 Tiles is pretty cool, but I find Sitemesh actually easier to use (a lot
 less maintenance also once it's set up for an application). I have a
 quick tutorial and simple struts app using it that you can download.

Yes. It works a trat for me. Your RDBMS will need to be able to support

Re: AW: Design patterns used in Struts

2004-08-31 Thread Janne Mattila
Well, original poster asked the question for some reason. Who knows, maybe 
he has to give a presentation of Struts? I wouldn't like to embarrass myself 
by speaking of patterns that do not exist. Have a look at some random books 
on the subject, I'll bet they all talk about Model 1, Model 2, and MVC and 
none about MVC1 and MVC2. As does art of web development, by the way, at 
least according to the table of contents (I have not actually read that 
book). I think the reviewer was just confused. I am not sure whether MVC2 
has been said to be the XML extension of MVC1, can you please provide some 
links (or did you just pull that one out of your hat :) ?

The whole point of patterns is to create a common language for describing 
universal solutions. If you start to speak of MVC1 and MVC2 patterns, 
majority of people will not understand what you are talking about. That is 
why I care about precise nomenclature in this matter, and you should too...

Questions on logging

2004-08-31 Thread Sebastian Ho
Hi

I am in the stage of implementing logging in my struts application. I
have been reading online but have some questions unanswered.

1. Action class should be thread-safe. Therefore no static variable, I
should just use a non-static variable to hold my logger?

2. In a multi-user web application, how can I keep logs from the same
class (same execution thread or same user request) stays together? I
envision them to be all messy in the log file when there's multiple user
requesting for the same action class.

3. About the thread safe issue with Actin class, that doesn't apply to
the other classes that action execute right? Those are treated as normal
java files.

Thanks

Re: Questions on logging

2004-08-31 Thread Nicolas De Loof


1. thread-safe require no variable (instance or static) that a thread may consider to
be the only one to update. Read-only member (as a logger instance) can be used safely.

2. you can configure log4j to add the thread id to the log, so that a simple grep will 
extract all logs for a request.

3. other classes can be used as you designed them. If they're creating a new instance 
for each request you will have no
thread-safe requirement to reach. If you use any singleton or static method you may 
have to take threads into account.

Nico.

Re: tile: including one layout .jsp inside another?

2004-08-31 Thread brenmcguire
Mmm... I think there is some misunderstanding in your use of Tiles.
If I understood, maybe you want to have an effect of panel and
subpanels. If you want to do such a thing, you can use what I call as
definitions of definitions.
If I understood (again :-P ) you want to have a main page, divided into
three pieces (left, top and body) and the body is changin depending on
your needs.
1) Prepare the base definition:

  definition name=main path=/WEB-INF/jsp/layouts/main.jsp
put name=top value=/WEB-INF/jsp/common/top.jsp /
put name=leftNav value=/WEB-INF/jsp/common/leftNav.jsp /
  /definition

2) Prepare the body layout. Suppose that you want to put only two
attributes, one for your tabs and one for the list.

bodyLayout.jsp:

  tiles:insert attribute=first /
  tiles:insert attribute=second /


3) Prepare the body definition:

  definition name=myBody path=/WEB-INF/jsp/layouts/bodyLayout.jsp
put name=first value=/WEB-INF/jsp/common/first.jsp /
put name=second value=/WEB-INF/jsp/common/second.jsp /
  /definition

4) Make a definition of definition:

  definition name=main.usable extends=main
put name=top value=myBody /
  /definition

This is all you need (again, if I undestood :-P ). Anyway I wish to put a
note aboud the extends attribute.
The attribute extends is used to put all the missing attributes that you
left in a definition. For example, take this layout:

  /layout/layout.jsp:

  html:html
body
  tiles:insert attribute=one /
  tiles:insert attribute=two /
  tiles:insert attribute=three /
/body
  /html:html

And take these definitions:

  definition name=defOne path=/layouts/layout.jsp
put name=one value=/tiles/one.jsp /
put name=two value=/tiles/two.jsp /
  /definition

  definition name=defTwo extends=defOne
put name=three value=/tiles/three.jsp /
  /definition

The defOne definition is unusable, because it misses the three
attribute, but it can be used to be a base for defTwo definition.

bill curtis wrote:

hello!!

I have been looking high and low for an answer to this problem.

I am trying to define a layout, one component of which is another layout:


  definition name=main path=/WEB-INF/jsp/layouts/main.jsp
put name=top value=/WEB-INF/jsp/common/top.jsp /
put name=leftNav value=/WEB-INF/jsp/common/leftNav.jsp /

body
  tiles:insert attribute=top /
  tiles:insert attribute=leftNav /
  tiles:insert attribute=body /
/body
  /html:html


  tabs.jsp:

  tiles:insert attribute=view /


When I forward to list, main loads, it's children, including tabs,
but when tabs tries to load list as a child, I get this error:

  [ServletException in:/WEB-INF/jsp/foo/tabs.jsp]
  Error - Tag Insert : No value found for attribute 'view'.'


I have tried numerous variants of my tiles defs and tiles tags, but I
can't get it to work.

Is there a way to do this?  If not, are there any recommended
workarounds that can be used to acheive the same effect?  Ideally,
tabs.jsp would not have it's component hard coded, I would like to be
able to select on the basis of the original forwards (which will come
from different action mappings and use different forms).

html:errors for indexed properties

2004-08-31 Thread Milind Rao
I have googled and searched the mailing list, but couldn't find an
answer to this.

I have a DynaValidatorForm containing a collection of objects
presented using the logic:iterate tag in the JSP.  The validation of
the objects in the collection is done in the validation.xml file using
something like

field property=closeHour
   indexedListProperty= regularTimingList
   depends=integer, intRange
arg0 key=error.workingHours.invalidHour /
arg1 name=intRange key=${var:min}
resource=false/
arg2 name=intRange key=${var:max}
resource=false/
   
varvar-namemin/var-namevar-value0/var-value/var
   
varvar-namemax/var-namevar-value24/var-value/var
 /field

This creates an Action error for the property
regularTiming[i].closeHour.  'i' being the index  of the collection
that fails validation.

What do I use for the property element of the html:errors tag?  I
hardcoded a property of regularTimingList[1].closeHour to see if 
the error shows up on the page if the close hour of the 2nd item in
the collection  is invalid.  It does.  But obviously, I don't want to
do this for every record in the collection.  What I need is an
equivalent of logic:iterate tag for errors.   Any pointers to doing
this would be appreciated.

Hello folks,

I just want to know the list of patterns that we are
using while implementing struts with tiles framework. 
I have just started working with the struts framework
hence correct me if I am going wrong somewhere..

1. Front Controller - With ActionServlet and
struts-config.xml
2. Command Pattern - With Action classes
3. Composite View - Using the tiles framework

RE: SecurityFilter Question?

2004-08-31 Thread Robert Taylor
I haven't been following this thread too closely but 
I know its been some what long so if this solution has
already been proposed, I apologize in advance.

We use SecurityFilter and an additional filter which
checks for the Principal in the request. If the Principal exists,
then we can be assured that the user has successfully logged in; at 
which point we check to see if the required information is in the
session. If not, then we persist the required information into the session.
If so, then we do nothing. In either case we allow the filter chain to proceed. 
It has worked quite nicely so far.


Principal principal = req.getUserPrincipal();

if (principal != null) {

  
   if (req.getSession().getAttribute(requiredInformation) == null) {

   // do other login stuff here

   }

}

chain.doFilter(req, res);

hth,

robert

  Can't u do this using an Action? Say, accessing /admin/LogAction.do
  invokes SecurityFilter, after authentication by SecurityFilter is passed,
  go directly to LogAction as below
  
  
 
  The problem comes if the user bookmarks a url like /user/abc.do, starts
  up their browser and goes directly to the protected URL.  The security
  filter will take them to the login form, they submit username/password
  and seucirty filter authenticates them.  Once they are authenticated
  they are redirected back to /users/abc.do - they don't pass through
  LogAction at all.  So I normally have a filter that makes sure the bean
  is in session from where ever they are called.
 
 
 
  You don't have to use a filter though, you could make a base action that
  does puts the bean into session and have all your actions sub-class that
  one.
 
 Using action to put bean in Session after SecurityFilter, how is that
 possible when after authentication by SecurityFilter, u taken right
 back to /user/abc.do where u 1st request it and doesn't pass
 through to action attribute as specified in action-mapping of
 struts-config.xml?
 
 I have tried to use action, after authentication, I am indeed taken
 back to the page /admin/logon.do or /user/logon.do and got
 error message in browser:
 
 HTTP Status 400 - Invalid path /admin/Logon was requested
 
 message Invalid path /admin/Logon was requested
 
 description The request sent by the client was syntactically incorrect
 (Invalid path /admin/Logon was requested).

 My action mapping is struts-conf.xml
 
 Both
 
  action
  path=/admin/Logon.do
  type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction
   parameter=LogAction.do?action=logon/
 
 action
 path=/user/Logon.do
 type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction
   parameter=LogAction.do?action=logon/
 
 !-- 
 My LogAction extends DispatchAction and will try
 to put User bean in session. --
 
 or
 
 action

 parameter=Welcome.do/
 action
 path=/user/Logon.do
 type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction

 won't work.

 BTW, how wud u use html:form to display
 login fields?
 
 I can't get struts tag to work with login fields
 except for using things like:
 
 form action=j_security_check method=POST
  Username: input type=text name=j_usernamep
  Password: input type=password name=j_passwordp
  input type=Submit
 
 /form

 Ok, using filter (as u said) after SecurityFilter wud solve this simply but
 I like to stick with pure Struts approach if possible.

These files are need if you wish to use JSP EL in a JSP 1.2 container. If

Re: html:errors for indexed properties

2004-08-31 Thread Bill Siggelkow
You have to use the html:messages tag in a loop to generate the property 
values in a loop.
Here's an example --

 logic:iterate name=IndexedListForm property=orders
  id=orders indexId=ndx
tr
td
html:text name=orders property=partNumber 
indexed=true/br /nbsp;
html:messages id=error 
property='%=orders[+ndx+].partNumber%'
 		  		  font color=redbean:write name=error//font
/html:messages
/td
td
html:text name=orders property=quantity 
indexed=true/br /nbsp;
html:messages id=error 
property='%=orders[+ndx+].quantity%'
 		  		  font color=redbean:write name=error//font
/html:messages
/td
/tr
/logic:iterate

Enjoy!

I have googled and searched the mailing list, but couldn't find an
answer to this.
I have a DynaValidatorForm containing a collection of objects
presented using the logic:iterate tag in the JSP.  The validation of
the objects in the collection is done in the validation.xml file using
something like
field property=closeHour
   indexedListProperty= regularTimingList
   depends=integer, intRange
arg0 key=error.workingHours.invalidHour /
arg1 name=intRange key=${var:min}
resource=false/
arg2 name=intRange key=${var:max}
resource=false/
   
varvar-namemin/var-namevar-value0/var-value/var
   
varvar-namemax/var-namevar-value24/var-value/var
 /field

This creates an Action error for the property
regularTiming[i].closeHour.  'i' being the index  of the collection
that fails validation.
What do I use for the property element of the html:errors tag?  I
hardcoded a property of regularTimingList[1].closeHour to see if 
the error shows up on the page if the close hour of the 2nd item in
the collection  is invalid.  It does.  But obviously, I don't want to
do this for every record in the collection.  What I need is an
equivalent of logic:iterate tag for errors.   Any pointers to doing
this would be appreciated.

Try declaring eatable in your form-bean declaration as

myForm.set(eatable, new Boolean(true))

Submit to 3rd party URL after completing Action

2004-08-31 Thread Richard Aukland
Hi,

I have a form which must be sent to an external site for payment
processing. But first I want to run it through my own action to
insert the values in the database, and then forward to the 3rd party
URL for payment.

If I submit to the 3rd party directly from a JSP using an html form
(ass opposed to struts html:form) then they recieve the data on my
form no problem. But when I use struts and go through my action then
all data is lost.

Here is my mapping bit;
action input=.base.signup.step3 parameter=action
name=signupForm path=/SubmitSignup3
   type=uk.co.membershiponline.website.actions.SignupAction 
validate=true
   forward name=next
path=https://select.worldpay.com/wcc/purchase; redirect=true/
   forward name=failure1 path=.base.signup.step1
redirect=false/
   forward name=failure2 path=.base.signup.step2
redirect=false/
   forward name=cancel path=.base redirect=false/
   forward name=previous path=.base.signup.step2
redirect=false/
  /action 

It is the 'next' forward that goes to the 3rd party. I have tried
setting redirect tru/false. Same problem. The form is in session
scope.

I think I am not understanding something about how this works. 

Any pointers gratefully received, 
Richard

Re: Learning the basics

Hi Kenneth, Everyone.

Since we're on the subject, using the example being discussed, towards
the end of the chain we call findRecords.do which takes us to
foundRecords.jsp.

All well and good.

I'm having trouble understanding how to get database output from the
model to the view layer?

How is that data passed around, more to the point?

Or if someone could point me in the direction of some documentation on
the subject i would be more than happy to study it. I've found plenty
of Struts information, but quite little on database programming with
Struts.




Thanks,

  Subject: RE: Learning the basics
 
 
  Hi Jim,
 
  I was hoping to
   avoid having to
   read a book to write my first Struts app, which is basically
   a small web
   app to let a user search a database table according to one of
   three sets
   of search criteria.  I thought this would be relatively simple.  My
   impression so far, however, is that Struts is way way way way more
   complicated than I thought for this simple app.  Perhaps I
  should just
   write it without Struts and get a book to red and try Struts
   next time.
 
  It is relatevily simple.
  showSearchCriteria.do  forwards to searchCriteria.jsp  (The
  class could
  be the ForwardAction)
  searchCriteria.jsp has the fields for searching in.
  action goes to findRecords.do, which queries the database and forwards
  the results to foundRecorrds.jsp
 
  Ken asks:  My impression is that a something.do means a web
  page, like a
  JSP is involved.  I don't understand this part about a jsp
  linking to an
  action that goes to findRecords.do.  What does that represent?  From
  what I understand to this moment, it represents a page, when
  it needs to
  work with a backend component to search the database.  This
  may be part
  of the piece I'm missing.
 
 Part may be that you also need to understand how the web works... such subtle things 
 as the stateless nature of the http protocol, it's tendency to not pass fields that 
 are empty that kind of thing.
 Then on top of that... the servlet specification... then on top of that the JSP 
 specification, and then tieing all that together neatly, is struts. :)
 
 Let's see if I can simplify this a bit...
 
 Tomcat/Websphere/Weblogic (the container) receives this URL 
 http://foo.com/fooApp/showIndex.do
 Container looks at it, and says... okay this goes to the fooApp web app... then says 
 *.do.. goes to the struts servlet in fooApp.
 The struts servlet goes.. h... showIndex strtus-config says that maps to 
 ShowIndexAction class...
 I better call it's exectue method.. and it returns the 
 sucess/index/whateverYouWantToCallItForward.. struts-config says that maps to 
 index.jsp better serve that up.
 And now the request processing is done, the requestor has the resource they asked 
 for.
 
 
 
 
  So, 2 jsp pages, 2 actions (If you dont use ForwardAction).
 
  If your search criteria are really three different searches, then you
  can put all three forms on one page, and use DispatchAction for the
  findRecords.do action class.
 
   I thought EJBs were complex when I first learned them, but they have
   NOTHING on Struts.  Thanks again.
 
  How do you figure?
 
   Because, at least for me (and I grant that I'm much more
  at home in
  the business tier than the web tier), the workflow for an EJB
  (find it,
  create it, call it, remove it) is somewhat straightforward.
  I have yet
  to get the exact mechanics of how Struts works.I've seen
  a couple of
  diagrams but I need something more detailed that shows the exact flow
  through each little step.  Do I need a Form?  A FormBean?  A regular
  bean?  When?  Where?  I can't figure out how to answer these
  questions.
 
  Note:  this is NOT an attack on Struts.  I haven't spent several days
  reading about it in order to be difficult in a mailing list.
  Struts may
  be a great framework once one figures it out.
 
 I would suggest that you spend more time looking at the online struts documentation. 
  It's how most of us learned.  If you've done mostly business tier, then it would 
 also be a good idea to study how the Servlet/JSP specs work, and how the HTTP 
 protocol works.  Without Servlet/JSP fundamentals and some knowledge of HTTP, you 
 will probably be very lost for quite some time.
 
 Yes, you have to learn 3 technologies just to learn struts if you have never ever 
 done any web programming at all.   This isn't struts fault...  just the way the web 
 is.  Servlets/JSP abstracts some of the HTTP protocol, Struts abstracts that.

If I understand correctly, all you have to do in findRecords.do is put 
the records in some scope (i.e. request.setParameter(records, records) 
and then pick  them from there in your foundRecords.jsp

Re: Submit to 3rd party URL after completing Action

You are only going to be able to redirect to an external URL. However, 
when you redirect its a new request so the form data is lost. I would 
use the Jakarta Commons HttpClient to do the posting.

NoClassDefFoundError - this means the JVM cannot find the class in

You need to make this class available to the JVM by adding the

RE: Submit to 3rd party URL after completing Action

2004-08-31 Thread Partha Ranjan Das
If you use redirect to the payment url, the data in the form is in the
session in your site and not the external site where it is needed. So
redirect or forward will not help.

Try splitting up this work-flow into two steps:
1.  in the first one you write the action class and save the stuff into
database and then forward to a page where a hidden form is recreated using
the same values as the first one,
2.  in the body onload of this page, submit the form to the external
url.

Hope this helps.

Partha

Subject:  Submit to 3rd party URL after completing Action

Hi,

I have a form which must be sent to an external site for payment
processing. But first I want to run it through my own action to
insert the values in the database, and then forward to the 3rd party
URL for payment.

If I submit to the 3rd party directly from a JSP using an html form
(ass opposed to struts html:form) then they recieve the data on my
form no problem. But when I use struts and go through my action then
all data is lost.

Here is my mapping bit;
action input=.base.signup.step3 parameter=action
name=signupForm path=/SubmitSignup3
   type=uk.co.membershiponline.website.actions.SignupAction 
validate=true
   forward name=next
path=https://select.worldpay.com/wcc/purchase; redirect=true/
   forward name=failure1 path=.base.signup.step1
redirect=false/
   forward name=failure2 path=.base.signup.step2
redirect=false/
   forward name=cancel path=.base redirect=false/
   forward name=previous path=.base.signup.step2
redirect=false/
  /action 

It is the 'next' forward that goes to the 3rd party. I have tried
setting redirect tru/false. Same problem. The form is in session
scope.

I think I am not understanding something about how this works. 

Any pointers gratefully received, 
Richard

Used html:errors instead of the message for brevity.  It would have
been nice if html:errors could have been set with indexed=true. 
Would have prevented the scriplet and been more consistent.

You have to use the html:messages tag in a loop to generate the property 
values in a loop.
Here's an example --

 logic:iterate name=IndexedListForm property=orders
  id=orders indexId=ndx
tr
td
html:text name=orders property=partNumber 
indexed=true/br /nbsp;
html:messages id=error 
property='%=orders[+ndx+].partNumber%'

/html:messages
/td
td
html:text name=orders property=quantity 
indexed=true/br /nbsp;
html:messages id=error 
property='%=orders[+ndx+].quantity%'
 		  		  font color=redbean:write name=error//font
/html:messages
/td
/tr
/logic:iterate

Enjoy!

Milind Rao wrote:
I have googled and searched the mailing list, but couldn't find an
answer to this.
I have a DynaValidatorForm containing a collection of objects
presented using the logic:iterate tag in the JSP.  The validation of
the objects in the collection is done in the validation.xml file using
something like
field property=closeHour
   indexedListProperty= regularTimingList
   depends=integer, intRange
arg0 key=error.workingHours.invalidHour /
arg1 name=intRange key=${var:min}
resource=false/
arg2 name=intRange key=${var:max}
resource=false/
   
varvar-namemin/var-namevar-value0/var-value/var
   
varvar-namemax/var-namevar-value24/var-value/var
 /field

This creates an Action error for the property
regularTiming[i].closeHour.  'i' being the index  of the collection
that fails validation.
What do I use for the property element of the html:errors tag?  I
hardcoded a property of regularTimingList[1].closeHour to see if the 
error shows up on the page if the close hour of the 2nd item in
the collection  is invalid.  It does.  But obviously, I don't want to
do this for every record in the collection.  What I need is an
equivalent of logic:iterate tag for errors.   Any pointers to doing
this would be appreciated.

Chris,

In our app we're building a model object Assignment from a dao object
AssignmentDAO.  We then fill the form AssignmentForm from the model object.
All this is controlled from the AssignmentAction.

I think I've recently read that in general a lower layer should not be
aware of a higher layer.  If true the form should fill itself from the
model object not the model object fill the form.  This is the direction I'm
going.  (We break this rule in that the DAO returns a model object).
Would appreciate opinions of the more experienced as far as how closely
this follows best practices.

 Hi Jim,
 
 I was hoping to
 
 avoid having to
 read a book to write my first Struts app, which is basically
 a small web
 app to let a user search a database table according to one of
 three sets
 of search criteria.  I thought this would be relatively simple.  My
 impression so far, however, is that Struts is way way way way more
 complicated than I thought for this simple app.  Perhaps I
 
 should just
 
 write it without Struts and get a book to red and try Struts
 next time.
 
 It is relatevily simple.
 showSearchCriteria.do  forwards to searchCriteria.jsp  (The
 class could
 be the ForwardAction)
 searchCriteria.jsp has the fields for searching in.
 action goes to findRecords.do, which queries the database and forwards
 the results to foundRecorrds.jsp
 
 Ken asks:  My impression is that a something.do means a web
 page, like a
 JSP is involved.  I don't understand this part about a jsp
 linking to an
 action that goes to findRecords.do.  What does that represent?  From
 what I understand to this moment, it represents a page, when
 it needs to
 work with a backend component to search the database.  This
 may be part
 of the piece I'm missing.
 
 Part may be that you also need to understand how the web
 works... such subtle things as the stateless nature of the http
 protocol, it's tendency to not pass fields that are empty that
 kind of thing.
 Then on top of that... the servlet specification... then on top
 of that the JSP specification, and then tieing all that together
 neatly, is struts. :)

RE: Learning the basics

2004-08-31 Thread Daniel Perry
It's generally best practice not to tie layers in together.

Assume that you have your DAOs that are aware of ActionForm (or subclasses),
in constructors, or methods.  Now say you want to use the same DAOs in a
standalone app.  In order to do that, you are going to have to include the
struts jar, as the code relies on it!

It also applies the other way round.

Assume that your struts actions know all about the underlying persistence
mechanism.  Now assume that you want to change it from direct jdbc database
access, to an object-relational mapping like apache OJB.  Not only will you
have to change the DAO code, but also all the actions!

In general Data Transfer Objects (DTO) are used to get round these problems.
These are simple javabeans.

Despite this, i often 'cheat' and combine a DTO/DAO/BO/VO all together.
Using OJB I make a base DAO (with common methods: insert, delete,
soft-delete, find), and then extend this to make the other model objects,
that are persisted by OJB.  As they are already javabeans i use them as DTOs
directly.  I have found that this doesnt create a dependance on OJB, etc, as
it is only really the base DAO that relies on it. (as well as some service
classes)

In general, i think you have to weigh up the benefits of sticking to a 'best
practice' design, vs the benefits (time, simplicity, etc) of not.  Sharing
only a set of dedicated transfer objects between layers certainly makes
things easier in a large team.  But i have found the model i describe with
combined DTO/DAO to be equally as effective.

Daniel.

2004-08-31 Thread Christoph Kutzinski
I'm currently trying to do something similar. Therefore I would like to 
share my thoughts:

Relying on javascript for business critical functions (and if payment is 
not a business critical function, what is?) is IMO NEVER a good idea, 
because it is not fail-proof at all.
What only if the user has switched of javascript in his browser?

IMO this kind of functionality should always be handled server-side!

If you use redirect to the payment url, the data in the form is in the
session in your site and not the external site where it is needed. So
redirect or forward will not help.
Try splitting up this work-flow into two steps:
1.  in the first one you write the action class and save the stuff into
database and then forward to a page where a hidden form is recreated
using
the same values as the first one,
2.  in the body onload of this page, submit the form to the external
url.
Hope this helps.

Partha

Hello folks,
I just want to know the list of patterns that we are

I have just started working with the struts framework
hence correct me if I am going wrong somewhere..

1. Front Controller - With ActionServlet and
struts-config.xml
2. Command Pattern - With Action classes
3. Composite View - Using the tiles framework

Whenever i come accross this, i put a 'confirmation' screen, with all the

the external site.

Re: including one layout .jsp inside another?

2004-08-31 Thread Bill Schneider
I raised exactly the same question on this list a week or two ago.  I'm 
glad to see someone else attempting the same thing.

Two workarounds came out of that discussion--structure your tiles defs 
differently, or futz with tiles:importAttribute and tiles:put.  The 
first approach doesn't scale well, because for every page that includes 
tabs, you need two tiles defs instead of one.  (It gets worse if you 
have subtabs.)  The second approach works but is a kludge, not a clean 
solution.

Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a good way to handle this 
case with Tiles.

Struts-faces form input with rendered attribute set

2004-08-31 Thread Xav DECO
Craig, All,
I would like to discuss the issue I have entered in Bugzilla (issue #30511) 
with title “Struts-faces form input with rendered attribute set” that you 
put invalid a while ago.

I am first going to rewrite the issue and I will try to explain where I do 
not find things logical.

First of all, I use the struts-faces library, so I have Struts forms and JSF 
pages (I also use tiles).

So I have 1 Struts forms, called serverForm with 2 attributes:
   form-bean  name=serverForm
   type=org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm 
 form-property name=dns  type=java.lang.String /
 form-property name=mtc  type=java.lang.String /
   /form-bean
I also have 2 actions: one called before displaying the JSF page, and 
another one called at submission time.
These 2 actions are associated with the same form serverForm marked as 
request scope for both.
The first action populates the form attributes so as to prefill the inputs, 
it also sets the mtc attribute to ‘edit’.
The second action is used to save the data into an XML data file.

The JSF page looks like this:
s:form action=/saveServer onsubmit=return validateServerForm(this);
h:inputHidden id=mtc value=#{serverForm.mtc} /
...
h:inputText id=dns value=#{serverForm.dns} rendered=#{serverForm.mtc 
== 'edit'}/
...
/s:form

At rendering time the page is correctly displayed and the dns input displays 
if mtc is equals to ‘edit’, if the dns field has a value its value displays 
in the field.

Then if I submit the form, in my Struts action class, I can get the mtc 
value using:

DynaValidatorForm serverForm = (DynaValidatorForm) form ;
String mtc = (String)serverForm.get( mtc ) ;
The mtc attribute is equals to ‘edit’.
But when I try to do:
String dns = (String)serverForm.get( dns ) ;
I cannot obtain the dns value that was submitted even if mtc is equals to 
‘edit’.

To sum up the value of the attribute serverForm.mtc is available at 
rendering time and at submitting time but seems not present while evaluating 
the rendered JSF attribute during the form submit phase.

Then if I put the scope of both actions used as Session scope, it works 
correctly, I can get the dns submitted value.

Without knowing in details the way a request is handled behind the scene 
especially between JSF and Struts, I think there is something wrong here but 
I am not 100% sure. In fact I am pretty sure that I should not be obliged to 
set these actions in session scope.

If you need more information, please let me know.
Thanks a lot for your help

 Hi,
 
 I have tried most of the code in the replies and, alas, fear 
 my brain is too 
 small to get any working.
 I am persevering with Rick Reumann's method (because I liked 
 the Struttin' 
 with Struts stuff!) but I don't get a session parameter in my 
 next page 
 after the link is followed (I have changed the scope to 
 session).  To get 
 the ID would be something, but it would save me needing an 
 action class at 
 all if I could get the contact object representing the 
 'clicked' row into 
 the session or request scope.
 A cut down version of the code is:
 
 form name=form0 method=post
 TABLE border=0
   %
   ArrayList list = (ArrayList)session.getAttribute(Contacts);
   Iterator it = list.iterator();
   int id = 0;
   while(it.hasNext()) {
  Contact tempContact = (Contact)it.next();
}%
  TR
 TD%=tempContact.getName()%/TD
 TD%=tempContact.getNumber()%/TD
 
 TDc:url var=url scope=session 
 value=/do/modifyContact
 c:param name=ID 
 value=${form0.tempContact.id}//c:url
 a href=c:out value='${url}'/Modify/a
 
 Note that I am not using any Struts Forms for this Action as 
 I receive the 
 ArrayList from the session.  I added an html form tag as 
 above because you 
 had one in the example code.

What session attribute are you thinking should be there when you click on Modify?
What you'll end up with is a url with params, the params of which won't be in session 
scope at all.

RE: Identifying the 'clicked' line when iterating over collection

2004-08-31 Thread Daniel Perry
I would do somthing like the following:


TABLE border=0
c:forEach items=${contacts} var=contact
 TR
TD${contact.name}/TD
TD${contact.number}/TD

TDc:url var=url scope=session value=/do/modifyContact
c:param name=ID value=${contact.id}//c:url
a href=c:out value='${url}'/Modify/a
/c:forEach

The action modifyContact should load the contact with the specified id, ID
is available by
String ID = request.getParameter(ID);
The action then stores the contact in the request scope:
request.setAttribute(contact,contact);

then forward to the jsp:

name:${contact.name} etc...

Hope that helps,

Daniel.

Worked well.  Thanks.

Used html:errors instead of the message for brevity.  It would have
been nice if html:errors could have been set with indexed=true.
Would have prevented the scriplet and been more consistent.

Iterating over collection ...

2004-08-31 Thread eid4k
Hello there

I am having some issue getting the correctly output while iterating over my collection

I'm doing the following:

I'm iterating over an processList(ArrayList) which contains 4 objects of type 
ProcessBO.
ProcessBO has 3 attributes;

int ID 
String name
ArrayList tasklist


The tasklist holds objects of type TaskBO
TaskBO has several attributes of type String

In my jsp I am iterating over the processList like this:

logic:iterate id=process name=processlist 
    bean:write name=process property=name/
    bean:write name=process property=ID/br
    
    bean:write name=process property=tasklist/br
/logic:iterate

which prints the name, ID as I want it to but for the property tasklist it prints the 
class name for each object
in the tasklist.

I would like to access the attributes of the objects inside the tasklist and print 
them similar to the other output
with bean:write

I have looked searched for an answer in the documentation where it says I could use 
something like tasklist.name for the property value but his did not work.

Help would be very much appreciated

Thanks

Karim

Classloading problem

2004-08-31 Thread Ivan Vasquez
We have Tomcat 5.0.16 and were incorrectly placing common jars (such as
JDBC drivers) in /common/lib. 

Now we just moved them to /shared/lib (for truly common stuff) and
WEB-INF/lib, but now all applications complain giving a
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException, just like if things weren't in
Tomcat's classpath anymore. Apps and Tomcat restarts have been done
several times.

Is there anything in web.xml, server.xml, etc that needs to be set? What
are we possibly missing? Tomcat docs are pretty straightforward about it
and everything seems right.

Once again, thanks in advance.

You need to nest another iterate'er in order to iterate through the inner
list for each object:

logic:iterate id=process name=processlist 
    bean:write name=process property=name/
    bean:write name=process property=ID/br
    logic:iterate id=task name=process property=tasklist
    bean:write name=task property=name/br
/logic:iterate

To do what you want above would take a slightly different approach. Say 
you had your ArrayList of Contacts in Session scope and after the user 
clicked on a link you wanted to edit one of those objects. In this case 
you wouldn't use the ID to look him up you'd have to use the index of 
where you were in the Collection so that when you submit to the Action 
you can then pull the user out like so...

//on JSP in a loop of you contacts
c:forEach items=${contacts} var=contact varStatus=status
c:url var=url value=/do/modifyContact
 c:param name=indexPos value=${status.index}/
/c:url
a href=c:out value='${url}'/Modify/a
//in Action...
//from parameter on the JSP
indexPos = new Integer(request.getParamater(indexPos).intVal();
//grab your existing ArrayList
ArrayList contacts = 
(ArrayList)request.getSession().getAttribute(contacts);

//now pull out the one you want and probably set it in request scope
//for the next update page to use
Contact contact = (Contact)contacts.get( indexPos );
request.setAttribute( contact, contact );
//forward to update JSP page
The above being said, that 'usually' isn't the approach you want to take 
(although it's not always bad). The reason is A) you are required to 
stuff possibly a large Collection into Session scope and B) Each object 
in the Collection needs to be fully populated, which could be expensive 
if each item had large objects nested inside, etc. The more typical 
approach we were describing would involve a call to populate the Contact 
 based on a unique indentifier such as an 'id'

Imagine a case where you just wanted the user to choose a contact to 
update.. you'd probably just be displaying their name and maybe a couple 
other attributes (but probably not all the other contact information - 
alternate phone numbers etc). So really all you need for this first list 
is a simple Collection put in request scope of Contact beans with just a 
few things populated. Then the user clicks on the row and you can then 
fully populate the Contact. (This also has the added benefit of helping 
you have a better chance of getting a fresh unmodified Contact). Using 
the first approach, what if the user was looking at the list for a while 
and went to the bathroom and came back 15 minutes later and went to 
update the contact. You would end up giving him a Contact from teh 
Collection that could have been modified (or even deleted) by another 
user. On the other hand, if you get a fresh population of the Contact 
you can alert the User the Contact was deleted or he'd at least see more 
recently modified changes.

And in the below you woldn't need the form tag (like you mention). 
However you would need to be getting the list from somewhere so this 
part is probably wrong: value=${form0.tempContact.id}/

Hope that helps.
A cut down version of the code is:
form name=form0 method=post
TABLE border=0
 %
 ArrayList list = (ArrayList)session.getAttribute(Contacts);
 Iterator it = list.iterator();
 int id = 0;
 while(it.hasNext()) {
Contact tempContact = (Contact)it.next();
  }%
TR
   TD%=tempContact.getName()%/TD
   TD%=tempContact.getNumber()%/TD
   TDc:url var=url scope=session value=/do/modifyContact
   c:param name=ID value=${form0.tempContact.id}//c:url
   a href=c:out value='${url}'/Modify/a
Note that I am not using any Struts Forms for this Action as I receive 
the ArrayList from the session.  I added an html form tag as above 
because you had one in the example code.

Thanks Daniel,

this worked.

I have tried nesting a iterate tag earlier today but I wasn't setting it correct. 
Thanks for the answer.

 Subject: Iterating over collection ...


 Hello there

 I am having some issue getting the correctly output while
 iterating over my collection

 I'm doing the following:

 I'm iterating over an processList(ArrayList) which contains 4
 objects of type ProcessBO.
 ProcessBO has 3 attributes;

 int ID
 String name
 ArrayList tasklist


 The tasklist holds objects of type TaskBO
 TaskBO has several attributes of type String

 In my jsp I am iterating over the processList like this:

 logic:iterate id=process name=processlist 
     bean:write name=process property=name/
     bean:write name=process property=ID/br
     
     bean:write name=process property=tasklist/br
 /logic:iterate

 which prints the name, ID as I want it to but for the property
 tasklist it prints the class name for each object
 in the tasklist.

 I would like to access the attributes of the objects inside the
 tasklist and print them similar to the other output
 with bean:write

 I have looked searched for an answer in the documentation where
 it says I could use something like tasklist.name for the
 property value but his did not work.

 Help would be very much appreciated

 Thanks

 Karim

RE: Classloading problem

2004-08-31 Thread Ivan Vasquez
Sure, in common/lib it works well. But from Tomcat docs:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html

The following rules cover about 95% of the decisions that application
developers and deployers must make about where to place class and
resource files to make them available to web applications:

* For classes and resources specific to a particular web
application, place unpacked classes and resources under /WEB-INF/classes
of your web application archive, or place JAR files containing those
classes and resources under /WEB-INF/lib of your web application
archive.
* For classes and resources that must be shared across all web
applications, place unpacked classes and resources under
$CATALINA_BASE/shared/classes, or place JAR files containing those
classes and resources under $CATALINA_BASE/shared/lib.

--Then goes on...---

Common - This class loader contains additional classes that are made
visible to both Tomcat internal classes and to all web applications.
Normally, application classes should NOT  be placed here. All unpacked
classes and resources in $CATALINA_HOME/common/classes, as well as
classes and resources in JAR files under the
$CATALINA_HOME/commons/endorsed and $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib
directories, are made visible through this class loader.

Shared - This class loader is the place to put classes and resources
that you wish to share across ALL  web applications (unless Tomcat
internal classes also need access, in which case you should put them in
the Common  class loader instead). All unpacked classes and resources in
$CATALINA_BASE/shared/classes, as well as classes and resources in JAR
files under $CATALINA_BASE/shared/lib, are made visible through this
class loader.



In our case we want to share jars common to all applications, but none
of them are required by Tomcat.

Now we just moved them to /shared/lib (for truly common stuff) and
WEB-INF/lib, but now all applications complain giving a
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException, just like if things weren't in
Tomcat's classpath anymore. Apps and Tomcat restarts have been done
several times.

Is there anything in web.xml, server.xml, etc that needs to be set?
What
are we possibly missing? Tomcat docs are pretty straightforward about
it
and everything seems right.

Once again, thanks in advance.

To do what you want above would take a slightly different approach. Say

Initial invocation (HTTP GET) Instantiates an Action, but does no t invoke execute(...)

2004-08-31 Thread Sheehan, Andrew
Good Afternoon,

 

 

An instance of a my Action class only has its' constructor firing when the
ActionServlet first loads it, when the execute(...) function should be
invoked at some point afterward.  I do not have any need for a ActionForm
with this specific request; only that the request must pull information out
of the database, which would occur if the execute(..) function happened.  

 

My struts-config file is very small; this is the beginning of my integration
work with a application that does not use Struts (soon to change if I make
some progress :-) )  

 

Here is my struts-config.xml:

 

?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1 ?

 

!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC

  -//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.1//EN

  http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/struts-config_1_1.dtd;

 

struts-config

  action-mappings  

action path=/planning
type=smartt.planning.benefit.action.ViewBenefit scope=request /action

  /action-mappings

/struts-config

 

Again, I have not declared any  ActionForm's, since this particular request
is pulling data out of the database, and there are no form elements being
sent over.  

My web.xml has the standard mappings for ActionServlet, and any URI with
/*.do map to it.  What does happen is the browser returns with a blank page.

I did read up on possible causes (misspellings, missing declarations and/or
attributes and that sort, but didn't find any related solution in the forums
or via searches in Google.

 

I appreciate it.

 

-Andy

Re: 1.2.2 validator problem in websphere

2004-08-31 Thread Kris Schneider
I was gonna post this suggestion anyway, but here's something that will work
with JDK 1.3 and is in the spirit of avoiding the creation of Boolean
instances. Instead of:

new Boolean(this.stopOnFirstError)

How about something like:

(this.stopOnFirstError ? Boolean.TRUE : Boolean.FALSE)

Or create a utility method to do the equivalent. No doubt Commons Lang already
has one...yup, BooleanUtils.toBooleanObject(boolean).

Re: Classloading problem

2004-08-31 Thread Erik Weber
This is from the JDBC DataSource howto:
DBCP uses the Jakarta-Commons Database Connection Pool. It relies on 
number of Jakarta-Commons componenets:

   * Jakarta-Commons DBCP 1.0
   * Jakarta-Commons Collections 2.0
   * Jakarta-Commons Pool 1.0
These jar files along with your the jar file for your JDBC driver should 
be installed in |$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib|.

   *NOTE:*Third Party drivers should be in jarfiles, not zipfiles.
   Tomcat only adds |$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib/*.jar| to the classpath. 

   *NOTE:* Do not install these jarfiles in your |/WEB-INF/lib|, or
   |$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext|, or anywhere else. You will experience
   problems if you install them anyplace other than
   |$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib|.

 I was gonna post this suggestion anyway, but here's something that will
work
 with JDK 1.3 and is in the spirit of avoiding the creation of Boolean

 new Boolean(this.stopOnFirstError)

 How about something like:

 (this.stopOnFirstError ? Boolean.TRUE : Boolean.FALSE)

 Or create a utility method to do the equivalent. No doubt Commons Lang

Re: Questions on logging

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 Hi
 
 I am in the stage of implementing logging in my struts application. I
 have been reading online but have some questions unanswered.
 
 1. Action class should be thread-safe. Therefore no static variable, I
 should just use a non-static variable to hold my logger?
 

A more precise definition of the rule is no non-thread-safe static or
instance variables that attempt to maintain state associated with a
particlar request.  Log instances are OK based on that rule, because
they are both threadsafe and application-wide.

 2. In a multi-user web application, how can I keep logs from the same
 class (same execution thread or same user request) stays together? I
 envision them to be all messy in the log file when there's multiple user
 requesting for the same action class.

As Nico points out, you can get the thread id added, that doesn't help
segregate log messages by application.  A different strategy is to set
up a separate logging environment for each webapp -- details will be
in, for example, the Log4J information.

 3. About the thread safe issue with Actin class, that doesn't apply to
 the other classes that action execute right? Those are treated as normal
 java files.

Thread safety of the object instances you call depends on whether you
created a separate instance for each request, or are reusing the same
instance.  In the former case, you don't have to worry -- in the
latter case (say you grabbed some common utility object out of the
application scope attributes), then the class for the instance you are
calling does need to be worried about thread safety.

 
 Thanks
 
 Sebastian

Also, since you appear to be trying to follow the documenation, have you

Re: Classloading problem

2004-08-31 Thread Erik Weber
Kris, this is from context.html in the Tomcat 5 docs:*
Please note that for tomcat 5.x, unlike tomcat 4.x, it is NOT 
recommended to place Context elements directly in the server.xml 
file.* Instead, put them in the META-INF/context.xml directory of your 
WAR file or the conf directory as described above.

So here I am, stupidly trying to put my Foo.xml file within 
/META-INF/context.xml/ (and various variations of that) of my web app.

So should I rename Foo.xml to context.xml (I ask because in the conf 
directory I have been naming it Foo.xml, not context.xml), and put it in 
*WEB-INF*?

Could you show me where you found how to do this in the docs? Am I just 
completely misreading the above sentence?

Thanks for your help,

RE: Classloading problem

2004-08-31 Thread Ivan Vasquez
Thanks for your answer, that explains it all. 

Yes, we were trying to clean server.xml and to avoid server restarts
every time something changes (e.g. db connection pool info). Context was
directly cut and pasted into the local META-INF/context.xml. 

But Tomcat gets it only when you create a .war and then deploy it. If
you have a deployed application, create META-INF/context.xml and delete
its context entry from server.xml, the context is lost. The only way to
make the app work again is to place context.xml in
conf/Catalina/localhost/ (that must be part of Tomcat's auto deployment
feature).

Hope that helps, let me know if that doesn't work for you.
Thanks!

the Common  class loader instead). All unpacked classes and resources
in
$CATALINA_BASE/shared/classes, as well as classes and resources in JAR
files under $CATALINA_BASE/shared/lib, are made visible through this
class loader.



In our case we want to share jars common to all applications, but none
of them are required by Tomcat.

Re: Is Tiles the right way to go?

2004-08-31 Thread John Plate
Hi Craig

  I am trying to learn Tiles.
  Is Tiles the right way to go with Struts?
  Should I study other tool before sticking with Tiles?
...
 It is impossible to give you any useful help on this question
 without understanding what you are trying to accomplish with (or
 without) Tiles, and what alternative tools you might consider
 instead.

Could you please give some indication of what to think about before
going with Tiles? I would be interesting...

Thanks

Hang on, my bad - it should be /META-INF/context.xml. So, rename Foo.xml to be
context.xml and place it in *META-INF*.

Quoting Erik Weber [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Kris, this is from context.html in the Tomcat 5 docs:*
 
 Please note that for tomcat 5.x, unlike tomcat 4.x, it is NOT 
 recommended to place Context elements directly in the server.xml 
 file.* Instead, put them in the META-INF/context.xml directory of your 
 WAR file or the conf directory as described above.
 
 So here I am, stupidly trying to put my Foo.xml file within 
 /META-INF/context.xml/ (and various variations of that) of my web app.
 
 So should I rename Foo.xml to context.xml (I ask because in the conf 
 directory I have been naming it Foo.xml, not context.xml), and put it in 
 *WEB-INF*?
 
 Could you show me where you found how to do this in the docs? Am I just 
 completely misreading the above sentence?

  new Boolean(this.stopOnFirstError)
 
  How about something like:
 
  (this.stopOnFirstError ? Boolean.TRUE : Boolean.FALSE)
 
  Or create a utility method to do the equivalent. No doubt Commons Lang
 already
  has one...yup, BooleanUtils.toBooleanObject(boolean).

You can have some way of catching this so the user won't see this error.  I
use a meta tag that makes the page redirect to /logon.do after the
(configurable) timeout has expired (this happens client side and no
javascript required).

I have tried this repeatedly. I am using the same Foo.xml file that does

renamed the file to context.xml and it is in META-INF in my war file. I 
have also tried putting Foo.xml or context.xml within a

I basically observed the same behavior that Ivan described.

2004-08-31 Thread struts Dude
Thanks robert. Greatly appreciated.

Now has anyone tried to put login form on every page of
site if user hasn't login with STRUTS? Say, put a small login
form on left hand column menu/navigational bar.

 Is there anything I need to look out for?

Subject: RE: SecurityFilter Question?


 I haven't been following this thread too closely but
 I know its been some what long so if this solution has
 already been proposed, I apologize in advance.

 We use SecurityFilter and an additional filter which
 checks for the Principal in the request. If the Principal exists,
 then we can be assured that the user has successfully logged in; at
 which point we check to see if the required information is in the
 session. If not, then we persist the required information into the
session.
 If so, then we do nothing. In either case we allow the filter chain to
proceed.
 It has worked quite nicely so far.


 Principal principal = req.getUserPrincipal();

 if (principal != null) {


if (req.getSession().getAttribute(requiredInformation) == null) {

// do other login stuff here

}

 }

 chain.doFilter(req, res);

 hth,

 robert

   Can't u do this using an Action? Say, accessing /admin/LogAction.do
   invokes SecurityFilter, after authentication by SecurityFilter is
passed,
   go directly to LogAction as below
   
   
  
   The problem comes if the user bookmarks a url like /user/abc.do,
starts
   up their browser and goes directly to the protected URL.  The security
   filter will take them to the login form, they submit username/password
   and seucirty filter authenticates them.  Once they are authenticated
   they are redirected back to /users/abc.do - they don't pass through
   LogAction at all.  So I normally have a filter that makes sure the
bean
   is in session from where ever they are called.
  
 
 
   You don't have to use a filter though, you could make a base action
that
   does puts the bean into session and have all your actions sub-class
that
   one.
 
  Using action to put bean in Session after SecurityFilter, how is that
  possible when after authentication by SecurityFilter, u taken right
  back to /user/abc.do where u 1st request it and doesn't pass
  through to action attribute as specified in action-mapping of
  struts-config.xml?
 
  I have tried to use action, after authentication, I am indeed taken
  back to the page /admin/logon.do or /user/logon.do and got
  error message in browser:
 
  HTTP Status 400 - Invalid path /admin/Logon was requested
 
  message Invalid path /admin/Logon was requested
 
  description The request sent by the client was syntactically incorrect
  (Invalid path /admin/Logon was requested).
 
  -
 
  My action mapping is struts-conf.xml
 
  Both
 
   action
   path=/admin/Logon.do
   type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction
parameter=LogAction.do?action=logon/
 
  action
  path=/user/Logon.do
  type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction
parameter=LogAction.do?action=logon/
 
  !-- 
  My LogAction extends DispatchAction and will try
  to put User bean in session. --
 
  or
 
  action
  path=/admin/Logon.do
  type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction
  parameter=Welcome.do/
  action
  path=/user/Logon.do
  type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction
  parameter=Welcome.do/
 
  won't work.
 
  ---
 
  BTW, how wud u use html:form to display
  login fields?
 
  I can't get struts tag to work with login fields
  except for using things like:
 
  form action=j_security_check method=POST
   Username: input type=text name=j_usernamep
   Password: input type=password name=j_passwordp
   input type=Submit
 
  /form
 
  --
 
  Ok, using filter (as u said) after SecurityFilter wud solve this simply
but
  I like to stick with pure Struts approach if possible.
 
  Thanks

Re: After sesion invalidate cannot find bean

2004-08-31 Thread Erik Weber
Seemingly (I haven't done this but actually I need to and probably will 
try it):

1) extend org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor
2) override either the processPreprocess method, or the processMapping 
method, either of which is invoked *before* processActionForm
3) in processPreprocess, issue redirect to login page or error page and 
return false if, say, your User object does not exist as a Session 
attribute
or
3) in processMapping, return an alternative ActionMapping (to your login 
page or error page -- one which does not require a Session-scoped form 
for setup) if the User object does not exist.
4) edit the controller element of struts-config.xml to install your 
custom RequestProcessor

Hope that helps,
Erik

Ivan, as you can see I've tried everything I can think of. Perhaps when 
I have more time I will mess around with it some more, but it's easier 
just to use JBoss.

I appreciate your help (and Kris's).

I have tried this repeatedly. I am using the same Foo.xml file that
   

does
 

work when placed in conf/Catalina/localhost/. I have tried with and 
without the path and docBase attributes to the Context element. I have 
renamed the file to context.xml and it is in META-INF in my war file. I
   

 

have also tried putting Foo.xml or context.xml within a 
META-INF/context.xml/ *directory* as the documentation suggests.

DBCP throws an Exception on startup that it cannot create a JDBC driver
   

 

of class '' for connect URL 'null'. I am supposing that the context
   

file
 

is never loaded. Also Tomcat creates a Foo.xml directory inside of 
conf/Catalina/localhost with nothing in it. If I try restarting the 
server, I also get a FileNotFoundException on Foo.xml, saying it is a 
directory (good grief). I have tried hot deploy and deploying via the 
manager web app as well.

I basically observed the same behavior that Ivan described.
I would love to see that example if you can find it.

tiles and ActionForwards

2004-08-31 Thread Leung, Albert
I would like to use a tile definition in an action forward with request
parameters. I have an Action that takes a forward mapped in the Action
definition and supplies it with parameters by appending it to the path and
then creating a new ActionForward with the supplied parameters. I can't use
something like this for some reason:

action
...
forward name=list path=.apps.list/
/action

where .apps.list is defined in my tiles-defs.xml.

And then in my Action class I try to do this:

forward = mapping.findForward( list );
path = new StringBuffer( forward.getPath() );
path.append( ?page= + page );
path.append( total= + total );
return new ActionForward( path.toString() );

The RequestProcessor tries to do the forward and it can't because the URL is
invalid. Why isn't the Tiles Action servlet catching this and make the
correct substitution?

Because, you're not giving it a tiles definition, you're giving it a url.
Why not just put whatever you're trying to put in the path in request scope?
