Subject: iterate tag with nested collections?


Hi,

I am trying to add a multi-level report to a struts application.
So the report structure will be like this:

Top Level Details
Level 1 Details .
   Level 2 Details..
   Level 2 Details..
   Level 2 Details..
   Level 2 Details..
Level 1 Details .
   Level 2 Details..
   Level 2 Details..
Level 1 Details .
   Level 2 Details..
   Level 2 Details..
   Level 2 Details..
   Level 2 Details..
Level 1 Details .
   Level 2 Details..
   Level 2 Details..


I have set up my Value objects like so:

ReportVo (top level)
inside the ReportVo I have a collection of Level1Vo value objects
inside each instance of Level1Vo I have a collection of Level2Vo value
objects. 

This info is passed into my struts jsp page.
I am able to show attributes in the top level (ReportVo) and the 1st level
(Level1Vo) value objects just fine.
My problem now is to get the Level2Vo value object attributes to show up.


Here's a hacked sample of the jsp.  What I am trying to figure out is how to
get the nested iterate tag to work.  Each Level1 value object contains a
collection of Level 2 objects.


 

Top Level:
Total Number of Submitted Applications:  
Total Face Amount: 


1st Level



   

  
Insured Name:  
   
 
 



Any thoughts on if this could work using struts tags or do I need to resort
to java code?

Thanks,
Michelle

I have instances of beans within the ActionForm and then access them with
the name of the bean and the name of the property in the bean when using
them in the JSP.  The only problem is having non-Strings in the bean. You
need to do some sort of conversion within the ActionForm to get around this.

We have a bunch of existing beans that we'd like to use w/ ActionForms.  For
each bean we'll need to obviously expose the getters/setters in the
corresponding ActionForm.  The ideal scenario we'd like to see happen is
prevent the ActionForms from having all the corresponding getters/setters
hardcoded into it.  We're ok w/ coding the validate() method for each class
by hand, but we'd like to avoid having to code each ActionForm w/ a
getter/setter (even if it is templated out for us by a Struts plug in or
even a custom written batch file).  

Has anyone implemented something like this?

Unless I'm misunderstanding, I'm not sure if that will do what we're hoping

When you use the html:form tag (and corresponding input tags from the html
tag lib) on a JSP page there's error checking to make sure you have a
corresponding get/set method in the ActionForm.  If we have the original
bean as an instance variable in the ActionForm and have no other
getters/setters hardcoded into the ActionForm, won't that cause a

RE: Form -> Bean conversion

propertyOfBean is a protected member of the bean and is exposed with a
public get method.  The struts tag calls the get method of the property.

Very interesting

So in your example is 'propertyOfBean' exposed in 'nameOfBean' via a public
get method or simply as a public data member?  In other words, if I were
just accessing the value via a scriptlet would I say
"nameOfBean.getPropertyOfBean()" or "nameOfBean.propertyOfBean"

RE: Form -> Bean conversion

I wrote conversion methods for nonString properties of the bean within the
ActionForm to do the conversion.  There is probably an easier way but that
was the simplest I came up with.

This isn't exactly struts related...  How did you add back-port the
tags?  I ran jar uf struts.jar org\apache\struts\taglib\logic\EmptyTag.class
and the same for NotEmpty.class.  I also copied over the struts-logic.tld to
my WEB-INF directory.  When I restart Tomcat and try to access a page that
uses the notEmpty tag I get "Unable to load class
org.apache.struts.taglib.logic.NotEmptyTag".  Do I need to add the class
files to the manifest of my struts.jar or is it something else?

Just to confirm what Craig said, back-porting them to 1.0 appears to be 100%
problem-free. Once I saw those tags and was informed they were in the
nightly build, I grabbed them (along with TLD stuff, etc.) and dropped them
in our existing struts.jar (1.0); the tags work flawlessly and are quite
useful. :-)

If you're planning on waiting for a 1.1 release, we haven't really talked
about it yet.  I know there's quite a bit of stuff yet to integrate - in
the mean time, you could either use a 1.1 nightly build, or back-port

Iterate with offset=parameter

[MacKellar, Kimberly]

I am trying to iterate over a Vector using the logic:iterate tag.
Everything works fine until I try to set an offset. 
The offset for where I need to start iterating from is passed in as a
parameter to the page and I retrieve it using 


when I try to use fromRecord in the iterate tag 
  

I get the following on the page
javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.String

This makes sense since fromRecord is of type String and offset is expecting
an int or Integer.

So I then tried to make the offset a variable using
<% int fromRec = Integer.parseInt(fromRecord); %>   and
  

This doesn't throw an error but doesn't set the correct offset and is always
starting from 0.  

How can I retrieve the parameter and use it in the iterator?

RE: findForward and Errors

This doesn't work unless e.getMessage() returns a String that is an entry in
your ApplicationResources.properties file.  I did something similar but
added an entry in the ApplicationResources.properties file like 
error.exception = "Exception: {0}". 
 
Then when I create the error I use 
catch (Exception e) {
ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, new
ActionError("error.exception", e.getMessage()));
saveErrors(request, errors);
return mapping.findForward("failure");
}

And you need to save the errors.

an attribute within the response object and pass the error that way but I
thought I could use something like I'm trying to do below.

errors.add("error",new ActionError(e.getMessage());

You can also look at putting in the Expires HTTP Header parameter to force
the client to hit the server each time.  This forces the back button to go
back to the webserver.

//These Response Headers prevent Client side cache of web pages

You can't really use the javascript:history.back() function to hit the
Action class as the history.back does not even hit the webserver.  It is an
internal "client" operation, like most javascript is.

One solution you might want to try is to create a stack object for each
session to track what "actions" they have run.  Then you can implement a
fairly decent "back" button.

Hi there

Like most of you, I am using the -tag to show errors on the JSP
page. My problem is, that I don't get any message on the JSP page. I do the
following check before I return to the form:

if (!errors.empty()) {
saveErrors(request, errors);
return (new ActionForward(mapping.getInput()));
}

When I check the values, "errors.empty()" it is set to false, and the value
for "errors.size()" is 1.

On the JSP, I am using a template with header, main, and footer. In the
header I declared this:

<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>

database access. What is the most recommended way of
achieving this in Struts ? Should I make them members
of OurActionServlet, which is derived from
ActionServlet ?

Please suggest.

Regards.

Subject: REPOST: A hint how to do the following with a bean.


Hi,

Need a hint on how to do the following:

I have a bean which is a vector of items. Each item object has a name,
description price etc. When the user selects an item I create this vector
and pass it to a page which iterates through the vector and creates a table.
Something like:

name desc price storeroombuyer

The table I get has the same data for the first two rows. I want to take out
those first two rows and place them into the table caption. Without
iterating through the vector how can I get the name and desc property of the
first item. That data is going to be the same for all the other items in the
vector.

Thanks for any help.

Form Beans and Data Beans

[MacKellar, Kimberly]

I have a few classes that extend FormBean that have as an instance variable
of type Adjustment which is a bean with all the getters/setters.  The
Adjustment bean contains members of type float.  When I use the nested
notation in the JSP to access a value in the Adjustment which hasn't been
populated yet I get 0.0.  I want to make the member variables in the
FormBeans of type String so this doesn't happen.  What is the best solution
for this so that I can reuse the Adjustment bean in these FormBeans?  I've
seen mention of helper methods to do this but can someone give me a concrete
example?

TIA,

Hi All,

when i submit the form containing this snippet it gets sent to an action
that contains  the following code
...
EditAssociationsForm assocForm = (EditAssociationsForm)form;
String[] blah = assocForm.getNewAssociations();
if(blah == null) {
cat.debug("blah is null");
}
else {
cat.debug("blah length=" + blah.length);
for(int x=0; x" which means reset is being called then the value is being set.  I
don't see any other print outs from this code to indicate reset is being
called again.

and my struts config contains

Does anyone see why the reset appears to be getting called or why the length
of the array is always being set to 0?  

My head is starting to hurt from banging it against the wall...

Mutliple lines of Form Fields from Iteration

iterate over the vector to print out the values contained in tags as form
fields that will then be submitted and hopefully put back into the Vector of
Tags.  I know how to print out the vector of tags but I'm wondering if I

the form?  Does it get put into the vector as tag values or something else?

Poolman question

I know this is off subject but I can't find a poolman mailing list and I

I'm running struts-1.0 on a windowNT machine with tomcat-3.2.3.  I have
multiple webapps running under the same server.  I just set up a new webapp
that uses poolman.  The problem is that when I try to access the datasource
I've configured in the new webapp, poolman appears to be looking in other
webapps' WEB-INF/classes directory for the poolman.xml file and isn't
finding the data source for the new webapp.  Has anyone else seen this or

When you call "conn.close()" it can throw an SQLException so you should put
it in a try catch block with an empty catch.  But this is not the problem
you have.  In your case conn is already null.  So you should have something
like this:

try {
if (resultSet!=null) resultSet.close();
if (statement!=null) statement.close();
if (connection!=null) connection.close();
} catch (SQLException sqle) { }

Hope that helps :)

Whilst we're on the exception handling design, you could consider the
following design...
The point is that under all circumstances, you want to close your resources,
so consider putting them in a finally block. That way you don't have to
duplicate your close statements...

try
{
...
}
catch(SQLException e)
{
...
}
finally
{
try
{
 if (null != conn)
 {
  conn.close();
 }
 ...

I ran into this problem with Poolman 2.1b, as well.  The problem isn't that
the connection is null, it's a particular String variable that's apparently
used to identify pooled SQL statements.  I only took a cursory glance at the
code, so I don't know offhand why it's null.  Disabling prepared statement
pooling in poolman.xml got rid of the NullPointerExceptions, however it
caused another even weirder problem.  After making my first stored procedure
call, all subsequent calls would act as though they were executing properly,
but no changes would actually be made to the database.  I got fed up and
switched my project over to use version 2.0.4 instead, which thus far seems
to work much better.

so consider putting them in a finally block. That way you don't have to
duplicate your close statements...

try
{
...
}
catch(SQLException e)
{
...
}
finally
{
try
{
 if (null != conn)
 {
  conn.close();
 }
 ...
 }
     catch(Exception)
 {

 }
}

RE: How to Forward from one action to another action

[MacKellar, Kimberly]

You need to add your object to the request or the session. 
Try adding 
if ("request".equals(mapping.getScope()))
 request.setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute(), oForm);
else
 session.setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute(), oForm);

Where your struts-config.xml contains something like

Subject: How to Forward from one action to another action


Hi All,

Here is the code which i've written in my action class.

 ABCustomerInfo[] oCustInfo = remote.searchAddressBookByCriteria
(iPartnerId,iBusinessId,data,true);
 System.out.println("Number of Customers "+oCustInfo.length);
 oForm.setCustomers(oCustInfo);
 ActionForward forward = mapping.findForward("browse");
 return (forward);

   Here it gets the data from the remote object. But when i go to the
forwarded browse file, i am getting customerinfo object as null. It says it
is not set. Can anyone help me to fix this?

Thanks and Regards

Leena

RE: Problem with bean:define?

[MacKellar, Kimberly]

This is happening because when you click submit and go to validate(...) in
your form class a new form is created and populated with the request
parameters from the JSP page.  So if you don't have postDate as a hidden
field or put the form in session the value will be lost.  Ted posted a
message on this topic not too long ago about how to handle this situation.

Well, I did a test and bean:write displays the date the first time thru, but
then displays nothing when I return to the page to display validation
errors?  Why would this value be getting cleared in my form?  I null out all
my fields in the reset method including this 'postDate' property.  Any
ideas?

Is there a way to achieve  characteristics with an 
image?  I'd like to call isCancelled() in my perform() method when a cancel
image is pressed.  Does the HTML tag library support that?
