Re: How can i simply show a form property as a simple text
I'm got almsot the same question.
I populate a form bean in an action and then display the page with the
populated form bean.
I want to use c:out to display one of the values in the form bean but I'm
not sure where to look for the value.
I have the action scope set to request and the bean name is bitmap_form, so
I figured:
c:out value=${requestScope.bitmap_form.FORMER_FILE_SRC}/
would do it... but it doesn't.
FORMER_FILE_SRC is the property of the form bean that I wish to display...
Any ideas?

Re: Bypassing Form Validation
If you want to validation to be turned off in both javascript and server side you ahve to use the html:cancel tag You will not be able to set the property for this tag because if you do, struts won't know where to look to find the submittal to see if it should or shouldn't do the server side validation.

FormBean population
I've got a form bean that is of type DynaValidatorForm. In the past I had been using DynaActionForm and when I wanted to display a form with values already populated (from, say, a DB query) I would link to an action that would populate the formbean and then display then jsp page which would then have access to the form bean's values. Now that I have switched over to DynaValidatorForm, when I call my action to populate the form bean it thinks it is a submit, does a validation check, and complains that the fields are empty (which they are at the time of the submit because the action to populate the form bean has not run yet). I think I may be going about this the wrong way. How does one populate a DynaValidatorForm bean so that a jsp page can display the values and not invoke the initial validation check? -- Sloan This email has been scanned for all viruses by the MessageLabs Email Security System.

Re: Session expired
First off let me state that mine is a bit complicated since it gets some
config info from a static object I stripped out what I could to make
it more simple...but the whole version of mine gets the redirect url and if
it is enabled or not from a static configuration object that is created via
a plugin that uses Digester
The example below is as simple as it gets. If a session object does not
exist and the specific object within the session does not exist (in this
case, a user object defined by USER_OBJECT), it redirects to the index.jsp.
Otherwise it just lets the filter continue down the chain of filters(the
correct thing to do if the user is valid).
In writing your own you will prob. want to abstract the page to redirect to
as well as the object to look for in the session to make everything more
configurable
You could also go a step further and check the roles within the user object.
Though I do this on a per action basis within the struts-config.xml file via
a SecureAction object that I've created. This allows for a lot of cool
tricks like cascading up the action chain to a point where the user finally
has proper access rights
anyway... here is the code:
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
public class SessionFilter
implements Filter
{
private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger(SessionFilter.class);
private ServletContext context = null;
/**
* Initialize the SessionFilter with the FilterConfigurate from the
* web.xml file
*
* @param _filterConfig The Filter Configuration
*/
public void init(javax.servlet.FilterConfig _filterConfig) {
context = _filterConfig.getServletContext();
}
/**
* Called when the filter needs to be executed
*
* @param _request The ServletRequest
* @param _response The ServletResponse
* @param _chain The FilterChain
*/
public void doFilter(ServletRequest _request, ServletResponse _response,
FilterChain _chain)
throws IOException, ServletException
{
String redirectFailure = /index.jsp;
HttpSession session = ((HttpServletRequest)_request).getSession();
// the object name to look for should be in the configuration...
if ((session == null) || (session.getAttribute(USER_OBJECT)== null) )
{
context.getRequestDispatcher(redirectFailure)
.forward(_request,_response);
log.debug(Access denied. Redirecting to +redirectFailure);
}
else {
_chain.doFilter(_request, _response);
}

Re: Why not to use Action chaining ?
Though that is true, it can be avoid if you write your chainer properly. You can have it Dechain and actually invoke a forward to the new action. Also, you can write an Action that just invokes objects in a linked list mannor and have each action called that way.

Thanks Alen, Ted Husted (Struts in Action) says that the action chaining in the dark side of Struts. The problem he mentioned is that when the second action is being invoked, the form is being 'repopulated' with the initial form values that the form had when it was passed to the first action Since I am new to struts, I am not able to grasp it clearly. You can find the info related to this in Struts FAQ. I am just wondering what is the alternate solution. There are two alternatives to my knowledge: 1) Refactoring Design: Put common functions into a separate class and then call the common functions from your action classes if you need. 2) Controller Delegation Model: In one action class, you could find another action instance the same way as the RequestProcessor find it and then call the execute method on the action instance. The second way is very suitable for tools when designers could organize their actions without any overlap functions. The performance gain is apparent: no repopulated, no revalidated form beans.

At the same time, you also have multiple objects that you want to fire off and if one of them fails you want to rollback everything. The objects that fire off, and their order can be set within struts as well as being wrapped by jdo like so: action path=/test className=com.symbol.mc.struts.mcp.ActionMCPMapping type=com.symbol.mc.struts.mcp.ActionMCP name=jdoTestBean set-property property=ACTION_TYPE value=JDO, PROCESSOR/ set-property property=ACTION_PROCESSOR value=com.symbol.mc.oms.common.struts.action.DollarSpent/ set-property property=ACTION_PROCESSOR value=com.symbol.mc.oms.common.struts.action.SaveDollar/ forward name=PAGE_ACTION_FAILURE path=/testMdx.jsp/ forward name=PAGE_ACTION_SUCCESS path=/mdx.jsp/ /action Doesn't show much really, but now, say I want the page to work only in a secure env. All you do is change ACTION_TYPE to: set-property property=ACTION_TYPE value=SECURE, JDO, PROCESSOR/ objects in the list get wrapper by their predecessor. Ok, so now you want to do Redirects (Something I have seen talked about a lot in the forums but never really implemented ;)) Change ACTION_TYPE to: set-property property=ACTION_TYPE value=SECURE, JDO, PROCESSOR, REMAP/ and add: set-property property=MAPPED_FORWARD value=PAGE_ACTION_SUCCESS:/app/test1:/app/test2/ This will take any request from /app/test1 and change the value of PAGE_ACTION_SUCCESS to /app/test2 without having to change your Action's code.

Re: [OT] Workflow Proposal for Struts
The Service and Call stuff looks like SOAP ;) anyway...
My system works like so:
Replace ActionServlet with ActionMCPServlet so it can do all the validation
stuff at startup.
Use ActionMCP and ActionMCPMapping for the struts actions.
If you just want to do individual things (say, just JDO) there are JDOAction
wrappers that can be used independently of ActionMCP.
ActionMCP will also allow you to extend it and have your object get called
between the initialization and destroying of the services (which I called
wrappers for some reason *shrugs shoulders*).
To do this you implement ActionMCPWrapper which has init() and destroy()
methods. This allows things like JDO transactions to span other wrappers.
It has cut my development time significantly. Esp. since I added wrapper
event listeners. This way anything that throws an exception can get caught
elsewhere. So say you action does some JDO. You don't need to have the
error catching in the action. You register a listener (I have generic ones)
that will handle the error for you. This way I can do things like graceful
degradation really easily
Anyway... I'll see about getting this all on a website. I think it is very
useful and I am looking for suggestions

want to fire off and if one of them fails you want to rollback everything.
The objects that fire off, and their order can be set within struts as
well
as being wrapped by jdo like so:
action path=/test
className=com.symbol.mc.struts.mcp.ActionMCPMapping
type=com.symbol.mc.struts.mcp.ActionMCP
name=jdoTestBean
set-property property=ACTION_TYPE value=JDO, PROCESSOR/
set-property property=ACTION_PROCESSOR
value=com.symbol.mc.oms.common.struts.action.DollarSpent/
set-property property=ACTION_PROCESSOR
value=com.symbol.mc.oms.common.struts.action.SaveDollar/
forward name=PAGE_ACTION_FAILURE path=/testMdx.jsp/
forward name=PAGE_ACTION_SUCCESS path=/mdx.jsp/
/action
Doesn't show much really, but now, say I want the page to work only in a
secure env.
All you do is change ACTION_TYPE to:
set-property property=ACTION_TYPE value=SECURE, JDO, PROCESSOR/
objects in the list get wrapper by their predecessor.
Ok, so now you want to do Redirects (Something I have seen talked about a
lot in the forums but never really implemented ;))
Change ACTION_TYPE to:
set-property property=ACTION_TYPE value=SECURE, JDO, PROCESSOR,
REMAP/
and add:
set-property property=MAPPED_FORWARD
value=PAGE_ACTION_SUCCESS:/app/test1:/app/test2/
This will take any request from /app/test1 and change the value of
PAGE_ACTION_SUCCESS to /app/test2 without having to change your Action's
code.
It does a lot of other things (Chaining, MDX, wait pages), but this email
is
getting long...

If a user selects something from a html:select field and the next time the pages loads I want to get the value that they selected, how do I go about do this?

Re: Best place for security checks in Struts?
You could have a class that is an Action (say, named SecureAction) and then have all of the actions in the struts file extend SecureAction and implement a method called executeSecure() (not execute()!) What then happens is your action in the Strust config (say, named ShowUser) gets called by Struts but since it extends SecureAction, Struts calls SecureAction's execute(). It then checks security and if it's good it calls executeSecure() which is the method that ShowUser overwrote. If the security doesn't pass, then SecureAction never calls executeSecure... and there ya go. You can then define the security on a per action basis by making your own ActionMappping object and doing something like: set-property property=ROLE value=ADMIN/ That is how I did it for a while and it worked great... -- Sloan - Original Message - From: Sandeep Takhar [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Struts Users Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2003 2:44 PM Subject: Re: Best place for security checks in Struts?

Nested Tag
I'm trying to do a tree using the nested tags and I'm having some issues.
I've got a NodeBean (like the TreeBean in the monkey bean example) with the following:
public NodeBean() {
key=MonkeyTree;
value=MonkeyTree;
NodeBean n1 = new NodeBean(1, 1);
NodeBean n2 = new NodeBean(2, 2);
NodeBean n3 = new NodeBean(3, 3);
NodeBean n4 = new NodeBean(4, 4);
addChild(n1);
n1.addChild(n3);
addChild(n2);
n2.addChild(n4);
}
And my .jsp looks like:
nested:form action=/testTree2.do
jsp:include page=treeNode.jsp/
/nested:form
and (treeNode.jsp):
nested:root
DL
nested:iterate property=children
DDFONT size=-2
nested:write property=ancestry
/FONT
nested:writeNesting/
jsp:include page=treeNode.jsp/
/DD
/nested:iterate
/DL
/nested:root
But the output I get is:
1 children[0]
3 children[0].children[0]
2 children[1]
3 children[0].children[0]
You can see that node 2 is showing a the child of node 1 when it should (as in the
java code) clearly be node 4.
Can anyone help me as to why this is happenning? Is it a bug in the nested tag?

Re: logic:notEmpty
The logic:notPresent tag did the trick Thanks! -- Sloan - Original Message - From: Susan Bradeen [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Struts Users Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 31, 2003 10:27 AM Subject: Re: logic:notEmpty I think there may be a few issues here ... First of all, notEmpty, I believe, checks for whether or not a String value is set for a specific bean property (checks for null or empty String). So I don't think you can use if for a collection as a whole. The notPresent tag may be better suited to this, although that may just check to see if the collection is in existence, not necessarily populated with values. In other words, the collection can be empty, but it is still present. I think. Have you tried using your collection as the name for the bean, and using some field in the collection as the property? This brings it more down to the level of what notEmpty is used for. All my properties are set from my formbean within the action that loads the jsp. So in my case, I have a collection object in my form, with its getters and setters, and the action does the ... myform.setMyCollection(someCollectionFromSomewhere); ... then, if the collection is null, the notPresent tag in the jsp will do whatever you need it to do. You can use the bean:define tags to set your page scoped collection to a variable which will be useable within your jsp, but I am not sure if that is what you are looking for?

I use struts-action for the actions, struts-formbean for the formbeans, and
I also build the validation file so that is what validation.xml is for

Great idea! Who cares what the deployed struts-config.xml file
looks like after all. Man, maybe struts developers could have saved
the time and just relied on ant. Oh well, guess options are good.

Is there any way to get a variable passed to a tile into a custom tag within

Re: argh, confused now
You can chain them together... Jacob Hookom and I had a discussion about this a while ago. I wrote a ChainAction action that allows me to call multiple actions one after another and pass the same form info to all or them, or change form info along the way (to a minor extent).. Check the archives for the postings It allows me to do exactly what you are doing...

Re: html:link ties the model to the view
Take a look at html-el:link
as it may provide exactly what you are looking for..
Example:
logic:iterate id=element name=listSubcategoryForm
property=visibleCategories type=cannot reveal package
name.SubcategoryModel
trtd
html-el:link name=element property=params
page=/editSubcategory.do?${visibleCategories}html:img border=0

Subject: html:link ties the model to the view
Hi everyone,
I've been using Struts for a while, and I think it's the best thing since
servlets.
Today, though, I ran into a problem that when I tried to implement with
Struts, I found the solution to be rather dissappointing. Or maybe it's just
me, and I couldn't figure out the best way to do it.
I have a JSP that lists a number of elements, and beside each element,
there's a link to another page where the user can edit this element.
I use a model class to retrieve a Vector of instances from the class that
encapsulates that element.
I use the logic:iterate tag to iterate over this Vector and show the
elements. When I tried to implement the link that will point to the page
where the element can be edited, I found out that the html:link tag has a
strange way of getting the parameters to be appened to the link. If you want
to send more than one parameter then you need to provide a Map of the
parameter names and values.
Since I'm iterating over a collection, the only way to do that is to provide
this Map from the instances in this collection for every element. But that
would mean that my model (Class whose instance is in the Vector) has to know
the names of the request parameters I'm sending. Isn't that some sort of
coupling between the model and the web tier? Or am I missing something here?
I'll provide the code here to help explain my point...I've only included the
element in question.
logic:iterate id=element name=listSubcategoryForm
property=visibleCategories type=cannot reveal package
name.SubcategoryModel
trtdhtml:link name=element property=params
page=/editSubcategory.dohtml:img border=0
srcKey=img.edit//html:link/td
/tr
/logic:iterate
So, I need SubcategoryModel to implement a method called getParams() to
return a java.util.Map that contains the request parameters and their
values. That would essentially mean that SubcategoryModel knows the name of
the request parameters, which is not that good.
I don't have another way to do it. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

Page Loading.. Please Wait
I need to have one of the Request Processing... Please wait type of things for an action I have that takes about 10 seconds to run If I was doing straight servlets I would write some javascript/dhtml stuff I found on the web to display the message and then flush the output stream.. then do the rest of the processing and then again flush the output stream to hide the Request Processing... stuff. How can I pull something like this off in Struts? Do I just grab the output stream from the response object or is there a better way to do this whole thing?

Re: How do you keep your session junk free?
I kinda have a class that does that if you want. I have an Action called ChainAction that can call N number of actions in a row and passes the same form and request info through all the actions. The last action in the chain is then used to do a foward to whatever. This is how I control all application flow via the struts-config file. Example: action path=/app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/introAddChain className=com.symbol.mobilecommerce.analysis.struts.ChainActionMapping type=com.symbol.mobilecommerce.analysis.struts.ChainAction name=pantryLoadingIntro set-property property=ROLE value=admin/ set-property property=PROPERTY_NAME value=action/ set-property property=CHAIN value=Do Delete : /app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/introSaveMessageAdd, /app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/deleteBitmapAdd, /app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/introAddPage/ set-property property=CHAIN value=Add Bitmap : /app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/introSaveMessageAdd, /app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/addBitmapAdd, /app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/introEditPage/ set-property property=CHAIN value=Next: /app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/introSaveMessageAdd, /app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/messageTypeAddChain/ forward name=PAGE_CHAIN_ERROR path=/app/campaign/promotion/type/pantryLoading/introAddPage.do/ forward name=PAGE_ACCESS_DENIED path=/app/campaign/promotion/mainPage.do/ /action This action does security first (we have a custom system that does role based security down to the action level). If the user does not have access it send them up the chain one step. They continue up the chain till they hit a point where they do have access. This way we get them to ass deep as they can go (get your mind out of the gutter). Anway.. The chains work by defining a PROPERTY_NAME that relates to an any element in a form. In this case, submit buttons. If the user clicked Do Delete it sends them to introSaveMessageAdd and then to deleteBitmap, and then to the introAddPage. This way my actions a very modular. You can also do a DECHAIN which will run through the actions like normal but the last one is treated as a seperate request and gets a new form and request object (good for going from one form to another and not having bean issues). It also does other things like you can defined a message to put into the session at the end of the chain, etc... Anyway..

Re: How do you keep your session junk free?
#. For example: createEmployee_1, createEmployee_2, etc. We would use the same rules as above, except we would always create a new wizard bag in step one of the wizard (and drop the current one even if it already exists). We would also verify that the wizard bag with our current wizard's logical name already exists in subsequent steps, and if it doesn't, forward to an exception page (because this means we either lost the wizard bag in the middle of the process due to another client browser's request (in the same session), or we jumped into the middle of the wizard somehow - see #2 above).

What woudl cause Struts to put Javascript into a page but NOT put script type=text/javascript language=Javascript1.1 !-- Begin and //End -- /script It seems to be leaving it out for me on a certain page. On other pages it works fine though. Also, is there any way to get strust to send only the javascript methods it needs? Right now it sends a lot of methods that are not needed for my forms.

Call to other actions
Is there anyway in an Action class to call another action and get whatever action forwarder it returned? To be more specific: I want to define a action chain that will go through the various defined actions ignoring the ActionForward that they return until I get to the last one. Basically I have a parameter passed to a class that extends Action like so: set-property property=Action value=Promo Mgmt : /app/campaign/add.do, /app/campaign/promo/main.do/ and I want the class to call add.do and let it do its thing (without doing whaterever it says to forward to) and then call main.do and let it do its thing and use the returned forwarder. I am doing this because I have a lot of forms tht have mutlipe submit buttons and depending on the button pressed I want to do various sets of actions. In the example above the button value is Promo Mgmt and the chain of events is everything after the : -- Sloan - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Passing parameters to Actions

(BTW: is there any way to write to whatever request.isUserInRole() used to do its lookup so we can use it?) Is there any way to have parameters passed like how I would like?

Subject: RE: Passing parameters to Actions
It is done automagically upon startup of your application. When struts
processes it's config (struts-config.xml) it generates ActionMapping
instances for each action. When you specify your extended ActionMapping
in
the className attribute of action struts will populate the related
property or properties of that class. Your extended Action mapping must
have
matching getter/setter properties that match you property= value (i.e.
set-property property=aProperty value=aValue/ relates to public
setAProperty(String aValue){};)
One of the issues you might run into is that you cant easily change the
properties during runtime. If you make role changes to the Action you will
have to reboot the webapp. This is usually not a major deal.

Nested tags
I have the following in a jsp page:
TDhtml:checkbox name=retire value=core:out
value=${campaign.campaignId}///TD
The page blows up with a jsp.error.unterminated.tag error.
I'm guessing I have to use a nested tag to pull this off, but I don't know
how. Could someone help me out.
Here is the full block of code. The campaign:list tag is a custom tag
that iterates and places the bean in the pageContext object.
campaign:list id=campaign
TR bgcolor=#CC
TDcore:out value=${campaign.name}//TD
TDhtml:link page=/app/campaign/promo/index.jspPromo

html:messages works a bit differently than html:errors in that it does not
print out the collection containing your messages for you. You must do it
manually between a begin and end tag. Using your example, you would have
to
do the following:

Subject: Re: Using the html:message tag
Jerome,
I tried it but it didn't work.
Here is what I have in my HTML:
html:messages id=success message=true /
And here is what is in my action file:
ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages(); messages.add(success, new
ActionMessage(mdxquery.success));
saveMessages(_request, messages);
where mxdquery.success in a value in my ApplicationResources.properties
file..
I'm not sure about the id attribute. The API for ActionMessages.add says
the first string is the property while the docs on the id attribute say it
is the name scope of the JSP bean(??)...
Idea's?

Try this:
html:messages id=success message=true /
If you omit message=true then the tag only looks for error messages
under
Action.ERROR_KEY. With the message=true it will look for messages
under Action.MESSAGE_KEY.
