Is there an abstract meta-model of Struts ?

[Begur, Praveen]

Hi All,

Quesiton: I understand that there exists a programmatic API, documentation
and source-code of Struts, but is there a formal meta-model of Struts ( from
an application development point of view ) ?

Purpose: I am a practioner of MDA ( Model Driven Architecture ) and use
AndroMDA to create meta-models of popular technologies like DAO, EJB, etc
and then auto-generate User applications like HR ( by modeling Employee,
Department etc) etc. 

I am interested in the meta-model of Struts so that I can feed / create such
a Model into AndroMDA and use the tool to help me auto-generate Presentation
Tier code components based on Struts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

regards,
Praveen

Cross-Site Scripting attack

[Deepa Khetan]

Hi,
 I am working for the Security of my site. Read about Cross-Site-Scripting
attacks being most common. Can anyone help me regarding what can be the best
freeware tool to test a CSS vulnerability of my site. Also, any suggestions
on how CSS attack can be avoided? We are using Struts framework.
 Any information/suggestion is most welcome.

Re: Submit buttons getting their value

[Dakota Jack]

Try to stay on topic, Martin.  Less heat and more light, please.  If
you have something enlightening to say, I am sure we all would be
interested.  Building straw men and torching them is an old trick.  I
am not talking about the Planet.  Although, in this area I don't know
a better solution.  One thing for sure is that your suggestions are
misguided and not up on the state of the art.

The only one I have suggested in this discussion is missing the boat
to the beheading is you, so, unless you somehow identify yourself with
the entire Planet, that is a straw man.

Re: java.util.Date in Action Form Bean

[Yujun Liang]

Murray,

Thanks for your reply. I know how to use other methods to handle it, such as 
putting String property on form bean and convert it to date inside mybean. I 
am asking whether it is possible for Struts to handle date conversion with 
Locale automatically, then I can only configure a single entry form bean for 
the action form, it can save a great deal of effort. Please compare the 
following configuration style,


Do you configure your action form like this,
type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm">


   



or like this,
type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm">

Subject: Re: java.util.Date in Action Form Bean



Hi

I add additional getters and setters for handling dates and prices (and 
other special
numeric formats).  For example, in addition to the normal getter I code an 
additional

one to retrieve the date as a string.

   public Date getDateStart() {
   return dateStart;
   }
   public String getDateStartAsString() {
   if (dateStart == null) return "";
   return Focus.date2String(dateStart);
   }


I then code up some static methods to format dates to strings and similar 
methods to
make the opposite translation (string back to date).  For example, a 
method from my

Focus class related to the above code:

   public static String date2String(Date date) {
   return sdf.format(date);
   }

And if you're desparate, here is the sdf definition:

   private static SimpleDateFormat sdf = new 
SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/");


You can do the same thing with a Timestamp, depends how many fields you 
want to
declare on your form and how much data entry you want your user to do.  I 
used a
similar method in my Focus class to get/set the date portion of the 
timestamp value:


   public static String timestamp2String(Timestamp ts) {
   if (ts == null) return "";
   return date2String(new Date(ts.getTime()));
   }

Struts Validation Rule for Single Java Bean form-property

[Yujun Liang]

Hello,

I define a single Java Bean Form Bean, do you know how to define the validation 
rule? Thanks.

3. HTML Form

java.util.Date in Action Form Bean

[Yujun Liang]

Hello,

I am working on a project using Struts. Struts uses BeanUtil to populate Action 
Form Bean. This is such a nice framework to work with, except, 

BeanUtil doesn't support java.util.Date conversion. But when I use 
java.sql.Timestamp, it asks for the format of 
-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.f

Here is the exception when I enter other format,

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Timestamp format must be 
-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.f

In a web application, it is not reasonable to ask user to input -mm-dd 
hh:mm:ss.f.

Also, it doesn't support Locale.

Do you have experience getting java.util.Date populated in a Java Bean inside a 
FormBean?


Thanks in advance.

Re: [ot] utility to verify if an Object implements all methods from Interface?

[David Evans]

I think you could use the java.lang.reflect package classes:

Object obj = new Object();
Method[] methods = obj.getClass.getMethods();

Create another test object that does implement all of the interfaces,
and then compare the methods array to the array created by the test
object's .getClass.getMethods()

If you're within the context of a RequestDispatcher.include() -- which is
what Tiles is doing under the covers -- the servlet container promises to
create some request attributes for you that contain useful information about
the included URI, rather than the original request URI. In particular, the
attribute named "javax.servlet.include.request_uri" will include what you
are looking for. Other attributes of interest:
* javax.servlet.include.context_path
* javax.servlet.include.servlet_path
* javax.servlet.include.path_info
* javax.servlet.include.query_string

(See section SRV.8.3.1 of the Servlet Spec for more info.)

logic:iterate and bean:write not showing when jstl c:out does

[Stephen Souness]

Hi all,

I am using Struts 1.2.7, under Tomcat 5.0.25.

I have a JSP within my struts application which I ultimately want to 
have output some checkboxes (using ).


Other areas of my application use LabelValueBean with  
and  just fine.


However, this particular area of my application has a few differing 
requirements and is not behaving the way I had hoped.


The key difference is that this particular area of the application 
involves a FormBean which is shared across several pages, and is stored 
in session scope.


I think that the action is correct in adding the Form like so:

request.getSession().setAttribute("myForm", myForm);


The JSP which acts as the view for the action can display attributes 
from the form if I refer to them using JSTL tags, but if I refer to the 
same attributes through struts tags, e.g.


property="myLabelValueBeans">




the page finishes loading and displays nothing at all.


I've seen behaviour like this in the past when a list is not being 
populated, but I am quite certain that this is not the case.


Does anyone have any advice on what else I should be looking out for? 
(Logging to enable? etc.)


This is the third project using Struts that I have worked on, so I hope 
this does not turn out to be a "newbie" issue :)

I'm not sure I understand what you're doing here. Are you saying that 
Form1 and Form2 are ActionForm subclasses, and that 'row' in Form1 is an 
array of Form2 instances? And that the JSP is rendering a single form, 
part of which is shown in a table? In that case, Form2 doesn't have to 
be a form bean (ActionForm instance), it can be any arbitrary java bean 
-- or you could have Form1 declare three arrays named type[], currency[] 
and amount[].


There's lots of options here, depending on exactly what you're trying to 
achieve. That said, if I understand what you have then it should work.


Now I am not sure how this row[] values to be displayed using struts in 
the jsp. i mean how to loop thru this to get values.


To loop through a colllection of values, you would use the 
 tag from Struts [1] or, if you have it available, the 
 tag from JSTL.


Maybe you could post your code, JSP and struts-config.xml so we can see 
more clearly what you're doing.

A couple of gotchas concerning TagLibs

what version JSP container ?
if its 2.0 then consider JSTL 1.1.x tags

On the other hand the struts html tag library outstrips anything 
available from JSTL
But if you want performance steer clear Struts logic: tags as they 
rank slowest of all available Logic Taglibs


If you are concerned about being tied into a TagLib that doesnt

It's really up to you to a large extent. You can have a single form 
bean for an entire application if you want. One for each page that 
has a form on it is probably typical though.


The User Guide section on developing view components [1] may help you 
get a better overall understanding of what your options are.


I'm not sure when you say 'nested tags' if you're referring to the 
'nested' tag library, or if you just mean having tags nested inside 
other tags. Assuming the former, no, you don't necessarily need to 
use them, though they may make some things easier. I'd suggest 
getting to grips with the basics first and then looking at the 
'nested' taglib again later, when you'll be better able to understand 
if what it offers applies to what you're doing.

Thanks for the help Ryan.  I believe I addressed the component id problem you 
identified.  


I think we might be able to extend this symbol replacement to the JSP clay tag. 
 Maybe create a tag similar to the jsf attribute tag.  I guess that would 
require changing the clay tag to a body tag.  This would be similar to what 
Craig described in the original clay todo list  (#7 
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33752 )


I was also thinking about adding to the clay DTD so that "symbols" could be use 
for full XML views too?

html:base and Tiles

[Laurie Harper]

I feel like I should know the answer to this one but I seem to be 
stumped... How do I get the actual request URI (or URL) in a JSP that's 
included via Tiles?


Both ${pageContext.request.requestURI} and 
${pageContext.request.requestURL} are pointing to the Tiles layout JSP, 
whether or not I include an  tag in the  section in 
the layout.


To be exact, what I actually need is the full context-relative request 
path -- and I'm using URL prefix mapping, so for example the URL I 
browse to would be http://host/bin/some/path and the bit I need is 
'/some/path'.

Re: [ot] utility to verify if an Object implements all methods from Interface?

[Frank W. Zammetti]

Interesting... why can't you implement the interface?  Just curious.

Does it implement any other interfaces to build up the method list?  If 
so, you could just do a serious of instanceof's against all the 
interfaces it implements.  Alternatively, you can use reflection to get 
a list of the methods it contains and do your checks against that.

Unzip/unjar it (jar -xvf fileame.jar) or open it with WinZip and look in the

So, did you also try this:
http://struts.sourceforge.net/strutsdialogs/wizardaction.html
If you did, did you find it counterintuitive? complex? not doing what
you want? I would really appreciate the feedback.

I tried Struts Workflow Extension before, I was not completely
satisfied with it, because it is based on artificial steps, not on
model state. I even wrote a short comparison:
http://www.jroller.com/comments/javadujour/Weblog/spring_web_flow_vs_struts
Also, with SWE you can use navigation buttons, and then wizard will
bite you, telling that you cannot do it. But sometimes you can get SWE
wizard out of sync.

Re: [Shale] new Clay replacement symbols

[Ryan Wynn]

I think I may have narrowed down the problem.

In org.apache.shale.clay.component.chain.CreateComponentCommand 

String id = null;

if ((id = displayElement.getId()) == null)
id = facesContext.getViewRoot().createUniqueId();

UIComponent child = null;
if (displayElement.getFacetName() != null)
child = parent.getFacet(displayElement.getFacetName());
else
child = parent.findComponent(id);
if (child == null) {
// create child
}

probably needs to take into account that id may have a mnemonic associated 
with it.

so, 

String id = null;
id = hasMnemonic(displayElement.getId()) ? 
getMnemoic(displayElement.getId()): displayElement.getId();

if (id == null)
id = facesContext.getViewRoot().createUniqueId();
...

Then a duplicate component will not be created in the render cycle.

[Shale] new Clay replacement symbols






I noticed the new code for the replacement symbols. Gary,  I like how 
you've opened it up to any attribute that is not defined.  Great job on 
this.

It seems that the ClayViewHandler will now have to change to accomodate 
this.  I noticed the following problem today.

If I have 








then in the html




What happens it that the first time the page is rendered, everything works 

properly.  I get an input field with in id of 'foo'.  Then the next time 
the page is rendered I get a Duplicate Id in the Faces Tree error for 
'foo'.  I debugged this a little bit and I noticed that the second time 
the page is rendered 2 HtmlInputText components exist in the Faces Tree 
for 'foo'.  So I am guessing that Clay is doing the replacement on the 
symbol later than it needs to for id.  In which case it would look for a 
component with id @myId instead of foo when deciding whether or not a 
component needs to be created.

Re: how many Form beans

[Martin Gainty]

A couple of gotchas concerning TagLibs

what version JSP container ?
if its 2.0 then consider JSTL 1.1.x tags

On the other hand the struts html tag library outstrips anything available 
from JSTL
But if you want performance steer clear Struts logic: tags as they rank 
slowest of all available Logic Taglibs


If you are concerned about being tied into a TagLib that doesnt accomplish 
everything you want to do go with scriptlets

and wait for JSF Tag Library

Good Luck,

It's really up to you to a large extent. You can have a single form bean 
for an entire application if you want. One for each page that has a form 
on it is probably typical though.


The User Guide section on developing view components [1] may help you get 
a better overall understanding of what your options are.


I'm not sure when you say 'nested tags' if you're referring to the 
'nested' tag library, or if you just mean having tags nested inside other 
tags. Assuming the former, no, you don't necessarily need to use them, 
though they may make some things easier. I'd suggest getting to grips with 
the basics first and then looking at the 'nested' taglib again later, when 
you'll be better able to understand if what it offers applies to what 
you're doing.

Can you just have the two radio buttons and two text fields (rather than 
four text fields)? That would simplify the interface for your users and 
reduce the complexity of the validation a little, since you can just 
mark everything as 'required'.


If that's not an option, you need to do conditional validation to say 
that 'newText1' and 'newText2' are required if 'new' is set; 'oldText1' 
and 'oldText2' are required if 'old' is set (assuming I've understood 
you correctly).


There are a couple of validation rules you can look at for this; the 
first, and older option, is the 'validif' rule. The more modern option 
is the 'validwhen' option. Unfortunately, I can't see where the

Re: how to copy the properties of one Struts form-bean to another?

[Laurie Harper]

And Struts 1.3 will make it much easier to setup your form bean 
declarations in struts-config.xml when you do this :-) But note that 
having a shared form bean and having a common parent class don't achieve 
the same thing.


A shared form bean means having a single instance of a particular bean 
that you can refer to from different contexts and always see the same 
data. Having a superclass only shares the *structure*, not the data; you 
would still need to use a shared bean of some type to get shared data.


In other words, one's not an alternative to the other, they're seperate 
concerns. You can use either or both to achieve different things, but a 
shared parent class doesn't automatically give you shared data.

Yes, I'd think that having a common super class for a set of form classes

If you find yourself copying properties from form to form too much, you
might consider consolidating the forms.

One of my Struts apps uses a single session-scoped form bean across the
entire app. It's a front end for accounting reports, so in this way I'm
able to easily 'remember' the list of accounts and other settings the

and you refresh the page, windown will ask you if you
want to resend the information, if you hit yes, then
the cached user and password information will send to

directly go through your login page, instead just
login action with the cached user information).

Usability Integrators typically will go thru all of a sites features

Use of CSS tags whenever possible and presents the same in all browsers

Well, I guess this is my karma to be the pain in the neck, but you

http://struts.apache.org/images/struts.gif have non-transparent white
background
* Better yet, logos should have transparent backgrounds, especially
considering that they are quite simple and do not require any specific
background. In this case explicit background color is not needed,
which I actually prefer.
* Why "Struts 1.3.x" points to the same page, where ApacheCon ad is located?
* Using as-designed font sizes in my Firefox 1.0.6, the left bar font
sizes are too small, while the main pane fonts are too large. I would
prefer just a tad larger for left nav bar, -1 for main panel text and
-2 for  headers like "Struts @ ApacheCon".   (By the way, is there
any chance to get to ApacheCon for lower admittance price? Or maybe
there is an empty slot for a presentation? :-) )
* The border around topmost  header, the "Struts @ ApacheCon" is
not aligned with top portion of border around left nav bar (You
probably wondering, do I have to be *that* nitpicking?)
* The width of left nav bar is proportional to window widith, which is 
wrong.

* The width of left nav bar is not proportional to font size.
* Page does not seem to have minsize, left nav bar does not have
minsize too; window look ugly when its with is being decreased. Nav
bar items get outside navbar border, common ugliness for
CSS-controlled websites.
* Fonts typefaces. Seems like the page uses default browser settings,
which is usually a serif. I do not have a strong opinion here. Serif
is considered easier to read, but sans serif is considered "more
professional", whatever that means. But I like the appearance of say,
DisplayTag page http://displaytag.sourceforge.net or Java.Net website

It wouldn't surprise me to find that at least 80% of us are in that
same boat :)

I think the real question now is how soon teams will be ready to try
Rich Internet Applications, including Ajax, and what is going to be
the best RIA choice when a Struts Classic team is ready switch.

Components and events are cool. I use them extensively every day. But,
that's not a compelling enough reason to put aside years of stuff that
ain't broke.

Re: new website look

[Ted Husted]

Just to keep things in perspective: The Struts site is not meant to be
business-to-consumer. We are geek-to-geek :)

The primary purpose of the site is to attract new committers to the
project. We don't care about anonymous downloads, or marketshare, or
any of that. We care about working together to create and maintain the
framework that we ourselves want to use to build our very own
applications. So long as the site helps us communicate between
ourselves, and the site helps us attact new committers, then the site
is doing its job.

If someone has an itch to patch the stylesheets, that's great. Never
settle for the best. But, the site is only a means to an end for us,
and it's important to keep that end in mind.

Re: how to copy the properties of one Struts form-bean to another?

[atta-ur rehman]

Hi Starky,

Yes, I'd think that having a common super class for a set of form classes
that all have some common fields should be a good idea. Not only you get
shared fields but also reset() and validate() can be reused in subclasses,
for example.

Hi,

what's the exception?

does your form class has a method getPb()/setPb() and is it non-null for the
current instance of the form?

MockStrutsTestCase problem

[Kanuri, Chand]

Hi,
i am testing my action class using  MockStrutsTestCase.
the properties that are threre directly in the form are getting tested
properly.
but the nested properties(the properties of bean used in action form) are
getting failed

any ideas?

my test case code looks like this

public class PeopleActionTest extends MockStrutsTestCase {
ItemBean pb=new ItemBean();

/**
 * 
 */
public PeopleActionTest() {
super();
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}

/**
 * @param arg0
 */
public PeopleActionTest(String arg0) {
super(arg0);
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}

protected void setUp() throws Exception {
super.setUp();

}

public void tearDown() throws Exception {
super.tearDown();
}

public void testPeopleAction() {
try {
setContextDirectory(new File("WebContent"));
setConfigFile("/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml");
setServletConfigFile("/WEB-INF/web.xml");
setRequestPathInfo("/People");
addRequestParameter("number", "126");
addRequestParameter("pb.sortcode","68945");
actionPerform();
verifyTilesForward("success",
".view.generationDetails");
RequestItem requestItem =
RequestItem
getSession().getAttribute(WebConstants.getRequestItemName());
assertEquals("126", requestItem.getNumber();
assertEquals("68945", requestItem .getItem().getCode());

} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO: handle exception
}

}

}

the Number is tested properly whereas Item sortcode failed

any ideas please let me know

Thank you for your answer!
But if you have a shared form bean, would it also
be an alternative to have a super class form
bean with the shared paramters and the heritaged
subclasses?

Re: difference between setAtttibute and setPatameter

[rajasekhar . cherukuri]

Hi,
There is nothing like request.setParameter(). When ever you submit 
a form (say JSP),  all the controls in the form like textbox, checkbox, 
textarea etc..will be submitted to the Action or Servelt with the names 
given to them and these values can be retrieved through 
request.getParameter("name").  Here the "name" is the name given to each 
control in JSP. On the other hand request.setAttribute() is some thing 
through which the user can explicitly store the required information. For 
example, if you use request.setAttribute("MY_ATT", new Interger(4)) in 
either Action or Servlet, then you can retrieve the value in JSP through 
request.getAttribute("MY_ATT").

Rajasekhar Cherukuri

Is the only way to pass values from action to jsp is
request.setAttribute and then request.getAttribute in jsp???

Re: Problem with request.setAttribute

[rajasekhar . cherukuri]

Hi,
When you use request.setAttribute() in Action, it is the same 
request which goes to JSP also. So, you are able to get the values in JSP 
through request.getAttribute(). But when you use request.setAttribute() in 
JSP and submit the form, then a new request is generated with the values 
that are contained in the current form and that new request erases all the 
previous values. If you want to use these values in the Action also, you 
need to set them to session rather than request.

Rajasekhar Cherukuri

Problems emailing from struts

[C.F. Scheidecker Antunes]

Hello all,

I've been trying to email from my struts application without success.
I've first tried the standard approach wich is to use javax.mail.* 
javax.mail.internet.* classes.

As on O'reilly's Servlet Cookbook.

Then I've tried commons email, also without success.

So at this point I wonder if I need to add something to my classpath 
within my Tomcat5 which is part of my Fedora core box.


I wonder if I could get some advice on that?

I am having exceptions thrown at SecurityFilter but I haven't done 
anything to my app as far as security goes as it is very simple

at this point, just a simple work for school.

Any ideas?

Here's a test action from my last attempt:

import org.apache.commons.mail.*;


public class TestAction extends Action {
  
  
   private void send1Mail(String From, String To, String Subject, 
String Body) {

   try {
   SimpleEmail email = new SimpleEmail();
   email.setHostName("smtp.mail.br ");
   email.addTo(To);
   email.setFrom(From);
   email.setSubject(Subject);
   email.setMsg(Body);
   email.send();
   }
   catch (EmailException e) {
   getServlet().log("Error Mail : "+e.toString());
   }
  
   }


   public ActionForward execute(
   ActionMapping mapping,
   ActionForm form,
   HttpServletRequest request,
   HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {

   response.setContentType("text/html");
   PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
 
  
   String Subject = "Email test ";

   // message to owner.
   String to = "[EMAIL PROTECTED] ";
   String body = "Hello nando,\n\n";
   send1Mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
",to,Subject,body);

   return null;
   }

javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet execution threw an exception
