Interceptor - Dynamically Add Result Config to Action Config
I have a Struts 2.0 interceptor that dynamically creates a result config and adds it to the action config. It does it like this: String newResult = shRes; ResultConfig cfg = new ResultConfig(newResult, ServletRedirectResult.class.getName()); cfg.addParam(location, SearchHelp.action?+request.getQueryString()); actionInvocation.getProxy().getConfig().addResultConfig(cfg); return newResult; Now I'm upgrading to Struts 2.2 and I'm finding that this no longer compiles due to Struts/Xwork refactoring. I've been able to create a ResultConfig object using ResultConfig.Builder but I can't find how to add this to the interceptor's action config / context. Can anyone give me a pointer?

There's my problem - ActionConfig no longer exposes addResultConfig. This
method is now in the Builder inner class and only operates on a new
ActionConfig object (as far as I can see), whereas I want to add a result

Re: Redirect in an interceptor
To answer my own question, just in case anyone comes across this:
It's no longer possible to dynamically alter the configuration, so a
redirect to an action that's not in the config must be done differently. I
copied the idea from ExecuteAndWaitInterceptor.java:
ServletRedirectResult shRes = new ServletRedirectResult();
container.inject(shRes);
shRes.setLocation(MyAction.action?+request.getQueryString());
shRes.setPrependServletContext(true);
shRes.execute(actionInvocation);
return Action.NONE;
and up above:
private Container container;
@Inject
public void setContainer(Container container) {
this.container = container;
}

I'm with Denis in that I prefer not to invoke jsps directly from the browser - if there is truly no logic to be performed before the display of the page, why not make it a static html page? If it must be a jsp, you don't even need to write an action to get to your jsp (assuming you're using struts 2), you can just configure the default action with your jsp as the success result.

The bean that should be in the list is called Grocery, with attributes name and quantity. My action class has a List called groceries. I have a conversion properties file set up like this: Element_groceries=mypackage.Grocery The JSP has this: s:textfield name=groceries(0).name label=Name / s:textfield name=groceries(0).quantity label=Quantity / s:textfield name=groceries(1).name label=Name / s:textfield name=groceries(1).quantity label=Quantity / If I fill in these values on the form, Name: Apples Quantity: 4 Name: Pears Quantity: 8 I get 4 Grocery objects in the List, not 2: Grocery obj 1: name=Apples, quantity=null Grocery obj 2: name=null, quantity=4 Grocery obj 3: name=Pears, quantity=null Grocery obj 4: name=null, quantity=8 What I want is two objects: Grocery obj 1: name=Apples, quantity=4 Grocery obj 2: name=Pears, quantity=8 I thought the (0) and (1) in the JSP would tell the framework to do this, but obviously not - it doesn't realize that the first two attributes (name quantity) should go into a single Grocery object.

Don't instantiate a new User object - the interceptor will do that the

it into your action class.

Using Map as option list source with s:select tag
Hello all, I'm playing with the Struts 2 s:select tag, trying to use a Map as the backing collection for the options list. This is Struts 2.0.11. From the docs: Iterable source to populate from. If the list is a Map (key, value), the Map key will become the option 'value' parameter and the Map value will become the option body. So I have a Map, with values of type PayPeriod, which is a simple Java bean. What I get in the rendered values is the String representation of the class ( yadda.yadda.payper...@dfg65 ). Is it possible to code something in the tag to get a PayPeriod bean attribute showing as the rendered value?

Scoped Model Driven Example?

Struts 2 Portlet/Oracle Portal Problems
Hello all -
We've had some trouble using Struts 2 portlets (2.0.14) with Oracle
Portal, and I wondered if anyone else had used this combination
successfully.
The problems occur with portlets that have a form and submit buttons, and
the issue seems to be that Struts uses render parameters to pass
information (like action name) from the event phase to the render phase.
Oracle Portal keeps these values in the generated URL for the form action,
and so they persist for longer than Struts is expecting them to.
An aside - this is also an issue with straight JSR 168 portlets in the
Oracle portal, but we can work around this by using session attributes to
pass data from event to render, rather than render params. However, as
Struts uses render params internally to figure out which action to invoke,
there's no similar workaround for Struts. I suspect the problem is in the
Oracle portal - the JSR 168 spec seems to indicate that render params are
for passing data from event phase to render phase, but I wanted to see if
anyone was aware of the issue and if there is a workaround. This all works
perfectly when running in Pluto.
Here's an illustration of the problem - we are using a redirectAction to
get from event to render.
I have a simple Struts action class StrutsTest which has these methods:
public String execute(); // implements event phase processing
public String doView();// implements render phase processing
These methods do nothing except logging.
My form has a single text input field called pie and a single submit.
Here's the relevant part of the struts config:
action name=init
result name=success/WEB-INF/view/index.jsp/result
/action
action name=StrutsTestAction class=struts2hello.StrutsTest
result name=input/WEB-INF/view/index.jsp/result
result name=success type=redirectAction
param name=actionNameStrutsTestRender/param
param name=portletModeview/param
param name=pie${pie}/param
/result
/action
action name=StrutsTestRender class=struts2hello.StrutsTest
method=doView
result name=success/WEB-INF/view/index.jsp/result
/action
Here's what happens, step by step:
*** 1. First display. init action is invoked, which simply forwards to
the jsp. The form action url has this in it:
struts.portlet.action%3D%252Fview%252FStrutsTestAction%26struts.portlet.mode%3Dview
*** 2. I enter apple in the pie field and submit. The event phase mthod
(execute) receives the value correctly and form is redisplayed .
Logging shows this:
2009-04-16 09:32:31,581 INFO struts2hello.StrutsTest.execute - Begin
execute
2009-04-16 09:32:31,583 INFO struts2hello.StrutsTest.execute - End execute
2009-04-16 09:32:31,765 INFO struts2hello.StrutsTest.doView - Begin doView
A. Pie = apple
2009-04-16 09:32:31,767 INFO struts2hello.StrutsTest.doView - doView B.
Phase: RENDER
2009-04-16 09:32:31,768 INFO struts2hello.StrutsTest.doView - End doView
This is all correct - the event phase action is invoked, and then the
render phase action (doView method) is invoked and the phase (from
PortletActionContext) is RENDER.
But, on redisplay, the form action URL now has this embedded:
pie%3Dapple%26struts.portlet.action%3D%252Fview%252FStrutsTestRender%26struts.portlet.mode%3Dview%26struts.portlet.eventAction%3Dtrue
AND
struts.portlet.action%3D%252Fview%252FStrutsTestAction%26struts.portlet.mode%3Dview
I believe this is where things start to go wrong - Oracle has put the
render parameters (action name of StrutsTestRender and pie of apple)
into the generated action url, and subsequent submits will see these
parameters.
*** 3. Entering cherry into the pie field and submitting again shows
this in the log:
2009-04-16 09:33:40,502 INFO struts2hello.StrutsTest.doView - Begin doView
A. Pie = apple, cherry
2009-04-16 09:33:40,505 INFO struts2hello.StrutsTest.doView - doView B.
Phase: EVENT
2009-04-16 09:33:40,508 INFO struts2hello.StrutsTest.doView - End doView
So we've now gone directly into the render method, but we're in the event
phase. Presumably because of struts.portlet.action value of
StrutsTestRender in the form's action URL.
Also we now have both apple and cherry in the pie parameter values:
apple from being embedded in the URL, cherry from being entered in the
form.

30 second solution seems to indicate session variables are

out of curiosity are you implementing with METHOD=GET or METHOD=POST
?

Thanks for the reply Martin - I didn't get too far though.
Implementing SessionAware gives me a simple Map object, not a
PortletSession object. Also casting PortletSession to SessionMap doesn't
seem to please my JVM.
The form action uses a POST method.
Thanks,
Steve
