didn't commit PlugInSupport because a support class should contain
support methods that many plugins need.  I'm not convinced that most
plugins need what DigestingPlugIn needed so that's why it's not there.  Do
any other plugins need PlugInSupport type functionality?
The ability to read external configuration files from other types of 
sources seems pretty fundamental,
and a good building block.

The xdocs for those two documentation pages are in the source

Let me know if I can clarify anything...

RE: DigestingPlugIn [potential bug]

[James Mitchell]

Did my response ever make it?  I was using Yahoo web-mail and couldn't
remember if I flipped the "from" selector to use the address I'm
subscribed with.

If not, then here's basically what I said:

In my existing project, I added the complete source (per the cvs commit
message).  I figured that it should work fine with the existing 1.1
final jars that I already use.but I could be wrong.

RE: [OT] XForms

[Andrew Hill]

Thanks for the reply Simon,

I guess my first question for you isn't so much about using XForms as about
deploying an XForms based solution: what are you using for an XForms
processor on the client side (or on the middle tier)?

Fate has consipired against me in my attempts to evaluate plugins (Im using
IE5 and the IE6 box I can use isn't on SP1 yet and I dont have admin rights
on it, and I couldnt even download the novell plugin etc...) and the two
server side ones Ive had a (very) quick look at (Chiba and IBM XML Forms (an
alphaworks thing)) both seemed very buggy when I tried playing with their
samples.

Only processor implementation Ive seen so far that appears to work is
XSmiles, but I cant see us deploying that on every seat at large customer
sites... :-(

Interesting to note that XForms has moved up to a "Proposed Recommendation"
status now. Hopefully that means the spec is pretty stable now which might
prompt more moves to implement it.

regards
Andrew

Subject: Re: [OT] XForms


I'm just starting to use it myself. And it's a bit of a pain in the RS
really. I think that it will become a standard next year, as for use within
static sites it's an extremely easy thing to use. (The wizard can knock up a
form page in about 2 minutes, and saves a boat load of typing)

However, if like me, your forms are dynamic, it can be a bit of a sh*t to
deal with. You will need to know exactly how to generate the xform xml doc
on the fly, and this means knowing it inside out and back to front. (I'm on
my fifth or sixth read through and it's starting to make my brain hurt)

But I've read enough to know the basics, so any question drop me a line.

Cheers

Simon

content type header

[Amit Rana]

Hi,

We display a lot of Japanese content on our pages, we have lots
of jsps etc which were initially build for English content only. 

In order to append the right header I tried following two
approaches but failed
1. Passed "content" parameter to AcionServlet 
  
  content
  text/html; charset=Shift_JIS

2. Above is deprecated so I also tried to add an attribute
contentType="text/html; charset=Shift_JIS" to controller tag in
struts-config

Neither of the above two approaches have any affect although including
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=Shift_JIS"%> in the JSPs work.

Is there something wrong in the changes I do to xml? Or there is no
alternative I will have to edit all the JSPs?

Please feel free to direct me to any documentation/link.

Regards,
Amit.

RE: JSTL ot struts taglibs?

[Stephen Brown]

Maybe you could post this to the ECS users group.  Scriptlets are fine, but
tend to lend themselves to having lots of lines of code in a page that
doesn't actually generate html, which is tough to read if you are trying to
lay things out.

What are you talking about?  ${var} is pretty standard in Ant.

Model and Business in Struts-Expresso

[Mehdi Bizhani]

Hi,

I think Expresso uses struts internally,  and you should use its
own front controller, tag libraries and  You can't use
struts directly.

Re: JSP Exception, HELP!!!

Hello All,

This is a real strange exception am getting. I have a main page which has 6 links. First time I can select any of the link and the page is rendered. Once I come back the main page and select any other link, I get the following message:

===
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: No getter method for property accountNo of bean 
org.apache.struts.taglib.html.BEAN

"accountNo" attribute is declared and even the methods are present.

When I close and open a new instance of Explorer, I dont get this message, but this repeats for other pages!! Please could anybody help me?

Thanx in advance.

Regards,
Samanth
 

Just take a look at what it says.  

First,  
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: No getter method for property accountNo 
of bean org.apache.struts.taglib.html.BEAN I would suggest that this is 
accurate, you have to ask yourself exactly what bean is it looking for 
getAccountNo() in?  It looks to me like it's looking in 
org.apache.struts.taglib.html.BEAN which it is unlikely to have that 
property.  So the error will likely be that the tag is not examining the 
correct bean for the property your interested in.
