Re: RE: Adding Json to existing action

2009-10-28 Thread Michael Varlik
Hi,

I already use the json plugin. I have written a new action to test the plugin 
and it works fine - I get my json result.
But for some reason it doesn't work with the existing action (I didn't write 
this action).

Here's what I did:
* Installed the json plugin by copying it into WEB-INF/lib
* Added a mapping to struts.xml which refers to the existing
  action but has a json result type and a different name.
* Added the getJsonData() method to the action with return execute();
  in the body.

Now I can call the action by it name myJsonData.action but it only
returns success.

 What I meant was either to use Json Plugin for struts 2. Read the
 following Wiki page:
 
 http://cwiki.apache.org/WW/json-plugin.html
 
 The JSON plugin is bundled with Struts since 2.1.7. Or you can write your
 customized Struts 2 Result type for JSON and register it in your
 struts2.xml for use [does not make sense to do that if you are using 2.1.7+].
 
 To learn how to do that, take a look at the a sample provided in struts 2
 in action. That should do it as well.
 
 Hope this helps.

  I have added this method which actually calls execute().

 Hi,

 I need to call an existing struts action
  within my
 application from a
 JavaScript function. I thought it might
  be possible to
 create an additional entry in the struts
  mapping file like
 this:

 action name=getDataJson
 class=com.mypackage.MyAction
  method=getData
 result type=json /
 /action

 and then call the action with
  getDataJson.action.
 Unfortunately, when I try this a
  NullPointerException
 occurs in the action code. It seems,
  some parameters are not
 properly initialized.

 What I'd like to know is: what is the
  recommendet way of
 calling an existing action

Re: RE: Adding Json to existing action

2009-10-28 Thread Michael Varlik
Hi,

whis is the mapping for the action as it is currently used in the application. 
No json here:

action name=getDailyAssetUtilizationReport 
class=com.pbvm.crr.web.assetcalendar.AssetCalendarAction 
method=getDailyAssetUtilizationReport   
result/jsp/crr_Asset_Calendar_Daily_Report.jsp/result
/action

This is the mapping I have created which points to the same action but with 
json enabled:
action name=getDailyAssetUtilizationReportNew 
class=com.pbvm.crr.web.assetcalendar.AssetCalendarAction 
method=getDailyAssetUtilizationReport
  result type=json
param name=rootjsonData/param
  /result
/action

The only method I have added to the action is this:

public String getJsonData() throws Exception {
   return getDailyAssetUtilizationReport();
}

Do you need any additional information?

Proccessing parameters inside Struts action

2009-10-12 Thread Michael Varlik
Hi,

I'm using a Struts2 action to devliver JSON data. This action is calleb by an 
Ajax HTTP request. Now, I need to send some parameter along with the request. 
The sending of the parameters works fine but I don't know how to access them 
from within the struts action.
So my question is: what is the proper way to pass POST parameters to a struts 
action and how do I retrieve them from within the action?

Many thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Michael
