DispatchAction and Security
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Been mucking around with why I'd want to use DispatchActions, and I understand that part, it's advantages and disadvantages, and I've read the many threads explaining all that. My concern is on how the various methods in the actions are called, and how they pertain to security. For example. Say you have a parameter=method defined, as per the example, and you pass method=addFoo in the URL or even as a hidden field. Struts will go and look through your action, see that addFoo exists and do the processing. All is fine so far. However what if someone decides to just type in the URL method=getServlet, and getServlet() is a public method in Action, which DispatchAction extends, or decides to type execute (which is not as much of a concern), will using DispatchAction honor the call to getServlet or any other public method in DispatchAction or Action classes? Is there an easy way, besides extending the RequestProcessor (which is not hard of course), to add a value to the parameter passed to the DispatchAction? What I mean is that if I specify method=addFoo, I want to add a string to my parameter value (the one specified for DispatchAction) so before my action is processed and tries to resolve addFoo(), I can add param_ so that it will look for param_addFoo method. ~ If I can do that, then anyone trying to make a call to execute, getServlet or anything like that will cause the process to look for param_execute() or param_getServlet(), both of which don't exist of course, hence locking down the app some more. Perhaps this shouldn't even be a concern? Thanks for any input you can provide.

Re: A tag inside another: it will be not interpreted!
Giovanni, I;m not entirely sure I followed everything, but if you're getting HTML tags displayed on screen, meaning instead of img src= you get lt;img src= gt; which will cause the 'tag' to display as text, look for the filter property of the tag you're using and set that to false. It will cause the tag to not encode the text and correctly parse the html inside it. BE REAL CAREFUL though, because I've caught myself in instances where a form was returned from the DB and it caused to break the page because of how the html was put together and saved in the DB. Hope this helps. R P.S. Sorry to be CC'ing you, sometimes my emails don't make it to the list... actually most of the time they don't.

Re: Data driven struts application
Yep, I agree with David. Your code will invariably be more usable and be more presentation layer friendly if you always return a Collection of some type. The Collection would contain beans of the object type you're working with. Further if you're using for example an ArrayList to populate a List, and later you decide you want to change it to something else for say performance reasons or what ever, you don't go busting the whole presentation layer because of it, since the presentation layer is working with a Collection and knows about nothing else. It is *sometimes* better to be as generic as possible with the underlying layers of your code, than hooking your presentation code in so tight that maintenance of the app is greatly affected.

I wouldn't think that would be possible without using javascript to resubmit the page or to make sure a fresh page was always being looked at? Sorry to drop in like that, but what is the problem with using Tokens? just doing a setToken() before you forward to a jsp page, then doing a isTokenValid() when the action is called, usually on page submit, is enough to stop anything. Even if they click the back button then hit submit, won't work. If they reload the page with the form, they get a new token since reloading calls the action which sent them to the page with the token in the first place. So far it works for me, and in the isTokenValid() check I just forward to a 'you can't resubmit this page dorkie, or you'll give me headaches' page, and all is just fine... plus you can do it in different languages by putting the warning text in the resources.properties file. what more is needed here?

I have a JavaBean Array in the session scope which I can loop through

Example:

SearchResultBean[] c = (SearchResultBean[])
session.getAttribute(results);
for (int x = 0; x c.length; x++){
out.println(c[x].getTitle());
out.println(c[x].getDescription());

What is the equivalent syntax for the above using the struts

Re: Where to add Access control
Instead of an action, perhaps a better approach is to have something
like:
public boolean hasPrivileges(HttpServletRequest request)
{
...
}
which would check if a user or group has a privilege. I put a method
like this in my BaseAction, which extends Action and other actions in
my framework extend. This way hasPrivileges() is accessible from any
action you write, then you can do something like this in your actions:
if(!hasPrivileges())
return mapping.findForward(...);
...rest of action code here...
and send them onto a page which tells them to buzz off.
Nice thing about this is that if you want to change or add behavior,
you don't mess with all the actions, just one method.

Re: Struts design flaw -- ActionForms are not true domain objects
On Monday, Feb 17, 2003, at 13:04 US/Eastern, John Cavacas wrote: Struts is great for what it does, and Rods Spring Framework also seems great at what it does. There are also flaws in both Struts and Spring. But that's the beauty and simplicity of all of this. If you don't like something, don't use it. Use something else or do your own thing. Yup exactly. Struts is not a do it all framework for everyone. Struts to me is a purely web-based framework which makes very complex web-based application development easier and more maintainable. Plain and simple. It sets a bunch of rules so we don't have to set them ourselves for every project we work on. If you chose Struts to build Swing GUIs you picked the wrong framework, if you want to add Swing GUIs to maintain say application settings for an application that uses Struts, you can still do that, but it's YOUR job to design YOUR side of the framework properly in order to allow your Swing apps to tap into YOUR framework while keeping it oblivious to the Struts side of things (see Business Delegate Pattern). Now does it break this book's opinion of proper design patterns? I'm sure it does, but what GREAT engineers don't break design pattern rules when it benefits the end result of an application or framework? Patters are there to solve issues we have, not to stick us into lala land with shackles and whips telling us that we must do it that way. They're merely there to help us write better OO design, and from where I sit the Struts design is as close to perfect as you can get right now for WEB-based development. just my 2 cents.

Forms not populating on load - PLEASE HELP!
Scenario: - User gets a list of homes. In the list of homes, there are links to edit each home. - Clicking on the link sends a request to HomeDetailsAction to select the home details. - This action sets a view called HomeDetailView - Then the Action is supposed to forward to the proper jsp page which in turn is supposed to 'fill in' the values of each field. easy enough. What I'm doing now is: HomeDetailsAction - HomeDetailView view = homeImpl.selectHomeDetail( homeID ); //OJB layer which populated the view and returns it. view.setAction( update ); //We set add/update so the jsp page knows how to deal with the next step. request.setAttribute( home , view ); return mapping.findForward( Constants.SUCCESS_KEY ); The struts-config - form-bean name=editHomeForm dynamic=true type=com.codepuccino.forms.HomeForm form-property name=home type=com.codepuccino.views.HomeDetailView/ /form-bean action path=/edithomedetail type=com.codepuccino.actions.HomeDetailsAction name=editHomeForm scope=request input=addHomePage validate=false forward name=Success path=addHomePage/ /action The jsp page - %@ taglib uri=/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld prefix=bean % %@ taglib uri=/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld prefix=html % %@ taglib uri=/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld prefix=logic % html:form action=edithome method=post html:hidden name=editHomeForm property=home.action / The problem: When the form is returned I get one of two problems depending on how I set the property of the hidden field: 1- I get ServletException: No getter method for property home.action of bean editHomeForm 2- if I just use property=action then I get the form with all blank values. I know that the view has values in it for sure. What's the trick? I tried to use DynaActionForm, but that gave me other problems, is that the only way to get things to work? I can get around the other problems (mainly that when it's a new home and the form is empty I get an exception that action has no setter or getter method). What I am hoping I can do is use one action called EditHomeAction, which gets the values submitted after the HomeForm checks that everything is OK, and then based on the home.action value, either call an update or an add to the OJB layer.

html:text property magic?
Ok, still new'ish to struts, and definitely new to the custom tags, I used to use lots of java code in my jsps and now moving to better things. This brought me to the: html:text property=../ tag. I have a jsp page which gets referenced via a ForwardAction like so: action path=/ViewLogin type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction parameter=loginPage/ (loginPage is a tile reference) Now when I did this by accident in my jsp page: html:text property=userName size=20 maxlength=50 / things barfed, and when I did this: html:text property=username size=20 maxlength=50 / things were just fine. How in the world did Struts ForwardAction know which field to map for property since this action is not mapped specifically to my SecurityForm Thanks R -- Robert S.

Re: html:text property magic?
Oh no, I understand the case sensitivity problem ( geez, do I seem like that much of a newbie? :-) ) I was just wondering where it figured out to pick up the proper bean, and you answered it with html:form name=blah blah and since I have: html:form action=Login I don't see how it pertains to this, unless the action Login, which is defined like this: action path=/Login type=net.sfeir.security.actions.LoginAction name=loginForm scope=request validate=true input=loginPage forward name=Success path=homePage/ forward name=Failure path=loginPage/ /action form-bean name=loginForm type=net.sfeir.security.forms.SecurityForm/ cascades all the way down the path to see that the name in the action definition is loginForm and that points to form-bean of type SecurityForm? If this is the case, I am getting more and more impressed with Struts! Geez this thing is almost reading my mind... accidentally or not. Also if this is the case, is there an advantage to 'naming' the form like this: html:form action=Login name=net.sfeir.security.forms.SecurityForm I can see one advantage that it might override the default specified in the struts-config (just guessing here).

Re: [newbie] Connection Pooling
100% agree. The only thing that should be placed in a session is user
specific stuff. Connections should never be user specific, connections
should be returned to the pool so other users can have them when they
need it. The thing is that before such cool methodologies you had to
buy 300-400 DB users for big apps, and db vendors made a killing that
way, with the poolers and web connection pooling, now you can run a
busy app on 5 user connections and keep the load light on the DB.
Anyway implementing the PlugIn is easier than anything I've done so far
in Struts. I just implemented it for my BaseOJBConnector class, it
doesn't even have to be a servlet, and it opens up the db (the ojb
pooler more specifically) and saves time on startup where users don't
have to wait for the pooler to instantiate.
Here is the code if someone wants to see an example: (If you want to
do it with the commons pooler send me an email I'll send you the code,
it's not very different)
public class BaseOJBConnector implements PlugIn , Serializable
{
protected static Implementation odmg = null;
protected static Database db = null;
private static String ojbDBAlias = null;
protected Log log = LogFactory.getFactory().getInstance(
this.getClass().getName() );
/**
* Default constructor, initializes the percistence layer.
* @throws net.sfeir.exceptions.DataAccessException
*/
public BaseOJBConnector() throws DataAccessException
{
}
/**
* Opens the database and prepares it for transactions
*/
private void openDB( String DBC )
{
if( DBC == null || DBC.length() 1 )
DBC = default;
// Get odmg facade instance
odmg = OJB.getInstance();
db = odmg.newDatabase();
// Open database
try
{
if( log.isDebugEnabled() )
log.debug( Opening DB connection via OJB );
db.open( DBC , Database.OPEN_READ_WRITE );
}
catch( Exception ex )
{
if( log.isFatalEnabled() )
log.fatal( Something went very wrong in opening the DB connection
, ex );
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
private void closeDB()
{
try
{
db.close();
}
catch( ODMGException e )
{
if( log.isFatalEnabled() )
log.fatal( An exception occured during database closing , e );
}
}
public void destroy()
{
closeDB();
}

1. Session timeout uses to be too high if you must wait the session to

Re: DynaActionForm and from-property
On Monday, Feb 10, 2003, at 13:15 US/Eastern, John C Cartwright wrote: Hello All, I'm working through Chuck Cavaness' Programming Jakarta Struts book (and enjoying it, by the way!). I ran across the statement in reference to form-properties and DynaActionForms ...you should try to use only String properties, even with a DynaActionForm. The examples in the book sometimes seem to often violate this guideline, but my question is how else would one better convey a DataTransferObject class to a view's JSP page? Is it better to store it a Request Attribute? Yeah the Dyna form stuff in the book threw me off too. Though I am enjoying the book I think Dyna and Validation are poorly covered (so are Tiles). After much digging, I decided to not really use DynaActionForms unless I wanted to let the user (client that is) edit the forms to add more fields. Usually it's not the case for me. The second reason why I decided not to use them as much is because when it comes to validation it's either all or nothing, so either all the fields are validated in the form or none. If you use ActionForms then you can have one ActionForm (FooForm) represent all the 'fields' in your form, and then you can pick and choose which fields you validate from one form to the next by adding a new validation definition. On the String properties comment Chuck was mentioning, was because he said somewhere around the same quote you gave that if you wanted to use int or boolean it would complicate things since you'd have to use Integer and Boolean in the forms. I don't see an issue with doing that personally. So I'm not entirely sure why Chuck mentioned it... it threw me off more than helped in this case, and like you mentioned this particular guideline is often violated in the code. Third piece is, read on to the next chapter and look at views. You would pass a View objet to the jsp page. R -- Robert S.

Re: General Question
Well first you might find that updating all the fields is easier, but still if you want to do it your way, you have to have something to compare the old value to the new one, and in that case you use a hidden field. So you'd have something like: input type=text name=field1 input type=hidden name=oldField1 When the user hits submit you'll have to check to see if the values are the same, if they are ignore and don't update otherwise update. You see you have to loop over all the fields anyway, it's a form submit thing, you can't tell it to submit a form partially.

Implications of Various Forms and Validators
I am trying to get full grasp on how to decide how to approach which validator and form to use for my framework. I've successfully managed to setup demos of ActionForm and ValidatorForm, as well as DynaActionForm with DynaValidatorForm. (If some of you are taring your hair out with this, don't forget the validate=true and input=... in your actions... :-) , I'd be glad to send the sample code as it stand right now too.) I can see the advantage of DynaActionForm where I don't have to create a new XYZForm class file for every form I want to use. and I can make a quick change in the struts config and the form has new or different fields. I can also add a new form-bean definition and off I go. I can see how I can also write one SecurityForm class with all the fields I need it to support for my security components, and then use that form for login.jsp, registration.jsp, addressInfo.jsp, phoneInfo.jsp etc... and it seems that in this case the validator will I guess what I am asking is: 1- What are the performance implications 2- Are there any sets of rules that would define a line where I can determine if I should use Dyna or 'Plain-jane' Forms What I like right now is to create one SecurityForm class file will all the methods I might need in it, and then have various validator xml definitions for every jsp form. Each JSP form of course submits to its own action. Opinions are greatly welcome. Thanks R -- Robert S.

Re: Wanted a Good Struts Book
hands down Programming Jakarta Struts is the best book out there right now. Covers the latest version. What I like about it most is that it goes into the best way of extracting the model/view before it even discusses using it with Struts. So you end up with examples that are Struts independent which you then implement with Struts. This gives you the ability to go to a different framework (not sure why you'd want to do that), or reuse your code for a different approach to your app. R On Wednesday, January 8, 2003, at 02:19 PM, Ron Day wrote: No-one seems to mention Struts Kick Start from Sams Publishing.
