Re: Database backed forms
I'm not sure if this would work, as dynamic forms have their configurations frozen when the application starts up. You would have to simply write your own version of the dynamic form class, overriding any behavior that you wish to change. I don't think this would be too hard to do.

Re: Can a a href be made to function as a 'submit'
Sure, all you need is a bit of JavaScript that submits your form tag.
The 'myForm' form is representative:
form name=myForm
input type=text name=someField1/
input type=text name=someField2/
/form
a href=javascript:submitForm();Click/a
And finally, the function:
script language=JavaScript
function submitForm() {
document.myForm.submit();
}
/script
That should do it.

Re: Can a a href be made to function as a 'submit'
Assuming I know what you're talking about, this is also pretty easy to address:
The form is hidden, with one hidden field. It doesn't have to be hidden,
certainly.
form name=myForm
input type=hidden name=partIdx/
/form
The link calls the JavaScript function, passing in the current parameter.
a href=javascript:submitForm('%=index%');Click/a
The function will set the value of the form field and call submit.
script language=JavaScript
function submitForm(indexVal) {
document.myForm.partIdx.value = indexVal;
document.myForm.submit();
}
/script

Re: inputting dates
Oddly enough, I was going to write about how to handle this in my blog today. What I
do to manage this is to use an object that wraps a java.util.Date and provides getters
and setters for the necessary fields, such as hour, minute, day, month, and year.
Such an object might look like:
public class DateWrapper {
private Date d;
public DateWrapper(Date d) {
internal = d;
}
public Date getDate() {
// return the updated Date instance.
}
public int getHour() {
// return the hour as an int, either using a Calendar instance or
// by parsing it out via SimpleDateFormat.
}
public void setHour(int hour) {
// set the hour in the date using a Calendar instance.
}
}
I'm sure you can figure out the rest of it.
The DateWrapper object is then used as a field in your ActionForm or DynaForm. Then,
in the JSP, just use the appropriate property names in your html:select lists:
html:select property=startDate.hour
...
/html:select
html:select property=startDate.minute
...
/html:select
If you just want to present the underlying Date instance, just do something like this:
fmt:formatDate value=${myForm.map.startDate.date} pattern=-MM-dd h:m a/
Hope that helps. This is the same mechanism I use and I'm having great results with
it.

Re: forward to new window.
IMO, this isn't trivial, but it's solvable. The problem is that you have to get the client to behave in a certain way based on what's been submitted to the servlet. I think I would try to solve this with a JavaScript RPC call, in which the form was submitted as a background process and the action returned the appropriate JavaScript to either open the new page in this same, or a new browser window. Not easy, but relatively portable if done right. All of the other ways I can thing of to do this have serious problems. I'm interested in hearing what others think.

Installation To install, simply extract the zip and replace your existing xdoclet-apache-module-1.2b4.jar with xdoclet-apache-module-sm-1.2b4.jar. Ant --- Since this feature runs when the strutsconfigxml XDoclet target runs, you just use that Ant task. An example is below: target name=webapp-config taskdef classname=xdoclet.modules.web.WebDocletTask classpathref=project.class.path name=webdoclet/ webdoclet destDir=etc/web excludedTags=@author,@version,@todo mergeDir=etc/merge fileset dir=src include name=**/*.java/ /fileset strutsconfigxml destDir=etc/web mergeDir=etc/merge version=1.1/ /webdoclet /target Usage - This patch to the XDoclet Apache module provides support for Struts DynaForms. The following tags are supported: Class Level Tags: @struts.dynaform Attributes: name - The name of the form bean in the config. [required] type - The type of DynaForm. [required] description - Descriptive string. [optional] className - The config class. [optional] Method Level Tags: @struts.dynaform-field Attributes: name - The name of the form field. If not specified, the property name of the method is used. [optional] type - The type of field. If not specified, the return type of the getter is used. [optional] initial - The initial value of the field. [optional] className - The config class. [optional] There is a simple example in the examples directory. Hacking --- Adding this functionality didn't require any code changes, just a small change to the struts_config.xdt template, and the addition of the struts_dynaform.xdt. If you want to add additional functionality, you'll probably want to start with struts_dynaform.xdt, which can be found in the xdoclet/modules/apache/struts/resources directory once the JAR is extracted.

Re: What's the best choice for connection pooling with Struts and PostgreSQL

Re: [OT - JavaScript] Setting value on a html:select/

[ANNOUNCE] Struts Message Resource Doc
Afternoon all, I've written a short article detailing usage of the message resources functionality with Struts. It seems like a lot of people are having problems with it, so I'm hoping that this will shed some light on this topic. You can find it at: http://www.systemmobile.com/articles/strutsMessageResources.html Feedback is appreciated. -- Nick Heudecker SystemMobile, Inc.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Struts Message Resource Doc
1. Setting the null attribute to false will display missing resource values as ???key??? instead of displaying null. That's not totally accurate, but it gets the idea across. Perhaps you could mention how the string is actually constructed??? 2. The Internationalization is not correct (unless you meant it in a different context). See o.a.s.u.MessageResources. Good points. I'll make corrections tonight. 3. You didn't mention the Struts-Atlanta Just kidding ;) I wasn't aware that there was anything noteworthy about ATL. :) -- Nick Heudecker SystemMobile, Inc.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Struts Message Resource Doc
You bring up a good point. There are many corner cases with ActionMessages.
While I didn't try to cover all possible uses, I did try to cover the use cases
that I experience 90% of the time.
The specific use case that you point out would be a nice feature enhancement.
Essentially, you would have to allow the value of a message resources key to
be passed in as an argument. However, isn't this essentially what the
Validator does when a field fails validation?
I have updated the article WRT James' comments. I think it's more correct
than it was, but continued feedback is always appreciated.

Nick,
It is a consice article on message resource usage. Thanks.
In our scenario, for the sake of maintainablity given the number of entries
in the resource files, we have separate resource files for Labels and
Messages. Sometimes you have to show a message like:
First Name is required.
where First Name resides in locale specific resource file while {0} is
required. resides in the local specific messages resource file.
Now assume that this message would be returned by the validate() method of
an ActionForm. How would you suggest to do that? It maybe a nice addition to
the article.

XDoclet Support for Struts DynaForms
Hi, I couldn't find a patch to XDoclet to support generating dynaform configs in the struts-config.xml file, so I rolled my own. The download bundle has an example, a README, and a jar that *should* be a drop-in replacement for the existing 1.2beta4 Apache module. You can find it here: http://www.systemmobile.com/code/xdoclet-apache-module-sm-1_2b4.zip No code changes were made, just changes to the templates. All of the old functionality is preserved. -- Nick Heudecker SystemMobile, Inc.

Adding supported types to DynaForms
