Re: Struts-chain
I tried to build to get the chain sample app... and I can't. I got the common and struts chain jars built. In order to build sample chains war... you have to get sturts to build from source... which requires you get commons-lib.home of CVS of jakarta commons and sandobox... yuck.

It's only NOT SUPPORTED YET because nobody has done the work to support it :-).
Feel free to take a crack at this, but it's probably going to be somewhat more
involved than some of the other functionality, to replicate or replace the way
that the standard FileUpload functionality wraps the servlet request.
If it were up to me, I'd just implement file upload as a Filter instead of
inside the framework, but that would mean requiring a Servlet 2.3 platform.

You're welcome ... its going to be fun to see the various ways commons-chain
gets employed.

Re: Struts-chain
Thanks. I hacked it and got the job done.
It is a great job Craig. Your vision proves to be on the target again.
By the way, file upload is a very important aspect of Struts
applications. I will look closely into it. But is there any serious
reason while file-upload is *NOT SUPPORTED YET* in the struts-chain?
On behalf of many developers, me included, thanks for your great effort. :-)

Copy the "catalina-ant.jar" file from your Tomcat install's server/lib directory
into the "lib" directory of Ant. This causes the Tomcat integration commands
to be recognized.

Where did you find an example of using a Struts chain? .V The struts-example is in cvs/jakarta-struts/contrib/struts-chain or in the nightly built of struts-src /jakarta-struts/contrib/struts-chain There is a built.properties and built.xml to create struts-example war file using struts-chain. The build process is terrible, so you need to hack it. Here are the steps i used: 1) use maven to build jetspeed-2 so i get portlet-api-1.0.jar in my local .maven/repository. Do not use the one in struts-chain build (I thing 0.6-dev) 2) use maven to build commons-chain, so i get commons-chain-0.1.jar in my local repository. Do not use the one in struts-chain build. 3) Edit the build.properties using built.properties.sample in struts-chain directory with your appropriate settings. 4) Edit the buiild.xml in struts-chain directory with your appropriate settings. Take out the whole section of Custom Tomcat Integration. 5) Use *ant clean dist* command to run against the edited build.xml. Be patient and correct errors in the build process as you go along. 6) The result of successful build is /struts-chain/build/webapps/example/ and /struts-chain/dist/webapps/struts-chain.war that you can manually copy to tomcat/webapps directory and run sub app /struts-chain 7) You may likely have a problem to get struts-example running under the new design of struts-chain. If this is the case, then compare contents of struts-chain and old struts-example. Copy the missing of .dtd and jar files from struts-example to struts-chain. P.S. I hear you are also looking at HiveMind too. Let's see how we put struts-chain catalog(s) as a HiveMind service so we can combine the strength and simplicity of the 2 frameworks into a simple-practical solution.

Re: Struts-chain
Howdy:
I want to congratulate Struts committers for a very fine work in
Struts-chain and share some of my finding to those who want to get their
feet wet in the CoR pattern.
1) First, i am able to have struts-chain example (the old
struts-example with struts-chain built from cvs) up and running using
j2sdk1.4.2_02 and tomcat 5.0.14. Some hacks in the build process is
required. I use both ant and maven.
2) There is very little things to change in existing Struts
application for running under the commons-chain. The design is very clean.
3) IMHO, when struts-chain has full implementations for portlet, jsf
and the buisiness layer (Ted Whiteboard), struts will definitely rock.
The design pattern for struts-chain context is just simple thread-safe
singleton. The performance can be better, especially when we move to the
implementation for business layer, with cache and pool services.
HiveMind may be a good companion.
