Betreff: Question about  (again)
I've been able to display a collection of beans using the  
tag in conjunction with with the  tag but I am 
stuck with a problem. I get complains from struts that it has a type 
mismatch when it tries to set my attribute for the  field.

I have public ArrayList getSelection() and public void 
setSelection(ArrayList input) . It seems the problem is at setSelection.
Does anyone know how to make this work?  I'm a little confused by this 
and I'm sorry if it doesn't make sense in the first read. THanks

Re: Help with optionsCollection error

[Peng Tuck Kwok]

Ok here goes :
The original method for the attribute recipients was :
public void setRecipients(Vector input)
That caused the errors of the type mismatch ,
So I tried changing it to take to array of strings, like this
	public void setRecipients(String [] one, String [] two)
It doesn't complain about anything, but it doesn't pass any values to it 
as I have tried putting in a few println statements in there.

Re: Help with optionsCollection error

[Peng Tuck Kwok]

You say :
My guess is the BeanUtils.populate error is because you wrote an indexed
setter method
Which bean would that be? The form bean or the collections of beans that 
 the property refers to ?

and overloaded the String[] or Collection setter method.
Don't do that.

Help with optionsCollection error

[Peng Tuck Kwok]

I've sucessfully managed to display a multiple options in 
but when I click on submit I get errors.
One condition is when I don't click on any of the options , this error
would be failed to obtain specified collection when ever I try to access
the bean attribute that contains the values. The bean attribute is a
vector FYI.
The second condition is when I click on one or more of the options and
click submit I get a beanutils.populate error, type mismatch.
 

   
The form name is compose and recipients is a vector.

Does anyone have a idea where I'm going wrong?

TIA

Right,  can be use two ways :

- with a collection attribute: the collection must contain beans that have
two properties, declared by "property" and "labelproperty" tag attribute.
This property will be used to render the HTML option value and label.

- Without collection attribute. Depending if "property" and/or
"labelproperty" are set, tag will look for collection(s) in scope or a
formBean property that will contain values (and label) for HTML option to
render

Struts form question

[Peng Tuck Kwok]

I have a login page which has form called logonForm which will be 
validated, I need this form data to presist and the traditional way 
would be to put into the session. In the struts-config I set the scope 
of the form to session but that actually results in the form not being 
able to validate properly , regardless of whether the form on the page 
was filled out. With this I keep getting validation errors and the 
errors would snowball on the page. If I set the scope in the 
struts-config to request then things are ok. Can anyone help ?

Re: Some questions about struts

[Peng Tuck Kwok]

Yes, I did notice that they used struts which was also the reason I 
poked around there in the first place hoping to learn a thing or two :) .

Craig R. McClanahan wrote:



The server.xml file is read by the org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina
class - see the createStartDigester() method for where it sets up all the
processing rules.  This is invoked before any of the webapps are actually
enabled.  The web.xml file for a particular web application (along with
the default configuration file $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml) is read in
the org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig class -- see the
defaultConfig() and applicationConfig() methods.  The Digester rules are
set up in createWebDigester().  This happens at one of several times:
* At startup time, when a  element is found in web.xml
* At startup time, when a directory, WAR file, or XML file is
  found in the "webapps" directory
* While Tomcat is running, if a new WAR or directory is added
  to the "webapps" directory
* While Tomcat is running, if you use the Manager webapp's
  "install" or "deploy" commands.

The Tomcat admin webapp knows how to write back out to server.xml, but it
doesn't actually *read* that file.  Instead, it uses an API called Java
Management Extensions (JMX) to manage the configuration of all the
internal components of Tomcat itself.  In Tomcat 4.1, the JMX layer is
basically added on top of the existing Catalina architecture, so about the
only thing it does is manipulate the configuration in response to admin
webapp changes.  In Tomcat 5, JMX will be used much more aggressively --
not only for configuration management, but also for things like statistics
gathering.  It should be straightforward for JMX-enabled management tools
to easily configure and manage one or more Tomcat 5 installations.

If you look at the sources for the admin webapp, you will also note, of
course, that the developers were pretty smart -- they used Struts to build
this app :-).

Yes it is very cool and nice to use :) . I've done some simple things 
with it based on a tutorial I followed from the site. One question 
though, I've been poking around the admin webapp source in tomcat, which 
file actually reads the server.xml? Or is the contents of server.xml 
already made available to the webapp?

I will check out the commons digester api in further detail.


The Javadocs are also available online:

  http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/digester/api/

In particular, read the "Package Description" which has a good overview of
how Digester can be used.

Finally, the COMMONS-USER mailing list is a good place for general
questions on Digester that aren't Struts related.

Thanks for the prompt reply Jacob.
I do need the xml data to persist, one xml which contains a bunch of 
users who can log in & the other xml contains a list of numbers that 
belong to the bunch of users.
Since I need the application to read these xml files on startup, does 
that mean I need to create a class which extends ActionServlet and
populate the servlet context like this ? :
	 getServletContext().setAttribute(LOCALES_KEY, locales);






Jacob Hookom wrote:
You can have the ActionServlet determine where the source XML is coming
from.  Then, either forward to a JSP and use JSTL to handle the rendering,
or use a transformer and write directly to the OutputStream within the
ActionServlet, and return null instead of an ActionForward.

Re: Hi

[Peng Tuck Kwok]

Just curious, but wouldn't it be easier if the preference for the user 
was stored in a database ?

Hi,

I have a requirement like this.
When the user enters into some jsp pae, he can selecte some checkboxes.
The data related to these checkboxes i have to store in a file. So that next
time when he visited (logoff and logon) this page, he can see the checkboxes
what he previously selected.
I want to write this information to a text file, so that it can be read for
later.




Have a nice day

In what file? If I'm not wrong, you must read the file in an Action, and
then process it (if needed) and put the result in the request for the JSP.

The gui builder is passable, although I wouldn't recommend building

I don't recommend that your report mandate one IDE over another.  
Everyone on the project should be allowed to use what they like and are 
most productive in.  I just found NetBeans very difficult to work with.

That's very true, one should evaluate the respective ide's and determine 
if it is suitable to do the job.

Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2003 17:35:08 -0800 (PST)

Hi all,
 I know that it is very possible that this subject was already 
discussed here, but i couldn't
search on archives (why is this resource disabled?).
 I'm beginning to design a software development process specification 
as a job task. It will
include, for instance, a list of all tools, software, frameworks, etc, 
necessary to develop
Web-based solutions in J2EE platform.
 And after doing a lot of research, i've found that open-source world 
has two leading IDEs:
Netbeans and Eclipse.
 I'd like to hear about experiences with both of them. In my 
preliminary tests i guess it was
difficult to work with Eclipse with focus on Web development. For 
instance, it doesn't have a cool
JSP editor like Netbeans. I've tried an Eclipse plugin, but its 
features are inferior than
Netbeans offered features.
 But i liked Eclipse's plugins feature. And it has a better aproach to 
manage code quality than
Netbeans.
 So, opinions?

Best regards,
 Daniel.

Roughly 17mb is right (a lot of docco has been added, including some
images to walk you through the use of some IDEs).  What's the problem?

Re: Chart products

[Peng Tuck Kwok]

I'd assume you would want a system that could dynamically generate

have a look at this one,

http://cewolf.sourceforge.net/

Comes with taglibs and builds upon another library to generate the charts.

I'm trying to get a test page up with the struts-blank.war going.
So far I have a html page and I'm trying to validate it using the struts
validator. So far all I'm getting is  :

I've tried following the example in the struts-validator.war but to no

Re: Marcomedia Dreamweaver Ultradev4 - Struts - Tiles

I understand that Dreamweaver is mainly a html design tool. Perhaps what

with struts ?
