load dynamically created files in jsp

2010-05-13 Thread Upasana Sharma
Hi

I have a scenario where i create a temporary dynamic image file from the
database and try to show it on my jsp.
The file url shows the image properly, but when in jsp , my browser says
that "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol
(d) isn't associated with any program"

the url i get is like

D:\myWorkspace\ui\WebContent\images\JavaTemp2261198016333434327.jpg, that is
my struts project folder.

How can i make the image accessible to my jsp.

Re: how to set default focus field in ?

2010-05-13 Thread Zoran Avtarovski
As a simple solution, why not just modify the form tag template and if the
focusElement parameter is set, include a simple javascript block at the
close of the form to set the focus. Just keep in mind that if there are two
forms on a page and both have the focusElement parameter set only the last
will be relevant.

The advantage being you can use javascript code to match your environment ­
jQuery, Dojo, pure javascript, etc.

Re: spring, struts2, convention plugin, how to "wire" an action class

2010-05-13 Thread Denis Cabasson
My best guess is that the Action instance used in the web application is 
not actually loaded from the configuration in your applicationContext, 
but directly by Struts 2 (through the Spring Factory, but still Struts 2).


That mean that you will have a bean named myAction in you application 
context, but that is not the bean that will actually be used by Struts 
to serve your request. Struts will create another instance, which won't 
have any of your configuration. This different instance is then 
autowired by type (defaut behaviour) which means your service 
(configured in your context) gets injected because it has the right type.


I can't actually confirm that behaviour, but that seems like the likely 
explanation. I will be able to double check tomorrow.


To check that, I can recommend 2 things :
* Set the autowiring to be by name, create 2 beans named verbose and 
message, and see how that works
* Leaving the autowiring by type, create 2 instances of your service, 
and my best guess is that Struts will crash, unable to decide between the 2


I think what your are missing is the fact that while struts uses Spring 
to manage the lifecycle of its action, it doesn't use the action defined 
in your application context, but will load its own instances, and 
autowire them.

Hi:

I have been trying to track down a memory leak in my struts 1.3.10 web
app.
I am using tomcat 6.0.26 which has a leak detector button in the manager
app.

After basically gutting my app to a start up page, it occurred to me
that I should
just see if the struts-blank web app has a memory leak. Well, when I
deploy and undeploy
the struts-blank web app and check for memory leaks, it has a memory
leak.

If I do this a couple of times, take a heap dump and use eclipse mat
(memory analysis tool)
plug in, I see several WebAppClassLoaders.  When I look for duplicate
classes I see a bunch
of org.apache.commons.beanutils classes in these WebAppClassLoaders.

I can't really go any farther in characterizing the leak since I don't
understand enough about
classloaders.  This seems like a bug to me.

Any ideas would be appreciated?

You want to be able to directly address it rather than having to search

Re: spring, struts2, convention plugin, how to "wire" an action class

2010-05-13 Thread Jake Vang
yes, i read the documentation for that before posting here too. it
says to "simply" drop in the struts2-spring-plugin-.jar. i
already have that in /WEB-INF/lib. however, towards the end of the
document, they are referencing how to initialize Actions from spring
using struts.xml and applicationContext.xml. since i am using
Annotations and the conventions plugin, i don't think this is what i
am looking for. currently, my struts.xml file is 3 lines only! (minus
the DOCTYPE lines).

there are little but significant differences in how a struts2 based
application behaves using the convention plugin (as opposed to using
the traditional struts.xml file).

i am committed to using the convention plugin + annotations and to
avoid as much as possible configurations in struts.xml. if there is an
example of how to get all this working (struts2 + convention +
annotations + spring), i would be most pleased. thanks.

Jake, the short answer to your problem is : use the struts-spring plugin 
( http://struts.apache.org/2.1.8.1/docs/spring-plugin.html ). Include 
the jar for that plugin in your classpath, and Struts 2 will use Spring

Subject: Re: spring, struts2, convention plugin, how to "wire" an action class

well, there's something strange about struts2 (with convention plugin)
+ spring. if your action has a field representing a service,
MyInjectedService myInjectedService, you just have to define that in
the spring xml file. for example, your Action class looks like the
following.

public class MyAction extends ActionSupport {
  private Service service;

  @Action(value="/dummy")
  public String dummy() { return SUCCESS; }
  public Service getService() { return service; }
  public void setService(Service service) { this.service = service; }
}

in your spring xml file (i.e. applicationContext.xml), you simply
define a bean with the id="service". for example,



that's it; you don't have to do anything else. you don't even have to
explicitly say (using XML) to inject this when you are creating an
instance of MyAction. now when a user accesses /dummy, MyAction will
be created and its service field will actually be injected with what
is specified in the spring xml file.

what irks me or  bothers me is that it is not obvious at the moment
how to simply inject strings or booleans into the Action class. it
should be just as simple.

upon analyzing what i am doing, and in light of what you said, perhaps
i am trying to push some logic into the Action class that shouldn't be
there. perhaps i should push the logic to a service class instead. in
this case, this problem goes away. BUT, the question remains, how can

But I have started doing:

@Autowired

I am not sure if that alters the way Struts2/Spring does it. But it does
make it a bit clearer to read.

 Subject: Re: spring, struts2, convention plugin, how to "wire" an action 
 class

 well, there's something strange about struts2 (with convention plugin)
 + spring. if your action has a field representing a service,
 MyInjectedService myInjectedService, you just have to define that in
 the spring xml file. for example, your Action class looks like the
 following.

 public class MyAction extends ActionSupport {
  private Service service;

 �...@action(value="/dummy")
  public String dummy() { return SUCCESS; }
  public Service getService() { return service; }
  public void setService(Service service) { this.service = service; }
 }

 in your spring xml file (i.e. applicationContext.xml), you simply
 define a bean with the id="service". for example,

 

 that's it; you don't have to do anything else. you don't even have to
 explicitly say (using XML) to inject this when you are creating an
 instance of MyAction. now when a user accesses /dummy, MyAction will
 be created and its service field will actually be injected with what
 is specified in the spring xml file.

 what irks me or  bothers me is that it is not obvious at the moment
 how to simply inject strings or booleans into the Action class. it
 should be just as simple.

 upon analyzing what i am doing, and in light of what you said, perhaps
 i am trying to push some logic into the Action class that shouldn't be
 there. perhaps i should push the logic to a service class instead. in
 this case, this problem goes away. BUT, the question remains, how can
 i use DI with struts2 (convention plugin)  and spring on Action
 classes? or can i not? if i can't, end of story. if i can, how?

how do you do that? here's a couple of ways i have tried that do NOT work.

1. (normal, naive way that works for defining services)

 


2. (in this case, we do not use the id attribute, but the name attribute)

 


i've also tried configuring struts.properties to have the
ObjectFactory use "spring" and this does not help.

If you want Spring to create your action class (as opposed to Struts
creating them) then you need to define your action in the
applicationContext.xml file.

Thanks for all the replies so far folks.

Following up on that thought process, if I use an interceptor then is there
any difference/tradeoff/efficiency gain or loss from stuffing the object in
question onto the Value Stack instead of dropping it into the request or the
session? I guess that "explicitness" is what you gain from the
request/session route?

Later,

Andy

by the way, which package is the @Autowired annotation in? using

Nope, no they are not in the xml for me. I use the @Service/@Repository

well, there's something strange about struts2 (with convention plugin)
+ spring. if your action has a field representing a service,
MyInjectedService myInjectedService, you just have to define that in
the spring xml file. for example, your Action class looks like the
following.

public class MyAction extends ActionSupport {
 private Service service;

 @Action(value="/dummy")
 public String dummy() { return SUCCESS; }
 public Service getService() { return service; }
 public void setService(Service service) { this.service = service; }
}

in your spring xml file (i.e. applicationContext.xml), you simply
define a bean with the id="service". for example,



that's it; you don't have to do anything else. you don't even have to
explicitly say (using XML) to inject this when you are creating an
instance of MyAction. now when a user accesses /dummy, MyAction will
be created and its service field will actually be injected with what
is specified in the spring xml file.

what irks me or  bothers me is that it is not obvious at the moment
how to simply inject strings or booleans into the Action class. it
should be just as simple.

upon analyzing what i am doing, and in light of what you said, perhaps
i am trying to push some logic into the Action class that shouldn't be
there. perhaps i should push the logic to a service class instead. in
this case, this problem goes away. BUT, the question remains, how can
i use DI with struts2 (convention plugin)  and spring on Action
classes? or can i not? if i can't, end of story. if i can, how?

RE: spring, struts2, convention plugin, how to "wire" an action class

2010-05-13 Thread James Cook
Hmm. I use the same combo.

I found at some point I could jsut do

public class MyAction extends ActionSupport {

private MyInjectedService service 

etc etc

But I have started doing:

public class MyAction extends ActionSupport {

@Autowired
private MyInjectedService service

I am not sure if that alters the way Struts2/Spring does it. But it does
make it a bit clearer to read.

Subject: spring, struts2, convention plugin, how to "wire" an action
class

i am using struts 2.1.8.1 and the convention plugin. i am also using
spring for dependency injections (DI). my question is if it is
possible to to use struts2 + convention plugin with spring for DI on
my Action classes? i have searched  the internet but only seen
examples using struts 1 + spring for DI on Action classes. the
convention plugin makes life simpler (no XML), but also, partially
because of little documentation, makes it uneasy to do certain things.
i wonder if this is part of the reason why DI on Action classes using
spring + struts is not obvious for me.

Here's a simple code. This is my action class.

public class SpringWiringAction extends ActionSupport {
 private String message = "no dependency injection";

 @Action(value="/spring-wiring")
 public String springWiring() {
  return SUCCESS;
 }

 public String getMessage() { return message; }
 public void setMessage(String message) { this.message = message; }
}

My "view" or the JSP page corresponding to the Action is:
/webapp/WEB-INF/content/spring-wiring-success.jsp.

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<%...@taglib uri="/struts-tags" prefix="s" %>

 Test Spring Wiring
 
 
 


My web.xml is setup according to
http://struts.apache.org/2.0.14/docs/struts-2-spring-2-jpa-ajax.html.

My spring XML file (/webapp/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml) is defined
as following.

...

 

...

 


My /webapp/WEB-INF/applicationContext.properties file then has this
content.

message=dependency inject success

when i start up tomcat 6, everything starts up correctly and there are
no complaints. however, when i go to
http://localhost/webapp/spring-wiring, the message that gets displayed
is "no dependency injection".

is there something that i am missing using spring + struts2 (with the
convention plugin) to use DI on Actions?
