RE: Struts2 on Websphere portal 6.1.0.0

2010-04-19 Thread Griffith, Michael *
The problem is the URI parameter in your display tag table. This is how
DT invokes the action/HTTP request that originally got the request for
the table in the table. It should be something like:
requestURI="search.action" where the value is the action of the page.

Subject: Re: Struts2 on Websphere portal 6.1.0.0


I am facing an issue with Struts 2 portlet which uses Display Tag. I
have implemented a code to display a list using Display Table and also
implemented Sorting option. It is working fine with IBM WAS 7.0 and the
same code is not working with IBM Portal Server 6.1

It is displaying the data, but when i click on the pagination link
(First, Last, Next..) and the column header (to sort) then i am getting
page can not be found.

I have even mentioned page cotext, but still i am facing this issue. I
have also added the display tag portlet support jar
(displaytag-portlet-1.2.jar) along with displaytag-1.2.jar and its
supporting jars.






I have a doubt in the requestURI parameter... what exactly i should give
to that parameter. I have also used requestURIContext as well, but no
improvement.

Your model validation should work, if you are using the same model in different 
actions. Maybe the name is wrong -> -validation.xml?

Maybe I didn't express my problem correctly. The @SkipValidation annotation

I want to reuse the field validations in -validator.xml in two 
different Action classes in two different packages and different namespaces. Is

Hello all, 
 
I am not clear on how to reuse a field validator that doesn't share a
common package or action/alias.  I have package
 
...struts.admin/
...struts/application/

Create a ... and put it in there? Depends on what

It would be a nice feature to have as a struts tag to allow other tags
or HTML into the form without mucking about with the template.

Something like:

I don't think there is a really great way to do it. If you really want
to get a solid handle on it, look through
template/xhtml/controlheader*.ftl and template/xhtml/controlfooter*.ftl
do. To summarize it, they create a two-column row in the table :)

I think you can pretty easily add your element by doing - your stuff

But, if it doesn't work, just take a look at the generated HTML, it'll
probably be pretty obvious what you need to change.

If you are really looking to build something reusable, then try to build
a tag out of it. It's easier than it sounds. IMO, if this is for one
page, just add the HTML. If you are planning on making something like
this for each form in your app, then build a tag out of it.

Which gets you half way there.  It gets you the Map.  To get the value
you want from it, just call it's get method:



The %{} are often left out by people, but they're critical.  That's what
says "this is an OGNL expression".  Musachy's response illustrates the
potential confusion as to what EL you're using when it's not specified.

Thanks for the suggestion, I changed the validator to read as:

fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinColumn(name = "STATUS")
@FieldExpressionValidator(message = "Default message",
key="validate.status", expression = "status != null")
public Status getStatus() {

return status;

}

The validation is applied, but no message is displayed.  With:
@ExpressionValidator(message = "Default message", key="validate.status",
expression = "status != null")

The validation is applied and the validation message appears at the top
of my page where I have an  tag. 

Is there something else I need to do to make the
FieldExpressionValidator work?

You'd probably need a @FieldExpressionValidator in order for it to be
associated with a field, but this is just a guess.

IIRC its intent is to prevent multiple validation errors for the same
field.

Dave, 

Thanks for the reply. 

I've had some success...tinkering...  

The following validation annotation seems to work:
 
@ManyToOne(cascade = {CascadeType.PERSIST, CascadeType.MERGE},
fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinColumn(name = "STATUS")
@ExpressionValidator(message = "Default message", key="validate.status",
expression = "status != null" )
public Status getStatus() {
return status;
}

However, the validation message appears in  block, not
nicely next to the field that failed validation as does the other
validators. 

I might have expected this if I had specified shortCircut=true, but I
don't. I'm not really sure what the shortCircuit flag is supposed to do.


Is there a way to make the validator work as the @RequiredString
validator where the message appears above the label?  Could this be a
bug?
 
Again, thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

My first assumption would be that you'd need to have a custom validator,
depending on how Status objects are initialized/created. AFAIK
"required" will only check for nullness.

I'm not sure if a Status object will be created if no status properties
are set, but if it is, then it probably won't work with a simple
"required". If any status properties are set then it definitely
won't--empty string fields aren't null; they're blank.

I'm a little surprised "required" works with your textfields, since
strings normally need a "requiredstring" validator to function properly.

RE: Required field only works with text fields?

2009-03-17 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Can anyone help me with this?

By adding the @RequiredField annotation to the relationship field
(status in my example below) the form did not submit, which is good
because the status had not been specified from the list. However, the
form did not present a message too the user saying why the form
submission failed.  I have the field annotated as:


@ManyToOne(cascade = {CascadeType.PERSIST, CascadeType.MERGE},
fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinColumn(name = "STATUS")
@RequiredFieldValidator(message="Validation
Error",key="validate.notEmpty")
public Status getStatus() {
return status;
} 

Any reply would be appreciated.

Best Regards,

MG

Ok, So I am being a bone-head.  

When I added the @RequiredStringValidator to the model, the validation
is in sync with what is being required on the form. That makes sense to
me, but... 

How are relationships handled? I have a form control as such:



And the relationship is being managed via a JPA @ManyToOne(cascade =
{CascadeType.PERSIST, CascadeType.MERGE},
fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinColumn(name = "STATUS")
public Status getStatus() {

What sort of annotation should I use to validate the user selected an
item from the list?

Required field only works with text fields?

2009-03-13 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hi all, 
 
I just noticed that the only required field validations that seem to be
working in my form are text field validations. 
 
Any HTML tag that renders a list, check box or radio button doesn't
validate, even though the template shows the field as required. 
 
In other words, this tag:


Shows a radio button with the "*" required indicator, but the form is
allowed to be submitted without a button selected, which of course
breaks my request/response cycle...  

Do I need to do something special to make the required non-text inputs
to behave as I expect?

Any help is appreciated.

Best Regards,

Check Field Value in list using Annotation/Validation?

2009-03-13 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hello all, 
 
Is it possible to check a field value against a list using the
@ConditionalVisitorFieldValidator annotation?
 
I'm thinking of something like this:

@Column(name="VENDOR_TYPE", nullable=false)
@ConditionalVisitorFieldValidator (expression="vendorType == 'COTS'&&
vendorType == 'GOTS' && vendorType == 'MOTS'", key="invalid.vendortype")
public String getVendorType() {
return vendorType;
}

Is there a better way to handle this type of validation?

Thanks in advance, 

MG

RE: Out of date documentation?

One solution is to turn down the volume on the logger for OGNL, but that
hardly seems like the right idea. 

I've temporarily solved the problem by setting the logging level to
ERROR, but I'd be interested in knowing how this should really work if
someone knows the answer.

Ok, here's what is happening... 

If I don't try to ignore the DisplayTag parameters, I get:

The interceptor doesn't seemt to allow any desireable parameters (such

Surely I'm not the only person using DisplayTag with Struts 2? ;-) Can

RE: Struts2.1.6 & Tiles 2.1.

2009-02-10 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Jaarthy, 

It looks like your  tag is trying to point to a tile, vs. an
action that returns the tile result. 

Here's an example:







list-project.panel

RE: Out of date documentation?

2009-02-10 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Ok, here's what is happening... 

If I don't try to ignore the DisplayTag parameters, I get:
17:23:58,833 INFO  [STDOUT] WARN - CommonsLogger.warn(49) | Error
setting value
ognl.InappropriateExpressionException: Inappropriate OGNL expression: (d
- 1341904) - p
at ognl.SimpleNode.setValueBody(SimpleNode.java:257)

If I configure my action is configured as such:

link-project.panel
P

dojo\..*,^struts\..*,d-\..*

 

The interceptor doesn't seemt to allow any desireable parameters (such
as the configured selectedType param) to pass.

Surely I'm not the only person using DisplayTag with Struts 2? ;-) Can
anyone point out what's wrong with this picture? 

Thanks in advance, 

MG

It looked like the only place you wanted to use this substitution was in
a result tag.  I didn't notice what value it was you wanted until now.

The action is on top of the value stack when that's evaluated, and there
should be some way to get to that info from there...so if you make your
BaseAction class include a getNamespace() method that does the right
thing, you can say %{namespace} in the struts.xml like you asked.

I've got to sign off, so I'm not providing the magic incantation to get
this from the action, but I bet there's some way to get it.  I don't see
it right now, but I thought there used to be an ActionMappingAware
interface, for example...

Hi, 
 
I don't think I fully understand OGNL and I need some help with an
expression...
 
I have a param that I am passing to an action.  the parameter is called
selectedType, and it has a getter and setter on the action. It is
getting set correctly. When I try to evaluate the expression using the
 tag, it never evaluates correctly.  The action parameter is as
follows;
 
./component/new.action?selectedType=C
 
I've tried the following expressions


... Do work



... Do work



... Do work


None of which seem to work.  Can someone clear this up?

The converters are created by the internal IOC container, so the Spring
beans wont be injected. A "hack" I can think of is to add something like
this to the converter:

@Inject(StrutsConstants.STRUTS_OBJECTFACTORY)
public void setObjectFactory(ObjectFactory factory) {
   //save the factory for later
}

that factory will be the Spring object factory, which you can use to
lookup the beans that you need. Not much of "inversion of control" but
it should work.

How can you tell? This is handed by the plug-in, right? From my
struts.properties file:

struts.objectFactory = spring
struts.objectFactory.spring.autoWire = name
struts.objectFactory.spring.useClassCache = true

Are the converters created by the object factory? if not, then it will
not work.

TypeConverter needs Spring Bean

2009-02-05 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hello everyone, 

I have a type converter that needs to get access to my Spring managed
service so it can do a DB lookup. I was under the impression that the
struts-spring plug-in handled DI for the converter. However, when the
convertFromString method tries to access the service called
statusService, I get a NPE. What am I doing wrong?

Any reply would be appreciated,

Cheers!
MG

public class StatusTypeConverter extends StrutsTypeConverter {

StatusService statusService;

@Override
public Object convertFromString(Map context, String[] values,
Class toClass) {
Status retVal = null;
if (values != null && values.length > 0 && values[0] !=
null
&& values[0].length() > 0) {
String[] ids = (String[]) values;
Integer id = new Integer(ids[0]);
retVal = statusService.getStatus(id);  // NPE
thrown here!!
}
return retVal;

}

@Override
public String convertToString(Map arg0, Object object) {
String retVal = "";
if (object instanceof Status) {
Status s = (Status) object;
retVal = s.getDescription();
}
return retVal;
}

public void setStatusService(StatusService statusService) {
this.statusService = statusService;
}

Assuming Struts2, the s:action tag can only execute an action and 
execute where that result can be included within the current 
outputstream (eg. including a JSP fragment).

I redirect result makes no sense in this context as the output stream is

already open and written to.

I can confirm that a Tiles result (Struts2 result of type tiles) does 
not work in this context either as it throws an exception that the 
outputstream has already been opened (or something like that; I can't 
recall exactly but it's in JIRA somewhere under the Tiles2 plugin).

In cases where I've needed this behaviour I've referenced the JSP 
instead of a Tile.

Hope that helps,

redirect does not work with Tiles.

2008-08-07 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hello All, 

 

I cannot make  result go to a new page.  Chaining the result
does work, but the response shows my entire tile set showing up in the
inside tile, which is not what I want either.

 

Here is my scenario:

 

I have a JSP that includes a struts action as such...  

 

]--- begin edit.jsp ---[

 



 

]--- end edit.jsp ---[

 

This JSP is a tile, (using Tiles 2) and the action form maps to an
action like this:

...



 



document

/WEB-INF/xsl/question.xsl





list

/respond



 



 

The form action renders an html fragment, using XML/XSL result type, but
it is nested inside of a tiled result.  The form basically is like a
questionnaire wizard that presents an ordered list of questions and
allows a user to answer them, moving forward and back in the sequence.
In my ResponseForm action class I look for a parameter passed via the
http post, and if the parameter is "Quit" or "Finish" I want to execute
my finish result, and redirect to the list where I started.  

 

ResponseForm.execute

...

 

} else if (method != null && (method.equalsIgnoreCase("Quit") ||

method.equalsIgnoreCase("Finish"))) {

 

return "finish";

}

...

 

This does not work - and it doesn't throw any exceptions.  If I try to
use the result type chain instead of redirect-action, I am directed back
to the list, but the entire action (including the outermost tiles) show
up in the body tile - so it's like the website shows an entire HTML
response in the body tile, which is not correct either.

 

Any insight as to how to overcome this would be much appreciated...

 

Best regards,

 

Michael Griffith

Spring Struts Plugin workaround for Session Scoped Beans

2008-04-24 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hi,

 

>From the docs, I found this link/note: To use session-scoped components
with Spring and Struts, see the Spring Session Components Workarounds
analysis.  That led to confluence page that doesn't yet exist. I am
using a session scoped spring bean in a struts 2 action, and it seems to
be working OK, but is there something I might be missing?

 

My bean is defined as such:

 







 

I have the RequestContextListener listener declared as per the Spring
documentation as well.  I'm just wondering what the work around
documentation was supposed to be?

 

Also, if I have a method getValueObject() on my action that returns a
model, how do I get Spring to use that method to inject my service on
the constructor?  I want something like:

...

QuestionSequenceImpl( ValueObject vo ){ 

   this.vo= vo;

}

 

Thanks in advance!

RE: Clarification on Type Conversion?

2008-04-18 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Martin, 

First of all, thanks for the reply.  The full action is listed below:

I guess what is not clear to me is whether I need to create a
StrutsTypeConverter to convert the selected item from the list back to a
model. 

As I have been thrashing about trying to get this to work, I have tried
creating a converter to convert the id passed back to an object...

public class StatusConverter extends StrutsTypeConverter {

   private static final Log _log =
LogFactory.getLog(StatusConverter.class);

@Override
public Object convertFromString(Map context, String[] values,
Class toClass) {

if (values.length > 0 && values[0] != null &&
values[0].trim().length() > 0) {
Status status= new Status();
status.setId(new Integer(values[0]));
return status;
}
return null;
}

@Override
public String convertToString(Map context, Object status) {
if (status instanceof Status) {
return ((Status)status).getId().toString();
}
return "";
}

}

This seems to work, but only the ID is passed to the converter, which
means I have to look up the reference to the Status object in the
database. This just feels as if I am going down the wrong path.  Again,
below is my action. Thanks for any suggestions you might have.

Jukka, 

First of all, thanks for the reply. I don't think I made my question clear 
enough. The form isn't editing the model/object called Status, its editing a 
model on which Status is an associated object. Such as in this example, where I 
have a class named Call, that has a field called Status, which is a model 
object.

CallStatus

name="status" means that you are trying to pass the status object itself as
a parameter to a method setStatus. That is not possible--you need to pass
the id of the status if you want to indicate which status the user chose,
like this for example:


You also need setId method in the action you submit the form to.

Clarification on Type Conversion?

2008-04-18 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hello All, 

 

I am having a problem with Struts 2 form submission, because I believe a
related  field is not being converted correctly.  I have read
the documentation at: http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/select.html and
http://struts.apache.org/2.0.11.1/docs/type-conversion.html  It is my
understanding that I should not need to provide any custom converter,
that this conversion should be automatic.  When I submit the form, I
receive the error: Invalid field value for field "status".

 

Here is the setup:

 

I have a form with a  field:



 

The action has the method:

 

public List getStatusList(){

return statusService.findAll();

}

 

The model object that status is mapped to looks like this:

 

@Entity

@Table(name="STATUS")

@Validation

public class Status implements Identifiable, Serializable {

 

private static final long serialVersionUID =
-8017026685032314796L;

private Integer id;

private String description;

 

@Id

@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)

@Column(name = "ID", unique = true, nullable= false)

public Integer getId() {

return id;

}



public void setId(Integer id){

this.id= id;

}

 

@Column(name="DESCRIPTION", nullable= false)

public String getDescription() {

return description;

}

 

@RequiredStringValidator(message="Validation Error",
key="validate.notEmpty", trim=true)

public void setDescription(String description) {

this.description = description;

}

 

I tried creating a mapping properties file called
actionName-conversion.properties:

KeyProperty_StatusList=id

Element_StatusList=Status

CreateIfNull_statusList=true

 

No avail.  I'm sure my problem is obvious, but I can't see it. Any help
or suggestions would be much appreciated...

 

Thanks in advance!

A Java Web Application that uses Apache Struts 2 framework can be
written or

I think you need to rephrase your question.  Apache Struts 2 is a
specific
Java Web Application framework technology and Java Web Application is
the
more general and generic term I think you meant to say. In terms of Web
Hosting, you would be interested in Web Hosting Providers that allows
deployment of Java Web Applications.

I hope that helps you to narrow your search.

The techniques shown in the earlier examples would work equally well in 
the byte stream example. How you determine the source of the data to 
send back to the browser is really up to you.

- configure it statically in struts-config.xml (as per the first two 
exxamples

- take it from a request parameter

- derive it from some other user or request data

Hi Michael

Thanks for your answer.

Yes, it put it under "WEB-INF/lib/" so it's packaged to the war file and

can
be resolved.

I did not include that line because i read, that this is the default
setting
Spring uses when no contextConfigLocation parameter is defined. I just
added
it but it didn't change anything as far as i see.

Thanks again for your help.

Hi all 

first i'd like to thank all of you that have given me valuable feedback
to
my question. 

Following the answers from Dave and Jeromy i decided to go the "hard"
way
with Spring and DI. After reading some manuals (thanks to GF, good
reading)
i managed to load the Spring ContextLoaderListener and even define an
POJO
bean that serves as my BusinessLogicService. From the Tomcat logs i can
see
that an instance of that Service is created. 

As far as i read/unterstood, i now would only have to create a setter
method
on my Action class and Spring then would automatically inject the
related
dependcy to my Action class. So far, this doesn't seem to work, so i
guess,
i must be missing something.

My applicationContext.xml looks quite simple (and seems to work, since
the
DispatcherService is created on startup):

---

http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd";>



---

The Struts config looks like:

---

http://struts.apache.org/dtds/struts-2.0.dtd";>






/CustomerLogin.jsp
/CustomerChat.jsp



/CustomerLogin.jsp
/CustomerLogin.jsp



/CustomerChat.jsp






---

So i guess, i must be missing something. Is there a way i would have to
tell
Spring which Action classes to inject?

Thanks a lot for your help
Frank

RE: How can I combine a result (tiles + xslt)?

2008-03-12 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Antonio, 

First of all, I'm not saying you are wrong about XSLT closing the result
stream -- I don't have enough knowledge to comment on that problem,
however...

Here's what I did to test this.  I copied the source for XSLTResult to a
new class, and added a boolean parameter to the result called flush.  In
my struts.xml file, I set the parameter to false (or let it default) and
put an if statement around the out.close() method in XSLTResult.execute,
line 357.
So the code looks like this:

if( getFlush() ){
LOG.debug("Flushing output stream");
out.close(); // ...and flush...
}

Sure enough, if the flag is true, the stream is closed and the exception
occurs. If the flag is false, and the close() gets stepped over, the
stream is left open and the remainder of the tiles render.

The XSLTResult class isn't really well structured to act as a
superclass, so unfortunately, in order to get this to work I have to
copy the class to a new class and add this implementation.  

I would argue this is a bug in XSLTResult.

Thanks for your comments and support.

I don't think it is a bug of XSLTResult, since it "closes" (not simply
"flushes") the stream. The fact that the parser closes the stream is in
the
XML specification (yeah, this is *stupid* but they did it).
Anyway probably XSLTResult needs a workaround for this
feature since we cannot change the specifications.

Mmm... It reminds me a thing.
When processing an XML file via a XML parser, the parser closes the
stream
at the end!
To work around this problem, I had to wrap the original InputStream into
an
object that overrides the "close" method, not closing the stream.

Thanks for your help. For some reason, it didn't register to me that the
TILES_2_0_X branch would be the 2.0.6 branch... duh.

I downloaded the Tiles 2.0.X source and built the 2.0.6 snapshot. 
It did not fix the IO Stream error previously reported, so I am unsure
if the issue is related. 

I believe (maybe incorrectly so) that the problem is caused by the

RE: How can I combine a result (tiles + xslt)?

Hi all, 

I checked out the current branch from the Tiles SVN repository:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tiles/framework/trunk/ and built it.
Version is 2.1.0-SNAPSHOT.  This appears to be incompatible with the
Struts2Tiles plugin?  Has anyone run into this?  The error is:
Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of
class org.apache.struts2.tiles.StrutsTilesListener
java.lang.IllegalStateException: RendererFactory not specified

I tried adding additional Tiles configuration information as specified
at: http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/tiles-plugin.html and
http://tiles.apache.org/tutorial/configuration.html using the
context-param and listener, but with the same error. This exception is
not thrown with Tiles 2.0.5.

I did not see a tag for tiles 2.0.6 in the SVN tree, where can I get the
tiles-2.0.6-snapshot?

Any help would be appreciated!

RE: How can I combine a result (tiles + xslt)?

2008-03-07 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Dave, 

I did. I will try both, easy path first. I'll let you know what I find
so that you can close the JIRA incident I opened. I did look at the JIRA
ticket Antonio posted, and it seems likely that is the problem.

Thanks to all that replied, especially all the extra effort that Martin
went to.

Cheers!

Did you see Antonio's post about how it's probably a bug in Tiles?!

Seems like it would be quite a bit easier to try his idea than all this.

Hi all, 

I've specified on both the struts tag, and the tiles include
flush="false"

.. template ...


. tile ...


Same result. Does anyone have any other ideas on what I can do to
prevent this? Any tile that is supposed to be rendered after the body
(ie the footer) is not rendered because the stream is closed.

Any help would be much appreciated...

RE: DispatchAction nonexisting method

2008-03-06 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hi Edward, 

 

Create a method for handling "all the rest" or unspecified actions, and
delegate to your view:

 

protected ActionForward unspecified(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm
form,

HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)

throws Exception {

 

return getView(mapping, form, request,
response);

}

Subject: DispatchAction nonexisting method

 

Hi all,

 

First, this is not a Struts 2 question

And thanks to anyone who reads below...

 

I was wondering how other's handled this problem with the
org.apache.struts.actions.DispatchAction in Struts 1.3.9.

 

I have an action that calls a data service that is to be presented to
the user in numerous formats by using DispatchAction.  

*   View
*   XLS
*   PDF

 

As they all utilizes a common data service, I thought that this would be
an excellent candidate for DispatchAction to centralize the call into
one action.

Say the parameter used was named "export", so my action mapping looks
like,

 



  



 

UserOrders extends DispatchAction and all this is working fine.

 

I implement the following methods.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

All is well, until...

http://localhost:8080/myapp/UserOrders.do?export=unnamedmethod

 

 

When DispatchAction attempts to find the unnamedmethod, it throws a
NoSuchMethodException prior to calling any method.  Our app is
configured to show a 500 page, and I know that I could use the
 and create an exception handler but the
NoSuchMethodException is such a generic exception.  Wrapping the
exception is not really an option as it is thrown by DispatchAction. 

 

Has anyone thought of a good way for DispatchAction to handle an unnamed
method??  

 

Ed

Hi Wes,

Thanks for the reply. The s:action tag seems to work.  I have a tiles
action that is the actual URL that the user would navigate to, and in
the JSP fragment that is the body tile, I am using the s:action to
invoke the XSLT action and return the HTML fragment for the body.

Thanks so much for pointing this out, I was not aware of this tag.

Cheers!

Hi Wes,

Thanks for the reply. The s:action tag seems to work.  I have a tiles
action that is the actual URL that the user would navigate to, and in
the JSP fragment that is the body tile, I am using the s:action to
invoke the XSLT action and return the HTML fragment for the body.

Thanks so much for pointing this out, I was not aware of this tag.

Cheers!

How can I combine a result (tiles + xslt)?

2008-03-05 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hi, 

 

Can anyone advise me on the best way to approach this problem?  I have a
Struts2 application using Tiles 2 for UI.  I have a page where the body
of my tiles composition needs to be generated dynamically from XSLT.  I
want to transform XML into HTML tags including a form and inputs, which
would be dynamically generated from my action class.

 

I checked out the XSLT result type, but if I go that route, it appears I
can't use a tiles definition. What I am looking for is something like 

-- tile ---

| x

| x

| tile

|   x

| x

| x

-- tile ---

 

Is this a good application for writing my own interceptor for? 

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

RE: AjaxTag 1.3 support?

Musachy, 

This is the actual response from the action when I invoke it from the
browser:

"{\"questions\":{\"420\":\"Is your Java Application a ME, SE or EE
application?\",\"440\":\"If your Java Application is an SE application

I am building the JSON string and returning it from the action...
private static final Character QUOTE= '"';
private static final String DELIM= ":";
private static final String COMMA=",";
private static final String OPEN_BRACE="{";
private static final String CLOSE_BRACE="}";

StrinBuffer sb= new StringBuffer();
StringBuffer sb= new StringBuffer();

sb.append(OPEN_BRACE).append(QUOTE).append("questions").append(QUOTE);
sb.append(DELIM).append(OPEN_BRACE);
for (Question question : list) {

sb.append(QUOTE).append(question.getId().toString()).append(QUOTE).appen
d(DELIM).append(QUOTE).append(question.getText()).append(QUOTE).append(C

}

The String actually looks like this before its serialized by the json

Huh? That can't be right... 

First of all, the document says it wraps the JSON result in /* ... */
comments, it doesn't say anything about escaping quotes.

Second, the default value is false ;-)  Adding this to the result
configuration did nothing to my result.  This seems like a bug.

RE: AjaxTag 1.3 support?

2008-02-05 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Well, to answer my own question -- the answer is no. The JSON result
serialization process escapes quotation marks, so my response that
looked like this before serialization:

{"questions":{"420":"Is your Java Application a ME, SE or EE
application?","440":"If your Java Application is an SE application does
it use Java Web Start?","450":"If your Java Application is a Java Web
Application, list the application server used for
production","490":"List any Java Web Services Technologies
Used","500":"List any Java Web Application Technologies Used for
presentation","510":"List any Java EE Technologies used in your
application"}}

Looks like this after serialization:

"{\"questions\":{\"420\":\"Is your Java Application a ME, SE or EE
application?\",\"440\":\"If your Java Application is an SE application
does it use Java Web Start?\",\"450\":\"If your Java Application is a
Java Web Application, list the application server used for
production\",\"490\":\"List any Java Web Services Technologies
Used\",\"500\":\"List any Java Web Application Technologies Used for
presentation\",\"510\":\"List any Java EE Technologies used in your
application\"}}"

Making it unrecognizable to the autocompleter. This is pretty
frustrating to me. Maybe I am expecting this to do something that it was
never designed to do. My end goal was to be able to evaluate the ID of
the question that the user selected from the autocompleter.  

I'm giving up this path and looking elsewhere.  Thanks to everyone that
replied to my question and tried to help me.

Musachy, 

I can't seem to create the right blend of Entity objects/list/maps to
allow the JSON plug in to serialize this response for me. If I create
the string below using a loop, can I return it from the JSON plug in
without the plug in doing anything further to it?  

In other words, does the plug in look at what it is trying to serialize
and say, "Hey this is already valid JSON, I don't need to do anything to
it..." or will it try to add additional info to the string returned?

I'm guessing the shortest path for me is to just create the string in my
own serialization loop, but I don't want to confuse the plug in -- if
that makes any sense.

RE: AjaxTag 1.3 support?

2008-02-05 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Musachy, 

I can't seem to create the right blend of Entity objects/list/maps to
allow the JSON plug in to serialize this response for me. If I create
the string below using a loop, can I return it from the JSON plug in
without the plug in doing anything further to it?  

In other words, does the plug in look at what it is trying to serialize
and say, "Hey this is already valid JSON, I don't need to do anything to
it..." or will it try to add additional info to the string returned?

I'm guessing the shortest path for me is to just create the string in my
own serialization loop, but I don't want to confuse the plug in -- if
that makes any sense.

Dave, 

I think the bigger problem is the JSON that is returned, while it may be
valid, it not in the right structure expected. I should be generating
JSON like this:

{"questions":{"420":"Is your Java Application a ME, SE or EE
application?","440":"If your Java Application is an SE application does
it use Java Web Start?"}}

The [] brackets seem to be ignored by the parser.

Dave, 

Check out this JSON parser: http://braincast.nl/samples/jsoneditor/
Paste in the snippet below and it parses fine. BTW, the brackets are
returned from the response. Without the brackets, the snippet doesn't
seem to be correct.

[{"questions":{"420":"Is your Java Application a ME, SE or EE
application?"}},{"questions":{"440":"If your Java Application is an SE
application does it use Java Web Start?"}},{"questions":{"450":"If your
Java Application is a Java Web Application, list the application server
used for production"}},{"questions":{"490":"List any Java Web Services
Technologies Used"}},{"questions":{"500":"List any Java Web Application
Technologies Used for presentation"}},{"questions":{"510":"List any Java

Thanks for your many replies... Does this JSON look like the right
format? As far as I can tell, it matches your snippet below -- but I get
the same dojo parting error.

[{"questions":{"420":"Is your Java Application a ME, SE or EE
application?"}},{"questions":{"440":"If your Java Application is an SE

The rule to use a map (simplest one) was added on 2.1, on 2.0.x the
easiest way to generate the json is to have an object with a map field
that matches the name of "dataFieldName" in the autocompleter tag:

class QuestionJson {
  private Map questions;
  
}

public QuestionJson getQuestionJson() {
  Question q= ... [from my list]
   Map m = new HaswhMap();
   m.put("Key1", q.getQuestion1());
   m.put("Key2", q.getQuestion2());
   return new QuestionJson(m);
}



that will generate something like:

{
  "questions": {
 "Key1" : "Question 1",
 "Key2" : "Question 2",
  }
}

//that's the idea, but I typed out of what I remember which is often not
good :)

RE: AjaxTag 1.3 support?

2008-02-04 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Musachy, 

Ok, I had a parameter set in the JSON plugin, that I think was effecting
the serialization (root) ...

I removed it and now my JSON looks like this:

[JSON]{"question":[{"text":"Is your Java Application a ME, SE or EE
application?","id":"420"},{"text":"If your Java Application is an SE
application does it use Java Web Start?","id":"440"},{"text":"If your
Java Application is a Java Web Application, list the application server
used for production","id":"450"},{"text":"List any Java Web Services
Technologies Used","id":"490"},{"text":"List any Java Web Application
Technologies Used for presentation","id":"500"},{"text":"List any Java
EE Technologies used in your application","id":"510"}]}

My autocompleter looks like this:


And I am still getting the JSON Parsing error: FATAL exception raised:
TypeError: Value undefined (result of expression
this.data[x][0].toLowerCase) is not object.
 
What am I doing wrong?

RE: AjaxTag 1.3 support?

2008-02-04 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Musachy, 

I'm still not getting it... 
I am now serializing a list of maps with the entity id and text I
want... 

Map m= new HashMap();
Question q= ... [from my list]
m.put("id", q.getId().toString());
m.put("text", q.getText());
newList.add(m);

And my JSON result looks:

[JSON][{"text":"Is your Java Application a ME, SE or EE
application?","id":"420"},{"text":"If your Java Application is an SE
application does it use Java Web Start?","id":"440"},{"text":"If your
Java Application is a Java Web Application, list the application server
used for production","id":"450"},{"text":"List any Java Web Services
Technologies Used","id":"490"},{"text":"List any Java Web Application
Technologies Used for presentation","id":"500"},{"text":"List any Java
EE Technologies used in your application","id":"510"}]

I added the @JSON annotation as such:

@JSON(name="question")
public List> getNewList(){
return newList;
}

But it appears to be ignored.

How can I produce?

Musachy,

I must have missed your point. Isn't the idea of using the JSON plug-in
so you don't have to iterate and create the list? If I have an array or
Entity objects or maps, isn't there a way that the plug-in will create
the JSON specified below?

to use the dataFIeldName, you have to return something like:

{
"state" : [
["Alabama","AL"],
["Alaska","AK"]
]
}

if you are using 2.1 check this link:

http://cwiki.apache.org/WW/ajax-and-javascript-recipes.html#AjaxandJavaS

otherwise just an array of arrays should do:

[
["Alabama", "AL"],

]

RE: AjaxTag 1.3 support?

2008-02-04 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Jeromy, 

Thanks for your help. I was able to finally get the autocompleter to
work with the example you provided. 

Strange behavior -- I can only get the autocompleter to work if the list
(array) is of the type String. If I try to return an array of my Entity
objects, or a Map I get the dojo error:

FATAL exception raised: TypeError: Value undefined (result of expression
this.data[x][0].toLowerCase) is not object.

I tried specifying the attribute dataField on the autocompleter, and it
didn't work either.  

I should be able to serialize the entity objects right? The JSON that
was passed back to the browser looked like it serialized my objects just
fine.

Again, thanks to all the people who replied to my question.

My 2c:
I think this is a bad solution and shouldn't be encouraged.  It's
marginally better than writing a custom servlet.

Struts2 ResultTypes [1] are designed specifically for controlling the
type and content of results from actions to separate the view from the
model, even if the "view" is XML data.  Accessing the response and
writing to it directly isn't necessary except in the rarest of cases.

For Ajax/JS libraries that use JSON, the JSON Plugin (JSON ResultType)
[2] will serialize your action into JSON automatically
The XSL ResultType will serialize your action into XML if you provide a
stylesheet [3]
The REST plugin includes code to serialize your action into XML using
Xstream. [4]

My point is, your action can setup a model (eg. a javabean matching the
model expected by AjaxTag), and the ResultType can serialize it to the
output stream.  In this case I'd create a custom result type using
XStream, but you could also use a XML template in a Tile, or have a
ResultType that accesses the instance created by AjaxXMLBuilder.

I think that error is coming from your jsp, not the JSON generation.
Do you have "this.data[x][0].toLowerCase" somewhere?

Musachy, 

The error displays in the browser, true, but I believe this is because I
have:  set to show debug.

So this is an ajax/dojo message...?

I don't have any code such as: "this.data[x][0].toLowerCase" anywhere in
the JSP or javascript sources.

Oh, and I have given up on AjaxTags -- it seems silly to include another
library to do what is already built into struts. Now if I can just get
it to work...

Cheers!

I think that error is coming from your jsp, not the JSON generation.
Do you have "this.data[x][0].toLowerCase" somewhere?

Jeromy, 

Again, thanks for the reply. I appreciate your help! 

Following your example below, I can see the JSON result in the app
server console when the action called, but I get the following error in
the browser:

FATAL exception raised: TypeError: Value undefined (result of expression
this.data[x][0].toLowerCase) is not object.

What is this telling me?

list




-- My Form:
 



-- My Action:
public class QuestionSearchAction extends BaseAction {

private static final long serialVersionUID =

Question[] list;
private QuestionService questionService;

public void setQuestionService(QuestionService questionService)
{
this.questionService = questionService;
}

public String execute() {
List all= questionService.getQuestions(); 
list= all.toArray( new Question[all.size()]);

I completely agree with Dave so I'll take a different tact. 

Based on this example: 
http://struts.apache.org/2.0.11/docs/ajax-tags.html#AjaxTags-autocomplet
erTag, 
I would also take the approach of returning a JSON Result via the JSON 
Plugin.  Only the configuration changes for an XML result.

So, my form looks like this:




So, my struts.xml contains the corresponding action definition with a 
JSON result:


   
   
  list
   
   
 

And my action method looks like this:

private ACEntry[] list;

public String execute() {
list = populateList()
return "success";
 }

public ACEntry[] getList() {
   return list;
}

---
In summary, the autocompleter does a get to /JSONList.action
Struts2 executes the execute method of ListAction
The execute method creates a structure that will populate the
autocompleter
The action returns a JSON result type
The JSON plugin converts the root object (the list property only rather 
than the whole action) to a JSON structure
The JSON plugin returns the application/json content to the
autocompleter

I'll leave it to you to determine what the list structure should like 
like.  As it'll probably be re-use I'd create a bean for the purpose. 
Use the FireBug plugin for firefox to inspect the format of the JSON 
result to ensure it matches the format required by the javascript 
library (or even better, write a unit test).
This will work with any javascript library that accepts JSON - you just 
have to provide an appropriate structure.  It will also work with any 
library that requires an XML response, except you'd use an XML result 
type like I previously described in this thread.

I hope that helps.  Struts2 is really well suited at providing non-html 
responses if you take the time to understand the ResultType
architecture.

Jeromy, 

Thanks for the comprehensive reply. Looking at the documentation and the
example app, I am still not sure how to configure my action/response.  I
am using tiles 2.

If I configure the autocompleter as such:



 



It seems I need to return my result in JSON format correct? By returning
a JSON String from the action, how to I configure my response?


question.panel


If I use the tiles response type, I get a dojo parsing error because the
whole page is returned from the reply. 

The example in the example app isn't very clear to me, as the action
returns a .JS file with the result hard coded, and not using any
template like tiles I might add.

Also, I think I found a bug? -- the namespace attribute seems to be
ignored when I pass href=%{search} to the autocompleter. I had to put
qualify the namespace in the value to get the correct action to be
invoked.

Any further assistance you might provide would be much appreciated...

Subject: Re: AjaxTag 1.3 support?

My 2c:
I think this is a bad solution and shouldn't be encouraged.  It's 
marginally better than writing a custom servlet.

Struts2 ResultTypes [1] are designed specifically for controlling the 
type and content of results from actions to separate the view from the 
model, even if the "view" is XML data.  Accessing the response and 
writing to it directly isn't necessary except in the rarest of cases.

For Ajax/JS libraries that use JSON, the JSON Plugin (JSON ResultType) 
[2] will serialize your action into JSON automatically
The XSL ResultType will serialize your action into XML if you provide a 
stylesheet [3]
The REST plugin includes code to serialize your action into XML using 
Xstream. [4]

My point is, your action can setup a model (eg. a javabean matching the 
model expected by AjaxTag), and the ResultType can serialize it to the 
output stream.  In this case I'd create a custom result type using 
XStream, but you could also use a XML template in a Tile, or have a 
ResultType that accesses the instance created by AjaxXMLBuilder.

If you're writing directly to the stream I doubt you'd even want to
return
anything other than a null from the action, no? What is the
"question.panel"
tile?

SiteMesh? The Ajax implementation isn't tied to SiteMesh at all.

Dated? Much of the S2 Ajax documentation is for S2.1, which isn't even
released yet. If anything, it's pre-dated.

AjaxTag 1.3 support?

2008-02-01 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hi all, 

I can't seem to get a simple Ajax based look ahead search to work. I am
trying to use AjaxTags 1.3 (http://ajaxtags.sourceforge.net/) in my
Struts2 application. What is the correct response to return? I am also
using Tiles2.

If I write the response directly to the output stream, that's what
displays in my browser (obviously it's the response from the server) --
if I return the result, Struts complains that the mapping is not
correct. 

Here's what I have:

My form looks like this:


  Search Question Text: 



 
My Action looks like this:

public class QuestionAction extends BaseAction implements
ModelDriven, Preparable, ServletRequestAware,
ServletResponseAware {

... 

public String getSearchTerm() throws Exception{

System.out.println(" Question Search Term:" + qt);
List results=
questionService.getQuestions(qt);
AjaxXmlBuilder builder= new AjaxXmlBuilder();
builder.addItems(results, "questionType", "text");
System.out.println(" Question Search Result:" +
builder.toString());

 response.setContentType("text/xml");
 response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
 ServletOutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
 out.print(builder.toString());
 out.close();

return SUCCESS;
}


My struts mapping:



question.panel



The struts 2 Ajax documentation seems manic and dated. It seems the S2
Ajax implementation is tied closely to sitemesh, which I am not using.

If anyone can help me get this going I would definitely be interested in
participating in the project updating the documentation.

Subject: Re: Help with (1...N) Editing using Ajax?

The problem is that you're rendering the form before you've stored 
anything under #session['guide']. I assume when you say you want to 
'bind the form to the object' your Ajax request places in the session, 
you mean you want to populate the form fields with data from that
object?

That can't work automagically, since the form is just part of the page 
in the browser and  has no knowledge of what might be happening to the 
session over on the server.

There are a couple of approaches you can consider to get this working:

1) instead of rendering the form as part of the initial page load, 
render it as the result of the Ajax request that loads the data. On the 
client-side, take that response and render it directly.

2) return the data itself as the result of the Ajax request (in XML or 
JSON format probably). On the client-side, take that response and use it

to populate the form you already have.

The key is that the form will not get populated with data just because 
you made data available after the fact. You either must render the form 
after the data is available, or perform additional processing to 'push' 
the data into the form.

Nope, nothing. 

If I bind my form to #guide. I find the first or last item in
the Collection that belongs to the parent when the list was iterated
over.

Maybe there is a better way to specify how to bind the property to the
struts control? Maybe something like: 
  

But how would I specify the item index in the collection?
Cheers!

Help with (1...N) Editing using Ajax?

2008-01-31 Thread Griffith, Michael *
Hello all, 

 

I am trying to understand how to present an interface where I allow a
user to edit a master/detail relationship using an Ajax technique. I am
quite new to Struts2, so please forgive the dalliance. 

 

I have a form that presents the user the ability to edit the master of
the master/detail, and below the form a list of each of the child
records.  Each child record presents an Ajax enabled link to trigger a
method on the struts action, where I pick out the child record from the
list and put it in the session...

 

The link looks like this:

 



 

 

 

 



 

The method is triggered in the action, and I set the child into my
request session... 

request.getSession().setAttribute("guide", g);

 

And I have a form that I'm trying to bind to the object in the session.
The form is actually hidden in a div/panel I'm using the YUI to present
the form to the user after the round trip to the server.  The form isn't
bound to the correct variable, because its set via a user interaction
after the entire page is presented to the user.

The form looks like this:

 











 

In Struts 1 I would have gotten a terrible error saying that the bean
wasn't found. Now the error fails silently. How can I make the form
somehow bind to the object in the session after the user clicks the
link? 

 

Any help would be much appreciated.
