Re: Best Practices for static content
Can't you use a TilesController-class and manipulate your tiles-attribute depending on some parameter in request scope?. Doing so you only have to declare one action and one tiles-definition. /Andreas Ramadi Pearse wrote: Does anyone have best practices on how to compose or decorate stand-alone static content? It seems overkill to have to modify tile-defs.xml for each new static page I want to add to the website. Is SSI or SiteMesh more appropriate here? By the way, this is to complement a web app which already uses Tiles to compose the data portion of the app. Thanks! __ Discover Yahoo! Have fun online with music videos, cool games, IM and more.

locale, Wrong format string
Hello, I thought I finally hade the format/formatKey thing with bean:write figured out, but when I tried to switch from a en_US locale to a sv I get this exception: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Wrong format string: '#,##0' I've read http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DecimalFormat.html and I ran the code snippet generating format strings for currency, integers etc. and took my swedish format string (which is identical to en_US), it worked nice for my en_US (firefox default language setting) but not when I switched to swedish language settings or in IE with swedish region settings in the control panel. I really need to solve this so any help would be really appreciated. /Andreas - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: locale, Wrong format string
The problem is solved:
After some examination of the source of the bean:write tag i found this:
format = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(locale);
if (formatStrFromResources) {
((DecimalFormat) format).applyLocalizedPattern(
formatString);
} else {
((DecimalFormat) format).applyPattern(formatString);
}
That is, when the format string comes from a resource bundle the
applyLocalizedPattern is used, so I have to make sure that the pattern I
use i localized..

numeric format with bean:write
Hello, is it possible to add zero-padding with format in the bean:write tag?, I have used format with dates before but I can't find any good examples for numeric data.

Re: Multiple tiles layouts for single application
Hello, actually my solution is on page 16 ;)
It's not that much to say about it, the example is quite straight
forward. Just point the definition path to a struts action which will,
based upon some condition, forward to a page or other tile that will be
used as the path for the definition and extended definitions.
So here's some examples of my tiles:
!-- Main --
definition name=com.acme.web.search.tiles.main
path=/search/setupTiles.do
put name=content value=OVERRIDE THIS /
put name=title value=Search available domains /
/definition
!-- Template definition for site layout 1 --
definition name=com.acme.web.search.tiles.main.acme
path=/front/tiles/tiles_front_main.jsp
put name=content value=OVERRIDE THIS /
put name=title value=Search layout 1 /
/definition
!-- Template definition for yr --
definition name=com.acme.web.search.tiles.main.yr
path=/search/tiles/tiles_front_yrse.jsp
put name=content value=OVERRIDE THIS /
put name=title value=Search layout 2 /
/definition
definition name=com.acme.web.search.tiles.search
extends=com.acme.web.search.tiles.main
put name=content value=/search/pages/search.jsp /
/definition
And struts-config
action
path=/setupTiles
type=com.acme.web.search.actions.SetupTilesAction
forward name=acme path=com.nictrade.web.search.tiles.main.acme /
forward name=yr path=com.nictrade.web.search.tiles.main.yr /
/action
And com.acme.web.search.actions.SetupTilesAction
public ActionForward execute( ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response )
{
// Do some conditional logic here to determine layout
return mapping.findForward( yr );
}
Is this the information you wanted?, if so I hope it helps.

Yes, but a tile definition is just a.. tile definition. All my
definitions extends a base tile:
definition name=com.acme.web.search.tiles.main
path=/front/tiles/tiles_front_main.jsp
put name=content value=OVERRIDE THIS /
put name=title value=Search here /
/definition
definition name=com.acme.web.search.tiles.search
extends=com.acme.web.search.tiles.main
put name=content value=/search/pages/search.jsp /
/definition
And my forwards are:
forward name=success path=com.acme.web.search.tiles.search /
forward name=failure path=com.acme.web.search.tiles.error /
So now, if a request has been made to
http://mysite/?layout=layout1 or
whatever it seems like a nice solution not have to change
anything in my
action configuration and instead have a filter/extension of a
controller
indicating which tile definitions to use, is this possible?
or do I have
to add a action-mapping/forward for each new site I want enable this
search functionality?
As I sad before, the main problem as I see it is the input
parameter in
form validation, I guess I could solve it with some action in
the input
parameter instead, but all those solutions feel ugly and
leaves me with
much work if anything is about to change..
Any other ideas? :)

Re: How to have a header tile over many modules?
Hello, I have a similiar configuration for my project, a set of menu links and a login-box in a tile shared between modules. After reading the struts documentation, specifying the property module for html:link should imho solve the problem but I've had no luck with this approach (all i get back with the module parameter is ). So I've practicly hard-coded the links, and with the login-box I run bean:include id=login href=/authorized/loginBox.do / since I use ssl-ext and I need to use a specific struts-config to determine http/https. I would really like a more dynamic and clean solution than the one I have to day, like say: html:link action=menuchoice1 module=module1 html:link action=menuchoice2 module=module1 html:link action=menuchoice3 module=module2 and html:form action=login module=authorized any ideas is appreciated. /Andreas marc wrote: So far so good.

jsp location when using modules
Hello, We are currently refactoring our Web applications into one application using Struts modules so that we can share common resources more easily between the different modules. Now to the problem, we are currently placing all our jsps in /WEB-INF/pages/ but when introducing modules I get 404 for this action: action path=/test forward=/WEB-INF/pages/test/error.jsp / Tomcat searches /test/WEB-INF/pages/test/error.jsp I've read that this behaviour can be overwritten with: controller processorClass=org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesRequestProcessor pagePattern=/WEB-INF/pages/$M$P / But no result.

Re: jsp location when using modules
Hello again, The main reason I wanted to use WEB-INF at first was to protect jsp/xml but this would lead to module contents i two places, static content (images etc) in /modulename and pages in WEB-INF/pages/modulename. After trying some things I have decided, for now, to place each module with all it contents in /modulename and use a filter to protect jsp, xml:s etc from direct access. It feels good to place all resources for a module in one place... What do you guys think of this approach? /Andreas Hubert Rabago wrote: I haven't done this before, but try this: 1. Use the forwardPattern attribute of controller and give it the same value you're giving pagePattern now. 2. Set up a custom ForwardAction. The existing ForwardAction sets contextRelative which skips the use of forwardPattern. For your custom version, copy the code in the existing ForwardAction except don't set contextRelative to true. 3. Change your mappings to: action path=/test type=your.ForwardAction parameter=error.jsp/ It should resolve to /WEB-INF/pages/test/error.jsp where forwardPattern=/WEB-INF/pages/$M$P and the module name is test. Looking at TilesRequestProcessor.processTilesDefinition(), it doesn't look like it prefixes the uri with module names, nor does it use controller.forwardPattern, so if I read it right, it will use the uri you set in your tile definitions. hth, Hubert On 4/14/05, Andreas Toom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, We are currently refactoring our Web applications into one application using Struts modules so that we can share common resources more easily between the different modules.

bean:include + SSL ( + foreign context )
Hello, I have 2 questions (See below for details) 1, Does bean:include work with SSL? if so, how? 2, Does JSTL c:import work with Struts actions? Yesterday after some months of developing on a Struts application it was time to enable SSL. Enabling tomcat with SSL support was no problem and it looked like it would be a sweet ride but out of nowhere this exception pops up: Exception opening resource https://localhost/fragments/fragment_login.jsp: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found The fragment is included with: bean:include id=login page=/fragments/fragment_login.jsp / and then bean:write name=login filter=false/ Includes works fine without SSL. SSL works and I can render the fragment jsp alone without any problems, in fact the whole Struts app works fine with SSL as long as I don't use bean:include. After some googling I find this mailinglist post: http://www.newsarch.com/archive/mailinglist/jakarta/struts/user/msg29088.html with a similar error but no solution. Alternative solutions: I try jsp:include and it works fine, but the problem is that I have another app which will include the login fragment aswell so I need something that can access a foreign context (App B will access fragments from the context of App A) I try JSTL c:import with href=/fragments/fragment_login.jsp and context=/ which in my mind would lead to a http request from App B to App A and the inclusion of the response as a String, but instead I get a action mapping error saying action /login cannot be found, well of course since the action /login is not defined in App B only in App A. How does the c:import work? shouldn't c:import return the content in HTML not in jsp-code (?) for App B to compile in the App B context? So this is what it all sums up to: bean:include cannot include content over SSL ?, jsp:include and JSTL c:import can both include content over SSL, JSTL c:import cannot import content with Struts action references from antoher context??? Any ideas would be really appreciated. /Andreas - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
