Chain of Command

[McRobb, John]

Are there any good design guidelines for implementing a chain of
Command/Workflow like approach to actions.

ie a specific action can drive a number of different flow of pages.

a->b->c->d->a
a->c->a
a->b->d->a

Thanks

Branding/Mutli Channel

[McRobb, John]

Has anyone used Struts for Branding ie using Tiles and just deploying with a
different template and perhaps a different file for filed tags ala
internationalisation.
Secondly has anyone used it for supporting multi channel and if so what is
the preferred route ie using XSLT or using SUN's mutli controller pattern
with a sepearte controller per channel.

Thanks

John

RE: pageContext is null?

[McRobb, John]

I've managed to overcome this by taking it out of the constructor, but all
that seems to be set for struts on the request and servletContext is:

MODULE and MESSAGE

Any ideas

Thanks

John

pageContext is null?

[McRobb, John]

I am writing a custom Tag:

public class InRoleTag extends ConditionalTagBase 

I try and get the roles but it appears that the pageContext is null

ServletRequest req = null;
if (pageContext != null) {
  req = pageContext.getRequest();
}
else
  System.out.println("page Context was null");
  
if (req != null) {
   Enumeration e = req.getAttributeNames();
   while(e.hasMoreElements())
  System.out.println(e.nextElement().toString());
}
else
   System.out.println("request was null");

if (config == null) { // Backwards compatibility hack
config = (ApplicationConfig)
pageContext.getServletContext().getAttribute
(Action.APPLICATION_KEY);
}

I got a null pointer exception previously and with the trace above it is
down to the pageConext being null.
It's on WebSphere 4.04 Single Server Edition.

Thanks

John

Repeated Values

[McRobb, John]

If we have repeated values in a form say address which we have repeated 4
times (poor example really)

Anyway on the business object layer we will be storing these addresses as 4
instances of the address object.
The beanutils offers a copy properties method that copies simple ActionForms
to Business Objects using reflection,
is there any way we can use something similar to populate mutiple objects 

ie
AddressLine1_1
AddressLine1_2
AddressLine1_3
AddressLine1_4
>  will be copied and cobverted to the correct type to AddressLine1 in the
> four different objects.

SSL

[McRobb, John]

We are using struts 1.1 and tiles.
How do we specify if a tiled page should be served using ssl or not?
i.e like we do for a jsp in the web.xml

Thanks
