Hibernate doesn't know the ID until the object is persisted to the DB. Hibernate tries to delay this as long as possible to minimise DB writes. You would have thought a request for the ID would force a DB write but Hibernate doesn't seem to implement this behavior. If you want the ID you need to force the DB write first.

RE: How to pretty print HTML from Struts
Yes - I've got some complex tags and the resultant HTML has loads of redundant whitespace in all the wrong places. Trying to compare with original mock-ups takes for ever. I like doing this with a filter because it's easy to remove if I'm having problems later. I've just got it working and it's doing what I want. I appreciate it may cause problems later... The correct config is: - JTidyFilter *.action StrutsFilter /* It was just the ordering of the filters that was causing problems. Is there a better way of tidying up the HTML being emitted from a Struts View?

How to pretty print HTML from Struts
My Struts Views are made up of JSP and Tiles and the resulting HTML is untidy to say the least. This causes problems when I try to compare it with HTML mock-ups. To solve this I'm trying to use the JTidy library to pretty print the HTML output to the browser. I'm using the JTidyFilter configured as follows: - StrutsFilter /* JTidyFilter /* This seems to be failing because the Struts Filter Dispatchers only pass the request down the Filter Chain if it is not a Struts Request (e.g. *.action). Therefore this config will try to pretty-print *.css, *.js, *.img etc. but completely ignores the outputs of my actions. Does anyone know a sensible way of pretty printing the Struts HTML output to the browser? Many Thanks, Steve Steve Higham
RE: Struts2 : XML based View
Hi, I have projects that include JS (and jquery) in the HTML pages they output. It's then up to you to construct your jquery widgets when the document loads. Is this what you are looking for...

RE: Does the StrutsTestCase test filters defined in web.xml?
Hi Miguel, I haven't used the StrutsSpringTestCase however I have made use of the StrutsTestCase. This only tests the interceptor stack / Action / Result. There is no web server involved and no attempt to render the resulting page. Therefore I would be surprised if anything from web.xml is called. You could try looking at Apache Cactus or Apache HttpClient to test this behaviour? Alternatively if you generate the file within Struts then the StrutsTestCase will suffice. I've generated exports from Struts this way.

Dear all, I am using StrutsSpringTestCase (which extends StrutsTestCase) to perform some acceptance tests (under the skin). I am also using Displaytag (www.displaytag.org/1.2/ ) to build some tables in the view. This tag supports excel/pdf export, which uses a filter you configure in web.xml [1] The way the filter works is, in short: a (odd looking, numerical) parameter is added to the request. The filter checks for the existence of that parameter and, if it exists, creates the pdf/excel. I want to test the creation of this file (and its contents). However, when I debug the StrutsSpringTestCase test with a breakpoint on that filter it does not stop there, so my questions are: 1) Does the StrutsTestCase not pass through other filters in your web.xml, and only goes through the struts filter? 2) If so, is there anything else in the struts tests that could help me out? How do you suggest I perform this test?

RE: StrutsTestCase, jUnit and file upload
Thanks to Chris, Gabriel for your comments. I finally got this to work yesterday. A neat solution probably requires refactoring StrutsTestCase and deriving a new class (StrutsMultipartTestCase) from it. In the meantime the following changes will work subject to a couple of limitations: - This only supports upload of a single file - although fairly simple to extend for multiple files. I've use Mockito for a couple of mocks It's not very clean :-( First you need spring-web-x.y.z.jar on your classpath. This comes with the junit plugin. Your test class needs the following override. This is a cut & paste job from StrutsTestCase except for the request creation line. /** * We need to override this method so we can use class * MockMultipartHttpServletRequest for the request. */ @Override protected void initServletMockObjects() { servletContext = new MockServletContext(resourceLoader); response = new MockHttpServletResponse(); request = new MockMultipartHttpServletRequest(); pageContext = new MockPageContext(servletContext, request, response); } We now need a new version of getActionProxy with additional parameters as follows: - /** * We need our own version to handle the file uploading * @param uri struts action uri * @param contentType mime content type * @param filename name reported to action * @param file uploaded file * @return ActionProxy */ protected ActionProxy getActionProxy (String uri, String contentType, String filename, File file) { // Create the proxy ActionProxy result = super.getActionProxy (uri); // Not part of upload but I think required for SessionAware ActionContext context = result.getInvocation ().getInvocationContext (); if (context.getSession () == null) { context.setSession (new HashMap ()); } // Wrap the request in a MultiPartRequestWrapper MultiPartRequest mpr = createMultiPartRequest (contentType, filename, file); MultiPartRequestWrapper wrapper = new MultiPartRequestWrapper (mpr, request, null); ServletActionContext.setRequest (wrapper); return result; } protected MultiPartRequest createMultiPartRequest (String contentType, String fileName, File file) { MultiPartRequest result = Mockito.mock (MultiPartRequest.class); Vector fileParameterNames = new Vector (); fileParameterNames.add (PROP_NAME); Enumeration enumFpn = fileParameterNames.elements (); Mockito.when (result.getFileParameterNames ()).thenReturn (enumFpn); String [] contentTypes = new String [1]; contentTypes [0] = contentType; Mockito.when (result.getContentType (PROP_NAME)).thenReturn (contentTypes); String [] fileNames = new String [1]; fileNames [0] = fileName; Mockito.when (result.getFileNames (PROP_NAME)).thenReturn (fileNames); File [] files = new File [1]; files [0] = file; Mockito.when (result.getFile (PROP_NAME)).thenReturn (files); return result; } private static final String PROP_NAME = "propertyName"; This assumes that your upload action has methods setPropertyName (File), setPropertyNameContentType (String), setPropertyNameFileName (String). The @Test methods now include the following: - File uploadedFile = new File ("path to test file"); ActionProxy proxy = getActionProxy ("uri", "content type e.g. text/csv", file.getName (), file); assertTrue (proxy.execute ().equals ("expected action result"); Note that the calls to the action are generated internally. You don't need any request.setParameter (...) calls.

RE: event On struts
Hi, Struts is very different to .NET. The underlying technologies are used in a very open fashion. The good thing is that this means you can do pretty much anything you like. The downside is that you need to understand the underlying technologies and do some legwork. As suggested you can use embed JavaScript in the HTML generated by Struts from JSP or a similar technology. You need to create this JavaScript. However you can use whatever your favourite JS library is to simplify things. I've got some code using JQuery that parses the HTML and adds JavaScript extensions to standard HTML controls. This provides the basic mechanism to react to user selection etc. If you want to, you could then make something like a JSON call back to the Server. Struts can react to this using appropriate Result types. I think there's a plug-in somewhere that helps this process but I haven't used it. Enjoy...
