internationalizing html:option tag, force to lookup resource file

2004-03-08 Thread Keith Hyland
Hi,

Sorry if this is a repeat post, but I don't think the original went through.

I'm just starting into looking at struts.

Is it possible to generate a select/ options list using the html:select 
and html:option(s) tags, where the labelProperties (i.e. the text 
displayed on the end users web browser) get looked up from a resource 
file, instead of been displayed directly.

e.g.

if we have a collection bean made up of 3 namevalue pairs {(1,one), 
(2,two), (3,three)}

 
  
 

produces


 one
 two
 three


This produces a select box with the English values appearing on the web 
page regardless of the locale that is set.

What I want is for the one, two and three to be keys into the 
applicationResources.properties so that different locales can be setup.

If this is not available would it be useful to write a tag to do this?

Cheers,
Keith

html:select default value problem

2003-12-18 Thread Keith C. Klopfer
Hi,

I know this has been talked about before, and I'm pretty sure I understand the 
concept, but I don't know why this is not
working.  The default option for an html:select is not being displayed.  I have an 
ActionForm in request scope called
"BusinessForm" that is populated.  The "status" property has a value of "1" as 
verified by sticking in a bean:write, but
the select list shows the value="0" option as the default item when I load the page.  
I have twelve other html elements on
the page, and they all show the correct defaults, except for this html:select.  Am I 
not seeing something in the code
below...

thanks...keith

I have always had good luck with the Oreilly series.  There book Programming
Jakarta Struts book has worked well for me.  I doesn't so much cover the new
features in 1.1, though.  I have only skimmed through Struts in Action, but
it looks pretty good too.  Those two are the top sellers among Struts books
so that would be the first direction that I would look.  Hope this helps and

Re: Must everything go through an action?...

2003-10-05 Thread Keith Pemberton
Thanks so much for your answer.  While I do understand everything that you
point out, I was wondering if you might have some links to documentation on
some of what you have talked about.  I almost feel like this is a grave
difficency in the struts framework as to not a "standard" way of dealing
with the View Helper pattern.  You know, it would be wonderful to have an
index page with dynamic content coming from a java bean and not have to
initialize that java bean by forwarding to an action that does so from a
welcome page.  In other words, just have every jsp page be linked to a View
Helper so the View Helper does its work before displaying the page that is
called.  From the J2EE pattens book, it seems to suggest that course of
action.  (Of course, I could just be reading in what I want to).  Anyway,
thanks again!

Must everything go through an action?...

2003-10-04 Thread Keith Pemberton
Experts,

I'm struggling with using the View Helper pattern.  In my logical way of
thinking, when a request to any jsp page is made, then the request goes to
the ActionServlet.  The ActionServlet then looks up the appropriate view
helper initiallizes it with any parameters that were passed in through the
request.  The ActionServlet then requests that the view helper put the
required java bean object in the request scope and then the servlet forwards
to the page that was requested.  This doesn't seem to be the case, though,
with how struts works.  Please correct me if I am wrong, but every link in
my jsp pages where the page that I am requesting has content that comes from
a java bean (form bean) must be linked to some action component.  So, just
say that I have an index page where I am displaying only five items at a
time out of database that are ranked based on their index number in the
database.  To get the next five entries from the database I would have to
use the struts tags and put an html:link element in the page that pointed to
some action class.  I, guess, am just looking for an assurance that I am
implementing the view helper pattern the correct way according to struts.
Any help you can provide would be much appreciated!

Design Question...

2003-10-02 Thread Keith Pemberton
Sorry if this is a little off-topic but it has to do with Struts because I
am using struts for my web app.  I have been reading about the View Helper
pattern off the sun website and have two ways of thinking about implementing
this pattern.  First is the way that I currently have setup:

Use an action to call a method on the Delegate.  The Delegate create a
JavaBean (Value Bean) that has the data that I need for the particular page
that I am trying to view.  The Action then sets that view in the session
scope (tried request scope, but it didn't work) and then forwards to a jsp.
The jsp then uses the java bean from the session scope to fill in data for
the webpage.

Now for the other way that I was thinking of:

In the jsp page that I am trying to view, first create a new instance of
the JavaBean by calling  tag.  Then, use the JSTL tags to set
parameters that could be passed in from the url.  The JavaBean then does the
calling of the Delegate to get the information that it requires (potentially
in several method calls).  In the jsp, using jsp tags I call the getProperty
to get the information needed to fill in the data for the website.  In other
words, the getProperty invoke the JavaBean to call the Delegate to get the
information that is needed.

The way I see it, there is a trade-off between the two ways of doing this.
The first way does not allow (easily) for the adding of request parameters
to the url to change the view.  The second way, though, could potentially
involve many expensive RMI calles to the EJB Container, which is where I am
getting the data for the web pages.  I would appreciate any of your thoughts
as to how best to proceed.  Thanks in advance for all your suggestions!

Design question...

2003-08-24 Thread Keith Pemberton
I have a JSP page that contains entries from a database.  I am getting
the items using a DTO that is passed from a session EJB.  What I would
like to be able to do is to specify a parameter in the URL named
"offset" that when changed would display the next results from the
database.  Couple of questions... Would it be considered "presentation"
logic to perform the action of getting the DTO from the session bean
within the JSP page?  I really don't want to do it that way because I'm
trying to keep the layers as separate as possible.  So, if I don't do it
that way, I will have to use Action classes and html:links that can pass
the parameter to action class?

My real question is what is the best way of dealing with EJBs in the
presentation layer?  I know that I have to get a DTO of the information
that I want, but usually the methods of the DTO take parameters that I
can't pass to the DTO in the JSP page.  I have read over and over the
Oreilly Struts book but it still is confusing me.  Thanks for any help!

Subject: Struts to EJB interface strategies


Hi,

Firstly, can anyone recommend a good resource that deals with how you
integrate a Web Tier implemented using Struts with the EJB Tier. And also a
resource that has an excellent example of how the Struts framework interacts
with J2EE. I am
looking for more than the basic examples you normally find as they do not
help given the complexity of the application I am working on.

Secondly, what strategies does one use when deciding on how to implement the
ActionClass to Session Bean Inteface?

I am thinking along these lines:
Create a 'Client Helper Interface' that defines all the business methods
that your application will require.  This Helper class will form the
interface between the ActionClasses and the Session Beans.

The ActionClass creates a 'Client Helper Interface' object and calls the
relevant methods within this interface.  The Client Interface then creates a
Session Bean that implements the Client Interface.

The Session Bean creates the Entity Bean that opens the database connection
and returns the relevant data back to the Session Bean.  The Session Bean
returns the required information back to the Client Helper Interface.  The
Client Helper Interface returns to the ActionClass

Should you have a separate Helper Interface for each Session Bean?

many thanks

Re: iterate over collection a show the inner collection ashtml:select - how ?

2003-08-14 Thread Keith Pemberton
Let's see if I can explain this.  I am going to called the collections
c1 and c2.  Ok, so I have this to iterate through c1.


  
.
  


I think that that is right but I haven't tested it.  Basically each
object of the first collection becomes a bean that has a property of the
name of the inner collection.  

I hope that this help and works!  Other possibilities is to look at the
nested tags which has an iterate tag.

RE: Question for you Internationalization supporters

Yeah, if you truly want to support internationalization, then you have to
display all of your text with message keys.

Subject: Question for you Internationalization supporters


 

I don't have a need right now to support Internationalization but if I do
need to it seems like I would have to do much more than just the field names
but whole page content must be done with message keys.  I mean, what is the
best way to support not just form field names with different languages using
the message keys but whole page content that is say just a long description
with no form on it.   Every paragraph must be in a message resource.

 

E.g.

 

You must be doing this (not exact but abbreviated to shorten):

 

file1.jsp:









 

 

as opposed to doing this:

 

file1_en.jsp:



Hello!

Here is the paragraph that welcomes you in English.



footer copyright 1999

 

where you would have to figure out how to display the correct file1_en.jsp
as opposed to file1_fr.jsp.

 

 

I guess the first way with EVERYTHING in a message resource is the only way
to go?  Just curious what the best way and any pit falls for supporting
internationalization even with all the built in locale stuff already in the
framework?

Process Action before displaying index page...

2003-08-14 Thread Keith Pemberton
I have an action class that I would like to call before the index page
is displayed because elements of the index page are dependant on the
action class putting an object in the request scope.  I thought that the
best way to specify this would be to declare an action in the
struts-config.xml file with a path of "/" which would then forward to
the index.jsp page.  However, apparently the single root context "/" is
not recognized as a valid path by the struts-config file.  Anyone have
any sugguestions for how I can solve this problem?  Thanks in advance...

Hey everyone,
I've got some nice custom validations working using the validation
framework.  However, I'm having a hard time with one seemingly imple issue.
In the validation method in my custom validation class, how do I get the
value of the field I'm validating?
I found one example that did this, but it used deprecated methods.

RE: Still struggeling: howto get ActionForward to calling page

2003-08-07 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
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.

It looks like you're just trying to make sue that the password field is
filled in right?  If so, all you need to use is the 'required' validation.
Just replace requiredif with required, and get rid of the var section.  This
will make sure a password was entered.
Is this what you want to do?

The .NET team booked their airline tickets to the city before they

When they saw Jim on the train, they started to laugh at the Struts

When he passed by the rest room, he knocked on the door.

A ticket was slid out under the door. The .NET team looked
very serious after both teams arrived at the city. When they finished

Just a quick guess your paramaters are probably messed up?
This is what you have in your descriptor
> java.lang.Object,
>org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorAction,
>org.apache.commons.validator.Field,
>org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors,
>javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest,
>javax.servlet.ServletContext 
   
and this is what you have in your method

> Object bean, ValidatorAction va,
> 
>   Field field, ActionErrors
errors,
> HttpServletRequest request)

How do you expect Validator to find the method?
Go home take some rest you will think clearer :-)

Hey,
Thanks a bunch for the reply.  It's the validateRange method that's not
being found, the one responsible for doing the validation.
Has anyone else run into anything like this while trying to do custom
validation?

Well, so much for the helpfulness of this list.

I politely asked a few completely reasonable questions in the past few days,
and they were questions that could easily be of interest to others as well.
They were also pretty simple issues that I'm sure other people have
encountered or would have some sort of input on. Maybe people just ignore my
posts or something, but I've been trying all week to get couple simple
answers, and I'm not seeing any interest from anyone.

Maybe it's just a waste of time posting here.  You'll probably say I'm just
being in patient, but this list has such a fast turnaround that if a post is
not addressed within a few hours, it most likely won't be addressed at all.

You'll have to forgive my frustration.  Long work days trying to figure

The nightly builds are not working for now because of a problem with the

ValidWhen has been added to the source but, for now, you'll need to check it

It will be included in the 1.2 release which will come along a lot sooner
than the 1.1 release did :-)

1 DispathAction, 2 Forms. Possible?

2003-07-21 Thread Keith Pemberton
I am trying to combine my actions into one DispatchAction class.  I have
one JSP page that contains a form with its action statement pointing to
the DispatchAction with the appropriate parameters.  What I would like
to do is to use a different JSP that will perform a different action in
the DispatchAction class.  In other words, I want to add something to
the database through one form and then later be able to retrieve that
information and update the entry in the database through another form. 
As far as I can tell, though, there can only be one "input" specified in
the Action mappings for the DispatchAction.  Should I just create
another mapping for the Action class and specify the other page in the
input field for the mapping?  Your help is much appreciated!

Re: Reasonable to use EJBs for validation in ActionForm validatemethod?

The validation code of if the custom is already in the database should
be in your create method on the entity EJB.  Other validation code
concerning the webform (such as valid address) should go in the validate
method on the ActionForm that you have specified for the webform.  Hope
this helps.  Let me know if you need code samples.

The new version of IBM's Websphere Studio Application Developer, version 5,
has full struts integration.  The fact that struts is built right into the

Now if only WSAD would stop complaining about tiles definitions!

RE: Using JSTL tags instead of Struts tags

There isn't really any business logic with the struts tags either, and
there's generally no need for scriptlets.  I don't know anything about JSTL,
but I'm just not seeing the advantage here.  At least not yet.

I don't have any documentation but the only Struts taglibs I use are html
and tiles.  I replaced my usage of the bean tags with the 
tag and the Struts logic tags are all replaced with a combination of the
 and  tags plus the expression language.

The JSPs are remarkably easy to maintain and debug using this strategy
because there aren't any scriptlets or complicated business logic in them.

I've never used JSTL before, and I'm not sure exactly what it is.  Is it

it a tag lib that you have to download and put in your project?

Multiple Dynamic Parameter Alternatives

2003-07-08 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
Hey everyone,
I need to use multiple dynamic parameters for some of my links, and I have
this working nicely using a map.  Unfortunately, my boss doesn't like
scriptlets in the JSP pages, and wants me to find out about any
alternatives.  It's alright if there aren't, but I have to at least try to
find some!  So does anybody know of any alternate ways of generating
multiple dynamic parameters other than using a scriptlet to fill a map?  I
belive There are JSTL tags that can fill a map, but we don't even know what
JSTL is... I just saw the example in a previous post.
Thanks in advance!

Yansheng,

Since ActionForms are intended to be reused across multiple actions, you
might have different validation requirements depending on the context that
the ActionForm is being used.

One Action might require a certain field but that field may not be required
for another Action that is using the same ActionForm.

Hope this helps.

I kind of understand it.  ValidatorForm validates the form and
ValidatorActionForm validates the form based on action path.  But why would
you
prefer one over the other?  I mean you can achieve almost the same effect
with
either.

Thanks!

[OT] Scrollable Result Set

2003-06-25 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
Hey,
I'm trying to use a PreparedStatement to get a ResultSet.  I know how to get
a customized ResultSet if you're only using a Statement, but how can I get a
scrollable ResultSet with my PreparedStatement?
Thanks!

Here's my struts-config and my validation.xml.  I've also attached them, if
it's easier to look at that way.  I've only shown parts of my
struts-config.xml, enough to show one example action that isn't validating
right.

Struts-Config snippets:

Validation.xml:

If I should send any other files, let me know.
Any input would be great, thanks!

[OT] Empty Result Set

2003-06-25 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
Hey everyone,
This isn't really a struts question, but it's applicable.  I'm just
wondering how to find out if a ResultSet is empty or not after I execute my
query.  I've searched online, but I'm having a hard time finding much of
anything.
Can I just use:

if (myResultSet.next() )
{
empty = false;
}
else
{
empty = true;
}


Would that work or would that not do what I'm looking for?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

That looks ok to me.  Override the validate() method in your ActionForm
and see if it gets called.  Then have it call the super.validate() method
to see if the validator returns any errors.  Does anything at all happen
when you submit the form?  Are you using both javascript and server side
validations?

RE: Damn Validator...

My boss had me plug the Validator into a sample application for practice.
It was all cut and paste though, so there wasn't much real learning.  It
worked no problem.

I just copied the validator-rules.xml, and validation.xml into my app, and
changed the validation.xml.  I followed all the instructions and everything,
but no go.

Are you sure it isn't an XML parsing problem.  Does your server show errors
when loading?  I've seen things happen when the wrong order in your XML than

I'm sure there's an option to turn that off somewhere.  What version are you
running?

Websphere tends to be kinda slow.  I've had some issues with that,
especially in version 4 and version 5 integration edition.

Subject: JSP's taking too long in websphere


Hello everyone,

I work with strtus framework and use websphere. The problem is that it takes
a lot of time to open, load, or save my JSP pages. Could it be because
websphere compiles everything (even when I open the page?) if yes, is there
any option to turn that off?

I appreciate any suggestion

Damn Validator...

2003-06-24 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
Hey everyone,
I posted recently regarding my issues with the Validator plugin.  There were
a few suggestions, but I had already checked everything that was mentioned.
I'm going crazy, I've been trying for a several days to get this thing
working, but have gotten nowhere.  I'm posting some of my code.  If anyone
is willing to check it out to see if they notice any mistakes, I'd really
appreciate it.

Here are a few snippets from my struts-config.xml :

  


  


  

  








  





I have the necessary messages in my ApplicationResources, and my form beans
sublass ValidatorForm.

I've also attached my validation.xml and the JSP that uses the action that
I've shown above.  If there are any other files that I should send as well,
let me know.

I'm going nuts here!  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

For client-site validation you can omit steps 9, 10, 11, 12
However couple more steps are required:

9a)  in page header
10a) for form tag: onsubmit="return validate(this)"

So, 10 < 12 :-)

Also, I did not say that client-site validation is good and you need to use
it instead of server-site one.
The Tip says: If you have a problem when you test common validators, make a
client-validation first and than, when you fix the problem, return back to
server-site validation.

Client-site validation lights some problems that server-site hides. For
example, if you have a typo in validation.xml file, the page shows
javascript text stripped.

Common mistake is: You forgot something or misspelt something. Week ago I
sent condition set you need to satisfy to make common validator working. It
is bellow.

For example, we have a very simple jsp form and
want to use standard server-side validator 'required' for one form field.
Actually, it might vary, but to do so you have:

1) Resource (.properties) file with keys/values for standard validators (at
least - errors.required)
2) struts-config file should contain the reference to this resource file for
message-resources node
3) struts-config plug-in node should contain
className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn"
4) this plugin should have set-property with name pathnames that corresponds
to validator files (such as /WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml and
/WEB-INF/validation.xml)
5) validation.xml should contain form with name corresponds to form-bean
name
6) the form should have a field with property that corresponds to field name
we want to validate
7) this field should have a 'depends' attribute that corresponds to
validator name mentioned in /WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml (in our case - with
name 'required')
8) this field should have an arg0 node which attribute key corresponds to
existing key in resource file
9) form bean should inherit org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorForm class
10) form bean validate should call validate method of super class
11) 'input' attribute of action should reference to jsp page with validated
form
12) jsp page should contains  (or its substitute)

tile.pageTwo is an extension of the main layout tile, with a different body
defined.

Although there are other ways of doing it, with parameters and logic and

The forward you reference, tiles.pageTwo, what is it?  A jsp?

The reason I ask is that I have one main tile page that has logic:
tags to load different body components so that I don't need a separate
main tile page for each page of the form.  In other words, I have:

 mainTileFormPage.jsp  (loads the formBody.jsp's)
 formBody1.jsp
 formBody2.jsp
 formBody3.jsp
 formBody4.jsp

I'd rather not have a mainTileFormPage.jsp, and I'd rather not
embed the body tiles into the main tile form page.  Am I thinking
about this correctly?

I hope I made myself clear there... if not, let me know and I'll try
again.

How are wizard forms (multipage forms) typically done in the struts
framework?

I have done the following and I'm running into a few configuration and
usability problems that seem to indicate that I did something wrong.
I have the following:

* Main tile page that contains a header, menu, body and footer.

* The body tile contains parts of the form with multiple submit
  buttons, a "save", "cancel", "reset", "previous" and "next".

* When the user hits next or prev, the action redirects to a forward
  with a ?page=n so that the main tile page can display the correct
  body. 

* Based on the "page" parameter, the main tile page will change the
  body of the page to a different .jsp for each of the pages in the
  multipart form.

* A DynaActionForm that has session scope to maintain the data across
  pages. 

Does this sound right?  My issues are with that "page" property to
manage the content of the body tile - it doesn't seem natural in this
framework to do it this way.

As usual, any comments are really appreciated...

Thanks,

/greg

In the JSP, right after the code for the checkbox, use:


This allows the form submission to work correctly, without any messy code.

I use checkboxes to input some variables in a form and as long as I
insert new records, i.e. the checkbox variable gets set to false in the
form's reset method, it works fine.
But when I, say, edit the same record (and propagate the values of the
form in the reset method), I never can uncheck the checkbox if it was
set to true in the reset method.

Are there any solutions/work around for this?

RE: Help- logic:iterate tag

2003-06-09 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
As far as your question about rebuilding the table, I'm not sure exactly
what you're asking.  These sorts of things are generally done automatically.

I can answer your other question though.  The 'type' attribute of the
logic:iterate tag specifies the name of the class that is stored in your
collection that you are iterating through.  For example, if you just have an
ArrayList stored in the request with the attribute "someList", and it stores
strings that you want to iterate through, you would use:


(Do something with 'thisElement')


Does that help more?

Well, I'm not sure exactly what you want to know, but here's an example
of
how I used it in an application I'm currently working on:























"groups" is an ArrayList that I put in the request from the preceding
action.  it stores variables of type AnsmItem.  "ansm" is the local bean
name that you use within the iterate tag to access the current element
of
the collection.

Let me know if you have any questions about it, or if you want to know

but could figure out some of the attributes of this tag.

My confusion is following attributes

1. property="" 

so should this have a get and set methods in the ActionForm

2. Collection - when will this be used

3. indexID - when should this be used

Can some body throw some insight on these tags or some examples of

wondering if there's any method I can call to remove all the beans from the
session.  Does anything like that exist?  Are there any adverse effects of
removing something from the session if it isn't in there?  Do you know what
I mean?  I hope I'm not being confusing.
Thanks in advance.

RE: Help- logic:iterate tag

2003-06-09 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
Well, I'm not sure exactly what you want to know, but here's an example of
how I used it in an application I'm currently working on:























"groups" is an ArrayList that I put in the request from the preceding
action.  it stores variables of type AnsmItem.  "ansm" is the local bean
name that you use within the iterate tag to access the current element of
the collection.

Let me know if you have any questions about it, or if you want to know
anything else.

Subject: Help- logic:iterate tag


Hi

I am trying to understand the logic:iterate tag. I have gone thru the docs
but could figure out some of the attributes of this tag.

My confusion is following attributes

1. property="" 

so should this have a get and set methods in the ActionForm

2. Collection - when will this be used

3. indexID - when should this be used

Can some body throw some insight on these tags or some examples of usage.

Thanks

Dispatch Action help...

2003-06-08 Thread Keith Pemberton
Hi all,

I have a webform that I am trying to create and I have run into a
huge problem.  So, at the top of the form I have the action specified
and underneath I have defined the inputs using the struts taglib.  Now,
I can submit the form to the Action just fine and all the ActionForm is
filled in with all the correct values.  I want to be able to include a
list of dynamic links with the form information.  I have a 
defined and above that to  input fields.  Also, I have two
buttons (Add and Remove) that I would like to specify the Actions on
those two buttons to add an entry to the  or remove a
selected value in the  field.  So, here is what I have
tried so far.  I started using JavaScript to dynamically add the content
from the two input fields to the  box.  When I submitted
the form, though, I would only get a String[] from the  box
that was the values of the entries (not the values and the labels).  Now
what I am trying to do is to use a DispatchAction class and specify a
 around each  that points to the DispatchAction
class with a parameter that says which action to perform.  When the
program goes to the DispatchAction class, the ActionForm that I
specified in the struts-config.xml file is not populated with the fields
from the webform.  I have tried also to figure out some way to add the
parameters onto the request line but the only way that I can do that is
using the onclick javascript method and specifing "document.location =
"'/admin/EditReference.do?action=addOption&refTitle=' + refTitle.value +
'&refLink=' + refLink.value".  Now, this works fine for add the stuff to
the  because I have a bean in the session scope that the
refTitle and refLink are being added to.  But, when the DispatchAction
returns to the webform the other values in the webform do not show
anymore.  What I figure is happening is that the webform is not getting
populated because I haven't actually submitted the form when doing the
Add and Remove actions, so therefore that information is not re-put into
the webform when the DispatchAction returns to the webform.  Anyone know
what else I can do?

Sorry if this was confusing.  I can submit code if it would make things
clearer.  Any help is very much appreciated!  Thanks in advance!

html:hidden value

2003-06-06 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
Hey everyone,

I'm having an issue with setting the value for an  tag.
That form uses a bean called ansa.  I want to set the value of the hidden
element to the numberType property of a bean called ansm.  I tried putting a
 in the body of the html:hidden tag, but that didn't work.
How would I go about doing this without a scriptlet?
Thanx in advance.

RE: switch statement

2003-06-06 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
I appreciate everybody's replies, even though some suggestions were really
overkill for what I'm trying to do.

I think I'll just use the if-else statements, it's not really a big deal.  I
still wish that switch statements would support Strings, but that's a
different topic of discussion.

Thanks again everyone.

If your options are well known (if you were going to use a switch they
are), create a Map with the strings as the key and the integer as the
value, store in application scope; load them from a properties file or
some other source; this will give you more flexibility.

Would that work? A little bit more coding, but useful in the end.

Because having descriptive values for parameters helps make your code more

The reason I wanted to do this was to make my Action classes cleaner.  I
send a parameter to the Action to determine which item to pull from a
database, then forward to a certain page.

I didn't think I could get the switch to work, it was worth a try though.

The reason why it doesn't work is probably specific to the 
implementation of the language (maybe performance reasons), but a lot of 
people don't miss it -- nor would they agree, I suspect.  The reason is 
that you can usually add behaviors to objects so that a single 
polymorphic method call can usually eliminate all of the infrastructural 
work of writing a switch statement, so doing a switch on an object 
doens't make much sense in that context.  Of course, this is not 
applicable in all senses, such as your case with String which is final

Unfortunately, not all web containers will support this.  There was
apparent disagreement on the interpretation of the specification in this
area.  In particular, WebLogic does not support this.  I believe,
however, that in version 8.1 it's possible to do this, although I
believe you have to set some non-standard configuration flag.  I don't
know the details.

The alternative is to put all JSP pages into a security constraint on a
role that no user is set to.

switch statement

2003-06-06 Thread Kamholz, Keith (corp-staff) USX
Hey everyone,
This is more of a Java question than a Struts question, I hope you all don't
mind.

I'm just wondering if there is any way to use a String for a switch
statement, or if you are restricted to the true primitive types.
I haven't found a way, but it seems like something that lots of people would
want that wouldn't be hard for the Java developers to allow for.
Wouldn't you agree?
