RE: [OT] - Request against Session
Just to throw a little liquid (gasoline or water) on this fire... Let's say there are two ways to look at determining your current session state: #1 Is the Deterministic Automaton (for any set of inputs there is an output) #2 Is the Nondeterministic Automaton (for any set of inputs the output is unknown) Some, if not many, applications can have the user interface abstracted as a #1. If this is the case, you can simply pass a series of tokens (the inputs) to determine which page you SHOULD be on. In these cases, passing hidden fields is an highly desirable way of doing business (lends to clustering, no dead sessions hanging around, etc...) On the other hand, other types of interfaces don't lend themselves to this way of doing business: (i.e. they are dependant on internal or unknown factors to determine what to do/display). In these cases, may or may not need a session to determine where you are/where you are going to maintain the proper flow/state of the application. ??Comments?? -Original Message- From: Mark Lowe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 16, 2004 10:42 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: [OT] - Request against Session Ah.. I'm having a bad hibernate day instead today so I'm a bit more distracted from this debate. Truth is I'm pretty stupid, my simplistic way of looking at the world tells me that if i need to temporally store data collected from some forms that storing in the session is a way to do this. The api says. The session persists for a specified time period, across more than one connection or page request from the user. Seems to fit the bill to me. Each form is a request and i need a structure in the web tier to store the data. Until such a time when the user is ready to complete whatever s/he is doing and thus commit everything to the model. I even concede I'm out-gunned in terms of the folk advocating such things, but I just cant see why everyone's so against sessions. I'm in crisis attempting to resolve the incongruity between my and folk's, who know better than me, views, but I just don't get it. But when did sessions become the root of all evil? What are they there for? I even like the idea of dynamically generating hidden values as an alternative or an optimization but surely session is a valid tool to use. Perhaps my understanding of data-mining is erroneous but I fail to see how storing data collected via a view (in the web tier) for a short time has anything to do with it. Data mining is the process of discovering meaningful new correlations, patterns and trends by sifting through large amounts of data stored in repositories, using pattern recognition technologies as well as statistical and mathematical techniques. (Gartner Group). Another definition I found is Data Mining follows an inductive strategy of analyzing data where users apply machine learning algorithms to gain non-obvious knowledge from the data. [http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=073] I'm not suggesting any such thing, I'm not forming any analysis on the data collected and stored in httpsession as that would be silly. Nor do i see that the proposed alternative as having anything to do with datamining.

RE: Re-populating form after validate fails
I've seen this happen a couple of times with different people (myself included). It seems like the default (expected) behavior is: use the bean value unless it's blank, then use the html i.e. if html= and bean=text it should be the bean value if the bean= and the html=asdasdf then it should be asdasdf. And if you have html=foo and bean=bar then it should be bar. -Original Message- From: Paul Barry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2004 8:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Re-populating form after validate fails I finally figured this out. It was a stupid mistake. I had html:text property=username value= /. The value= overrides what was in the bean. Once I removed this, problem solved. Paul Barry wrote: If validate fails, your action won't even be processed. You can't use any of the forwards that you may set up for your action, because your action never executes, you can't do a mapping.findForward(failure). Once validate fails, it forwards to the input. The struts example has validate=false (it uses the default) for the LogonAction. It uses the validator to validate the form, so that is a different example. I found the answer to my extra credit question, you can use input=forwardName in your action if you have inputForward set to true in your controller config. I have this set up, but it doesn't change any thing. Here is the log of what happens when I fill in a username and no password: Processing a 'POST' for path '/myaccount/loginAction' Storing ActionForm bean instance in scope 'request' under attribute key 'LoginForm' Populating bean properties from this request Validating input form properties Validation failed, returning to 'myaccount/login' processForwardConfig(ForwardConfig[name=myaccount/login,path=/myaccount/logi n.do,redirect=false,contextRelative=false]) Processing a 'POST' for path '/myaccount/login' Storing ActionForm bean instance in scope 'request' under attribute key 'LoginForm' Populating bean properties from this request Looking for Action instance for class myapp.struts.actions.ForwardAction Returning existing Action instance From toString in my ForwardAction - Path=[/WEB-INF/jsp/myaccount/login.jsp],Form=[Username=sdfdsf,Password=] processForwardConfig(ForwardConfig[name=null,path=/WEB-INF/jsp/myaccount/log in.jsp,redirect=false,contextRelative=true]) I have removed all the info from these messages to make it easier to read. All of these messages are DEBUG messages that come from the RequestProcessor, except the toString that I am printing out near the end. This all looks like exactly what I would want to happen. The original POST goes to loginAction, the validate method is called and fails, so it forwards to myaccount/login. The form is stored in the request scope. When I call the toString method after the form has been populated, you can see the username property is populated. This makes sense. The request was forwarded from the original action to this action. The request parameters are still the same as the original request, so when the form is populated, the username field is populated. What doesn't make sense to me is that when I look at my form on the HTML page (which is /WEB-INF/jsp/myaccount/login.jsp in this case), the username property is not populated. This doesn't make sense to me. The html:form tag should see that the form property for username is populated, so therefore the 'html:test property=username' field should be populated with that value.

Subject: Re: Re-populating form after validate fails From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2004 12:50:17 +1100 To: Struts Users Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] oops, you could be right. I left that out when I was genericising my action tag... just trying to make it more generic. However, my point is still that when validate fails then the errors will not be empty... that is where your action tells struts to forward as: forward = mapping.findForward(failure); and in your struts entry you can see (in my example) that failure is defined as the same form (but it could be anything) an example of this is in the sample struts project in the struts tutorial where the login screen forwards to welcome if login was okay, or back to login if it failed. so I'm not sure if the input parameter is responsible for the forward... it could be the default?

RE: Question regarding ActionForms.
Welll,
Common misconception, but, technically all java calls are by value.
That is, there is no such thing in java as passing something by reference.
The hook is, the value passed in when something is an Object is actually a
reference (aka a pointer) to the existing object.
While you can manipulate the thing that this points to, you cannot reassign
it point to something else. I got all bunged up about this also and I think
it's a pretty important point that can easily be missed if you came into
java from another language that allows by reference calls.
By saying that objects are passed by reference folks are actually making
things more complicated than they need to be... For a really good
explanation see http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/java/passing.html

Hi,
I am currently using Struts 1.0.2 and have notice something with regard to
handling of ActionForms.
Why is it, that in the perform() method of my Action I am able to modify
the passed-in ActionForm and all modifications that I make to the ActionForm
in my Action have effect on the ActionForm in the session, without the need
to reset the modified form in the session. e.g.
public ActionForward peform(ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response,
)throws IOException, ServletException
{
MyForm myForm = (MyForm)form;
form.setMemberA(valA);
form.setMemberB(valB);
// why dont I have to do the following: session.setAttribute
(myFormName, myForm);
return success;
}
I thought that since Java passes method arguments by value and not by
reference, then I would have to reset my modifed copy back into the session
for changes on the form to be visible in the form in the session ?
Any insights on how this mechanism works would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sepand

RE: URGENT: getting a Session Attribute from ActionForm
I agree with Richard and Wendy, you probably don't need to actually
instantiate the form, get your bean from somewhere (the ether?) and do a
BeanUtils.copyProperties(dest,source). This will allow a nice decoupling of
your business code from your web application code Alternatively, I would
recommend writing a function to push the data into your form and simply pass
the form as a parameter to it.
i.e. in your action.execute you could do it like so:
execute (... ActionForm form) {
...
Person person = (Person)Session.getAttribute(person);
MyDataPopulator.populateFooData(form, person);
...
Or
...
Person person = (Person)Session.getAttribute(person);
Object myBean = MyDataGetter.getMyData(person);
BeanUtils.copyProperties(form, myBean)
...
I personally prefer method 2 at this point, but I can see the value of
method 1 (less moving data around).
I actually wrote an app doing all the data access in the forms and, to be
honest, I kinda like it that way too. The only caveat is that your app and
all your data/business code becomes Struts-only. If you can live with
that, then perhaps the road you are pursuing is ok.

I agree with Wendy. Prepopulate the form by instantiating it in the action
that forwards to the page that displays the page. Perhaps you can create a
constructor in the ActionForm that takes a userinfo object and invoke this
from your Action.execute method.

Subject: RE: URGENT: getting a Session Attribute from ActionForm
My aim is to get a session Attribute called as userinfo in the ActionForm.
In the ActionForm i have methods called getAddress,getAddress1,getAddress2.
These are all addresses of this person. So what i want to do is, if all the
info is already present in the db, i want to pre-populate it.If not the user
should beable to fill out the form.
In my getAddress() method i want to do something like this
public Address getAddress(){
Userinfo userinfo = session.getAttribute(userinfo);
Person p = userinfo.getPerson();
Address addr = p.getAddress(Appl Home Address);
if(addr!=null)
return addr
else
return new Address()
}
similarly
public Address getAddress1(){
Userinfo userinfo = session.getAttribute(userinfo);
Person p = userinfo.getPerson();
Address addr = p.getAddress(Work Address);
if(addr!=null)
return addr
else
return new Address()
}
This is the reason why i need to access the session Attribute

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] When the
user logons to the system, it takes him to a form. Based on the logon
values, if the user already has filled the form, form should be
populated with values the user can then modify existing
values save, if not the user can fill in the fresh form and save it.
For this i need to get this user logon info in my ActionForm so that
i can write the getters and setters in the ActionForm accordingly
Have you closely examined the struts-example webapp? It does exactly
what you're talking about. Search the archives for 'pre-populate
form' and variations, it's a common topic.
Once your user is logged in, I'm guessing you are putting something in
session scope. In your Action, you can call
session.getAttribute(userName) and use that to retrieve the values
from wherever they are stored. Then pre-populate the ActionForm and
forward to the 'edit' page.
I would not put user info in a hidden field on the form. It would
make it easier for someone to impersonate another user. (Depends on
how sensitive your data is whether that's an issue.)

String[] arr = str.split(:, 9);

Where the number 9 and 8 denotes number of occurences you want to

It holds the values of your INPUT, SELECT, TEXTAREA and other form controls. The options of a SELECT control are only used to help the user choose a value; its only purpose is to give the SELECT control a value and isn't itself a value of the form. Think of it this way: the form doesn't lose any data by changing your SELECT into an INPUT type=text. Confused? Think of it another way: The OPTION values don't get submitted, only the value of the SELECT. So: 1) The ActionForm helps you get to the values submitted with the form, and so suburb is required there because it's part of the form. 2) The ActionForm doesn't hold OPTION values, only the value of the SELECT. 3) You need a way to tell html:options what to show, and you can do it by specifying a collection that's in scope (doesn't have to be the request scope).

[Poll] Action Form data types
Here's my weekly(ish) question: For the purposes of this discussion, ActionForms also mean DynaActionForms and the like... Where does everyone cast their (String) request parameters to the 'proper' datatype? #1 My ActionForms only have Strings, I manually cast stuff somewhere else. #2 My ActionForms only have Strings, I let (BeanUtils, JDBC,...) cast stuff for me somewhere else. #3 My ActionForms have java Datatypes, I let Struts(yeah, beanutils, I know) cast stuff for me. #4 I use strings for everything, I don't need to cast. - This message and its contents (to include attachments) are the property of Kmart Corporation (Kmart) and may contain confidential and proprietary information.

I've not had ANY problems in struts-1.1 that where websphere specific

It could be a problem with the logic:redirect tag in you index.jsp (I've

Hi,
I am new to Struts and installed Struts-example, Struts-blank etc from the
stable 1.1 release at jakarta.apache.org/struts.
None of these work on my WAS 4.0. I get all sorts of errors and I dug
through news groups applying patches that never worked all of yesterday
trying to get one of them to work.
Then, I installed the struts-stub (struts 1.0) example from the tutorials on
the site and that one deployed perfectly. Does Struts 1.1 just not work on
WAS 4.0? On struts-blank I get

In that case, the problem is likely that the Action servlet failed to load
its struts-config.xml file. Under WAS, this is typically because it can't
access the proper DTD (are you behind a firewall?). On WAS 4.0, if you keep
a copy of the DTD under WEB-INF and alter the struts-config.xml DOCTYPE to
indicate
!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC -//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts
Configuration 1.1//EN struts-config_1_1.dtd
instead of the whole URL for the DTD it will likely be much happier. On WAS
5.0, you need to give it a URL that it can always access.

BeanUtils.copyProperties also works with DynaForms (They implement DynaBean and BeanUtils treats them (for the most part) as POJB's (c). I will concede that code completion is a definite plus. My only counter to that would be that, if I'm simply copying all my properties to another class (Torque Object, EJB, Business Object of some sort) why would I ever need code completion for my action forms?

[POLL] ActionFrom vs DynaActionForm
Next in my series of struts-user polls (please complain if this gets old). What sort of ActionForms does everyone use? #1 ActionForm #2 DynaActionForm Personally, I'm an advocate of the DynaActionForm as it seems to be able to do 80-90% of everything I need to do and everything else can be done in my business tier. I have, however, run into another person who is dead set against using it. His rationale is that you are then unable to do custom validation when you use the DynaValidatorForm... I think you can still do it, it's just a little more difficult, but, I'm polling to see if I'm out in left field...

RE: Action Design Question
You know, this is an enhancement I've been thinking about. You could certainly add it as a parameter in the action mapping. action path=/EmpTblDisplay type=ProjectAction name=EmpTblFormBean scope=request input=EmpTblDisplayTile validate=false parameter=Read forward name=display path=EmpTblDisplayTile/ /action And then you're all set... Of course, then you don't really need a dispatch action, you need to create your own version that reads this parameter instead of the request parameters.

I've got a lot of actions right now and I'd like to group related functionality into one action. I'm thinking of extending the DispatchAction and creating functions to search/view/create/update/delete/load my objects. I'd like to create separate action mappings for each function.

RE: [Poll] action mappings
That is exactly the method signature I use (well, different names, but
exactly the concept). I actually use
+++
Public string commandParameter = ProjectAction
Public List commandFoo(DynaBean bean, WebSecurityHolder security) {
..do stuff..
return ArrayList (or whatever) with a bunch of DynaBeans
}
Public DynaBean commandFoo(DynaBean bean, WebSecurityHolder security) {}
+++
Where Foo is the name of a request parameter. I have another class that acts
as a broker and maps the request parameters to these command objects.
The end result is for a request /servlet.do?ProjectAction=Foo
My BaseActionClass will automagically invoke the method Foo. In addition,
the websecurityholder has a simple method to allow you to query if the user
is in a specific role.
The cool thing is that if you use DynaForms (or DynaValidatorForms) you can
map a sql query straight into a DynaBean (or a list of) using BeanUtils and
therefore get automagic form population without a lot of muss and fuss.
I agree that #3 is probably better, but it seems that #1 is pretty popular
and I want to make sure I'm not missing some significant advantage to doing
it that way.

OK, I think I understand #1 now. However, I still disagree with it ;) If
you are using the same form bean and display components, you can define a
single action mapping and thus eliminate duplicate configuration information
in the struts-config file. I am a zealot when it comes to violations of the
DRY (don't repeat yourself) principle, so in my opinion #3 is superior to
#1. Before I get flamed on my strong stance here, let me just mention that
I do understand #3 is unworkable if you need to use different form beans for
some reason.
I like your variant of DispatchAction, and will likely do something similar
myself soon. So your Command class has a signature something like below,
right?
public List execute(ActionForm form, ISecurityInfo info)
One issue I have been grappling with over the last couple days is whether
your're really decoupling yourself from the Web by using an ActionForm as
your transfer object. The ActionForm class seems pretty tightly coupled to
the servlet API to me. Sure its methods don't return or take as parameters
anything directly from the javax.servlet.* API, but it does return
references to things like the ActionServlet which clearly are dependent on
the servlet API. Thoughts?

RE: [Poll] action mappings
#2 and #3 are, to me, flip sides of the same coin. Our team is really
divided over which is better. Currently, we're using #3 and I personally
think it's the best way, but, the argument that has been made that it is
much simpler to understand the application if there is a 1 to 1 mapping and
developers can more readily see the flow of information in a class diagram.
The other advantage that has been proposed is that you can then use your
containers security mechanism to limit access based on Role without
resorting to custom code.
My point of contention is that I don't want to have 4 classes for every
single screen (1 for Create, Read, Update, and Delete) plus 4 action
mappings... It may be ok for a simple system, but in a large system I can
see that becoming unmanageable very quickly. Not only that, but I tend to
make my apps very stateless, so, every single request needs to use the Read
operation so I end up with a bunch of duplicate code (i.e. Update and Create
also need to perhaps call read when they are done).

BeanMapping WAS: [Poll] action mappings
I think your way is perfectly acceptable. I like to try and use the
supplied interfaces (i.e. DynaBean) if they suit my needs and, to date,
DynaBean has served me well. You can use BeanUtils to map DynaBeans to
POJO's and visa versa (as a matter of fact you can to it to/from maps also
I believe).
My only gripe with using the commons-beanutils would be that I would perhaps
like to have a couple levels of DynaBean and perhaps at the simplest level
only have an interface like you describe (i.e. fewer methods in implement).
[OT] I guess I need to start using webmail, the disclaimer at the bottom of
all my messages is exposing all of struts-user to the risk of prosecution
(and me of termination).

However, I am hesitant to depend even on DynaBean. What if I want to use a

IDynaInputForm.java:
public itnerface IDynaInputForm extends IInputForm {
public Object get(String name);
public void set(String name, Object object);
/* and maybe some other getters/setters like the
ones in DynaActionForm */
}
MyDynaValidatorForm.java:
public MyDynaValidatorForm extends DynaValidatorForm implements
IDynaInputForm { }
Now my execute method becomes (* added for emphasis):
public List execute(*IInputForm* form, ISecurityInfo info)
Now I'm not depending on any APIs other than my own :)
What do you think? BTW, I like that you have methods that test if a user is
in a role in your WebSecurityHolder class. I have no clue how this didn't
occur to me earlier, and will be adding this to my API in the next few
minutes.

in the struts-config file. I am a zealot when it comes to violations
of
the
DRY (don't repeat yourself) principle, so in my opinion #3 is superior
to #1. Before I get flamed on my strong stance here, let me just
mention
that
I do understand #3 is unworkable if you need to use different form
beans
for
some reason.
I like your variant of DispatchAction, and will likely do something
similar
myself soon. So your Command class has a signature something like
below, right?
public List execute(ActionForm form, ISecurityInfo info)
One issue I have been grappling with over the last couple days is
whether your're really decoupling yourself from the Web by using an
ActionForm as your transfer object. The ActionForm class seems pretty
tightly coupled
to
the servlet API to me. Sure its methods don't return or take as
parameters
anything directly from the javax.servlet.* API, but it does return
references to things like the ActionServlet which clearly are
dependent on the servlet API. Thoughts?

Use the Action Token methods to prevent duplicate submits
There are methods built into the Struts action to generate one-use tokens. A
token is placed in the session when a form is populated and also into the
HTML form as a hidden property. When the form is returned, the token is
validated. If validation fails, then the form has already been submitted,
and the user can be apprised.
- saveToken(request)
- on the return trip,
isTokenValid(request)

Subject: Refreshing Form Submission and Duplicates
Hi,
I have a question about a bug in my application using a Struts Form.
This happens in multiple areas of my site, but the one example I will
use is a Message Board feature. The problem is that when a user goes
to a list of messages, fills out the form to post a message and ends
up back on the list page, the message will be submitted twice if they
refresh the page following the form submission. this has caused
duplicate messages throughout the message board, as it is the nature
of message boards to refresh the list of messages often to check for
new ones. Keep in mind, my app strictly follows the approach of the
O'Reilly book.
I'll try to make this easy to follow:
1. the user goes to a message board with a list of messages from other
users. this page is /messagelist.do the action looks like this:
action
path=/messagelist
name=messageListForm
type=myapp.framework.actions.MessageListAction
scope=request
forward name=Success path=/templates/messagelist.jsp/
/action
(the messageListForm is a struts form bean with a List of message
objects)
2. at the bottom of the page is a form to post your own message 3. the
user enters their Name, Subject and Message Body and submit the form
4. the form is processed by a Struts Action. the action tag in
struts-config.xml looks like this:
action
path=/messageinsert
name=messageDetailForm
type=myapp.framework.actions.MessageInsertAction
scope=request
validate=false
forward name=Success path=/messagelist.do/
/action
- From the naming convention, you can see that the Action inserts the
message into storage (database) and upon success the user is forwarded
to the same /messagelist.do action
Now, when the form is submitted and this is displayed, the URL in the
browser says:
http://myapp.com/myapp/messageinsert.do
I expect that this is correct because the HTML form itself was form
action=/messageinsert.do method=POST.
The user's submitted message will be found on the list of messages.
HOWEVER, IF THEY REFRESH THE SCREEN, THE MESSAGE WILL BE SUBMITTED
AGAIN. This should not happen. If i'm the customer, i've already
submitted the form, and now i'm seeing a list of messages. refreshing
should have no effect on the form that i just submitted.
Does anyone have a suggested fix?
Thanks all,
JR

RE: [repost] Special view information - ActionForm or request?
As far as the forms are concerned, I whole-heartedly agree that the current notion of populating the form one the way to getting mapped to the view seems pretty clumsy. I would almost advocate having the forms to be pulled (as above) out of some persistant service thingy (highly technical term). Of course, it would then require that we have some sort of populate or load method that will do something before we process anything. It seems also like a variation of how the dispatchaction works would be kinda cool. Allowing, either based on URL or some other request info, you to determine if you are doing a read or a write before you even get to the action would be the better way to go. Of course, that's just my perspective, but, your notion of the clumsiness of stuffing data into the form in the Action (especially after the request data has already been stuffed in there once) struck a chord with me. Evidently the development in struts is a little more active than I thought, I may have to start pulling down snapshots... -Original Message- From: Joe Germuska [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 1:29 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: [repost] Special view information - ActionForm or request? I don't have a very strong opinion, but for form *choices*, I've always preferred to put them into some page-accessible context before dispatching to a page. I wrote a class called DigestingPlugIn which was added to Struts after the 1.1 release which is designed to make it easy to put a menu like this into the application context so that it's always available to all your pages, even if they don't go through an action before display. Of course, if the choices are dynamic and specific to the request or the session, this doesn't work, but for things like sharing a menu of states or countries, it works pretty well. If you aren't comfortable using unreleased Struts code, you can get a library version of this class from http://demo.jgsullivan.com/struts/ Another alternative for request/session-specific options would be to extend the OptionsCollection tag to be smarter about how it gets the collection for iteration -- this would allow you to route people directly to the JSP without needing to go through an action class. We've been having a vigorous discussion over the last couple of days about the best way to prefill form *values* in a pre-validation context, and to be honest, I feel like this is a use case which Struts doesn't address very well. It feels clumsy to fool around with creating an ActionForm and populating it on the way to the view; should I just get over that? Or is this something about Struts that deserves a closer look with an eye towards addressing the use case more directly? I've been meaning to search the archives to see what discussions have come up, but since I'm sending this message, I guess I'll just dump it out there and see what people think...

RE: FormBean question...
This is by design. If you want to ensure this will not happen, you need to
set all the values to or null beforehand for fields that should be empty.
The short answer is change the field name. Especially if you are going to
store data in a form in the session you will have a big mess on your hands
if you have overlapping field names in multiple forms.

Subject: FormBean question...
I am using 2 different beans to populate 2 forms on 2 pages. However some
of the fields have the same names, as both customers and contacts have
addresses and both companies and contacts have descriptions and notes
associated with them. After entering a company the user is prompted to
enter some details of a person within that company with, hopefully, some of
the form already filled out (the address fields have default values for
instance taken from the company info that was just entered). However the
description field and the notes field are also filled out with the values
entered in the addCompany.jsp page and this should not happen.
This seems very strange as I've got 2 different formBeans used to populate
the fields. Here are the relevant parts of the strutsconfig file.
form-bean
name=companyForm
type=com.alan.crm.forms.CompanyForm
/form-bean
form-bean
name=contactForm
type=com.alan.crm.forms.ContactForm
/form-bean
and.
action
path=/addCompany
type=com.alan.crm.controller.AddCompanyAction
scope=request
name=companyForm
validate=true
input=/add/company.jsp
forward name=Success path=/addContactView.do/
forward name=Failure path=/add/company.jsp/
/action
action
path=/addContactView
type=com.alan.crm.controller.PrepareAddContactAction
scope=request
name=contactForm
validate=false
forward name=next path=/add/contact.jsp/
/action
As you can see they are using different types of form so I find it very odd
that the description and note fields are pre populated as well as the
address. The way I've tried to populate the fields I want pre-polulated is
by having the following code at the end of my addCompanyAction class
ContactForm contactForm = new ContactForm(new
Integer(companyId).toString(), companyForm.getAddress());
request.setAttribute(addContactForm, contactForm);
return mapping.findForward(Success);
and then, when forwarded to the prepareAddContactAction class, have the
following code.
public ActionForward executeAction(ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response,
UserContainer container) {
ContactForm contactForm =
(ContactForm)request.getAttribute(addContactForm);
//if addContactForm is not null in the request scope then we
should use it to populate our form.
form = contactForm == null? form : contactForm;
((ContactForm)form).setContactStatus(open);
return mapping.findForward(next);
}
But somehow I'm getting all the companyForm's fields populating the
contact form. IE. I put a company description in the addCompany jsp
and it shows up as a contact description in the addContact jsp, and I don't
pass the description field to the contactForm.
Is there something I'm not understanding about the struts architecture?
Help is, of course, greatly appreciated.

RE: Passing variables for logic:iterate
1st, Thank you, I didn't realize the logic:Iterate tag had those two properties, so you've indirectly saved me some effort. 2nd, After looking at the source code for the iterate tag, it looks like it tries to look up those two values straight out of the pageContext. This would imply to me, that it doesn't look up the property on the form as it appears you want it to do. (i.e. if you do a request.setParameter(pageOffset,5) in your Action Class) or use a html:hidden property=pageOffset/ tag on your jsp page, it should work correctly. I think both ways are valid, but my gut is that the way you where going at it is the way anybody unfamiliar with the tag would try to use it. Perhaps this is a candidate for refactoring, I'd personally like a way to choose either way. It just seems bad practice to have one field be sucked from the bean, and two others be read from the page context (and it appears to be a simple 2 line fix). -Original Message- From: Gregory F.

RE: What's the best strategy to handle this kind of thread issues ?
I think, however that this proposed solution (almost) entirely defeats the purpose of having a multithreaded environment. If you try and synchronize all responses and disregard duplicates, you will most likely end up with a slow and cumbersome application. I would say to achieve the sort of efficiencies you are describing one would be better served to look into the app/web server code. Doing this at a servlet level will most likely just get one into a big mess.

My undertsanding was that the browser will only show the response to the the second of the requests - forgetting about the first. The server of course hasnt forgetten about it and keeps processing (one hopes). Im not quite sure what happens to its response stream (null?) but the browser is now only waiting for the second requests response - which I presume is a seperate connection? Now if we are using tokens or some such mechanism to detect that its a second request and thus illigitimate then we can of course return some kind of error to the user instead of processing the request (since we know its already been processed). This however isnt very friendly. What we really want to do is to have the second request return the same response as would have been returned by the first request after it did its work. I have no practical solution for this :-( Hmm. Actually I have an idea. Not a good one, but maybe worth a passing thought: (Thinking off the top of my head here btw (and the following will not work in a distributed environment unless one has sticky sessions so that all requests for a particular session are gauranteed to be processed by the same JVM)): 0. Requests A,B,C,N come in in rapid succession and cause threads to be started in the container to process the requests - probably but not necessarily in the order they came in. 1. Thread B (or any other thread) is lucky enough to start running first and. Synchronizing on some global object (probably its own Class object if its a singleton) it checks the session for a token (under a key that was generated earlier and submitted as a request param in a hidden field). Not finding it, it creates it and stores it in the session, and proceeds to marshall the data needed to render a response - whatever it is the action is supposed to actually do. 2. Threads A,C,N also sync on the global object and check the session. Unlike thread B, they find the token, so they all call wait() on the token object. 3. Having doing the processing read/updated the db (or whatever), and obtained the necessary info, etc... Thread B is finally ready to render a response. It doesnt know however if it is the 'lucky last' thread that the browser is actually waiting for. What it does then is to add the necessary information to render the response to the session (perhaps the token could provide getters for it?), and having done so it calls notifyAll() on the token object, and then proceeds itself to forward to the view. 4. Threads A,C,N are woken up by the notify(), and proceed to grab the necessary info from the session to render the same response that B is now rendering and forward to the view. (NB: we shall assume that the view (jsp or velocity template or whatever *only* renders the view and doesnt change any of the information is uses to render the view (with one notable exception) - and that that info can be read by multiple threads at once!). One of these 4 threads is the lucky one (N in this example) that will actually have their response output on the browser. 3 of them are wasting time rendering to nowhere - but they are all rendering identical html, and the user will get an appropriate response page instead of an error. 5. After they have finished rendering and flushed the 4 threads all try to remove the token from the session. (You will note that if another request comes in at this point we are in trouble. We could of course leave the token in the session along with all the response data just in case but then we would run out of memory after a while...

We´ll call this base directory hello-world. Inside the hello-world base directory, create a WEB-INF directory in which to store application-level classes and information. For more information on the structure of a web application, see the Servlet specification. Copy Necessary Files The struts.jar file contains all necessary classes to run a Struts application, including the ActionServlet class and the taglib classes. In a normal binary distribution, the struts.jar file is located in the lib subdirectory of the installation. Copy it to the hello-world/WEB-INF/lib directory. The struts-bean.tld file contains all necessary taglib information to utilize the Struts message tag. In a binary distribution, the struts-bean.tld file can also be found in the lib subdirectory. Copy this file to your hello-world/WEB-INF directory. Create the .properties File A properties file is a file that contains a newline (\n) separated list of name-value pairs. In our hello world application, we need just one entry called hello.message. Property resources are located using the classloader, so make sure the properties file is in the CLASSPATH or that the servlet container automatically places the files in the CLASSPATH of the hello-word/WEB-INF/classes directory. Create a file called HelloWorldResources.properties, and save it in WEB-INF/classes/helloworld. This makes it accessible to the class identifier helloworld.HelloWorldResources. The following illustrates how one entry in the properties file should appear: hello.message=Hello Struts Developer Create the web.xml File The web.xml file (deployment descriptor) describes your web application. After creating this file, place it in the WEB-INF folder of the application. A typical Struts web.xml file defines a servlet identifier for ActionServlet using the servlet tags. Beneath the servlet tag, use init-param to define the parameters that initialize the servlet. For this simple application, we´ll define the servlet and one init-param to define where our application resources are loaded. We´ll also define a taglib reference for use within a JSP: web-app servlet servlet-nameaction/servlet-name servlet-classorg.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet/servlet-class !--Below is the init-param-- !--This defines where your application resources are located.-- !--It uses the classloader to find the file.-- !--The .properties extension isn´t used to locate resources.-- init-param param-nameapplication/param-name param-valuehelloworld.HelloWorldResources/param-value /init-param load-on-startup1/load-on-startup /servlet !--The following section defines a URI to use to retrieve the struts taglib -- taglib taglib-uri/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld/taglib-uri taglib-location/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld/taglib-location /taglib !--This section defines what file to open first if none is specified -- welcome-file-list welcome-filehello.jsp/welcome-file /welcome-file-list /web-app Create the Display Page The last step before actually running the application is to create the JSP display page. The display page is a normal JSP page that uses the Struts taglib and one Struts tag. The display page should reside in the root directory of your web application, in this case hello-world. We´ll name it hello.jsp, and it should look like this: %@ page language=java % !--Import the taglib -- %@ taglib uri=/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld prefix=bean % !--Now use the tag to display the message -- bean:message key=hello.message / error Error: 500 Location:

The application is fairly a large sized application. I would like to know which would be a better choice out of your experience. I have gone through the documentation @ http://www.theserverside.com/resources/articles/Struts1_1/article.html which concludes with the below paragraph If your project is a new one, the decision to use Struts 1.1 mainly depends on the amount of risk your project can take. Struts 1.0 is a proven technology but Struts 1.1 is still in beta. Besides, migrating backwards is always more difficult than migrating forwards. Once you start with Struts 1.1, it will involve a lot of hard work to go back to Struts 1.0. While the extra risk in using Struts 1.1 is generally very low (as the quality of work from Apache's developer community has been consistently very good), it is still a non-negligible factor you have to consider.

RE: Why would I want to use the ActionForm validate() method
The short answer is, you cannot always depend on javascript. There is a small percentage (Probably less than 1% I would expect) of users who either disable javascript or don't have it in their browser (e.g. lynx). In these cases you will have no validation. Also there are differences between how each browser handles the DOM and javascript in general. -Original Message- From: Madhu Nair [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 19, 2003 2:33 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Why would I want to use the ActionForm validate() method Hi, Why would I want to use the Struts ActionForm validate() method when I can achieve the same functionality using Javascript?

RE: Struts and synchronization (Off Topic)
I don't this this is struts related. Unless you have a lot of synchronized code called by your execute method, it sounds more like a Tomcat/Apache issue. If you do have a bunch of code in your execute method that needs to be synchronized you have most likely shot yourself in the foot and should seek medical attention promptly. One of my first attempts at a J2EE application was very much hampered by an over-zealous attempt to create my own pooling mechanism which had a number of flaws that required very serious surgery to function properly. off-topic In regards to your configuration, it sounds like you are using (at least) two physical tiers for your web/app-server configuration. By this, I mean you have 1 set of machines for the web server portion, and another set for the servlet portion (I'm omitting everything else right now). You want to check on your servlet machine in the conf/server.xml and ensure you have enough request processors for whatever load you are throwing at the machine. Most connectors have a minProcessors and a maxProcessors as well as an acceptCount setting among other things. Make sure they are set appropriately high. If you have long running servlet on a fat machine, bump your acceptCount down and your min/max processors up. This will cause the servlet engine to do more concurrent work instead of queueing up network requests. There are some configuration settings on the web server side set in worker.properties that can also be tweaked. The most important (probably) of these would be if you are load balancing one web server to multiple servlet engines. Finally, if you have a lot of large/static content on every request, put it on the web server for high load. /off-topic -Original Message- From: Micael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 11, 2003 8:20 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List; Struts Users Mailing List; Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Struts and synchronization This will also, of course, lead to better performance, period, in your case. Sounds to me like you need something like a WorkerQueue where you put requests in a regular queque and a thread pool of anonymous worker threads run a FIFO collection. This is fairly standard stuff with Doug Lea's stuff on concurrent programming (try oswego doug lea in google). If you are single threaded, you will not be able to consistent. And, if you are multi-threaded, in the model, then there are numerous things you can do, even if the WorkerPool (or whatever Doug calls it, I forget) is but one thread. You an return the thread while the database is doing its stuff. Why not? There are a lot of creative solutions, once you use concurrent techniques. I hope this is helpful. If you don't need to return the results of the database, but just to update, then you can really make it hum, having the database stuff just in queque until the right time. I do this with helper computers doing little tasks for me on modem based home computers (with the consent of friends). I just have them pass a notice of what there ip address is to a queque with a time, and when I need a little work done, I pass it via a tunnel to the freshest ip address, which is held at the application level. Of course, it is even easier with static ips. But, my friends, like me, don't have static ips. We are POOR! LOL.

RE: Signup Wizard and Edit mode
I usually do it exactly as you described, with a hidden field that is called Command or Action. There seems to be a split on whether this is a good practice or not. I, for one, like this way of doing it because you get to reuse code from the action class and you can very often do your CRUD logic without a proliferation of assorted actions for each noun. Some folks would suggest that you should create a new action class and refactor your design to move the logic that is shared either to a superclass or a helper class. I think this is also a valid way of doing it, but, can't see any overwhelming advantage over using a hidden field and sharing the same action class. If it eases your pain any, I am currently trying to poll users to see what their opinions on this matter are. We are currently building a framework/best practices application based on struts and this is a big point of divergence right now. We very much don't want to confuse novice users by saying you can do it this way OR that way without providing a good example of why/when to do it one way or the other. -Original Message- From: Erez Efrati [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 12, 2003 7:49 AM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: Signup Wizard and Edit mode I have a user signup wizard running through several pages.

RE: DynaValidatorForm question
My gut reaction would be to use a depends=required on both fields. This should give you the behavior you desire. -Original Message- From: Jones, Marty B. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 5:37 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: DynaValidatorForm question I have a class that extends Action (LoginAction) and references a DynaValidatorForm for form validation. I have noticed that if I directly reference a url say http://myserver/control/login that it instantiates the LoginAction as it should. My question is, what is the best way to not allow the Action class to be fired if no request arguments are on the request so that the login.jsp file will paint to allow the user to enter usename and password information in. I am pretty sure that I could use a normal ActionForm and in the validation method check to see if the username and password values are both null. If they are then return a mapping to go back to the login screen. Is there a way to do this with the DynaValidatorForm? Thanks in advance, Marty Jones Marty B.

RE: Buttons and Actions without forms
#1 you could just include javascript in the jsp #2 you could use validator to create a rule (I believe) that could do that for you. -Original Message- From: Todor Sergueev Petkov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 7:59 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Buttons and Actions without forms Hello everybody, I was wandering if Struts framework and taglibs permit to have a button and an action associated with this button with no forms however. Example - when I click on that button just a pop up window comes up ?

RE: Struts and Jetspeed
I'll agree, if you're already using Turbine, then struts is really a waste of time and effort. Just use the turbine framework (it's more complete anyway IMHO). If you really want to use struts for portlets, I'd recommend using struts in a different servlet context and then wrapping it in a portlet so you don't end up with a confused mish-mash of technologies. -Original Message- From: Joe Germuska [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 9:49 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Struts and Jetspeed At 22:22 -0600 7/30/03, jakarta-lists wrote: Has anyone successfully use Struts with Jetspeed? I'm looking into the possiblilty of having jetspeed do the authentication, templating and layout.. while struts will handle the control of the app. It sounds like a good idea to me, but I haven't worked with struts enough yet to know for sure and I would like to know about pitfalls if any. It doesn't sound like there's much left for Struts to do once you use Jetspeed (or Turbine, its underlying framework) for authentication, templating, and layout. Once you're talking about providing content to individual portlets in your Jetspeed installation, you can do it with much less work than adding Struts in to the mix.

RE: struts access to protected jsp
You should be able to go to cramerLoad.do and all will be well. I put my .jsp files in WEB-INF with not problems...

JSTL and Struts
I'm in a quandary. We're examining a way to do simple formatting of our model data. For example, when currency data comes out of the database, it needs to be rendered as $1,000.00 or whatever. This is a very common thing and we where going to do it using a custom formatting object to do this when we move the data from the model into the form (and visa versa). After some examination, it turns out the JSTL does this, but it doesn't appear to support it for input tags. How is this possible!? Am I missing something? Why would that not be the case, how often (in a business app) would you need to format data for display, but not for edit? Does anyone have any insight on best practices/direction in this arena? Typically we would do this in a utility class in the manner described above, but it seems a little clunky doing it this way given the state of the current tag-libs.

RE: JSTL and Struts
I did it that way in a previous application and it seemed to work well, but it just seems like this functionality is so necessary that it would be built into the presentation taglib (and perhaps with the validator framework). Is it safe to say that perhaps it has not been implemented or discussed because it is an obvious shortcoming and something that will be better addressed by JSF than by rewriting chunks of the delivered stuff? -Original Message- From: Vic Cekvencih [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 10:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: JSTL and Struts One way is to localize inside the getter of the formbean. .V Mainguy, Mike wrote: I'm in a quandary.
