RE: JSP Include Vs. Struts Template Include

[Andrew Hill]

Not sure, but if you after a really good templating mechanism forget those
two and take a look at the struts Tiles extension.

Subject: JSP Include Vs. Struts Template Include


Hi guys,

Can anyone help me understand the diff. between the JSP include (say
including 2
to 3 .jsp pages in the main jsp) and Struts Template include tags.

My main doubt is  Why Struts template include tag is preferred over its
counterpart?

Confused with the pros. and cons. of both the approach.

Awaiting your powerful replies.

Re: [Q] struts-template - I centralized the layout file, but am Imissing something?

[James CE Johnson]

Hi Jeff,

I generally use Tiles to handle these kinds of things.

In your struts-config.xml install the Tiles plugin:
   
   
   
   
In your tiles-definitions.xml define your layout and other tiles:
  


 
   
   
   
   
   
 
 
 
  
 
 



Back in struts-config your actions forward to tiles instead of jsps:

 
   
 
   
 
Finally, your layout.jsp
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tiles.tld" prefix="tiles" %>

 
   
   
   
   
 

Hope that helps a bit,
J

There is a PageUnauthGreet.jsp, PageAuthGreet.jsp and PageLoginUser.jsp.
Each has an identical structure:

The only difference between the 3 files is the FOO.jsp which loads the
content tile specific for that particular page.
Each one loads a different tile: TileUnauth.jsp, TileAuth.jsp and
FormLogon.jsp
This structure works fine. But it started to bug me that whenever I create a
new page, I had to create the structure.jsp and then the tile.jsp
So then I implemented a MasterLayout.jsp page like this:

<%@ taglib uri='/tags/struts-template' prefix='template' %>
<%@ taglib uri='/tags/struts-bean' prefix='bean' %>








Now I've been able to get rid of all my structure.jsp files and replace it
with this single MasterLayout.jsp
I can invoke it from the struts-config.xml with an action reference like
this:

So essentially, I can now display any page that follows the standard
structure by writing a single tile for the "content" section of the page and
then invoking the MasterLayout with a tilePage= parameter to indicate which
tile should be thrown into the content section.
I have two questions:

1) Am I overlooking something that is likely to bite me?

2) Is there a more elegant way to control the filler tile?

In particular, I'm not crazy about the resulting URL line displayed in the
browser location. When I forwarded to the logon success page, I had a nice
url that just said:
http://localhost/MyAppName/LogonSubmit.do
But now that I am redirecting (instead of forwarding - to break the
back-button stomping issue) it shows a much icky-er
http://localhost:/MyAppName/MasterLayout.jsp?tilePage=/TileWelcome.jsp
I can live with it the way it is, but I want to be sure I'm exploiting all
the power there is to be had from the templates and tiles system, the action
forwarding syntax and all of that stuff.

You are on the verge of using tiles, go for it.

Re: Problem with Struts Template and proxy caching

[Cedric Dumoulin]

 Hi,

 I think that once the response is committed, you can't change the 
response's header (check the spec).
 So, if you set the header after the template is inserted, the change 
has no effect because the insert commit the response.

If we remove the template tags, everything's ok with the headers... (we are

Pros and Cons of Hard coding a JSP page in a Struts template vs using a parameter?

[Smith, Johnathan M.]

I would like to know the pros and cons of hard coding a JSP page in a struts
template.

Which struts template is better on speed and memory?

EXAMPLE1
<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ page import="javax.servlet.http.*" %>
<%@ page import="javax.servlet.jsp.*" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld" prefix="template" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/cdd.tld" prefix="cdd"  %>






EXAMPLE2:
<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ page import="javax.servlet.http.*" %>
<%@ page import="javax.servlet.jsp.*" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld" prefix="template" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/cdd.tld" prefix="cdd"  %>



"/>


I would think that example number 1 is better and faster??  From looking at
the source code example 1 is bigger do to a include inline?

You won't notice any difference in speed or memory between the two.  Looks 
like the second one is more flexible though.  Why are you importing 
javax.servlet and javax.servlet.jsp?

Re: global forward and Struts template--(error)can't forward responseafter it's commited

[Cedric Dumoulin]

Hello Keven,

The error message you got says exactly what is wrong: you can't do a
forward once the response is committed.

Checking your code, it appears that you do a forward in a page inserted
by the template. This is not possible due to jsp specification.
Templates use "include" to do the insert. A side effect is that the
output stream is flushed, and response committed. So, once you have done
an include, you can't do a forward ...

struts template

[Keven]

Hi, All:

I would like to implement web pages using struts. the page layout consist of four 
parts: top menu, side bar, main content area, and footer. Depend on the role of users, 
the top menu will change accordingly--some button wii be disappeared, some buttons are 
added. I think this should be achieved by struts template. And for every page, there 
are two jsps, one is template jsp, and one is the jsp that uses the template jsp. I 
haven't actually implement it yet. Does anyone know the best way to achieve it? Thank 
you for your time and help.

Problem using nested struts template tag

[Ying Gao]

I use nested template tag as the following:



  

  
 
 
 
 
  

  



template.jsp is a template that contains header, content and footer.
contentTemplate.jsp is a template that contains a title image and a detail
content jsp to which I pass myContent.jsp. It works fine except that the
browser (both IE and Netscape) keeps busy for a while after the page header,
content and footer are loaded. It seems that the browser tries to load
something else.
JavaScript won't work until the browser finish loading. I have no idea what
it is loading.
It only happens when I use template:put tag to pass a content
(myContent.jsp) to the nested
template (contentTemplate.jsp) without using 'direct="true"'. If I use
'direct="true"'
the browser returns immediately but that is not what I want. I want the
content to be
included instead of printed directly.
Does anyone know what the problem is? Is there any solution or workaround?
Thanks.

Re: struts template opinion

[Eddie Bush]

Yes - that's the key:  doing.  You may have to gain some insight on how 
to "plug-in" tiles to your application.  It just occurred to me that 
1.0.2 doesn't (I don't think) have the plug-in architecture.  Therefore 
... I'm not quite sure what you need to do - probably use the servlet 
included in Tiles.  Cedric is probably around somewhere and will be glad 
to clearify.  So far as the rest of the Tiles behavior (in Struts 
1.0.2), I believe it is accurately depicted by what Chuck's chapter has 
to say about it.

You'll get it!  Heck, if I can do this stuff, anyone can ;-)

Re: struts template opinion

You only need to use the tiles actions if you forward DIRECTLY to a tile 
though - ie. there is no physical page and you want to forward to it. 
 Look at Chuck's chapter and try it out - and then post here if you have 
questions ;-)  Playing with it is the _best_ way to learn it.

Good Luck!

Re: struts template opinion

I looked at the Struts templating mechanism ages ago but I don't 
remember anything about it now.  I do believe that you can use Tiles 
with 1.0.2.  Search the list.  Cedric just posted a reply to someone 
either today or yesterday on this very topic.

Good Luck!

What is the difference between Template and Tiles?

I am currently limited to using the Struts 1.0.2 so I think that Tiles is 
out for the time being.

Is there a migration path from Templates to Tiles?

So i'm looking at jsp includes vs. templates??

Re: struts template opinion

[Eddie Bush]

Extra effort?  How is it extra effort to use a template scheme?  You 
reduce the number of places you have to maintain information down to 
(ideally) just one.  Tiles is even better, by the way.  It takes things 
one step further and lets you seperate your layout definition from it's 
actual presentation.  This is very powerful - not only do you gain the 
ability to inherit definitions (layouts) and only modify what you really 
need to, you also gain the ability to write you definitions in the XML 
config file and do away with any JSP files that were once dedicated just 
to specifying layouts.  It is a bit more "work" (learning - brain-work - 
phew! hard brain work at first too, but it pays off!) initially, but ... 
you have to try it and use it to come to a genuine realization of the 
power it has.  Once you have, you won't want to use anything else!

Eddie

Take a look at Tiles:

   http://www.lifl.fr/~dumoulin/tiles/

Mmmm mmm good.  Definitely worth the effort (and you'll sing the "Cedric is
my hero!" song every time your client calls wanting to change a header
color, menus, page layout style, etc.).  In addition to breaking up your
pages into reusable components, it also makes presenting different views for
different roles and/or user-agents (e.g. phone, PC browser, etc) a snap.

Re: [Struts / Template] Problems including a "*.do".

[Cedric Dumoulin]

  I think that you can't call an action (* .do) from inside a template' insert. This is
because templates do an include(), and then action do a forward(). This result in a
'error : response already committed' because jsp forbids a forward() after an
include().
  Try to use Tiles instead of templates.

Re: struts template

[Luis M. Rosso]

Hi, Henry !

I think the problem is a confusion on which file is the template.

In the sample, the template should be 'main.jsp', and not 'header.jsp'; the
latter file is just an element that should be inserted inside the template.

Hence, I would change the names used for almost all of the files. But, for
the sake of simplicity, I will keep them in the suggestions given below.

In 'main.jsp', which is the template, I would use:

<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-template.tld" prefix="g_template" %>

instead of:

<%@ taglib uri="mytemplate.jsp" prefix="g_template" %>

and would place this directive at the top of the page, among the other ones.

Then, I would create the following JSP page, which is an 'instance' of the
template, and will be the page exposed to the users of the application:

<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-template.tld" prefix="template"%>

  


Hope this helps

Cheers

Luis

RE: struts template

[Arik Levin ( Tikal )]

Here is an example:


This is a xtestTemplate.jsp:

<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld' prefix='template' %>






  




  
  
   





this is how u use it:

<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld' prefix='template' %>
  
  
  
  



make your JSP's and just put them wherever u want them.

Re: logic:iterate with Struts template

[Bryan Field-Elliot]

Consider double-checking that "productArrayList" is in fact a
session-scope object (or request-scope), and not a page-scope object. If
it's page-scope, then it won't be visible to included pages.

Re: Using struts-template as taglib

[Robin Meade]

David Geary discusses his Template taglib successor, Regions,
in this JavaWorld article:

http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2001/jw-1228-jsptemplate_p.html

An alternative approach to layout is to use the
Servlet 2.3 filter mechanism.

The SiteMesh taglib
(http://www.opensymphony.com/sitemesh/decorators.html)
and the Maverick MVC framework
(http://mav.sourceforge.net) use filters for
implementing layout.

Re: Using struts-template as taglib

Advanced Javaserver Pages is a great book but I have run into problems with
his tags, as they were compiled with Xalan1 ( now deprecated ) I had to hack
some of his source to work with Xalan 2 to use any xslt related
functionality.

Re: Using struts-template as taglib

[Cedric Dumoulin]

  You can use Tiles, which is compatible with Templates and can be used without
Struts. If you just need template tags, you don't need to use Tile's servlet.

  It is planned to move Tiles to the taglib project.

RE: Using struts-template as taglib

[Vaughan Jackson]

Andras,

I believe you can download a jar file containing a 
templates taglib from http://www.phptr.com/advjsp/.

The author of this taglib is David Geary, the same author 
as that of the template tags in Struts. I think this
version is just an improved version of that in Struts
(although some of the tag attribute names have been 
changed).

HTH,
Vaughan.

Using struts-template as taglib

[Andras Balogh]

Hi all,

I want to ask you about the posibility to using the struts-template
taglib in a project that is not using struts at all.
Initally i searched for a template taglib at
http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/
but i couldn't find any.
I then thought about using the struts-template taglib.
So i took struts.jar and removed anything not related to
struts-template. This is legal to do?
I wonder if will be available the struts-template as taglib?

Sorry for being off-topic a little bit ..

RE: Struts' Template

[Marcel Andres]

Isn't it possible for you, to create the error page in the same way? You could include 
title.jsp, header.jsp etc. on the error page, too, and so it would not be a problem to 
forward to this page.

HowTo: Struts Template containing JSP with Action and ActionForms associated

[storck]

Hi,

I have a template build with struts and I have a JSP wich uses that template
and looks like the following:

<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld' prefix='template' %>







AND I have a struts-config:



















If I use "" I get a exception wich says that
the bean "showBoxesBean" could not be found in session so I thought I must
use "" in my
JSP. But than I get a "javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Servlet Exception"
throwen in the template-insert-tag.

The Action associated with my ShowSelectionBoxes.jsp has the duty to fill
some selectboxes.
What I want to do is to have a JSP build with template wich has on the left
side a sidebar containing 3 selectboxes and in the middle showing some
content wich is although a jsp with a Action and a ActionForm

PLEASE can anyone help me how to achieve that ??
THANKS!

Re: Bug in Struts Template

[Cedric Dumoulin]

  Hi,

  It is a bug from your web container, not from Templates lib.
  Which web Container do you use ?
  You can bypass this problem by adding flush="true" in all your  tags
(i.e. : )

Bug in Struts Template

[Minh Tran]

Hi,

can someone please let me know if there is a known bug with the struts
template libs.. on how it produces html code...  notice in the html output
below has the  structure defined in the template at the end with all
of the dynamic data printed ahead of it...  there is definitely something
wrong.. the data should be within the template structure defined..

I know this has to be a known bug.. since it's too big of a bug to not be
known...

also.. could you please let me know how to fix it..

Thanks,
Minh

Introduction 


Using Templates 


Optional Content 

... and more ...
  


   
  
  
   

This example application is based on http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-09-2000/jw-0915-jspweb_p.html";>U
sing JSP templates to encapsulate Webpage layout and encourage modular
design by David Geary. Follow that link for the full article, which also
covers using role-based and nested templates. The template classes described
in the Java World article were the basis for those included with Struts
1.0.
Introduction
Window toolkits typically provide a layout mechanism
that positions widgets in a container; for example, AWT and Swing have
layout managers, whereas VisualWorks Smalltalk has wrappers.
Because layout undergoes many changes over the course
of development, it's important to encapsulate that functionality so layout
can be modified with minimal impact to the rest of the application. In fact,
layout managers are an example of one of the tenets of object-oriented
design: encapsulate the concept that varies, which is also a fundamental
theme for many design patterns.
JSP does not provide direct support for encapsulating
layout, so web pages with identical formats usually replicate layout code;
for example, A Web Page Layout shows a web page containing sections
for a header, footer, sidebar, and main content.
The layout of the page shown in A Web Page
Layout is implemented with HTML table tags, as listed in Including
Content.

Including Content

<html><head><title>Templates</title></head>
<body background='graphics/blueAndWhiteBackground.gif'>

<table width='610'>
<tr valign='top'><td><jsp:include page='sidebar.jsp'/></td>
<td><table>
<tr><td><jsp:include page='header.html'/></td></tr>
<tr><td><jsp:include page='chapter.jsp'/></td></tr>
<tr><td><jsp:include page='footer.jsp'/></td></tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr> 
</table>
</body></html>
In Including Content, content is included with
<jsp:include> which allows content to vary without modifying HTML;
however, because the layout is hardcoded, layout changes require
modifications to the page. If a website has many pages with identical
formats, even simple layout changes require modifications to all of the
pages.
Using A Template


<%@ taglib URI='/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld' prefix='template' %>

<template:insert template='/chapterTemplate.jsp'>
   <template:put name='title' content='Templates' direct='true'/>
   <template:put name='header' content='/header.html'/>
   <template:put name='sidebar' content='/sidebar.jsp'/>
   <template:put name='content' content='/introduction.html'/>
   <template:put name='footer' content='/footer.html'/>
</template:insert>

To minimize the impact of layout changes, a mechanism
is needed for dynamically including layout in addition to content. That way,
both layout and content can be changed without modifying files that use
them. For large websites that have many pages with identical formats, such a
mechanism is valuable because it localizes changes to layout. That mechanism
is JSP templates.

Re: error regarding invoking css from struts-template

[Ted Husted]

There is  a sample Web app that demonstrates how to use the
struts-template tags, but you don't need to deploy that with your
applicaton.

Struts-template is one of the custom tag libraries, like bean, html, and
logic. All you just need is the stuts-template.tld, same as any of the
others.

The struts-templage tags just run out and assemble your JSP from one or
more pieces. 

If the pieces reference a CSS, then the resulting JSP will too. But it
is the browser that applies the CSS, not the tags. The tags just
generate HTML, the rest is up to the browser (or other client). 

Have you tried deploying your CSS without the templates?

I believe this is just a CSS path issue, and doesn't have anything to do
with the template tags.

Hi, am i correct that the struts- template is a webapp and can i
physically move it's content to my struts-bbnpa thus move it up to where
tomcat is looking.Thus if this correct must i then constantly only refer
to content in my web app named struts-bbnpa.

Re: problem with invoking struts-template!!

[Chuck Amadi]

Hi, the container is now throwing up -  http://localhost:8080/struts-template/css/bbnpa.css
even when i type struts-bbnpa as opposed struts-template.!!
Thus my bbnpa.css file appears in the browser as below.You mentioned
moving CSS up to tomcat where i.e to struts-bbnpa (my web application)
/* BBNP Site Style Sheet */
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6  {color:green; font-family: arial, helvetica,
sans-serif}
h1 {font-size: 20pt}
h4 {font-size: 10pt}
h1.cymraeg {position:relative; left:20px; top:0px; z-index:2}
h1.english {position:relative; left:30px; top:-28px; z-index:1; font-weight:200}
div.pageIntro {color:green; font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:12pt; margin-left:50px; margin-right:100px; margin-top:10px}
div.index {color:green; font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:12pt; margin-left:30px}
div.textNav { color:teal; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;

I haven't done anything with templates, so this may not be correct.
However, if you are referencing a style sheet in your header (on a

    /struts-bbnpa/css/bbnpa.css
is a reference from the context, not the WEB-INF directory.
Therefore, you would want to change your link to:

However, Im not sure if the template stuff changes this.

I don't believe that the JSP templates and CSS files are strongly
coupled. I believe the browser applies the CSS, not the template. You
might just want to move the CSS up to where Tomcat is looking for it.

h, that's very strange.

i'm using the following:








and i don't have any problems - the include works fine (acts as
)
if the above doesn't work for you, try the following:






<%= xout2 %>




i have tested this with Resin 1.2.5 and JRun Server 3.0 SP2a, Struts nightly

I originally wrote a Struts app that acted much like the struts-example. I
feel it's a good separation of business logic from presentation, and that it
follows the principles of MVC pretty well.

Now the GUI developers are looking to integrate all of my very ugly HTML
pages into a common look and feel. I thought that the struts-template
mechanism would be perfect. I can define my header, sidebar, footer and
dynamic content using this library.

However, I noticed that the struts-template mechanism seems to be based on
JSP pages, as opposed to actions. For example, the InsertTag class' doEndTag
method calls pageContext.include, so I can't simply specify:
  

When I do that, I get an exception (which makes sense).

I'd like the best of both worlds by providing the templating capability and
still keeping my action-based web site. I was thinking of extending the
template:put tag to accept something like this:
  

That way, the action class will execute and eventually forward itself on to
the "success" page defined in struts-config.xml.

So, did I miss something here? Is my analysis of this situation right? Are
people using struts-template in a capacity other than a layout/presentation
manager? Would the Components framework by Cedric solve this? Finally, if I
got it all right, is there any interest in seeing this type of extension?

Re: struts-template and MVC

[Cedric Dumoulin]

  Hi Dan,

  Struts 'actions' do a forward at the end. This forbid to insert an action in a
template, because you can't do a forward once you have start to write the
request response.
  A solution to your problem is, using Components implementation, to replace tag
 with following :

   
   
   

  It may be interesting to be able to insert a page through an action, as you
propose. This is not very hard to implement with Components. Need to look at
this possible behavior more closely.

Cedric

P.S.: If you want to try immediately your solution with components, you can do
following quick and dirty code change in component.ComponentActionServlet.jsp :
  In method processForward(...), at the end of the class, change call to
"rd.forward(request, response);" in :
   try
 { // original behavior
 rd.forward(request, response);
 }
catch( IllegalStateException ex )
 { // Response already committed : do include
 rd.include( request, response);
 }

After that, you will be able to 'insert' an action from a template (but there
will be some problems if your 'action' forward to a definition name).

Re: struts-template and MVC

[Dan Miser]

Can you expand on this?

If you're saying that I should just change the name to 'action', then how
will Struts know which section of the template to place the data in?

And why direct='true'? That's been used when you want to display an actual
string - not when you want to execute an action.

struts-template and MVC

[Dan Miser]

I originally wrote a Struts app that acted much like the struts-example. I 
feel it's a good separation of business logic from presentation, and that it 
follows the principles of MVC pretty well.

Now the GUI developers are looking to integrate all of my very ugly HTML 
pages into a common look and feel. I thought that the struts-template 
mechanism would be perfect. I can define my header, sidebar, footer and 
dynamic content using this library.

However, I noticed that the struts-template mechanism seems to be based on 
JSP pages, as opposed to actions. For example, the InsertTag class' doEndTag 
method calls pageContext.include, so I can't simply specify:
  

When I do that, I get an exception (which makes sense).

I'd like the best of both worlds by providing the templating capability and 
still keeping my action-based web site. I was thinking of extending the 
template:put tag to accept something like this:
  

That way, the action class will execute and eventually forward itself on to 
the "success" page defined in struts-config.xml.

So, did I miss something here? Is my analysis of this situation right? Are 
people using struts-template in a capacity other than a layout/presentation 
manager? Would the Components framework by Cedric solve this? Finally, if I 
got it all right, is there any interest in seeing this type of extension?

Thanks for your time.

My struts-template - still broken

[Vijaya Narasimha]

I am having another problem with the template example. The layout is now
fine. It lays out the sidebar and the header allright. 
But it always returns with a "Error: 404 SC_NOT_FOUND null" for the content
and the footer pages. The html files for these are in the right directory (
same as the header.html, which is being picked up fine). In fact, if I put
header.html instead of introduction.html and footer.html (i.e. use
header.html for all the three contents, header, content and footer) header
is displayed fine, but for content and footer, I get "Error: 404
SC_NOT_FOUND null".

Did anyone else get this problem? Appreciate an thoughts on this problem.

Thanks

Re: My struts-template is broken - repeat (newbie)

[Vijaya Narasimha]

I am having this same problem with i-planet App server v6.0 sp2 and struts
from the april 5th nightly build.
Did anyone else using struts on iAS face this problem? I had been playing
with just the binary distribution.

Does the change that Bram suggested still hold good? Or is my problem
unrelated? Please let me know.

Thanks for youe help

we had the same problem over here(with ibm websphere), and fixed it by
adding a
pageContext.getout.flush() before the pageContext.include in the Include and
get tags of the
template tags. If you go thrue the cvs reposetory, than you can see that
this line was in the source an month ago (or so)

Re: Help PLEASE!!!! How do you create struts template file usingframe instead of table

[Cedric Dumoulin]

  Hi Anh,

  Does your application is at your server root directory, or in a site directory
(like struts-example) ?
  In this later case, you need to prefix getted url () with your site url (<%=request.getContextPath()%>) like in the
following  :

  Do the same for each getted url.

  If this doesn't work, could you compare the url shown by your browser, and the
url generated in the html file (browser->view->source ...) ?
  Does the file exist for the generated url ?

  It seems that your server doesn't flush out content while including the

RE: Help PLEASE!!!! How do you create struts template file using frame instead of table

[Hoang, Anh]

Hi Mr. DuMoulin,

Thank you for answering my question in both component and template. Template
and Component are similar so I thought I try both.
Any way, I had tried using component and template the way you show me, but I
only see the frame display but nothing else but the following error:
 "Action canceled Internet Explorer was unable to link to the Web page you
requested. The page might be temporarily unavailable."
The reason I want to use Frame is that I find a javascript menu that works
for both IE and Netscape which I want to use for our web application, the
problem is that it works only for Frame. 
Attached is the code that I have in my template and my setup page. If you
have time please take a look and tell me what did I do wrong. Thank you very
much for your help. I do really appreciated that.
anh

below is the code in my template.jsp
**
<%@ taglib uri="/struts-template.tld" prefix="template" %>
<%-- Frameset Layout component
  parameters : title, header, menu, body, footer
--%>














*
And here is the code from my insert tag:

<%@ taglib uri="/struts-template" prefix="template" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/app" prefix="app" %>

problem running struts-template example

[Éric Chamberland]

Hi,

i find a way to run struts-blank, struts-documentation and little part of
struts-example. But, when i tried struts-template, i've got only the
blue-white background?? The result html give me an empty table, why?
It look like the result of template:get didn't find the values assign in the
introduction.jsp

(I'm running with EAServer-Jaguar 3.6.1c)

thank's for helping
Eric

Re: Help PLEASE!!!! How do you create struts template file using frame instead of table

[Cedric Dumoulin]

  Hello Anh,

  In the template page, you have to write something like :
---

  "
name="header" >
  "
name="body" >
  "
name="footer" >

--
The scriplet <%=request.getContextPath()%> is not mandatory, but it allows to
put relative URL rather than absolute URL in the insert tag. Thus, your page are
portable on different sites.

  Your insert tag looks like :
--

  
  
  
  

-
  Don't forget direct="true" ! This instruct to output the string as is, rather
than trying to include a jsp page.

Help PLEASE!!!! How do you create struts template file using frame instead of table

[Hoang, Anh]

Hello all,

In the template tag example, the template file used the table and table row
to indicate where in the layout to insert the content. Is there a way to
build the template file using frame instead of table? How do you specify the
src so that it will take  to be the file to
be displayed in the frame? In other world, how do you change the following
code:


<%@ taglib uri="/struts-template.tld" prefix="template" %>

<%-- Layout component
  parameters : title, header, menu, body, footer
--%>
  

  



  

  
  


  
   
  
  

  




To this code:

<%@ taglib uri="/struts-template.tld" prefix="template" %>

<%-- Frameset Layout component
  parameters : title, header, menu, body, footer
--%>

















I tried to put src="" but it didn't work.


Is it possible of using frame with template or table and row are the only
choices? Thank you very much for your help.

RE: Template -struts-template and generated HTML / templating using PUSH model

[Vincent Harcq]

Many Thanks.
It works OK now under Tomcat 3.2.1.
Is there a problem in "flush" under Tomcat 3.2.1; in this case this patch
would be appreciate for final Struts 1.0.
Or is it my Tomcat configuration ?

Harcq,

I just ran into this problem myself with WebSphere.  The GetTag.java - the
source behind the template:get tag that actually does the include calls
pageContext and includes whatever content should go in.  By default, the
servlet engine should flush the buffer (that's what allows an include to go
somewhere within your page). However, apparently some servers don't do that
by default (WS 3.5.3 doesn't seem to).  The solution is an easy one, but
you'll need to recompile Struts.

Under struts/src/share/org/apache/struts/taglib/template you will see a file
called GetTag.java.  Open that file.  In the doStartTag() method you'll find
the following code:

pageContext.include(content.toString());

To fix your problem (hopefully, worked for me) add the following line above
it:

pageContext.getOut().flush();

So your end result will look like:

pageContext.getOut().flush();
pageContext.include(content.toString());

By hardcoding the flush your problems should be solved. Recompiling struts
is documented on the Struts installation web page. :)

HTH,

Chris Assenza

[Vincent Harcq]

Merci.
I will have a look at it.

For my problem, I use . . . heuh, Tomcat 3.2.1 :(
I just tried with Catalina 4.0b1 and . . .  wow, it works fine :)

Does I need a special parameter in server.xml, something else ???

  Hi Vincent,

  Have a look to Components proposal. Components proposal can be seen as
"extended templates". With Components you can define your template's
contents/attributes in a separate file, and insert content by using its
name. A
content, named a component, can also inherit from other definitions.
Components
proposal also contains other features.
  See (main site) http://www.lifl.fr/~dumoulin/components

  I am currently working on the possibility to define or modify the
template/component inside the action or inside the jsp. This will be
available
soon (see a previous mail 'Re: PROPOSAL: Template Screens').
  Furthermore, useful Components features will be progressively introduce in
Struts version 1.1

  For your first question, see intermixed.

  What jsp server do you use ? This happens because your server doesn't
flush
included page.
  You can try to use the components library instead of template one, it is

Ce qui m'interesserait, dans un systeme de templates, ce sont des feuilles de style

  What jsp server do you use ? This happens because your server doesn't flush
included page.
  You can try to use the components library instead of template one, it is fully
compatible.

Template -struts-template and generated HTML / templating using PUSH model

[Vincent Harcq]

Hi,

1. I am beginning to look at Templating mechanism and so use the example
struts-template using version pre-beta-2 (23/03/01).
The result is a strange for me.  Can somebody explain me this.
On the first page, when I look at the generated code (look at the end of
message), I got something where the side-bar.jsp and header.jsp is included
BEFORE the  tag; while from what I see in chapterTemplate.jsp, the
 should appear first.
Is there a problem somewhere ?  Does somebody is aware of that ?  Is it my
browser ?

2. I was also thinking about another mean of doing templating.  The fact
that I have two create each 2 files (introduction.jsp and introduction.html)
is not really needed if you consider you have a little number of different
templates to work with.
Say you have only two templates (side-bar header content footer) (left-bar
header content right-bar footer), it is too much for me to create each time
the page that will use template:put.
I have done that before I used Struts in a "request processor" by setting
the value of a "content" field, forwarding to one of two pages template1.jsp
and template2.jsp that uses jsp include tags.
My plan was to do that in the findForward() method of ActionForwards and
forward all the time to one of the 2 template pages that I have and setting
the "content" value before.
To speak "philosophically", but wishing to not re-open this debate, the PUSH
method is for me more convenient that the "PULL" one for Page Templating
Mechanism.  But I do not want to "mix" Velocity and Struts """"only""" to
solve this templating problem.

Any ideas ?

RE: struts-template tag library vs.

[Troy Hart]

The template custom actions (including "insert", "put", and "get") are
absolutely distinct from the JSP "include" action. I would recommend that
you review the code for the struts-template web application that comes with
struts1.0 beta 1. In a nutshell, the template allows you to define a single
template page that lays out a set of components by referencing the
components by name.

Let's say the following is the contents of a file called
"/somePageLayoutSetup.jsp":
---
<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/tlds/struts-template.tld' prefix='template' %>






---

Now then, here is the template, "/myTemplate.jsp":
---
<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/tlds/struts-template.tld' prefix='template' %>










I can also put any static stuff that I desire directly on this layout
template...

---

This is obviously a simple example but it illustrates the point. Namely, you
have a page that references a layout template and "put"s named components
into a context such that the referenced template can "get" at them.
Obviously, the power here is that for any given page on your site you only
need to know what the components of the layout are, not how they are laid
out. When you want to change the way they are laid out you only need to
change the layout JSP (assuming components don't change). The mechanism that
is used by the  action is (as I understand) functionally
equivalent to, if not exactly the same as, that used by the  (when the named element was "put" with "direct='false'", which is
the default).

Like I said initially, a review of the "struts-template" web app. will clear
this up for you.

Good luck,

Troy

Thank you for your reply, but this didn't really answer my question.  Let me
rephrase.  I am talking about , which is a dynamic templating
mechanism, as opposed to <%@ include %>, which is static.  As I understand
it:

 and  are both dynamic templating
mechanisms
-- they are re-evaluated at runtime whenever referenced.  They allow you to
create a template with placeholders for dynamic values which you will supply
at
runtime.  This is where they are similar.  What I'm interested in hearing is
how they differ.

I assume that struts-template offers some improvement over jsp:include,
otherwise it serves no purpose.  So my question is, what does
struts-template
offer as an improvement over jsp:include?  The answer may be as simple as
"it
provides a consistent and readable syntax", or it may be more substantial.

Thank you,

RE: struts-template tag library vs.

[Troy Hart]

the biggest thing for me is that you limit the potential layout bugs, and
you make it possible to change the layout, site wide, with the editing of a
single file. The alternative (just using ) forces you to
replicate the layout framework (typically this includes a set of nested
tables where you set the header, footer, sidebar, and etc...) on every
single jsp page.

RE: struts-template tag library vs.

[Robert Taylor]

Although it doesn't discuss struts template tag specifically, the J2EE
BluePrint has a good section on the comparison of JSP includes and using
templates. I believe it is in section 10.3 where it discuss the Sample
Application: View.

HTH,

Hi,

What are the differences between using the struts template tag library and
jsp's include action?  What are the advantages and trade-offs of each?

   Certainly because Components do the flush by default.

Hi,
I have the similar result for Tomcat 3.1. But I do not have the problem with
the Cerdric's "Components". Why do they react different?
