ActionMapping problem: upgrading struts1.0 to struts1.1 question
In the current struts 1.0 application, we do following: String actionNameFind = / + thisForm.getAction(); ActionMapping newMapping = (ActionMapping) getServlet().findMapping(actionNameFind); Does anybody know how I can retrieve ActionMapping in a similar manner in struts 1.1?

You need the path to specify which mapping you want.

ActionMapping - regexp pattern matching for path
Hello to all, In Struts-1.1 it is possible to bind Actions to static URL path, but is it possible to bind Actions to the set of the paths, described by Java regular expression? For example: action-mappings action path=/users/.* type=com.mysite.UserPageAction scope=session validate=false /action /action-mappings I mean that in this case the requests for /users/John/, /users/Mary/ and etc. will be handled by com.mysite.UserPageAction.

Re: ActionMapping - regexp pattern matching for path
No, I don't believe this is possible currently. Wildcards of any kind (extending to regexps) are not support for ActionMapping paths.

RE: ActionMapping - regexp pattern matching for path
Can't you use a module and set the action mapping to 'unknown=true' so that one particular action is used for everything? If so, you'd need to be mapping actions as 'do/*' instead of '*.do', theoretically. I've been meaning to try this now that I'm using /do/* as my Struts v1.1 mapping but I haven't got around to using any modules yet. (I'm sooo slow on ths project, like I don't want to do it).

ActionMapping - dependency - question
Hi,
I have started to develop several reusable struts-enhancements like
(conditional-execution of actions, workflow, ...).
All of them have been realized using the nested set-property element of
the action element which is working very nice ;)
What I do not understand is, why the ConfigRuleSet.java defines the
following rule:
digester.addSetProperty(struts-config/action-mappings/action/set-property,
property, value);
instead of something similar to the datasource/plugin - rule:
digester.addRule(struts-config/plug-in/set-property, new
PlugInSetPropertyRule());
which invokes a method E.g. :
addProperty(String key, String value)
and not a setter-method like (when property=test) :
setTest(String value)
Due to this fact I am running into problem because I am not able to use
multiple enhancements at the same time, unless the defined
ActionMapping-class of the action implements setter-methods for all
required properties.
E.g:
class MyMapping
{
setPermissionName()
setNextFlow()
setXXX
...
}
In my opinion this is a dependency which contradicts the independency of the
struts-framework as a whole.
It would be great if one of you could give me a hint on how to solve my
problem without changing the struts.DTD or anything along those lines.
Any help is very appreciated.

actionmapping set-property problem in 1.1 upgrade
Title: actionmapping set-property problem in 1.1 upgrade
Hi,
We're upgrading to struts 1.1 and came across a problem with 'action specific' 'set-property' elements. I've searched the archives but haven't come across this problem.
Specifically this action entry:
!-- Display Public Profile --
action path=/profile/publicprofile
type=com.participate.pe.profile.client.actions.PublicProfileInit
name=publicProfileForm scope=request
className=com.participate.util.client.struts.ApplicationActionMapping
set-property property=public value=true/
forward name=continue path=/profile/include/publicprofile.jsp /
/action
yields this error:
[2003-09-11 09:24:45,031] [ERROR] org.apache.commons.digester.Digester (Digester.java:1275) - Begin event threw exception
java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Bean has no property named public at org.apache.commons.digester.SetPropertyRule.begin(SetPropertyRule.java:192) at org.apache.commons.digester.Rule.begin(Rule.java:200)
The 1.1 dtd appears to still support the 'set-property' element in the 'action' element :
ELEMENT action (icon?, display-name?, description?, set-property*, exception*, forward*)
The code looks like it only supports 'module-wide' mappings (from initModuleConfig(String prefix, String paths) ):
// Support for module-wide ActionMapping type override
String mapping = getServletConfig().getInitParameter(mapping);
if (mapping != null) {
config.setActionMappingClass(mapping);
}
Two questions:
1) Any workarounds for this?
2) We use this set-property to indicate which servlets are 'public facing' and which require login. If anyone has a better solution for distinguishing between such actions, I'd appreciate any insights.
thanks,
bill

What type for this 'continue' ? (i.e. boolean or String)

The type of the public property can be anything that ConvertUtils can convert from a String.

In this case, I'd expect property to be String, Boolean, or boolean. I don't know the com.participate classes, so I have no idea if you're using it correctly, but this is what Struts is trying to do, and that's why Struts (actually Digester, another important Commons package) says java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Bean has no property named public I'm not sure why Nazeer suggested adding a continue property, unless he was accidentally looking at your forward element instead of your set-property element.

Right. This class has had a setPublic(boolean) for a long time and it's worked correctly in struts 1.0. Only when I updated to struts 1.1 today did the problem arise. It looks like struts as of 1.1 does not use the classname attribute in the action element as it did in 1.0: action path=/profile/publicprofile type=com.participate.pe.profile.client.actions.PublicProfileInit name=publicProfileForm scope=request className=com.participate.util.client.struts.ApplicationActionMapping set-property property=public value=true/ forward name=continue path=/profile/include/publicprofile.jsp / /action [2003-09-11 09:24:45,031] [ERROR] org.apache.commons.digester.Digester (Digester.java:1275) - Begin event threw exception java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Bean has no property named public at org.apache.commons.digester.SetPropertyRule.begin(SetPropertyRule.java:192) at org.apache.commons.digester.Rule.begin(Rule.java:200) Thanks for the comments on the Digester and ConvertUtils.

Re: actionmapping set-property problem in 1.1 upgrade
RE: actionmapping set-property problem in 1.1 upgradeHi,
an alternative is the parameter - attribute of the action - element. But this way
you can only pass one parameter (except you use a csv value and split this in your
action manually).
Adding a custom digester rule (like for data-source and plugin) in this class:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-struts/src/share/org/apache/struts/config/ConfigRuleSet.java?rev=1.15content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
plus adding a java.lang.Map class-attribute should solve the problem, but this would
mean to recompile an own struts-binary. Better someone who has cvs-write access fix it
to be sure it is in the next nightly build.

Probs migrating custom ActionMapping from 1.0.2 to 1.1
Ladies and gents, Having an issue with migrating our application over from 1.0.2 to 1.1. Specifically, we have a problem in the following line from our ActionServlet: ModuleConfig modCfg = RequestUtils.getModuleConfig(request, getServletContext()); SecureActionMapping secAMapping = (SecureActionMapping) modCfg.findActionConfig(path); The second line gives a ClassCastException whenever a request is made. The hierarchy for SecureActionMapping is: ActionConfig +- ActionMapping +- SecureActionConfig +- PackagingActionMapping +- SecureActionMapping Further, the mapping init-param in web.xml points to this SecureActionMapping class. The class type being returned by the findActionConfig(String) method is ActionConfig, although the servlet appears to be configuring itself properly during the initModuleConfig(String, String) method of ActionServlet. So my question is this: Is there a different mechanism for specifying the default ActionMapping class than doing so in web.xml?

Re: attribute and name attributes of ActionMapping
If you use mapping.getName() all the time, you're stuck with storing the form bean only under the form bean's name. That may or may not be a big deal to your current app, but I'd suggest using getAttribute() instead to protect yourself against future changes (such as, for example, having multiple actions that want to use the same form bean in session scope, but under different attribute names). thanks craig, now I got it : ) the docs are not very clear regard to parameter use. The Structs in Action explain it as you did (just found it now:)). Craig R.

Dynamic ActionMapping params
I have created several sites that use the mapping.findForward(BLA) method to forward (or redirect) to a relative URL. This has always been statically specified in my struts-config.xml like this: forward name=success path=/main_layout.jsp redirect=true/ then in code I do: mapping.findForward(BLA); //(simple stuff) Now I have a need to forward to a URL that will have dynamic parameters like this: /main_layout.jsp?param1=valueparam2=value$param3=value Not sure how to pull this off. Obviously I can't use a statically defined forward definition. I guess I could put the params in the request, which works fine if I forward, but what if I redirect. I would have to put them in the session. Not clean coding in my opinion. I would rather specify as querystring params. Anyone done this? I am using Struts v1.02 Jim Kennedy IT Consultant -

RE: Dynamic ActionMapping params
The way I've solved this is to: - get the configured ActionForward from mapping.findFoward(BLA) - build a new path string using the path from the configured ActionForward and the dynamic querystring - create a new instance of ActionForward - populate it with the new path and the other properties from the configured ActionForward - return this new ActionForward May not be elegant, but it works for me. -Original Message- From: Jim Kennedy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2003 3:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Dynamic ActionMapping params I have created several sites that use the mapping.findForward(BLA) method to forward (or redirect) to a relative URL.

getting an ActionMapping class from within a custom tag
Hi, What: I would like to find the roles associated with an ActionMapping from within a custom tag, but I only have the action name so I guess I need to get an instance of the ActionMapping class. How can I do this? How do I get an ActionMapping class, given the name of the action? Why: I want a generalized way to hide links to actions that the currently logged-in user doesn't have access to. So what I plan to do is subclass the html:link tag-- my subclass will check the current user's access to the action for the specified link, and either hide it, or print only the link text.

When I use the normal signature, I can't see my custom attributes.

You can write your own ActionMapping Class, which should extend the struts provided ActionMapping class.

Submitting form to an ActionMapping with no formbean?
Hello all, I have a quick question... if I have an ActionMapping defined, which uses type org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction, and I want to invoke this Action via a form submit button, what is the best way to accomplish this? If I don't specify a formbean in the ActionMapping definition, I get an error Cannot retrieve definition for form bean null' but in this case, the Action doesn't need any form information. For now, I worked around this by creating a class NullForm that extends ActionForm, and creating a formbean dummy using this class, and then naming it in my ActionMapping definition. I was wondering if there was a better way to do this?

Re: Submitting form to an ActionMapping with no formbean?
I had this same problem...it was because I had accidentally included some additional information in my action mapping for that action in my struts-config.xml file. I've successfully done what you're talking about if I keep it at just: action path=/add_contact type=com.equiscape.webapp.crm.action.CreateContact forward name=success path=/add_quick_contact.do/ /action On Thu, 2003-03-13 at 17:22, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello all, I have a quick question... if I have an ActionMapping defined, which uses type org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction, and I want to invoke this Action via a form submit button, what is the best way to accomplish this?

the ActionMapping input property can optionally be the name of an ActionForward instead. but ERROR

ActionMapping enhancement?
Do any of you face this issue? and how do you deal with it? SCENARIO: I have a set of classes that handle event calendars. The same classes can be used within one site to maintain multiple event calendars. The event calendar contains multiple categories. I want to utilize the event calendar from various urls to display specific event calendars: /do/ec/city - shows event calendar for city events /do/ec/elksclub - shows event calendar for elks club etc... But I want to provide default parameters to each of the mappings so that the event calendar action knows which event calendar to display without having to pass it in through a query parameter. In other words I want to handle the default parameters in the struts-config.xml. The only solutions both include extending the ActionMapping class and using the set-property in the action-mapping of the struts-config.xml: SOLUTIONS 1) Create a new module (Event Calendar module). Provide a custom extended ActionMapping to handle properties that may be passed in for the classes used under the module. 2) Extend the ActionMapping class and provide a setter/getter that receives a comma delimited value ([0],[1];0=key 1=value) and stores it into a HashMap in the extended ActionMapping class. I could then provide an accessor method to retrieve a particular property in the hashmap (i.e. getValue(String key)). I could then retrieve the value from the action mapping reference within my action class to initialize default values based on the mapping of the url. Thoughts? Corrections? REASONS: Default parameters that are contained in a url querystring get difficult to handle. It is nice to be able to change them in one place when needed. This avoids having to pillage through every page that may contain a reference to a partical url/querystring combo and adjust the parameters rather that just one. Also, if the action mapping could contain a hashmap of properties... one could provide runtime configuration info to an Action class in order to affect it's behavior a certain way. This promotes reusability of code.

RE: ActionMapping enhancement?
Great. Question: I don't want to write an action-mapping class that has properties for my event calendar action classes being used for my content management action classes. That is the problem that I see. One ActionMapping class for all your actions in the struts-config.xml. I like the idea of the hashmap so that I can access dynamic/configurable properties from a common place in all my action classes. But, at the same time I don't fill up my action mapping class with a bunch of unneccessary getter/setters that don't apply to all my action classes.

RE: ActionMapping enhancement?
Also, if someone is accessing an action mapping from outside the website the solution Jerome provided will set the default values even without the querystring. html:link only works if you are accessing the url from within the website and can access the forward param ensuring that the querystring will exist. I like having a way of providing the default values when the url is accessed from any avenue.

Hey Ferran, I think the problem is the path you're using: /do/admin/AdminPreCreateUserentity=rolamp;action=findamp;reference=rol The syntax is not correct.

I have recently migrated from 1.0 to 1.1 and have been having a problem with
accessing the ActionMapping in my JSP. I have a custom ActionMapping,
HACActionMapping, which I have added several getters and mutators.
With version 1.0, I used this code in my JSP:
%
ActionMappings actionMappings =
(ActionMappings)application.getAttribute(Action.MAPPINGS_KEY);
HACActionMapping hacMapping =
(HACActionMapping)actionMappings.findMapping(/tmsLogin); // Path hard
coded for example
if (hacMapping == null) {
% %=(new String(** hacMapping Null** ))% %
} else {
% %=hacMapping.isLoginRequired()% %
}
%
This works, when there is only one struts-config.xml. In Struts 1.1,
ActionMappings has been deprecated, and I don't know how to code this for
1.1.
I am also using the new module functionality for my application. When a
user logs in, they are switched to another module using a SwitchAction. So,
there are three struts-config files for my app. After I log in, I am now in
a new module with a new struts-config-pp.xml. If I use the old
ActionMappings way, I only have access to the mappings that are in my
default sturts-config.xml. This was confirmed, when I placed this piece of
code in my JSP
%
String[] allMappings = actionMappings.findMappings();
out.println(*X*\n);
for (int j=0; j allMappings.length; j++)
out.println(allMappings[j]+\n);
out.println(*X*\n);
%
When this ran, it only produced a list of actions in my default
struts-config.xml. Does someone know how I would code this using modules,
in 1.1? I have converted all items that needed to be converted for 1.1,
i.e., created new config/moduleName entires in my web.xml, and removed the
mapping parameter in web.xml and replaced it with an entry in
action-mapping type=com.xxx.HACActionMapping. Thanks in advance.

Re: Accessing ActionMapping in JSP
Have you tried the bean:struts tag (was also available in 1.0.2)?
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/struts-bean.html#struts
P.S.
new String(** hacMapping Null** ) is *EVIL*! A simple String literal will do.

ActionMapping/ActionConfig cast in RequestProcessor.java
Howdy -- I have what is I guess a noob question, but I simply can't figure out these seemingly important lines of code in RequestProcessor.java: 646ActionMapping mapping = (ActionMapping) 647moduleConfig.findActionConfig(path); This appears on lines 646-7 in both 1.02 and 1.1. ActionMapping is a *subclass* of ActionConfig, so how does this execute without throwing a ClassCastException? I can cast an ActionMapping as an ActionConfig but not the other way around. Yet, somehow, RequestProcessor seems to be doing just that. Below is some sample code to illustrate my question. Can anyone shed some light on this? It's too much majic for me. -- Carlos -- snip -- import org.apache.struts.action.*; import org.apache.struts.config.*; import org.apache.struts.config.impl.*; //config the module ModuleConfig module = new ModuleConfigImpl(); ActionConfig LOGIN = new ActionConfig(); LOGIN.setPath(/login); LOGIN.setType(org.foo.LoginAction); LOGIN.setInput(/login.jsp); module.addActionConfig(LOGIN); module.freeze(); //this throws a CCE ActionMapping mapping = (ActionMapping) module.findActionConfig(/login); -- snip --

It really is magic ... more so than I normally like to employ, but it was necessary for backwards compatibility. In Struts 1.0, the name of the JavaBean that stored stuff from an action element was ActionMapping -- and, this method was passed as an argument to every Action in the world. In Struts 1.1, we migrated the configuration objects to a new package (org.apache.struts.config), and gave them all names consistent with the element name that they represented (ActionConfig in this case). However, it wasn't a good idea to break everyone's existing Actions by changing the calling sequence, so ActionMapping is now a subclass of ActionConfig. The secret to making this work is that the objects stored (in ModuleConfig) for this collection really are ActionMappings and not just ActionConfigs -- so, when you pull them back out, the cast works. It also works for custom user subclasses, as long as the user extends ActionMapping and not ActionConfig. -- Carlos Craig -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
ActionMapping, struts-config and custom attributes
Hi there, Me again. Is there a way to set a custom attribute for an action mapping, then retrieve that attribute through the ActionMapping class?

Steve == Steve Vanspall [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Steve Is there a way to set a custom attribute for an action mapping, then Steve retrieve that attribute through the ActionMapping class? Steve I am using Struts 1.1-b2 It appears there's two ways to do this. You can get a hint about this by looking at the struts-config_1_1.dtd in the distribution. I've never tried either of these, but it's relatively clear how to use them from the DTD. First is the parameter attribute of the action element. This just allows you to set one value, and retrieve it with getParameter() on the ActionMapping. Second is to use nested set-property elements in your action element. This requires adding additional javabean setters/getters to your Action class. It's useful to know that the set-property nested element is available in several other places in the struts-config.xml file. I have not checked to see whether either of these features were available in 1.1b2. I see them in the latest source. -- === David M.

not getting right ActionMapping class with StrutsTestCase
I noticed the following when trying to use StrutsTestCase (latest version of StrutsTestCase with Struts B2). It seems that when a request is sent via StrutsTest that RequestProcessor,processMapping does not find the ActionMapping class that has been configured in web.xml. Instead it finds the Struts ActionMapping class. If I hit the same server via the browser then the configured ActionMapping class is found by RequestProcessor,processMapping. Thanks for any explanation as to why the these two situations are behaving differently. -- Nick
Newbie question - ActionMapping
hey all.. just installed struts, got demo up and running fine on iPlanet Web Server. just trying to create a simple demo app. 1 view(jsp) 2 fields 1 form, matching fields 1 action It seems that my jsp forwards correctly to my action mapping, my bean is populated correctly and validated. my logs look like this: [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Processing a POST for /submitform1 [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Setting locale 'en_US' [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Looking for ActionForm bean under attribute 'form1' [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Creating new ActionForm instance of class 'com.sc.struts.form.Form1' [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Storing instance under attribute 'form1' in scope 'session' [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Populating bean properties from this request [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Validating input form properties [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: No errors detected, accepting input [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Looking for Action instance for class com.sc.struts.action.Form1Action [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Double checking for Action instance already there [03/Dec/2002:13:50:23] info ( 2956): action: Creating new Action instance and my app just displays a blank screen (no errors, no errors in log file) in my browser with my new '.do' url.

Request parameter with actionMapping
Hello, I'm trying to send request parameter (i.e. /uri.do?parameter=value) to the redirected page actionMapping returns, but couldn't find an easy way to do this. Can someone help? I suppose I can forward the control back to the intended page by creating a new instance of ActionForward, but that seems to defeat the purpose of using action mapping. Also, is there a way to send the attribute/value pairs as a post method back to the action mapped jsp page?

Extending ActionMapping in Struts 1.1 - classcast exception.
I am working on an app with Tomcat 4.1 and Struts 1.1. I would like to
extend an ActionMapping, in order to verify that the user is logged in. I
extend an ActionMapping, create the getter and setter methods for the
property that I have added.
Finally, I change my web.xml and my struts-config.xml files as indicated
below. However, in my execute ( ...) method, when I cast the ActionMapping
parameter to a UsersActionMapping, I get a ClassCastException. It seems
that for some reason it is disregarding the fact that I want it to pass an
UserActionMapping object , and instead passes me a regular ActionMapping
object. If comment out the cast to UsersActionMapping, the execute method
executes successfully..
So, my question is.. what am I missing.. what else do I have to do in
order to get an instance of an UserActionMapping object in my execute
method, instead of getting the normal ActionMapping object... ?
Thanks in advance...

please help - difficult to understand how ActionMapping works
Hi All, I am experiencing a problem with action mapping. The error statement seen in browser is - Not Found The requested URL /struts-ex1/logon.do was not found on this server. Apache/1.3.14 Server at struts.test.com Port 80 The details are pasted below. I have not modified any contents of the web.xml file except indenting it properly as per my editor. I think this should not make any differnce. I am using Linux, JDK1.2.2 with Tomcat 3.2.3 under Apache 1.3.14. Also I have created a simple JSP page named index.jsp with a login form. The action of this form is set to /index and not index.do. Hence, I also have not defined the servlet-mapping tag in web.xml. Is it necessary to add .do to every action. On submitting this form, I get the same error as stated above. Also please suggest a method to debug a struts application. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Re: ActionMapping question
Ok - you missed a subtle distiction :-) It's never going to be different form what is stated in the config file. You could, however, choose to instantiate/populate a form yourself and put it under some key that you wanted instead of the key Struts would normally expect to find the form under. The attribute property would then specify the name under which you poked the form. MOST of the time, Struts is going to handle your form creation - and the population will be handled by Struts on form submits. Now, for the times Struts creates the form, it's going to use the name attribute of the form-bean -- but if you put a form out there which Struts does not create (and has no knowledge of!) you could use the attribute property to specify the name it can be looked up by. The form would have to be a descendant of ActionForm in order to get passed to the action, but you may have some case in which it were handy to do this. Maybe ... well, I can't dream up a good example. The point I've been trying to make is that this is something Struts has done above and beyond the call of duty (IMHO) - and that it's not going to get used (as you've observed) by most folks. That being the case - there's really no need to get hung-up over it :-) I really wish one of the commiters would give a more fleshy response. Don't feel other folks' silence is a cue to keep posting the same question though - please :-) Struts is open source, and, while Craig does a phenomenal job of answering many questions (both courteously and well beyond fully) - and while other folks, committers and non-committers, try to follow in his footsteps, there are times questions go unanswered. It doesn't mean nobody saw the question or that they didn't notice nobody answered it - it's entirely possible nobody had a good answer and so didn't want to eat up bandwidth speculating. I'm sorry if I haven't explained this to your satisfaction - I do hope someone with a better explaination will step forward - but I really don't see why understanding this one property is so important :-) Struts won't use it unless you tell it to - there's no reason to care about it's existence that I see ...

Struts ActionMapping / OC4J problem

Weird. I always get a stack trace when I have a misconfiguration.

I never specify a type there any my stuff always works. I suppose this is where you can make all of your actions forward/redirect by default by specifying a different action class.

If you would be so kind please tell us what you have tried next time - rather than just stating your problem :-) I don't know everyone on the list, and my rule of thumb is to start with the simplest solution and work toward the more complex one. When I hear configuration and doesn't work I think stack trace. In order to cut through the basic solutions and hop right to a more detailed examination, you should state what you have tried :-) Sorry you felt like I was brushing you off (I'm nearly certain you did).

You need to realize that we're not all omniscient though - and I think most people problem-solve like I do (very deliberately - start here; work to there).

RE: Struts ActionMapping / OC4J problem
Maybe a stupid question, but I guess it never hurts to check. Is the servlet properly mapped, and are you using the correct pattern to call the URL? For kicks, mark the second action as your unknown action and then send some random request ( e.g. blah.do ) and see what happens there. -Original Message- From: Thomas Delnoij [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, September 27, 2002 8:43 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Struts ActionMapping / OC4J problem Dear colleagues, I have a problem configuring Struts to run properly with the embedded OC4J app server in Oracle 9i JDeveloper.

the 'attribute' property of ActionMapping
This is not a question, but rather a suggestion. I reuse the same FormBean in session scope for three different ActionMapping, and most of the FormBean properties are not reseted. So if the user comes back to the same form, sees the recently entered values. But for these 3 forms I want to remember 3 different entires. So I added the 'attribute' property for each ActionMappings with 3 different values. I have to handle the name and the type attribute for the html:form tag where the name is the same as in the mapping respectively, and the type is the same as the name for the FormBean in the struts-config.xml. I think these attributes could be determined from the ActionMapping, but they aren't yet. Did I misunderstood something in the documentation, or are these attributes used not properly, or has the 'attribute' property for the ActionMapping got a different purpose?

The data is basically static. Since it is specified in the struts-config.xml file it is read and set once when the application starts up. This way you can give your action initialization parameters that can be specified in the config file.

Re: Warning when extending ActionMapping.
Hi, I've added 4 lines in web.xml to tell ActionServlet not to read the DTD: init-param param-namevalidating/param-name param-valuefalse/param-value /init-param Then, warnings disappear. It's not a real solution, but for today, it's good :-). Thanks, for the link. -- C.
