As usual, lots of ways to skin that cat. You could just leave it in a 
separate servlet and have its  value precede the Struts 
servlet. You could also use a Struts PlugIn. If you're using a Servlet 
2.3 container, you could use a ServletContextListener.

As for the handler object, a Servlet 2.3 container would allow you to 
use a Filter. Another possibility would be to extend RequestProcessor 
with a class that implements processPreprocess.

If the setup and request authentication don't depend on any Struts 
classes, I'd opt for the ServletContextListener and Filter approach.

Any advice?

I have done authentication filters and they work very nicely with struts.

Re: ezmlm response

2003-10-14 Thread Mary Remillard

Hi I'm new to Struts and Tiles and I'm having a problem getting 
the Action class to be instantiated and it's execute method
called when I use a tile definition under certain circumstances. 
I need the execute method called in both cases since I need to 
prepopulate the form

Case that works
---
When tile definition is processed using link action in a jsp




I see this in the log that /common/customerDetail is processed
by org.apache.struts.tiles.TileRequestProcess as definition
'.layout.customerDetail'. It then goes on to look up the ActionBean,
look up the Action instance for the class and calls that Action
instances execute() method. Which is exactly what I want.

Case that doesn't work
--
But when the tile definition is processed using the ActionForward
returned from  Action.execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)

I see in the log that it's just inserting the page and not looking
up the Action instance class and calling the execute method:

2003-10-14 17:01:27,366 [Thread-4] DEBUG 
org.apache.struts.taglib.tiles.InsertTag  
- insert page='/common/customerList.jsp'.

How can I get the execute method to be called in the 2nd case? Thanks
for the help.

The biggest difference is that  is hooked into the

modules. However, I've hacked a quick JSTLSwitchAction that seems to 
keep the default JSTL localization context in sync with module changes.

I'm trying to use as many JSTL tags as possible, and I generally use the
Struts-EL README.txt file to tell me what I should use.  In this case,
the README.txt file would have led me to use the Struts-EL tag when
there is an equivalent JSTL tag.
I'm not entirely conviced that I even _need_ to put labels in a
.properties file.  Is i18n the only reason to do so?  I'm 99.9% sure
this webapp will *never* need to be displayed in other than English.
One other reason would be the added level of indirection. In other 
words, it keeps string literals out of your code/page. Even for a single 
language, you may want to change the actual text represented by a key. 
If that text needs to appear in more than one place, it's a lot easier 
to just modify the property file.

Difficulty getting html:message tag to work.

2003-10-14 Thread Matt & Toni Willis

Hi,
 
I'm using Struts 1.1, and am attempting to utilize the new
ActionMessages class with the  tag.
 
I have the following code in my Action class:
 
actionMessages.add("message", new
ActionMessage("error.systemAuthentication.failure"));
  saveMessages(request, actionMessages);
 
 
 
With the corresponding tags in my jsp:
 



 
 
No message is being rendered in the html page though.
 
I think I'm definitely misunderstanding the concept behing both
ActionMessages and htmL:message.
 
 
Thanks in advance:

IMPORTANT: internationalize large chunks of text/HTML

I have posted this before, and I still am trying to understand the best way
to approach this.

I have 100% of my labels in a Resource bundle currently. But I also have
larger pages of text (1-2 pages at a time), that I need to be
internationalized just like my labels. I am wondering what the best way to
do this is?
I just want to know what other people are doing that is easy on maintenance.

Converting to Struts, where to put Servlet init() code?

2003-10-14 Thread Wendy Smoak


I'm converting an existing webapp to Struts.  I have some code in a
Servlet init() method, and I don't immediately see where I should put
it.  This is an authentication/authorization webapp, and the code in
question sets up an authentication handler object to be used by every
subsequent request.

What's guaranteed to get executed before the Action code?  (I'm almost
thinking Filter, and to put the object in Application scope, but I'm not
sure yet.)

Any advice?

Re: Basic question about the struts sample application

2003-10-14 Thread Xiuyu Zhang

The mapping are handled in the struts-config.xml file.
 If you take a look at the  tag, you
will find the action's path.  Inside the  tag,
you will find a  tag; hence, the /logoff.do
knows who to forward to.

Hope this help.

Basic question about the struts sample application

2003-10-14 Thread Julien Martin

Hello,

I am going through the struts sample application (struts-example.war) and I
am trying to understand the firtst global forward.  Here it is:

***

***

How does the application knows that "logoff.do" is mapped to the logon.jsp
page?

Can anyone answer this question please?

Thanks in advance,

Julien.

Oracle JDev 10g has quickly become my favorite Struts IDE,
even running under Linux quite alright at home though this is

forgets the browser command line (even if you manually
edit the configuration file, don't remember how it's called

it's something like Struts Studio++, though I usually don't
use the integrated modelers and do the UML work with
Poseidon UML 2.0 at home. Still, probably the best
allround Java IDE around.

Considering 'free': in my understanding, JDev is free
for download (well...) and using it for an unlimited
evaluation period. For production use, you must
license it. That's ok, I think. Comes the price tag:
IIRC, JDev 9i was sold for $ 995, including support.
How will it be with 10g in this direction? Not that
I'm directly affected, as we're Oracle Alliance
partners and get the whole range of Oracle
software anyway, but the price tag for the final
version of 10g would still be interesting. Generally,
it really would be helpful if Oracle could just say:
using our products costs this per named user
and that per CPU, and you get an x% rebate for
ASFU licenses. But if Oracle says 'free', it should
really be 'free' in the common understanding of the
term, and not: free to download (never got charged
for just downloading anything, IIRC) and evaluation.
So better say: JDev costs $ , but we grant
you a free, unlimited evalutation license period.
This way round :-)  

Finally, I'll misuse the list for some JDev-related
problem I couldn't find any solution for neither at
OTN nor by consulting orionserver.com (noting
that OTN searches are our last resort, as even
UltraSearch seems to be always presenting
the *least* relevant topics first, with a special
knack for early 8.1.5 documentation). The
problem is that we are currently porting a
subproject from Sun ONE to JDev. Everything
went well, but we still have a Bean factory that's
accessed via JNDI. The general idea is that
my developers should be able to to not just
write their code in JDev, but also make use
of its 'Run' or 'Debug' features. This means,
everything has to run in the integrated OC4J
container, of course.  So my question is:
how do you tell OC4J about additional
JNDI resources available that are not 
DataSources (in Sun ONE | Tomcat, you do
this via server.xml). We already found out that 
-oc4j-app.xml seems to be part
of the solution, but adding the fitting
 entries there only led to
'type unknown' JNDI errors in the JSP stack
trace. Yes, we even added everything feasible
to /lib and system classpath. Do you possibly
know a solution? Currently, the application
still runs in Tomcat, and we debug it via
log4j, ie. the 'old way'. Did cost us 3

Try changing the property value reference in your JSP to reference
"awardIndexed" instead of "AwardIndexed".  That might help, but I'm not

RE: validator

2003-10-14 Thread Joe at Team345


You have to play around with it a bit.  Try something like this:


 
  
 
datePattern
MM/dd/
   


Last your form name that this field declaration is in better be "user" else
the "user.date" is incorrect.  Also your use of "users.userDate" is
different from what I do.  I just include the name of the property on the
form.  So if your Form name is "user" (not "User" or "users") then you can
just put "userDate" there.

Hello all:

I'm having problems using the Validator plugin to check a date field.

In the form i have a simple textbox and I'm using the following

On submit I get the error: "datePattern has no properties".
I traced down the error to a line of code where de length of the

This code is generated by Validator so I don't know what to do about it.

Any ideas?

RE: Request Scope Lifetime & Propagation

2003-10-14 Thread Wiebe de Jong

If you are using Validator, you could use a multi-page form.
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/validator/ValidatorFo
rm.html

IMHO, one of the major gains of ValidatorForm over ActionForm is the 'page'
attribute, which will enable you to use one form over multiple pages.

Hello,

Is there anyway to propagate data from request to request? That is I
have some data used in one request (which renders a JSP) which I want
included into the next request. The data in question is in the request
scope and is not really appropriate for the session scope (since they
would have to be cleaned-up if a user begins the request chain again).

Any suggestions that avoid writing the data to the query string?

Re: Accessing Application Ressources

Doesn't MessageResourcesConfig.getParameter give you the bundle basename? So, if
you're in an action, you could do:

ModuleConfig moduleConfig = mapping.getModuleConfig();
MessageResourcesConfig messageConfig =
moduleConfig.findMessageResourcesConfig(Globals.MESSAGES_KEY);
String bundleBasename = messageConfig.getParameter();

html radio tag, value attribute, special characters < > "

2003-10-14 Thread Chen, Haiwei (H.)

We noticed that a string value containing html sensitive characters, such as < > & " 
etc., is not filtered / escaped for html:radio tag (the value of the radio input). 
This cause the resulting html page to break, as in the following browser view -

[radio box here] " checked="checked"> Blue

User should see this - 

[radio box here] Blue

After looking at the taglib source code, we know that HiddenTag, OptionsTag, 
TextareaTag, TextTag, etc, do escape the special characters, using 
ResponseUtils.filter method.

However, RadioTag, CheckboxTag do not.

Is this something that the future Struts releases could fix / support?

Thanks.

To find out the *name* of the application resources file, you would have 
to parse the struts-config.xml file yourself, looking for the 
appropriate  element.  To access the actual entries, 
an instance of MessageResources containing them is stored as a servlet

Indexed Properties examples?

I am still trying to get this to work. I simply want to display records in
table format in a browser and be able to change the data, do a submit and
have access to the changes back in the action. Currently I am getting :
"HTTP ERROR: 500 No getter method for property AwardIndexed[0].safAwardCode

If I can offer anymore info, please ask. Also, if anyone has a working
example of this I would love to see the snippets of the jsp, formbean and
any other relevant parts.

Here are some snippets.
.jsp -

   
   

form bean -
  private ArrayList awards;
 public void setAwardIndexed(int index, AwardMasView ob){
  System.out.println("setAward");
  this.awards.set(index, ob);

Help needed using struts with database and sessions

2003-10-14 Thread Jeroen Breedveld

Hi all, 

I'm creating a webapp using struts and a database. The jsp pages access
(for read and write) a resource object in a custom ActionForm like this:

 (causes setName() to be called on
the resource object when submitting form)
 (causes
getOwner() to called on resource object when jsp is loaded)

All calls to the methods in the resource object need to be called during
a database transaction because the resource object itself accesses the
database to retrieve or set data. I don't want to open and close a
session for every call on the resource object, ideally I want one
session to opened when the jsp loads and several calls are made to the
resource object consecutively. This session would have to be closed as
soon as the jsp is finished loading. And I want a session to be openend
when a form in the jsp is submitted so that new data can be stored in
the database. This session would have to be closed as soon as the jsp is
finished submitting the form data. 

Does anybody has an idea how I can somehow couple the jsp session with
my database session or maybe there is an event-listener that I can use
to start and stop database session when struts is accessing the
ActionForm? Any help is welcome.

Thanks and regards,

Jeroen

Actions and

2003-10-14 Thread Sonam Belbase

Hi,

I have an actionA whose success should display jspA using properties from
formA. These
properties were set in actionA.

Once the user is done with jspA, they click on a submit button and it should
go
to actionB, which has it's own form bean formB and  display jspB on success.

jspA looks like:




 
 
 





Because I want the submit button in jspA to invoke actionB, I set
actionB as the action associated with the form.

Problem is, once I do that, jspA now uses formB's properties.

How can I get jspA to use formA, but on submit to forward to
actionB and be able to use formA's properties?

Thanks,
SB

Re: IDE

Depends on your interpretation of the word open in this context, if  it's
"Free to download and evaluate" then try Oracle JDeveloper 10g Preview
release http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev
If the definition is "Product that I will never, ever, ever have to pay for"
then ignore this.

RE: Passing parameters between forms

2003-10-14 Thread Joe at Team345

This approach might work for a small system, but I would not encourage it
for a large business app.  If I follow you correctly, this assumes that
subsequent pages will be served by the same container.  This is infrequently
(at least in systems I've seen) the case...

RE: [Slightly OT] Where/how to start?

2003-10-14 Thread Brian McSweeney

I reckon you should try to read the source code of a good open source
j2ee app. Furthermore, J2EE is big - there's a lot of stuff you could
use. 
I would recommend sticking to standards. Struts is good for this, so why

not look at the struts examples that come with the struts download.
Another large part of J2EE is ejb etc. There is quite a lot to learn
there, so a good example of a project that puts it all together is 

http://sourceforge.net/projects/xpetstore

This uses more standards that you'll probably have to learn,

For example

Ant - your project build system
Junit - for testing
Xdoclet - for code generation
Struts - for your web mvc part

Learning all these by reading how someone else did it is far, far easier
than trying yourself from scratch.

Hth,
Brian

Here's what I did at my last job: I was mostly a C, JAM, Oracle
developer
but wanted to learn Java and J2EE. Try to find an approach that will let
you
learn J2EE while benefiting the company in some way.

Let your managers know that you want to learn the technology. They'll
know
that you aren't content just doing the same old thing every day, and
they
might start to look for training opportunities, whether it is sending
you to
class or putting you on newer J2EE projects.

Another way is to take a few hours each week learning a new technology
and
incorporating that into some sort of prototype that your company might
be
interested in. Take an existing application and prototype a Java/J2EE
version of it. Show it off to your managers, then move on and do some
more
prototypes. Even if it doesn't go into production, you have built real
applications in a real work environment.

Hi all,

I have a strong Perl/CGI background, but my JSP/Servlet/J2EE experience
is related only to what I did in college. My job entails C development,
but I really want to get more into this J2EE stuff.  It's so much more
enjoyable than this C work I am doing, but I can't seem to get my foot
in the door.  In looking for a J2EE development job, I keep hearing
that I need more experience, which is perfectly understandable.   But,
I can't get experience without getting a job doing it first.  My
question is, how do I get my foot in the door so I can split my boring
job and do what I really want to do?  Do I need to go full tilt and get
a certification or something like that?  Any ideas would be most
helpful.  Even more helpful would be a J2EE job in the Chicago area
where I could develop my professional career in this area.

Thanks very much!


Best Regards,
Andy

Re: Urgent: username case insensitive for j_security_check?

Mick,
it depends on your login framework. Are you using a tomcat realm or have 
you rolled your own? If you are using a JDBC realm with a database, you 
could change the query to make the conversion, for instance.

Hi Mick,
a filter won't work. You won't be able to put anything between the
browser submit and the container-managed authentication - it's
completely tomcat and allows no programmatic interference. Can't you
convert your user names with a script or something?

RE: Passing parameters between forms

My preference is to emulate the session functionality in your own classes,
i.e. publish / subscribe.  Stick a static map in your class and use a unique
key generated from objects both threads are aware of to index the object,
then you can pull it out when you need to.  Synchronize if you need to as
well.

I like this better because then you can run junit tests w/o worring about
the container.

FYI, the RequestProcessor hasn't met the needs of many extenders for
various reasons discussed on the struts-dev list.  A Commons Chain project
is in the works that Struts will leverage in a future release to make it
far easier to customize the request processing pipeline.  Contributions
are welcome!

RE: DynaActionForms

My question was regarding, JSTL, Velocity, etc.  I prefer the standard tags
with the nested extensions and standard JSP expressions (I can read the JSP
after I walk away for a week), which is probably what I will end up doing.  

Yes, you answered my question.

I don't use reset, if I can help it.  BTW, since you are really putting a
collection in a form, do you really need to use a DynaForm?

Here's what I did at my last job: I was mostly a C, JAM, Oracle developer
but wanted to learn Java and J2EE. Try to find an approach that will let you
learn J2EE while benefiting the company in some way.

Let your managers know that you want to learn the technology. They'll know
that you aren't content just doing the same old thing every day, and they
might start to look for training opportunities, whether it is sending you to
class or putting you on newer J2EE projects.

Another way is to take a few hours each week learning a new technology and
incorporating that into some sort of prototype that your company might be
interested in. Take an existing application and prototype a Java/J2EE
version of it. Show it off to your managers, then move on and do some more
prototypes. Even if it doesn't go into production, you have built real
applications in a real work environment.

Hi all,

I have a strong Perl/CGI background, but my JSP/Servlet/J2EE experience
is related only to what I did in college. My job entails C development,
but I really want to get more into this J2EE stuff.  It's so much more
enjoyable than this C work I am doing, but I can't seem to get my foot
in the door.  In looking for a J2EE development job, I keep hearing
that I need more experience, which is perfectly understandable.   But,
I can't get experience without getting a job doing it first.  My
question is, how do I get my foot in the door so I can split my boring
job and do what I really want to do?  Do I need to go full tilt and get
a certification or something like that?  Any ideas would be most
helpful.  Even more helpful would be a J2EE job in the Chicago area
where I could develop my professional career in this area.

Thanks very much!

Best Regards,
Andy

Re: Urgent: username case insensitive for j_security_check?

The issues is that I have seen the users that will be on my system. and they
are already adding "TheUserFromOhio" as a username etc... Now I can always
change everything to lower case when they register. But then I still have
the issue about the login.
And many of my users are Mac users, so I seem to have heaps of JavaScript
issues.

Re: OT: Managing Modifications to Struts

2003-10-14 Thread Greg Reddin

I've only submitted a very small amount of code to this group so I'm
preaching to the choir :-)

But, now that I'm learning, there are only a few reasons why I would not
submit code back to the community:

1) The code was written under a non-disclosure agreement and I am not
permitted to give it away. In this case I would probably rewrite the
code in my own time and submit it, then tell my boss "Hey look. There's
an open source solution for exactly what we're trying to do."

2) I'm too embarassed to submit the code because people will see it and
laugh. As I try to humble myself more, this becomes less of an issue
because I find that I get help more than I get flamed, and if I get
flamed it's usually because I deserve it (i.e. I've been lazy or done
something stupid).

3) I can't imagine it will be useful to anyone else. In this case I've
usually created something that's either not really useful to myself or
is useful, but I could use some help in making it useful.

The bottom line is, there are very few good reasons to not submit code
to the community. If you do submit, you don't have to worry about
upgrades and multiple code paths and whatnot. Plus you get excellent
bug fixes and support.

But the real answer to your question is that there's little reason to
modify Struts. Struts has so many extension points that I don't think I
would ever need to modify it. It's real easy to subclass
RequestProcessor and screw a lot of things up.

But, in the event that you find yourself modifying the code and there's
no way out upgrades will be a problem. Having done this before there
was a Request Processor, the best advice I can give is keep track of
every bit of code you change and try to do it with diff/patch tools, so
as much of it as possible can be automated.

Sorry to give such a long response without any good answers.

Derek Richardson wrote:
I am interested in how developers and organizations that modify Struts for their own use manage the upgrade process. Of course, one technique is to give your modifications back to the project so that they become part of the next release. But what if you don't?

Re: [REPOST] Best Practice Question - html links

If you're using a JSP 1.2 container, JSTL can help out a bit. It doesn't look
like you need an HTML form for any of this, you're constructing a bunch of links
that will issue GETs to the action mapped to "/changePage". As long as that
mapping uses a (Struts) form with a property called "pageName", it should work.

struts-config:


  




JSP:

<%@ page pageEncoding="UTF-8" %>

<%@ taglib prefix="c"uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; %>
<%@ taglib prefix="html" uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-html"; %>

RE: Passing parameters between forms

2003-10-14 Thread Shyam A

Carey,

Thanks for your mail. I knew about the option you
suggested and mentioned it in my mail.

quote:

I know I can save the "foo" attribute into session in
Action A class and access it in Action B, or set the
scope of Form A to session in struts-config and access
Form A from Action B.

unquote:

However, the disadvantage of this option is that I
need to use session scope for the forms, which I would
like to avoid.

I also know it is possible to pass the form attribute
as a request parameter as follows:

But, this allows the user to see the parameters being
passed. I would rather use buttons for the link and
post the form.

Do you have any suggestions/comments?

Thanks,
Shyam

Re: URGENT: html:options

2003-10-14 Thread Nicolas De Loof



create a scripting variable "agencyIds" and a page scope bean "agencyIds". This 
created vector is empty.

<%  agencyIds= MyUtils.getAgencyIds();   %>

chags the object referenced by the scripting variable, but not the page scoped bean.

You should use something like this, assuming populateAgencyIds(List) adds items to an 
existing List :

<% MyUtils.populateAgencyIds(agencyIds); %>

Re: URGENT: html:options

2003-10-14 Thread ajay brar

hi!
thanks for the reply.
doesn't the jsp import statement followed by the usebean ie,
%@ page import="MyUtils" %>

introduce the agencyIds into page scope.
also with the example you gave me should

   

shouldn't the value of collections be items, since that is the key you used.

thanks

collection attribute of  tag is used to set the name of a 
bean (in some scope) that is a collection of the
items off the select-box.

You need to put your Vector into page or request scope to use this tag:

<%
request.setAttribute("items", agencyIds);
%>

RE: DynaActionForms

2003-10-14 Thread Robert Taylor

I'm not sure what you mean when you ask "what view technology".

You can find ListUtils here:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/collections/api/org/apache/commons/collect
ions/ListUtils.html

I've rendered these lists using a variety of 
components - checkboxes, multiboxes, select lists, text, hidden, etc...

I admit, I had a hard time getting my head around how to use indexed
properties
and dynamically generated fields but they work. You will most likely have to
subclass the DynaActionForm and override the reset().

Heres a link to using indexed properties:
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/faqs/indexedprops.html

Let me know if I answered your question.

[REPOST] Best Practice Question - html links

2003-10-14 Thread Joanne L Corless

I know this may seem a little rude but no-one picked up on my question and
I really could use some help with this

html links   
   
 
   
 



Hi,

I am implementing a struts application with menu lists which need to be
dynamic based on a user role hierarchy, i.e not a simple user role = menu
list. Therefore I cannot set up menu lists in the tile definitions file as
they are

I hold the menu list in a database which I am accessing via an EJB and
returning to the session using a vector of DAO object 's which contain the
basic information about each menu item, i.e name, link,type (we have
different types of links some open a pop-up window, others run an inline
java applet)

Currently I am using standard Java scriptlets to access the vector and
print it out in the JSP tile page example below:

<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/struts/tiles" prefix="tiles" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/struts/logic" prefix="logic" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/struts/bean" prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/struts/html" prefix="html" %>
<%@ page import="com.csc.ebilling.ejb.common.MenuItemDAO" %>
<%
 String commonImagePath= request.getContextPath()
+"/presentation/DEFAULT/images";
 String currentPageName = (String)session.getAttribute
("currentPageName");
 java.util.Vector topMenu = (java.util.Vector) session.getAttribute
("topMenu");
%>




<%
  for (int i=0;i
  
 
   

<%=topMenuItem.getMenuItemName()%>

  

   
<%
}
else
{
%>
  
   

   
  
  
   
<%=topMenuItem.getMenuItemName
()%>
   
 
  
  


  

<%
 }
  }
%>





I realise that this is not best practice and I should be using the tag-libs
but I'm struggling to make the tag-libs work, I'm also confused about
whether this tile needs to be inside a form as I am not actually submitting
anything (as in a Login page), however I do need to pass a pageName
parameter into the request.

The above example does work (sort of) however I am unable to extract the
pageName parameter in my action class as it keeps returning null

I would really appreciate some pointers as I thought I had struts figured
but I now realise I've gone wrong somewhere along the line

User authentication and Intranet single sign on

2003-10-14 Thread Robert Lamping

Dear all,

For our Struts application we are looking for a single sign on solution.
(Sign on in the network, NOT single-sign on in Tomcat)
With much interest I followed the thread about user-authentication by
Caroline Jen, Gregg and finally the examples of Matt Raible.

I tried the code and it works. We use FORM based authentication now and this
is a good alternative when testing authorization in our web application for
user with different authorization.
We are using Tomcat (Jakarta-Tomcat 4.1.27 with hotfix 22096). and defined a
realm to our user, user roles database. 

For the production environment we are looking for the following:
Users login into the network with their own username and password. I am
looking for a way to grab this username and authenticate this user "under
water" in Tomcat or using some other means, e.g. a filter, using the realm
"user/userroles-database"
 
The result should be that the user only gets a login denied screen when he
is not authorized. 

What is the easiest way to do this? 

Another approach:
We tried to use jcifs, but then the FORM based authentication of the
container does not work. 
When using jcifs, the request.isUserInRole() does not work. Does someone has
example code to solve this?

Hope you can help.

Kind regards,

Robert Lamping

As far as I can tell, there is no easy way to do this.

In theory, you could provide your own URLStreamHandlerFactory, that sets an
appropriate timeout on the underlying Socket, then pass it in to the URL
constructor, but this would be a non-trivial solution.

It works fine.

Try removing the newsgroup server and adding it again.

RE: [Poll] Action Form data types

None of the above.  I use java data types but use getters and setters in the
ActionForm to perform the casting and any other manipulations necessary.

RE: html:hidden, disabled attribute

2003-10-14 Thread Chen, Haiwei (H.)

Thanks for your response. We have a need to include a hidden tag in the
form; but sometime we want the hidden tag to be disabled so its value will
not be posted to the server. 

I have filed a bug report. The problem will be fixed in the future Struts
releases.

-Original Message-
From: Robert Lamping [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sent: Monday, October 13, 2003 6:38 PM
To: Struts Users Mailing List
Subject: RE: html:hidden, disabled attribute


Haiwei,

The purpose of the hidden tag is to keep the property and its value in the
dataset of the form. And you will use it, when you don't want to expose the
value to the user.
Whereas the disabled attribute will exclude the property from the dataset in
the request. 

For your information. When you would have a unique value for the item
presented on the screen and you use , then
you will find out
that the property for this unique value is not in your request. With the
normal getters and setters, your unique value now gets blanked. "". And gone
is your unique code.

Hence, the hidden tag and the disabled attribute are more or less mutually
exclusive.

Kind regards,

Robert Lamping

Does anyone know whether future Struts release will support the "disabled"
attribute for the  tag? 

For some reason, it is not supported in the Struts 1.1. Does anyone know the
reason behind that?

Thanks.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No bean specified

2003-10-14 Thread Deepak




Hi,
    Submission of a page after using 
browser back button results in "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No bean 

specified" error. Initially I thought may be the 
form is not in the session, so I put a check in 
the corresponding action class. But 
the exception is 
thrown before the control reaches my action class. Any solution to this 
problem ?
