Form action context is default rather than the module's context
Using a module I go through an action to a JSP containg a form (using
html:form). The action attribute of this form
is the same as an action defined in a module's struts config ie /Login, but
when the page is accessed the full form action is the ${default context}/Login
rather than ${default context}/${module}/Login thus resulting in the form being
posted to the Login action of the default module. The action mapping does not
specify contextRelative=true in the forwards.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

Subject: JSTL, Tiles PutList and Tomcat 5.028
Hi All,
I have a jsp page that I am trying to run on Tomcat that
currently works in
Weblogic. It appears the primary problem is that the forEach
tag is not
putting the variable menuItem into the pageContext attributes
and or it
thinks the menuItem is of type String. I am not sure where my actually
problem is (tiles, tomcat etc).
It appears Tomcat is generating code when compiling the JSP
that isn't aware
of the type of class the
org.apache.struts.tiles.beans.SimpleMenuItem is -
it looks like at run time it thinks it is a String.
A snippet of my JSP looks like this (jstl tags - partial):
core:forEach var=menuItem varStatus=status items=${topnav}
core:choose
core:when test=${menuItem.tooltip=='help'}
I do something similar in my code, and it works.
It does look like it's not figuring out what type the menuItem is though
snip/
When I check the pageContext attributes via a debugger I
actually see an
item in the collection with the key topnav and it contains
a Vector of
items that appear to be of type SimpleMenuItem. However I
never see the item
called menuItem that I thought the forEach tag would place in
there for me.
And I think the tutorial is agreeing with you:
The forEach tag allows you to iterate over a collection of objects. You
specify the collection via the items attribute, and the current item is
available through a scope variable named by the item attribute.
A large number of collection types are supported by forEach, including all
implementations of java.util.Collection and java.util.Map. If the items
attribute is of type java.util.Map, then the current item will be of type
java.util.Map.Entry, which has the following properties:
* key - the key under which the item is stored in the underlying Map
* value - the value that corresponds to the key
Arrays of objects as well as arrays of primitive types (for example, int) are
also supported. For arrays of primitive types, the current item for the
iteration is automatically wrapped with its standard wrapper class (for
example, Integer for int, Float for float, and so on).
Implementations of java.util.Iterator and java.util.Enumeration are supported
but these must be used with caution. Iterator and Enumeration objects are not
resettable so they should not be used within more than one iteration tag.
Finally, java.lang.String objects can be iterated over if the string contains
a list of comma separated values (for example:
Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday).
Here's the shopping cart iteration from the previous section with the forEach
tag:
c:forEach var=item items=${sessionScope.cart.items}
...
tr
td align=right bgcolor=#ff
${item.quantity}
/td
...
/c:forEach
The forTokens tag is used to iterate over a collection of tokens separated by
a delimiter.

RE: Form action context is default rather than the module's context
It actually looks as though the correct module is being detected when the
request is processed, and forwarding to the correct jsp, but the module context
is being lost when the JSP is processed, thus the wrong action in the form. Is
there any reason for the context being lost?

Re: ActionForm validate and redirect
You can't modify the actual struts instances that were configured in struts-config. However, you can handle the validation in your Action object (see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=struts-userm=109302108205069w=2) and redirect with parameters by constructing your own ActionForward instance. There's a patch to an open enhancement request that you can use: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=9369 The enhancement request is http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=866. If you want to pass the ActionMessage objects as part of the url, you can use a set of classes I've been using: http://www.rabago.net/struts/redirect/ Hubert On Fri, 3 Dec 2004 16:33:15 +0200, Ilja Smoli [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi I use validate method in one of my ActionForms, after validation is fail, method redirects browser to wahatever is set in struts-config.xml under input attribut...

i18n and the database...
Hi. I'm investigating ways to support multiple languages in my app, without using the typical ResourceBundle/MessageResources approach. I was thinking that I would like to use a database instead. It seems to me that a large application trying to support multiple languages with this approach might become a real maintenance issue. What I'm interested in is three things: 1.)Any opinions on whether this does in fact create maintenance issues (I've yet to write a large, i18n app). And what are the ways to mitigate some of these issues. 2.)Is anyone using a database-driven approach to this, storing application labels, etc. in tables and retrieving them. Possibly, by reimplementing versions of ResourceBundle/MessageResources to go against tables. You'd still have to update entries manually but I kind of like the idea of putting this info in the database. 3.)I know that some databases, Oracle, and I hear the newest version of MySQL support UTF-8. I've no experience in this area. Does anyone have experience with storing text in UTF-8 in the database? This *seems* like it could be an ideal approach, eliminating alot of on-going work. Obviously, the app would be less portable. If anyone has suggestions/comments on any of the above, I've love to hear them. Thanks in advance, Mike - Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - 250MB free storage.

RE: JSTL, Tiles PutList and Tomcat 5.028
Hi Matk,
I have the following statement
tiles:importAttribute /
Which I think am lead to believe it imports all the attributes into the
page scope.
In an effort to figure out what was happening I downloaded the jstl 1.0.6
and built a debug project in eclipse so I could step into the ForEach tag
and I am not sure what I am really looking at yet in there but it appears
that indeed the item does contain a string and that the items collection on
the tag has a somewhat string delimited representation of the collection.
See below: This is that actual value in the string in the debugger... Is
this how it is stored then is ir reconstituted into SimpleMenuItem(s) as
the tag loops. The string looks like a collection because of the , i.e.
it looks like a string tokenizer.
[SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.adminhome,
link=/aems/session/changefiltertoken.do?btnResetFilter=true,
tooltip=impersonationItem, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.account,
link=/aems/party/persondetail.do, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.organization,
link=/aems/party/organizationdetail.do, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.library,
link=/aems/file/filelibrarylist.do, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.addressbook,
link=/aems/communication/personsearchlist.do, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.help, link=#, tooltip=help, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.logout, link=/aems/logout.do, ]]
And give this sting in the items - the actual when call to next() within the
EnumeratonAdapter way in the ForEachSupport class actuall calls the
StringTokenizer and returns an item of:
[SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.adminhome
So it looks like it went to the first , and thus the subject of my email
might really be changed to: What is causing ForEach to read/load my tiles
putlist collection as a string and not as a collection of the
SimpleMenuItems they really are? Pretty darn long subject :
On a side note - not sure if this means anything - when I compiled the
course I was required by eclipse to add two new methods to the
PageContextImpl in the org.apache.taglibs.standard.lang.jstl.test package
does it looks like perhaps the different JSP version might be an issue. i.e.

And I think the tutorial is agreeing with you:
The forEach tag allows you to iterate over a collection of objects. You
specify the collection via the items attribute, and the current item is
available through a scope variable named by the item attribute.
A large number of collection types are supported by forEach, including all
implementations of java.util.Collection and java.util.Map. If the items
attribute is of type java.util.Map, then the current item will be of type
java.util.Map.Entry, which has the following properties:
* key - the key under which the item is stored in the underlying Map
* value
RE: JSTL, Tiles PutList and Tomcat 5.028
Hi Matk,
I have the following statement
tiles:importAttribute /
Which I think am lead to believe it imports all the attributes into the
page scope.
In an effort to figure out what was happening I downloaded the jstl 1.0.6
and built a debug project in eclipse so I could step into the ForEach tag
and I am not sure what I am really looking at yet in there but it appears
that indeed the item does contain a string and that the items collection on
the tag has a somewhat string delimited representation of the collection.
See below: This is that actual value in the string in the debugger... Is
this how it is stored then is ir reconstituted into SimpleMenuItem(s) as
the tag loops. The string looks like a collection because of the , i.e.
it looks like a string tokenizer.
[SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.adminhome,
link=/aems/session/changefiltertoken.do?btnResetFilter=true,
tooltip=impersonationItem, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.account,
link=/aems/party/persondetail.do, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.organization,
link=/aems/party/organizationdetail.do, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.library,
link=/aems/file/filelibrarylist.do, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.addressbook,
link=/aems/communication/personsearchlist.do, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.help, link=#, tooltip=help, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.logout, link=/aems/logout.do, ]]
And give this sting in the items - the actual when call to next() within the
EnumeratonAdapter way in the ForEachSupport class actuall calls the
StringTokenizer and returns an item of:
[SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.adminhome
So it looks like it went to the first , and thus the subject of my email
might really be changed to: What is causing ForEach to read/load my tiles
putlist collection as a string and not as a collection of the
SimpleMenuItems they really are? Pretty darn long subject :
On a side note - not sure if this means anything - when I compiled the
course I was required by eclipse to add two new methods to the
PageContextImpl in the org.apache.taglibs.standard.lang.jstl.test package
does it looks like perhaps the different JSP version might be an issue. i.e.
will jstl 1.0.6 work in Tomcat 5.0.28?

RE: JSTL, Tiles PutList and Tomcat 5.028
Thanks James,
It looks like if I put a break point in the setItems() method of the forEach
I am passed a string - that string appears to be the .toString() of the
SimpleMenuItem(s) collection.
I check the .toString() of SimpleMenuItem and it has the format of the long
string below from my previous message - i.e. the 5 or so items in the
collection.
How does / or should the ForEach turn that string back into a collection of
items.
When looking at the parameter on the method signature I had expected that I
would get the EXPRESSION that needed to be evaluated by jstl within the
tag instead it appears the expression has been run prior to the call of the
method an then the .toString() has been called.
Thanks for everyone's help and input on this - I have now spent two/three
very late nights tracking this down.

Hi Matk,
I have the following statement
tiles:importAttribute /
Which I think am lead to believe it imports all the
attributes into the
page scope.
In an effort to figure out what was happening I downloaded
the jstl 1.0.6
and built a debug project in eclipse so I could step into the
ForEach tag
and I am not sure what I am really looking at yet in there
but it appears
that indeed the item does contain a string and that the items
collection on
the tag has a somewhat string delimited representation of
the collection.
See below: This is that actual value in the string in the
debugger... Is
this how it is stored then is ir reconstituted into
SimpleMenuItem(s) as
the tag loops. The string looks like a collection because
of the , i.e.
it looks like a string tokenizer.
[SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.adminhome,
link=/aems/session/changefiltertoken.do?btnResetFilter=true,
tooltip=impersonationItem, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.account,
link=/aems/party/persondetail.do, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.organization,

SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.library,

link=/aems/communication/personsearchlist.do, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.help, link=#, tooltip=help, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.logout, link=/aems/logout.do, ]]
And give this sting in the items - the actual when call to
next() within the
EnumeratonAdapter way in the ForEachSupport class actuall calls the
StringTokenizer and returns an item of:
[SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.adminhome
So it looks like it went to the first , and thus the
subject of my email
might really be changed to: What is causing ForEach to
read/load my tiles
putlist collection as a string and not as a collection of the

RE: JSTL, Tiles PutList and Tomcat 5.028
Thanks James,
It looks like if I put a break point in the setItems() method of the forEach
I am passed a string - that string appears to be the .toString() of the
SimpleMenuItem(s) collection.
I check the .toString() of SimpleMenuItem and it has the format of the long
string below from my previous message - i.e. the 5 or so items in the
collection.
How does / or should the ForEach turn that string back into a collection of
items.
When looking at the parameter on the method signature I had expected that I
would get the EXPRESSION that needed to be evaluated by jstl within the
tag instead it appears the expression has been run prior to the call of the
method an then the .toString() has been called.
Thanks for everyone's help and input on this - I have now spent two/three
very late nights tracking this down.

Re: i18n and the database...
Michael Klaene mklaene 'at' yahoo.com writes: 3.)I know that some databases, Oracle, and I hear the newest version of MySQL support UTF-8. I've no experience in this area. Does anyone have experience with storing text in UTF-8 in the database? This *seems* like it could be an ideal approach, eliminating alot of on-going work. Obviously, the app would be less portable. If you want to go with full i18n, even if you don't store localized messages in database, you will hit the wall sooner or later if the database is not able to store any string representing text in any language, because you will want sooner or later that your users be able to enter localized data in forms that will end up in the database (their first/last name, etc). Because of that reason, you need that the database be able to store and retrieve localized text; a good approach can be to specify that data is stored in a unicode character encoding; UTF-8 is typically a good candidate when you have a lot of latin-based text. And this is really an issue at the database end. In java, the Strings can correctly and transparently handle any language. You just have to make sure that the database driver will correctly store and retrieve data. In the application at my company, the (postgres) database is using UTF-8 and there is really nothing to say here: it works, there is no problem. In my opinion, the only issue is really the communication between the end-user (browser) and your application. Sending data to the end-user should be ok by using UTF-8 in your webpages, if your users are not using netscape 2.0 or something. Retrieving data should be ok by using UTF-8 in your webpages and possibly specifying accept-charset=UTF-8 in your forms, and filtering the input to force the CharacterEncoding to UTF-8 (because browsers usually don't say that the data they send is UTF-8 encoded - there are been many discussions on that topic on this list). Please keep us updated about your project; I would be curious to know about the performance, if you really go to using the database for localized messages. -- Guillaume Cottenceau - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

the jstl 1.0.6
and built a debug project in eclipse so I could step into the
ForEach tag
and I am not sure what I am really looking at yet in there
but it appears
that indeed the item does contain a string and that the items
collection on
the tag has a somewhat string delimited representation of
the collection.
See below: This is that actual value in the string in the
debugger... Is
this how it is stored then is ir reconstituted into
SimpleMenuItem(s) as
the tag loops. The string looks like a collection because
of the , i.e.
it looks like a string tokenizer.
[SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.adminhome,
link=/aems/session/changefiltertoken.do?btnResetFilter=true,
tooltip=impersonationItem, ], SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.account,
link=/aems/party/persondetail.do, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.organization,
link=/aems/party/organizationdetail.do, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.library,
link=/aems/file/filelibrarylist.do, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.addressbook,
link=/aems/communication/personsearchlist.do, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.help, link=#, tooltip=help, ],
SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.logout, link=/aems/logout.do, ]]
And give this sting in the items - the actual when call to
next() within the
EnumeratonAdapter way in the ForEachSupport class actuall calls the
StringTokenizer and returns an item of:
[SimpleMenuItem[value=nav.adminhome
So it looks like it went to the first , and thus the
subject of my email
might really be changed to: What is causing ForEach to
read/load my tiles
putlist collection as a string and not as a collection of the
SimpleMenuItems they really are? Pretty darn long subject :

struts tags and scriplet
Hi there! I often find myself writing scriptlet due to struts tags or my misunderstanding about it. Let's suppose I have an action that retreives information in a user bean. My jsp has an account form-bean and one of the properties is the userID (a hidden value) I always end up doing this: html:form property=userId value='%=user.getId()%'/ is there a more elegant way? thanks - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: i18n and the database... -thanks - 1 more question
Thanks for all of the feedback. I'll think on it some more with these suggestions in mind. I have one additional question, *sort of* on the topic of Message Resources. Suppose there is a database table that holds metadata used to configure some screens, but not all. This table holds the form label, among other things. Instead of storing the actual label text in this table, I was thinking of storing the label as 'my_form.favorite_color'. This refers to the entry in the ResourceBundle. Would there be an ideal way to perform this transformation? I can think of something like a javaScript onload: reload function with the jsp set to nocache. Just wondering if anyone has ever tried storing code in the db that needs to be translated.

If you want to go with full i18n, even if you don't store localized messages in database, you will hit the wall sooner or later if the database is not able to store any string representing text in any language, because you will want sooner or later that your users be able to enter localized data in forms that will end up in the database (their first/last name, etc).

Re: i18n and the database...
I'd endorse this. UTF-8 or UTF-16 (depending on what languages you're expecting most of your data to be in) will handle anything. If you have Oracle it will also handle anything, it had NLS support before unicode, but your database must be set up with a suitable character set. It is completely a non-issue. But do cache the resources. If the resource access is encapsulated then you can try with and without caching, you'll notice a difference.

html:form action=... - Newbie
Hi, Here's what I want to achieve : I have a form (call it INPUT). Let's say the form's action is ActionA.do. ActionA.do is mapped to com.mycompany.myclass, which can either forward to success or failure. In struts-config.xml, success is mapped to ActionB.do, and I want failure to be mapped to a simple JSP error page, call it failure.jsp. In other words, I don't want to re-display INPUT with errors (html:errors) : I want a completely different page, because it doesn't make sense in my application to re-display the INPUT form when this error occurs. In failure.jsp, I want to display the error message, and have a button that, when clicked, will return the user to some other page, mapped to ActionStart.do. So, I thought I would use the following struts tag : html:form action=ActionStart.do in that error page. When I try the application, and the failure condition is triggered, I get the following error message : 2004-12-03 13:27:20 StandardWrapperValve[action]: Servlet.service() for servlet action threw exception org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Cannot retrieve definition for form bean null at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:2 54) at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:295) at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:241) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853) ...

(the name attribute on the html:form tag has been removed in Struts 1.2.x). As far as your frustration; my advice is to (1) take a few deep breaths (2) look over the examples included with Struts. The Struts community is very helpful; if you don't lose your patience; then they won't either. -Bill Siggelkow Vinicius Caldeira Carvalho wrote: Wendy Smoak wrote: From: Vinicius Caldeira Carvalho [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have two actions cuz: The first one is triggered after the user clicks in a link from a page that displays a list of prospects. so it find the prospect attributes and then sets it for the form in the next page. got it? Yes, but you'll find 'Action Chaining' is generally frowned upon. Your first action does not have an 'input' attribute, it just goes straight to the second action when it's done. And if you're setting a form property in the first action that you say is NOT there in the second action, it makes me think that a new request [and thus a new form] is being created somewhere along the line. First, I'd put a debug statement in before: reservaForm.setIdProponente(proponente.getId()); and print out proponente.getId() to make sure it really has a value. Maybe you're setting the form property to the empty String without realizing it. What does the log file say?

If you then see a second form creation, well, that's where your value went! Well I think I got it. I used to debug a log when the constructor of my form is called and guess what. Back in the good old struts in action (struts sequence diagram page) The action servlet looks for an action (first action) finds a form associated (great!!! let's instantiate it for you).

Re: MVC initialization
A bit late to the party, but... Firstly, I'd second what Joe said about PlugIns vs ServletContextListener: in more than one instance I've found that using ServletContextListener that does service/model initialization paid off when I later wanted to use the same service layer in a non-Struts web app; unless it needs to be tied to Struts, a servlet context listener has the mvc framework-neutrality benefit. I'd also add that you might find the Spring IoC (or another IoC container such as Pico) features are worth going a step further toward making your services webapp-independent as well. Using Spring, I configure a model layer that consists of a rich domain, orm mapper (hibernate/jdo) and, if needed, a service layer that creates a facade for app-specific behavior and to handle transaction demarcation. This setup works equally well in a Struts webapp (or any other webapp) as it does in fat clients, unit tests and scripts (scripting a Spring-configured rich domain model in grovvy is a real kick!). It's surprisingly simple to do as well. In that way, the configuration and bootstrapping of your service and model layers are flexible and reusable outside the webapp. - Ken On Nov 30, 2004, at 9:00 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thank you both much!!!

Re: Where to store and how to retrieve Images for web app
My experience with this has been a blend of some of what's been said so
far, with a bit of sugar on top.
I agree with those who say that the filesystem and a stock webserver
(apache) are the way to server images - and all static content, imho.
(ymmv) Particularly since your image data is dynamic (not part of
your app but user data that is uploaded), this makes webapp deployment
easier and even allows deployment of an unpacked war.
I use apache to serve all images, and an image manager object in the
service layer of my app (as I believe Joe suggested as wel ). The
image manager handles storing uploaded images to the a configured
filesystem location as well as associating the related metadata with
the business data.
The bit of sugar you might consider is a tag that uses a configured
http prefix to generate the URL's for img tags.
In one application, I have a simple tag that composes product catalog
image URL's, given a product instance, for example:
img src=i:catalogImageURI product=${product}'/
That tag just uses attributes of the Product domain object to compose
the URL, given the currently-configured http server that's handling
images.
You can then tweak your webapp configuration to allow for your web
container to serve the images out of your context root during
development for example, but have apache serve the images in
production.

hihi,
yea i also keep images on the fileserver. it's nice and simple. as
many others have said already, all that needs to go to the database is
any meta info about the image you require and any other info needed to

no need for any servlet image--blob business. when you need to
deploy or redeploy, just zip up the the images folder or just war the
whole thing and away you go. can't get simpler than that.
i have also found websphere to be slower than tomcat. it's not as

Does anyone know if there are advantages in particular app-servers
to
keeping your graphics on the filesystem versus in the database?
Well...let's see... local to server file system, no data xfer across
network. Store image in DB and you have to pull image across net,
then shove it out to user.
Depending on image size and network latency, the container won't make
any difference at all to performance.
If you're doing a lot of images, then you probably want to put Apache
in front. I have told apache to redirect certain requests to the
images directory, while letting my web app write their. Beats ths
stuffin out of writing a pass through servlet. If apache and
app-server can't reside on same box, share drives or use something
like rsync to keep both boxes up to date.
As for app-server speed... I've found Websphere to be somewhat slower
the Tomcat then again.. it could be the @[EMAIL PROTECTED]@$@% legacy code

Re: [OT] Eclips 3.01 + IBM WTP + Tomcat 5
Yes. That's my thought as well. Eclipse likes to control things though. I first tried putting quotes around the path and when that didn't work I reinstalled to a new, shorter, spaceless location. I didn't try using short names, but I have to wonder if Eclipse would like that. It seemed pretty picky! Still, it's food for thought if there's anyone else out there setting up the WTP :-) Later / Thanks! Eddie - Original Message - From: David G.
