RE: array property in ActionForm ???

[Mohan Radhakrishnan]

Hi
Seems that you have a List of player objects. If so then indexed bean
properties might help. Your form will contain something like the following.

public void setPlayerList(ArrayList playerList){
this.playerList = playerList;
}

public ArrayList getPlayerList(){
return playerList ;
}

public void setPlayer(int index, Player player){
playerList .add(index, player);
}

public Player getPlayer (int index){
return (Player)playerList .get(index);
}

Read the doc. for the JSP portion of the solution.

One more solution is the nested tag. I've used nested beans for multiple
levels of nesting. It is so cool.

Hi Suresh,

I checked the name of the form in my validation.xml and varified that I am using the

I am able to get the Error object from my form bean but I am unable to display it on

Re: What is wrong with this upload filename (UTF-8) decoding?

[Jason Lea]

Yes, I think you are right, i didn't realise which class we were talking 
about there.  I have just read a bit more about the Struts FileUpload 
and how it wraps commons upload.  Assuming Commons Upload works 
correctly with the setHeaderEncoding, then I guess there might be work 
around.

Struts will use org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler 
by default to handle extracting the parameters out of the request and 
populating the form.  It uses the DiskFileUpload class from Commons 
FileUpload.  It is that handler that we need to modify, to do that we 
could create our own using the 
org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler source as the basis.

We need to tell Struts to use ours instead of the defualt by adding this 
to your struts-config.xml



Then to modify org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler 
by creating our my.own.MultiPartClassHandler class.
We need to modify  the handleRequest() method like so:

 // Create and configure a DIskFileUpload instance.
 DiskFileUpload upload = new DiskFileUpload();
 upload.setHeaderEncoding("UTF-8");

 // Set the maximum size before a FileUploadException will be thrown.
 upload.setSizeMax((int) getSizeMax(ac));
 ...
This is all untested and off the top of my head, so there is likely to 
be a mistake there somewhere, but I think it is possible.

I have not used the file upload yet, but I believe you need to set the 
encoding for the headers

formFile.setHeaderEncoding("UTF-8")

setHeaderEncoding does this:
"Specifies the character encoding to be used when reading the headers of 
individual parts. When not specified, or |null|, the platform default 
encoding is used."
If this was running on a English operating system it is probably 
defaulting to the Latin-1 encoding.

From this Java Doc:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/apidocs/org/apache/commons/file
upload/FileUploadBase.html#setHeaderEncoding(java.lang.String)
Please post back to the forum if this works.  I would be interested in 
the result.

Hi,

my application has to support UTF-8 including when files are uploaded 
with UTF-8 characters in the filename (for example: 
??.txt).

I use a servlet filter that always call
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8") and my jsp pages contain 
response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");

Everything works fine except that I have problems with decoding of the 
name of uploaded filenames.

I use the code below to get the name of the uploaded filename:

String nm = formFile.getFileName();
String filename = new String(nm.getBytes(), "UTF-8");
The code above converts only the first couple of characters correctly
(result: ??.txt).
Any ideas how to fix the problem?

I use TC-4.1.29, Struts-1.1, jdk1.4.2_02 Windows-XP.

File Upload Problems

[Patrick Scheuerer]

Hi,

I was just looking at the struts-upload application... why is the file uploaded 
to %TOMCAT_HOME%/bin ?

What i would like to do is to save the uploaded file in a subdirectory of the 
root of the application (%TOMCAT_HOME%/webapps/myapp/uploaddir). The saving 
location is determined on a the "file category" chosen in the file upload form.

Another thing I don't know is, how I can retrieve the base path of my web 
application.

I tried something like this:
String savingLocation = new String(
 request.getContextPath()
+ "/data/"
+ category.getPath() + "/"
+ fileName);
Then I create a File with this path as in:
File tempFile = new File(savePath);
If i read the absolute path of the tempFile:
String absPath = tempFile.getAbsolutePath();
i get the following:
C:\myapp\data\tests\uploadedFile.txt
where
- myapp is the name of the application
- tests is the path name for this category supplied in the form
- uploadedFile.txt is the uploaded file :-)
Any tips, suggestions and examples would be highly appreciated.

Thanks, Patrick

Re: How to perform validation and then call another javascript function?

Not to be too off-subjectbut, why do you have the "Struts Users

skipped right over your post.

Would you mind changing it to at least "strutsgroup" or something with

In theory, you could write a filter for the forwards that would
check to see if a REFERER is set for the request. If not, the
request was likely
entered directly in a browser.

Oracle JDeveloper 10g is one of these as well. 

It gives Struts developers integrated visual J2EE application building and databinding 
support, among many other cool things.

This include visual Struts page flow modeling, and other Struts-specific support.

You can take a product tour even before downloading a trial version at (various 
viewlets available to watch):

http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/collateral/prodtour10g.html

JDeveloper is a fully-featured Java IDE with a small pricetag (free to try it, $995 to 
own a dev license, no runtime fees for using
any of our J2EE productivity frameworks).

It has a slew of Java coding productivity features, the top ten of which Brian Duff 
points out on his weblog quite effectively:

http://radio.weblogs.com/0128037/stories/2003/08/11/topTenToysForJavaCodersIn905.html

We demoed our JSF support (visual editing and databinding) on stage at June 2003 
JavaOne, and will demo something that will blow JSF
users away for this year's JavaOne conference which is based on what we've done since 
that first sneak peek.

JDeveloper has a pluggable extension architecture built on the JSR 198 model for IDE 
extensions that is on its way to becoming a
Java platform standard. It ships with hundreds of pre-built and pre-tested extensions 
in the box, which you can configure to use as
your needs dictate. You can download more extensions from the Oracle Technet website 
or build your own using standard Swing and the
JDeveloper extension SDK.

For an idea of how to build a complete application using a maximal set of J2EE 
application-building productivity features, you might
check out our Struts/BC4J Toy Store Demo and whitepaper at:

http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/products/jdev/bc4jtoystore/index.html

Re: How to perform validation and then call another javascript function?

[Saul Q Yuan]

I think you can define a new Javascript function, and call the
validateSubscriptionForm(this) first in the new function, and inside
onsubmit call this new function instead. Something like the following:

newFunction(form) {
  validate = validateSubscriptionForm(form);

  if(!validate)
return false;

   // do other stuff you want;

// return true of false based on your logic

}

and

onsubmit="return newFunction(this)"

How to perform validation and then call another javascript function?

[Clark Kent]

I have a form in which upon submit, depending on whether a certain checkbox is checked 
or not, it is directed to a certain action (if checked, then action 1, if unchecked, 
then action 2). With the following code, I am trying to validate the form.  Now I need 
to perform the validation and also depending upon the checkbox condition (checked or 
not) I need to redirect it to one of 2 actions. UpdateSubscription() is a javascript 
function which directs to a certain action and then submits it.  

How can I do both the validation and also call this javascript function to redirect to 
different actions. Can I use any condition within the onsubmit=" " ? Any help would be 
appreciated?

This usually happens when your container has another copy of (a different
version of) the Commons FileUpload jar file, and you are not putting all of
your application's jar files in your WEB-INF/lib directory, so that the
wrong jar file is being loaded. Just make sure that your web app is
self-contained and you should be fine.

I believe the only difference is in the key passed to the Validator. The
former uses the value of the 'name' attribute from struts-config.xml, while
the latter uses the value of the 'path' attribute. (But no, I don't know
when you would choose one over the other. ;)

Best place to initialize resources in an action class

[Nimmons, Buster]

I recently started using strutsin lie of straight servlets and jsps. I was
wondering where is the most logical place to perform initialization process
in an Action class. In a servlet I normally use the init method to perform
these tasks. The closest I have found in the Action class is the Setservlet
Method. Is this the correct place?

Guillermo is trying work too hard.

The standard approach to dealing with boolean form bean properties (presented by
a checkbox) is to set the boolean property to false in the reset method of your
form bean, which is called every time the form is submitted.  If the user
checked the box, then the property will be set to true in processPopulate().

Now, if you want to reset the property again before forwarding back to the same
page again (so that it's always rendered as unchecked when the page is
displayed), just have your Action set the boolean property to false.  That is
what controls how the checkbox is rendered -- in EXACTLY the same way that an
Action can preconfigure any other form field by setting the corresponding form
bean property before fowarding to the page.

Care to share?  This would be a very, very useful extension.

Is there any plan(s) for future Struts release(s) to support some

"forceValue='true'".

RE: What is wrong with this upload filename (UTF-8) decoding?

[Daniel Rabe]

I see a similar problem with file upload. It doesn't look like
org.apache.strugs.upload.FormFile exposes a setHeaderEncoding method...

I have not used the file upload yet, but I believe you need to set the 
encoding for the headers

formFile.setHeaderEncoding("UTF-8")

setHeaderEncoding does this:
"Specifies the character encoding to be used when reading the headers of 
individual parts. When not specified, or |null|, the platform default 
encoding is used."
If this was running on a English operating system it is probably 
defaulting to the Latin-1 encoding.

 From this Java Doc:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/apidocs/org/apache/commons/file
upload/FileUploadBase.html#setHeaderEncoding(java.lang.String)

Please post back to the forum if this works.  I would be interested in 
the result.

Multiple localization (resource) files for one application

[Daniel Rabe]

I understand the mechanics of how to use the "bundle" attribute with some of
the HTML tags to specify which resource bundle will be used to look up the
translation keys. I'd like to use several resource files for my strings so
that each subset of functionality can have its own resource file. So far so
good. However, I just realized that the html:errors tag uses a single bundle
for all of its ActionMessages. I was hoping to have all my "standard"
validator error messages in a "common.properties". But some of my Action
classes also add ActionMessages where the key refers to an entry in their
own properties files. It looks like this won't work quite the way I wanted
it to.

How do other development teams manage to split up their resource files in a
useful way? Any hints or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Daniel Rabe

RE: Boolean checkbox in session form

[Guillermo Meyer]

To solve this problem, i created a new taglib for checkbox (extending
BaseFieldTag), that creates a hidden input with a value of true|false
and an auxiliary checkbox (named as  + _chk) with a
javascript handler that checks on checkbox value to set true or false to
the hidden field, so always is posted a true or a false value from UI
and set to the appropiate form attribute, and this way you can avoid
reseting value in reset form.

Hi,

I'm becoming mad ...

Explain : to handle ActionForm boolean properties with HTML checkbox, we
"need" To initialize the property as "false" in the reset() method of
the ActionForm .. Ok

Now, if the Action form is defined in the session scope in the
struts-config file The first time the action is called, the bean is put
in session scope.

The next time (eg submit of another form on the same page), the bean is
readed from session scope (RequestProcessor.processActionForm) ... ok
After that, the reset() method is called
(RequestProcessor.processPopulate)

So it's impossible to keep the boolean property as "true" 

How can I store the form bean in the session scope with a "true" boolean
property ? Or maybe is there a way to not initialize the boolean
properties as "false" (and update them with checkboxes )

Is my problem understandable ??

It wouldn't be useful for most people, but for an intranet application where a regular

Re: [Tiles] Populating Tiles definition attribute at runtime

[Paul-J Woodward]

I modified the ActionServlet (might not be necessary - need to investigate the dynamic 
module config stuff further), created a new TilesDefinitionFactory and changed a few 
other bits and made tiles extract all of its definitions from a database. I also 
implemented a cache mechanism as a Java servlet so that database access was minimal.

This was all because I need a site that was truly dynamic, whilst running on a cluster 
of servers.

Re: Is there a way to prevent urls from being entered from the browser?

[Mark Lowe]

So to "prevent urls from being entered from the browser" all you have 
to do is take the keyboard and mouse out the equation.

Nice solution I can see how that would be useful for most folk's.

In theory, you could write a filter for the forwards that
would check to
see if a REFERER is set for the request. If not, the request
was likely
entered directly in a browser.

RE: Is there a way to prevent urls from being entered from the browser?

[Domingo A. Rodriguez S.]

Hmmm.. I would use a 'state machine' because: 

1. You just can't disable the URL bar in your browser without rendering it
useless (..).
2. Use javascript and your users will disable it.
3. Hack your browser to disallow entering URLs in the URL bar and then
hack everyone else's who need to use your application.

Definitively I would use a State Machine where I could control what URLs
(and their parameters) are supposed to be allowed anytime. I could control
their flow from inside the servlet without having to buy expensive
hardware or hacking everyone's pcs just to keep the users behaving
properly.

Atte.

Re: Oracle DataSource configuration

[Ed Dowgiallo]

OK.

I have moved the Oracle JDBC library from shared/lib to common/lib.  Same
error message.  SQLException: Cannot create JDBC driver of class '' for
connect URL 'null'

Restarted Tomcat service.  Same error message.

Removed all the javax.sql... classes from classes12.jar and
classes12dms.jar.  Same error message.

Logged a few sanity checks.  All look OK.
Value of servlet init parameter data-source is Library
InitialContext is not null
Context for java:/comp/env is not null
dataSource is not null: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Any other ideas?

Has anyone successfully configured oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory
or oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleConnectionPoolDataSource instead of or in addition
to org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory and
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver?

Thank you,

RE: struts and JDeveloper 9.03

[Steve Muench]

JDeveloper 9.0.3 ships with Struts 1.1 Beta 2

JDeveloper 9.0.4 and JDeveloper 10g ship with Struts 1.1 Final

This article explains the steps of running a Struts-based demo (like our BC4J/Struts 
Toy Store Demo) under 9.0.3 using Struts 1.1
Final. It should contain the steps that you need to run your application with Struts 
1.1 Final if you don't want to yet move up to
JDeveloper 9.0.4.

Hello,

JDeveloper 9.0.3 puts it's own version of struts.jar in the lib directory, which is 
older than Struts 1.1.  This causes the error
when you try to run the pages.  Try making an empty jar file, setting it to read only, 
and replace the struts.jar in the lib
directory with it. 
This will prevent JDeveloper from overwriting it with it's version again.

This is a kind of annoying hack, and if anyone has a better suggestion, I wouldn't 
mind hearing about it.

Hope this helps,

Patrick

Dynamic form property names

[Paul-J Woodward]

Dear All,

I have been struggling with this all day, It'll take a bit of background to explain 
what I am trying to do:

I am creating an online wizard to populate templatised web pages, and hence create a 
dynamic struts/tiles-based site.

Each template has various containers for content, each container can be filled by a 
set of different tiles. The templates are defined in a database. The definition for a 
template associates each container with the category of tile that it can hold, for 
instance a template may have containers for navigation and menu tiles. The database 
also contains a list of tiles that fit into each category of container.

I would like to create a single form that lists the categories, that has radio button 
for every tile in each category.
My code looks like this:

  
  


Compatible elements in this category:



  

  
  
  


  
  


The issue is this:
I need to make the action form map-backed (I think) because the number of radio 
buttons is only know at runtime, but I can't find any way to name the radio buttons by 
the name of the category that is being selected. What I would like to use is value(<%= 
elementCategory.getName() %>) where my action form has a map and a setValue(String 
key, Object object) function.

Thanks in advance, Paul

RE: Is there a way to prevent urls from being entered from the browser?

[Andy Schmidgall]

That would require a keyboard, would it not? :)

Could you not have a flag var in the session or something that is only
set by a certain piece of code? If the user typed in the URL directly,
the flag wouldn't be set, and you could filter requests based on that.

In theory, you could write a filter for the forwards that
would check to
see if a REFERER is set for the request. If not, the request
was likely
entered directly in a browser.

You can change the values of those attributes at runtime. I prefer to do

Re: [Tiles] Populating Tiles definition attribute at runtime

[Brice Ruth]

The cleanest thing to do here, likely, would be to have your 'content' 
attribute have a value that maps to an Action (/search.do would work, I 
think - Vic might be able to confirm this) and in the Action class, 
define an attribute "heading" stored in request context, that pulls from 
request parameters. The tiles-defs.xml isn't really a "dynamic" 
mechanism in any way - its a config file that is loaded - it isn't 
treated as a JSP that gets compiled into a .java and then compiled to a 
.class servlet.

Alternately, just set your heading attribute in tiles-defs.xml to be 
"Search" or whatever you want, and in the /search.jsp file, use JSTL to 
prepend param.myValue. This would be pretty clean for simple scenarios.

Hi,

I have to validate a form which collects all the data connected with a

validation. Everything works fine for the text based form elements. I 
would also like to validate the file (FormFile) for size (it shouldn't 
be bigger than e.g. 1 MB)  and MIME type (pdf, doc, exe, zip, etc.). Is 
there any extension for the Validator framework that can accomplish
this? Of course I could write my own validator class, I'm just curious
if 
something like this has been done already and is a readily available.

Hello,

JDeveloper 9.0.3 puts it's own version of struts.jar in the lib 
directory, which is older than Struts 1.1.  This causes the error when 
you try to run the pages.  Try making an empty jar file, setting it to 
read only, and replace the struts.jar in the lib directory with it. 
This will prevent JDeveloper from overwriting it with it's version again.

This is a kind of annoying hack, and if anyone has a better suggestion, 
I wouldn't mind hearing about it.

Hope this helps,

Patrick

File Upload Validator

[Patrick Scheuerer]

Hi,

I have to validate a form which collects all the data connected with a 
document. Allong with discriptive information there's also a  
element to upload the file itself. So far use a DynaValidatorForm to do 
validation. Everything works fine for the text based form elements. I 
would also like to validate the file (FormFile) for size (it shouldn't 
be bigger than e.g. 1 MB)  and MIME type (pdf, doc, exe, zip, etc.). Is 
there any extension for the Validator framework that can accomplish this?
Of course I could write my own validator class, I'm just curious if 
something like this has been done already and is a readily available.

Thanks, Patrick

the last entry overrides any previous entries. I'm not sure how

Re: [OT] Who owns Eclipse

[Brice Ruth]

Eclipse contributors, committers, etc. don't need to be IBM employees, 
but they need to be active in the project and recognized by existing 
contributors, committers, etc. Its structured similarly to the Mozilla 
project, which revolved around a core group of Netscape (now former) 
employees.

Most importantly, the Eclipse plug-in framework is absolutely available 
for anyone or anygroup to take and do with as they please. The plug-in 
architecture itself is almost entirely a community effort. Obviously, 
the 500 odd plugins that make up WSAD are developed by IBM, but there 
are a great number of various plugins out there for Eclipse, free and 
commercial.

As for "if IBM goes bankrupt" ... keep holding your breath, friend :) 
Having a corporate sponsor for an Open Source project is a *good* thing 
... purely open, free, and informal open source projects are great, but 
have a difficult time with systems as complex as an IDE, a browser, a 
database, etc. Even Apache has a formal group that guides what direction 
development takes, to some degree, and provides organization and 
structure (in this case, a non-profit, I think).

What do you think?

fact that it resembles many of the IDE functions that Eclipse has, is 
purely coincidental, at this point :)

checkbox validation required

[LAUFERON Caroline]

Hello! 
I'm trying to validate a form in which there are two checkboxes. the validation must 
succeed if at least one of them is checked (i.e. fails if none of them is checked). I 
know validwhen would be the solution, but I have to use Struts 1.2's requiredif. 


  field[0]field2
  fieldTest[0]EQUAL
  fieldValue[0]false
 


  field[0]field1
  fieldTest[0]EQUAL 
  fieldValue[0]false

field1 and field2 are two checkboxes. (two booleans in the validatorForm)

I suppose that what I really need is a "maskif" rule ;-)
has anyone an idea?

Thanks, and happy New Year !

Re: question about form handling

[Mark Lowe]

I'd approach the problem by thinking about having a child form that 
popluates a parent form. When you close the window or submit (have a 
button in noscript tags) the child it fires up an action which copies 
the values of the child form into the parent.

If the parent is scoped to session

ChlidForm theChildForm = (ChildForm) form;
ParentForm theForm = (ParentForm) session.getAttribute("parentForm");
String foo = theChlidForm.getFoo();
theForm.setFoo(foo);

RE: Design question regarding struts security features

[Mohan Radhakrishnan]

Hi
   Are you only filtering data based on role ?

   If you are talking about role-based access of views then we are doing
something like that

   1. You can use Container Manager Authentication and restrict access to
URL patterns to only valid users.
   2. You can use the vendor-specify XML file to specify roles and groups.
(e.g) principals.xml in OC4J
   3. You can use a vendor-specific API like the 'DataSourceUserManager' in
OC4J to write custom code that can access your tables and do away with
hard-coded principals.xml
   I think you can also use the role attribute in struts-config.xml and
restrict access actions. Tiles has a role attribute too ? though we are not
using that.

Subject: Design question regarding struts security features


Hello everybody,

I'm in the process of developing my first Struts application, so forgive
me if this question is insulting everybody's intellect.

The application I'm working on is a support portal where you can
download technical document, drivers etc. The tricky part is, that
certain documents should be only accessible to users with a certain role.

My idea so far is to put a user object in the session and to evaluate
the role (and therefore the access level) of the user for all views that
are displaying  data which might be restricted.
I guess the easiest way would be using a jsp tag like
 which would retrieve the user object from
the session (if it exists) and the then filter the data accordingly. Is
there such "security taglib" around?

Has anybody worked on a similar scenario? What is the best approach to
solve this problem? Is there a best practice for it? Any tips, hints,
code snippets are welcome.

Thank you very much.

Patrick

Using JSTL tags and assuming you have a collection of elements named
"elements" in some scope:

RE: Design question regarding struts security features

[Robert Taylor]

You should be able to do this with standard J2EE security provided
by your web container.

If you store your user credentials in a database, then you may want
to look at SecurityFilter:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/securityfilter/

It allows you to leverage standard J2EE security features but provides
more flexible authentication.

Hello,

have you also put the struts.jar library in the Configurations/Libraries of
your project settings ?
You can access the project settings by double-clicking on you 'project.jpr'
in Jdev

I hope, it helps you ...

question about form handling

Hello,
anybody know how to handle one action, but two forms (one base form + one popup ). 
When the popup gets closed the base form should be updated with the data from the 
popup. Anybody has a working example ?
Thanks

RE: PDF file in browser

[shirishchandra.sakhare]

Your first point of using xxx to make it open in 
a new browser is valid..

But the second point i did not get it.

Exactly for those situations where the user is prompted for save dialogue box,I have 
suggested to add the response.addHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" 
+ saveAsFileName );
This makes it to give the proper file name in save as dialogue box.

And it works with netscape as well...Thas what we are using here..

HTH.
regards,
Shirish.

You 're forgetting two things...

1- He wants to show a pdf  file in a new browser
to do that, you must set the apropiate target into de A tag...

xxx

target="_blank" will open the link in a new window.

2- This, will only work if the users uses Internet Explorer...cause it's an
activeX container, unless the
user changed it, by default pdf files and other documents, will be opened
inside explorer...but other
browsers such as netscape, mozilla and opera, are not activeX container, so,
pdf files will prompt the user
to download them, or open directly.

Hernux

Hi,
Also do not forget to set the header so that the save as dialogue box is
displayed in IE...For that you have to set the content-disposition header ..
following is the  code from our project..


Class  FileOpenAction{

protected final void returnBinaryFile(
HttpServletResponse response,
String filename
String saveAsName)
throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
response.setContentType(mimeType);
String fileExt = WebUtil.getFileExtensionFromMIMEType("application/pdf");
setSaveAsHeader(response,saveAsName,fileExt);
File file = new File(filename);
response.setContentLength((int) file.length());

FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
OutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
byte[] buf = new byte[4096];
int count = 0;

while ((count = in.read(buf)) >= 0) {
out.write(buf, 0, count);
}

in.close();
out.close();
}

public static void setSaveAsHeader(HttpServletResponse response,String
saveAsFileName,String fileExt){
if(saveAsFileName == null){
return;
}
//to get over a problem in browsers due to which the file name must have
proper extension
if((fileExt != null)|| (fileExt.length() !=0)){
int index1 = saveAsFileName.indexOf(fileExt.toUpperCase());
int index2 = saveAsFileName.indexOf(fileExt.toLowerCase());
if((index1 == -1) &&(index2 == -1)){
saveAsFileName = saveAsFileName + "." + fileExt;
}
}
response.addHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" +
saveAsFileName );
}
}

Also another thought..Why use another servlet..Just use another action like
we do..This way you can use all the existing framwroek..Like authorisation
etc

Additionally, In struts framework you have to reset request header before by
call


request.reset();
request.setContentType("application/pdf");
request.setContentLength(byte.length);
