Redirect out of to external web page
Can a Struts action be used to forward a user to an external page? The example below does not work. What is wrong with this? action path=/SystemLogoff type=SystemLogoffAction set-property property=releasemode value=Stateless/ forward name=success path=https://company.com/oblogout.cgi; redirect=true/ /action Thanks, Vince Ventin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Never mind. I figured it out.

RE: Converting to Struts, where to put Servlet init() code?
The approach I am using for WSSO is to extend the RequestProcessor class and override the processPreprocess() method. This is recommended in the book Programming Jakarta Struts by Chuck Cavaness, published by O'Reilly, p 112. If you put a debug statement in it you will find that it gets executed before the Action code and a form is displayed.

I'm converting an existing webapp to Struts. I have some code in a Servlet init() method, and I don't immediately see where I should put it. This is an authentication/authorization webapp, and the code in question sets up an authentication handler object to be used by every subsequent request. What's guaranteed to get executed before the Action code? (I'm almost thinking Filter, and to put the object in Application scope, but I'm not sure yet.)

RE: When to build/re-deploy?
It is possible to change the XML files on the server to do quick testing but you should let the deploy handle any updates on the server. This will mean getting into the habit of code/build/deploy for each change you do. I don't use Tomcat but there may be parameters that get set to determine when the server looks for updated files. Sometimes these are optional to improve the performance of the server. Vince Ventin -Original Message- From: Andy Engle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 9:33 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: When to build/re-deploy? Greetings. I am working on my first Struts app, and I have a question about when to build. I am doing my development work in Netbeans, and I am building my project with ant. My question is this: after I make changes to an XML file (or files), is it necessary to rebuild? Also, is it necessary to re-deploy the application, or does Tomcat check the updated XML files (such as validation.xml, for example) without the need to re-deploy? Do I need to re-build and re-deploy after every minor change? Thanks for your help!

Losing images on redisplay of page.
I am somewhat new to Struts/Web development and I have what I think should be a basic question to answer. I hope to get enough information that will help me to debug this issue. The application that I have built is based on the Struts Blank. I am using Oracle's UIX for my pages (I have this question into Oracle also). When the application starts it begins with index.jsp (defined in web.xml). This page forwards to the global welcome action. The global welcome action opens the /pages/welcome.uix page. At this point the page is displaying, with all images, as I would expect. The images are off the web root in images/. The page contains a link which goes to the /ComeBack2 action which is supposed to simply redisplay the page. The page returns but an image that is supposed to be displayed cannot be found. I thought the context may have been fouled up and tried to change the reference to ../ or move the image to the root and use / but nothing works. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what is happening or how I would go about debugging this? As you can see I am using the standard Struts ForwardAction. Is there a way that I can identify the problem by extending the Struts ForwardAction class and, if so, what values should I be looking at? global-forwards !-- Default forward to Welcome action -- !-- Demonstrates using index.jsp to forward -- forward name=welcome path=/Welcome.do/ /global-forwards action-mappings !-- Default Welcome action -- !-- Forwards to Welcome.jsp -- action path=/Welcome type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction parameter=/pages/welcome.uix/ action path=/ComeBack2 type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction parameter=/pages/welcome.uix?TabSet=Processes/ /action-mappings Any help you can give will be appreciated.

RE: books and tutorials
A couple of good books: Programming Jakarta Struts by Chuck Cavaness - published by O'Reilly Struts in Action by Ted Husted - published by Manning (No one book has everything you will need but these two have been helpful to me.) Also go to the Struts site: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/ Read, download, work the tutorials, experiment, ..., try to have fun ...

RequestProcessor - appConfig deprecated
I am following an example in the book Programming Jakarta Struts by Chuck Cavaness, published by O'Reilly press. The example is on page 227 and uses the statement: ForwardConfig config = appConfig.findForwardConfig(Unauthorized); When I compile I am warned that the appConfig variable in RequestProcessor class has been deprecated. I found that the ApplicationConfig module is renamed to ModuleConfig in Struts 1.1 Beta 3 http://www.jsn-server3.com/struts-documentation/userGuide/release-notes- 1.1-b3.html My question is: How do I obtain the ForwardConfig? Do I use ModuleConfig? Vince Ventin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
