Re: Struts 6.3 Issue Uploading Files
Thanks Lukasz,
I'm not sure that is the issue. I did a simple verification test and added some
debugging around the request content type I got the following :
Request Content Type: multipart/form-data;
boundary=---22500187869113554433768726201
Using default regex string content type REGEX : true
I just plugged the default value into the REGEX parser :
Pattern multipartValidationPattern =
Pattern.compile("^multipart/form-data(?:\\s*;\\s*boundary=[0-9a-zA-Z'()+_,\\-./:=?]{1,70})?(?:\\s*;\\s*charset=[a-zA-Z\\-0-9]{3,14})?");
boolean validContentType = request.getContentType() != null &&
multipartValidationPattern.matcher(contentType.toLowerCase(Locale.ENGLISH)).matches();
I tried to raise a ticket to include some logging in the isMultipartRequest
function to record why it failed but I don't have an account anymore.
I will modify the source code locally to add some debug code this afternoon.
Hopefully it will build OK and I can get back to you with some feedback.

Re: Struts 6.3 Issue Uploading Files
Hi Burton,
The issue is with a simple HTTP request the file object is null, see the red
log entry below. But if I use a simple jQuery ajax call, it works as expected
and I’m not sure why and how to rectify.
This was the simple code I used to upload the file, same set of interceptors,
same action, same method and it works:
jQuery.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: $form.attr('action'),
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
data: formData,
success: function (response) {
if (response.success) {
console.log(“success, file uploaded
successfully”);
} else {
console.log(“failure, file upload failed to
execute successfully”);
}
},
error: function (err) {
console.log("Error ajax submission : ", err);
}
});
The log files now include:
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:54) - Uploaded file :
/apache-tomcat-9.0.44_base/work/Catalina/localhost/caams/upload_eabd436d_0fdd_4ff7_a598_b9a19724d8dd_.tmp
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:55) - Uploaded file name : Invoice -
1331-1.pdf
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:56) - Uploaded file type : application/pdf
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:57) - Uploaded file length : 0
whereas with an HTTP request the logs looked like this:
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:54) - Uploaded file : null
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:55) - Uploaded file name : null
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:56) - Uploaded file type : null
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:57) - Uploaded file length : 0
I’m trying to understand why the same action method works with the ajax
requests but not plain HTTP requests?
Finally, 6.3 doesn’t have the
org.apache.struts2.interceptor.ActionFileUploadInterceptor in the jar so I
can’t see how we could test?

Struts 6.3 Issue Uploading Files
Hi Guys,
We are unable to upload files to our first 6.3 application using HTTP requests,
but the strange thing is they work with ajax requests. I suspect we are
overlooking something in the config which is required in 6.3.
We are using 6.3.0.2 running on Tomcat 9. The file object is null after the
upload but we can see the upload is there.
I can see the params interceptor finds the file and copies it to the temp
directory, but I then can’t access the file in the action??? What’s really
strange is if we use the same mechanism using a an ajax request with FormData
it works as expected. That’s why we created a simple setup as outlined below to
identify the root cause.
Any help would really be appreciated.
Here’s a snippet of the logs:
multipart.JakartaMultiPartRequest (JakartaMultiPartRequest.java:103) - Found
file item: [upload]
multipart.JakartaMultiPartRequest (JakartaMultiPartRequest.java:114) - Item is
a file upload
When I try and access the file in my action:
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:54) - Uploaded file : null
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:55) - Uploaded file name : null
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:56) - Uploaded file type : null
action.IndexAction (IndexAction.java:57) - Uploaded file length : 0
And then after the request has completed:
multipart.JakartaMultiPartRequest (JakartaMultiPartRequest.java:361) - Removing
file upload name=Invoice - 1331-1.pdf, StoreLocation=
/apache-tomcat-9.0.44_base/work/Catalina/localhost/caams/upload_0569c990_d32c_4688_ad50_44db275ab0cc_.tmp,
size=465396 bytes, isFormField=false, FieldName=upload
This is what my form looks like:
Submit
My action has the following (BaseAction extends ActionSupport):
public class IndexAction extends BaseAction {
private File upload;
private String uploadFileName;
private String uploadContentType;
private long uploadContentLength;
public IndexAction() {
}
@Override
public String execute() {
return SUCCESS;
}
public String edit() {
return INPUT;
}
public String uploadTest() {
try {
LOGGER.debug("Uploaded file : "+ upload);
LOGGER.debug("Uploaded file name : "+ uploadFileName);
LOGGER.debug("Uploaded file type : "+ uploadContentType);
LOGGER.debug("Uploaded file length : "+ uploadContentLength);
inputStream = new FileInputStream(upload);
if (inputStream != null) {
inputStream.close();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
LOGGER.error("General . uploading error :", e);
}
return SUCCESS;
}
public File getUpload() {
return upload;
}
public void setUpload(File upload) {
this.upload = upload;
}
public String getUploadFileName() {
return uploadFileName;
}
public void setUploadFileName(String uploadFileName) {
this.uploadFileName = uploadFileName;
}
public String getUploadContentType() {
return uploadContentType;
}
public void setUploadContentType(String uploadContentType) {
this.uploadContentType = uploadContentType;
}
public long getUploadContentLength() {
return uploadContentLength;
}
public void setUploadContentLength(long uploadContentLength) {
this.uploadContentLength = uploadContentLength;
}
}
My relevant struts.xml config:
/WEB-INF/pages/main/formUpload.jsp

/WEB-INF/pages/main/formUpload.jsp
I18N Interceptor Change
HI Guys,
We have an old project which has been happily working for years. Recently we
updated it to 2.5.x which was surprisingly easy.
One issue we did run into which was quite annoying was the I18N Interceptor now
validates locales against the list of default available locales in this bit of
code:
if (locale != null &&
!Arrays.asList(Locale.getAvailableLocales()).contains(locale)) {
locale = Locale.getDefault();
}
The problem is our app is for refugees and not all the languages in in the
available locales array. This must be relatively new as it worked in the old
version 2.x ish.
As a work-around we over-rode the standard interceptor without the validation
but I wanted to ask if the sore team could use a parameter to bi-pass the
validation.
For example a tag in the struts.xml file:
false
and then access it in the interceptor.

I was just following the guidelines. If I don¹t hardcode simple aren¹t I
at risk of a circular reference, as the file will simply reference itself?

Re: Cascading Nature of Templates and Themes
I spoke too soon.
I just replaced all instances of parameters.theme with
parameters.expandTheme.
I had copied all the missing simple templates into my mobile template
directory as a work-around. When I deleted optgroup.ftl from the mobile
template directory I get the following error:
ERROR [ajp-nio-8009-exec-2] - Template processing error: "Error reading
included file template/~~~mobile/optgroup.ftl"
Error reading included file template/~~~mobile/optgroup.ftl
The problematic instruction:
--
==> include
"/${parameters.templateDir}/${parameters.expandTheme}/optgroup.ftl" [on
line 118, column 1 in template/simple/select.ftl]
in include "/${parameters.templateDir}/simple/select.ftl" [on line 25,
column 1 in template/mobile/select.ftl]
--
Java backtrace for programmers:
--
freemarker.template.TemplateException: Error reading included file
template/~~~mobile/optgroup.ftl
.
.
.
Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: Template
template/~~~mobile/optgroup.ftl not found.
What I don’t understand I why the template manager doesn’t try to load
optgroup.ftl from the simple template?
The mobile select.ftl template is simply:
<#include
"/${parameters.templateDir}/${parameters.expandTheme}/controlheader.ftl" />
<#include "/${parameters.templateDir}/simple/select.ftl" />
<#include
"/${parameters.templateDir}/${parameters.expandTheme}/controlfooter.ftl" />
And the theme.properties file has one entry:
parent=simple
Again any assistance would be appreciated.

Re: Cascading Nature of Templates and Themes
Thanks for the pointer Lucasz.
One thing I did notice was that some of my files didn’t use the
${parameters.expandTheme} parameter, but instead just had plain old
${parameters.theme} in the free marker templates.
I’ll make the changes and I’m pretty sure that should resolve the issue.
Again thanks for the help.

Cascading Nature of Templates and Themes
We¹ve started a new project which required a custom theme which we call mobile and we set it to extend the simple theme by creating a theme.properties file and setting parent=simple. Unfortunately this isn¹t working. It has in the past without any issues. Has something changed in the latest version of struts that would explain this? We are using struts 2.3.20 and freemarker 2.3.19 if it makes any difference. Z.
Re: Stream Result Returns Empty File
Found the issue.
I hadn’t set the contentLength parameter.
In the latest update to 2.3.15 if the contentLength isn’t set it generates
a zero length stream.
Once I set contentLength to tempFile.length() it all worked again.

Stream Result Returns Empty File
I¹m seeing a really strange issue in one of our struts apps with a stream
result where the downloaded file is empty (zero bytes).
I can¹t see where it is going wrong. I dynamically generate a zip file in
tomcat¹s temp folder and then use a Buffered input reader to pass off to the
struts stream.
I can the the zip file in the tomcat temp folder and it contains the data
it¹s supposed to. The issue is getting from the file to the input stream.
I¹ve included by struts configuration, the relevant part of my action and
the a detailed log.
I¹d appreciate any help.

K8 Struts2 Exploit
I've just found a number of new jsp pages on a web app we developed. There was a text file relating to the K8 Struts2 Exploit. We contacted the client and updated the files, but I'd like to know if anybody has further information about this exploit. Basically do we tell the client to wipe the server and reinstall everything or is the update to the web app enough. Z.

Localised text tag
I have a small issue that I'm trying to resolve and I was hoping the someone might have come across it earlier. I'll try to explain as best I can: I have a number of objects on the value stack: 1. pojo - a java object with a string attribute called key which links to a DB based localised text value 2. movement another java object with a string attribute called strength To display the localised text associated with the pojo key I use the following tag The problem is that if the key value clashes with another item on the value stack I don't get the string value. For example if the key value on pojo is "movement.strength" and the strength value for movement is "weak" I don't get the expected results. Instead of getting the localised text with key "movement.strength" I get the localised text with key "weak". I tried setting the searchValueStack property to false but it made no change. I'd appreciate any help. Z.
Re: Struts2-jQuery plugin
Hi Lucas, I don't use the plugin as I find using jQuery without a plugin to be simple enough. I suspect that if you look at the generated javascript in your searchResult.jsp page the jQuery binding will be waiting for a document ready trigger which isn't fired for ajax requests. The way I get around this to use the jQuery live function for binding which works perfectly, but as I said not having used the sj plugin not sure what you need to do. Z.

Re: Multi dimension array from form
Thanks Jeffrey,
In the end I went with using a string representation of the array
'[firstIndex][secondIndex][value]' and then used a tokenizer to recreate
the array.
It was pretty straight forward in the end.
I don't know why but I thought I'd used multi dimensional arrays like that
in the past but when I went back to look at some past projects, we hadn't.
I think I was suffering a little delirium.

Re: s:text encoding issue
No. My Mac uses en_AU as the default, but like you we use the request_locale parameter with the required locale. The system is designed to enable users to select the desired locale. The strange part is that that we haven't had any issues in the past when we just had Scandinavian languages, the problem only appears with Arabic and some African languages. I might have to look at the source for s:text tag and see if there is something I am missing. The key issue here is the getText method call on ActionSupport is working as expected, which is why I'm confused. Z.

s:text encoding issue
I'm having an issue using the s:text tag, in that it is displaying garbage on the screen. But if I use a s:property tag all works well. For example if I use the two following tags and select Arabic: The first works as expected and the displayed text is perfect, but the second just produces a series of question marks. I'd appreciate any help as we've just spent a shit load of time standardising on s:text and I don't really want to have to do it all over again. We are using struts 2.2.2, everything is UTF-8, struts, jsp, sitemesh, freemarker and jdbc connection. Z.
Unicode Encoding request parameters
We have a struts2 multilingual web app that requires request parameters be encoded as Unicode (UTF-8). In order to get the POST parameters to work we had to implement a character encoding filter to encode all HTML parameters as UTF-8. I'd like to know if it's possible to do the encoding via S2 and avoid the use of another filter. We'e set the struts.i18n.encoding property to UTF-8 and I don't know what else to do. As always I'd appreciate any suggestions you guys might have. Z.
Re: implementation of m. and www.
We use a simple interceptor which reads to request URL and sets some base action flags which we then use use with sitemesh to determine template structure. The benefit of an interceptor is that you only make any changes centrally. Z.

Re: Multi Devices and Multilanguage
We use a custom sitemesh decorator for each targeted platform and also a custom struts theme for each. This way we use the same core jsp files across the application. By keeping the JSP functionality simple we find it works really well. I hate to be the one who breaks it to you but you'll have to do some work arounds. For example we have a number of key navigation pages which are quite different for each of the platforms (mobile, tablet, web) and as such require more work. The action classes have to know the targeted platform to setup the appropriate data objects. As for multi-lingual development we use a database backed localised text system. We've had no issues with it. Having said that we are about to start on an Arabic language version, which should be a lot of fun ;). Same principle as above applies, use the S2 localised text wherever possible and be prepared to create some custom CSS and decorator files for non-latin based languages. Z.

Re: Pagination using Struts library
You'll need to make some mods for displaytag to work with S2. 1. You'll need to add an acceptableParameterName method to your classes, we just add it to our base class. 2. You have to add the Displaytag responseOverrideFilter to your web.xml for the export to work Having said all that, we are moving away from display tag and to jQuery Datatables. Honestly our life has become so much easier since we started incorporating more client side javascript. The code is easier to follow, ajax calls make security a breeze and the server load is considerably lighter. Z.

Extending Template Error
Hi guys,
I'm having a couple of issues with my freemarker tempates.
One is with extending the 'simple; theme. I have setup a custom theme which
has a theme.properties file containing a single line, parent=simple
The problem I'm having is that it can't find the simple directory.
Freemarker keeps throwing an error. I had to create a freemarker template
file with an include of the simple template, <#include
"/${parameters.templateDir}/simple/fielderror.ftl" />.
My struts.xml file contains . I don't know why it's not working. We recently upgraded
to 2.2.1 but I'm not certain if the problem existed prior to that.
The other problem I have is trying to use the s:checkbox tag as opposed the
the checkboxlist tag. I need to create a customised checkbox display and I
want to use the following code:
But the checkbox doesn't reflect the checkBoxArray value in the action. It
works when I use the s:checkboxlist tag, but I need finer control.
Any help on either issue would be appreciated.

Re: Struts 2 - s:text garbled
Hi Rubens,
I've had a similar issue foreign text was displayed as rubbish) not just
with the latest version but the last few. The difference is that we use
sitemesh not tiles.
In the what I found was that I had to change the filter order in my
web.xml. To be honest I couldn't see why this should have an impact but it
did and as I'm sure you're aware after a while you're just happy to have a
fix.
Here's the snippet of my web.xml I changed:
struts-prepare
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareFilter
struts-execute
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsExecuteFilter
sitemesh
com.opensymphony.module.sitemesh.filter.PageFilter
struts-prepare
/*

sitemesh

I hope this helps.

Re: execAndWait Interceptor
Sorry about the delayed response. I have been busy with xmas crap (ba humbug). The way we implement an ajax solution is to create a new thread, with a flag stored in the session and poll the server using a jquery ajax call every 10 seconds. The ajax call returns a json response which has the flag value as its first item and then relevant data if the process is complete. The beauty of this is we have no page refreshes and when the process is complete use the ajax response to either display the info or a link to the report. Z.

Re: execAndWait Interceptor
We use the interceptor for interrogating a legacy database where we have no control over the execution or timing of the query. We basically have an API we call and then wait in hope. I have to say that I've found the interceptor to be inconsistent at best. For example we have some queries that are actually quite quick but the interceptor insists on doing at least one page refresh before returning a result. We've tried tweaking all the setting with absolutely no joy. On the last project, we actually implemented an ajax solution which was far more elegant result. Z.

Spring 3 Upgrade
I just wanted to check if there were any issues with upgrading spring to version 3 with struts 2.2.1? I notice the complete download still has Spring 2.5 libraries. I'd appreciate any feedback from people who've made the jump and any issues to look out for. Z.
Re: Calling OGNL static method with date issue
I have a feeling you have to use is set with a tag
Or
if set
with a tag.
The other option, which I know works, is to expose a method on your action
which you can then access via OGNL.

Re: Link Display Logic
With OGNL you can call specific methods. So in my base action I have the
following:
public boolean isUserAuthorised(Integer actionId){
// here I get a handle to the authorisation code and test
// if the current user is authorised to execute the action
// if the user is aurthorised return true else return false
}
Then on my page I have the following
Hope it helps.

Re: Link Display Logic
What we have implemented is a set of public authorisation methods in our base action which we call via ognl passing the actionId as the parameter. For example to test if a user should be shown the print report we have a isUserAuthorised(Integer actionId) method which we use as follows: Your stuff in here I have to say that I think this is one of the best aspects of OGNL as we're easily able to easily use server side authorisation with simple ajax calls.

Re: Character Encoding Error using new filters
I have set UTF-8 as the default everywhere - struts, tomcat, sitemesh. I had a small breakthrough. It looks like it's a 2.1.6 specific issue. I updated a development version to 2.1.8 and 2.2.1 and both worked fine. I now have to find time to test the updated version for unintended consequences. Are there any issues I should look out for in particular when going from 2.1.6 to 2.2.1? Z.

OGNL Qurey
I¹m trying to construct a conditional display mechanism for a web app, but I need some help with the OGNL side of things. My app will produce a string like ³object1.attribute == 25 && object2. attribute > 5² and store it as a parameter in my action called condition. What I want to know if there is a way for OGNL to evaluate the expression represented by the string through recursion? Before anybody mentions it, I know the risk, but the way the string is constructed will protect against injected code. Z.

Re: how to set default focus field in ?
As a simple solution, why not just modify the form tag template and if the
focusElement parameter is set, include a simple javascript block at the
close of the form to set the focus. Just keep in mind that if there are two
forms on a page and both have the focusElement parameter set only the last
will be relevant.
The advantage being you can use javascript code to match your environment
jQuery, Dojo, pure javascript, etc.

Re: Jquery autocomplete with struts2.
I hate to be the one to say it, but I don¹t think the issue here is jQuery but your understanding of Struts2. I think you first need to get your head around using S2 and then migrating that simple php example will be easy. You fill find the only difference between the PHP example and using a json response is that the PHP example converts the data to json in the page context.

Re: World¹s Simplest Struts/2 Ajax Pattern
While I appreciate what you¹re saying, we¹ve found that by moving to one of the javascript libraries (we use jQuery, but they all offer pretty much the same range and depth) for all our ajax work, the task has been simplified immensely. Also, by moving away from the S2 ajax tags, we¹ve found that it has been easier to manage features and libraries. I guess what I¹m saying is that sometimes it¹s worth stepping back to see if we¹re just not reinventing the wheel. I make no secret of the fact that I find the S2 built in ajax support to be a wasted effort.

Re: Pagination with Struts 2.1.8 ?
We use display tag extensively and it ties into S2 really well. We¹ve set it up to use DB based pagination so you only load the items you need and it ties into S2 i18n properties.

When you get to that scale, I think it makes sense to move to DB based properties. Easier to manage, easier to move and less chance that something will go pear shaped.

Re: [Struts 2.1.8.1] Internationalization: how to remain in the current page ?
Hi Guys,
We simplified it for struts to use a simple interceptor. Can¹t show the
exact code due to legal crap, but here¹s the overview.
In our base action we have a String called requestString, with appropriate
getters and setters. We also have a Map of unsafe URL¹s and
their safe counterparts. For example if the unsafe url was
deleteObject.action it¹s safe option would be listObject.action
The interceptor uses the following code:
if(unsafeUrls.get(request.getRequestURI()) != null)
responseUrl = unsafeUrls.get(request.getRequestURI());
else
responseUrl = request.getRequestURI();
StringBuffer rStr = new StringBuffer(responseUrl);
rStr.append(³?²);
for (Iterator iter = request.getParameterMap().keySet().iterator();
iter.hasNext();) {
> String key = (String) iter.next();
> if (!"request_locale".equalsIgnoreCase(key)) {
> if (request.getParameter(key) != null) { // you can also include
> your own parameter specific exceptions. With the tag we used to have a comma
> delimited list of excluded parameters.
> rStr.append(key);
> rStr.append("=");
> rStr.append((String) request.getParameter(key));
> rStr.append("&");
> }
}
}
action.setRequestString(sStr.toString());
And then on the page we have:
"
title=""
/>
I had to modify the code to satisfy our people but let me know if you have
any questions. We use a complex parameter filtering process to unsure that
security isn¹t compromised.
We¹ve had to do quite a bit of i18n which has involved implementing DB based
properties and tighter integration with S2 and spring.

Re: [Struts 2.1.8.1] Internationalization: how to remain in the current page ?
I wrote a small custom tag which builds the link with the existing action and parameters. This way it just reloads the page. I also included a parameter that wouldn¹t allow the change (a jQuery dialog would give the user feed back) to take place if there might me an issue with system integrity for example submitting a form twice.

S1 Quirk with html tag
Yesterday I had to go back and update some changes to struts 1 app we developed and are maintaining. It¹s been a while since I¹ve done any struts1 work but it was urgent and resources are thin in the lead up to xmas. Anyway, my question is that I have two identical forms with identical configuration, but one works fine if the form elements don¹t have a name attribute and the other doesn¹t.To illustrate one form works with the following tag: But the second form only works when a name attribute is included: I¹d appreciate any insight into why this happens, as it caused me about 8 hours extra work, frustration and a little less hair leading up to the holidays.

Re: [Struts 2.1.8] datetimepicker and action: String or Date ??
HI Fernando,
For what it¹s worth in applications where we have a diverse range of locales
we found that it was best to create our own date converter.
The date converter then reads our properties file which contains an entry
with a comma delimited list of date formats which the date converters tries
in sequence and only if it fails does it throw an error.
We¹ve now developed about 6 applications that our clients use in non-English
countries and we¹re finding it works great.
If you want the source code just email me off list.

Re: Using Struts2 JQuery drag & drop
Hey Ignacio, I’m not a big fan of integrated ajax functionality. While it provides a simple solution at first when you need something a little more complex or customised it starts to show it’s limitations. Rather than using the sx;div tag why not just use a plain div and then use a jQuery ajax call, which can be triggered by your drag and drop event, to retrieve the content from the server side. I suspect that you want to pass your event coordinates to the server and display something appropriate. I don’t use S2 ajax plugin as I’ve been burnt by it too often. So, somebody else may be of more help on that front. Z. > > Hello Z., > you are right. I am really new to JQuery & Javascript as I've just focused > into server side programming.

Re: Using Struts2 JQuery drag & drop
Hi Ignacio, It not jQuery specific but more extracting the coordinates of the event using javascript. Depending on what your doing you have six pairs to choose from: clientX,clientY layerX,layerY offsetX,offsetY pageX,pageY screenX,screenY x,y Without knowing exactly what you¹re doing, I can only really give you general advice, but you could take the coordinates from the event and pass them via ajax and then use the response as required. I¹m apologise if I¹m being presumptuous but I suspect that you¹d really benefit from a good book on both javascript and jQuery.

Re: [S2] i18n for lists/maps
I just want to get a couple things straight:
1. Your state names are in localised properties files
2. The properties files are available to struts2 either via
struts.custom.i18n.resources or convention (read don’t ask)
If you app satisfies these two points then the method I mentioned will work
fine. If it doesn’t, it’s not that much work to satisfy them.
Where specifically are you seeing a problem?

Re: [S2] i18n for lists/maps
You don¹t have to have a DB back end. Here¹s a couple of examples from our system: It¹s pretty self explanatory, but the getText function is called on your action.

Re: possible bug in v2.1.6 ??
For what it¹s worth I was getting some strange results with included jspfs. In my case it was the freemarker encoding that was getting screwed up. What I found was if I included the <%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %> tag at the head of my .jspf files it worked fine. I don¹t know if it was a tomcat or struts issue but I know that now all our .jspf files include the tag. And we haven¹t seen the problem again.

Re: Freemarker Text Encoding Error
I guess you can, but I was a little reluctant to introduce the freemarker servlet mapping at the web.xml level as the configuration is handled internally by struts and I didn’t really want to run into any issues down the line. I guess I could have also looked at the tomcat configuration and specified the charset there. But I’m more comfortable just introducing the page attribute to all my page fragments.

Re: Freemarker Text Encoding Error
Apologies in advance for the cross post, but it saves on typing.
I found that the solution was simple in the end. While testing various
options I noticed I had one page that worked. In identifying the difference
between that and the others there was a difference in the content jspf for
that page, it had a <%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"
language="java"%> while the others didn’t.
I thought there was no longer a need for these in JSP fragments, the main
JSP page has one as does the sitemesh decorator. But obviously I was wrong.
So thanks again for your help guys.

I knew somebody would say that. I was too lazy to subscribe and I half
expected them to ask on the struts list.
Thanks Musachy, I’ll subscribe and post now. I guess I was hoping others
might have experienced a similar problem.

Re: Freemarker Text Encoding Error
Thanks Martin,
I‘m not using a freemarker template, the struts tags are.
I’ve set the charset meta tag correctly in my jsp page. The issue is with
the freemarker templates the struts tags use. I tried adding the <#setting
locale="da_DK"> setting to the top of the control header template with no
joy.

Freemarker Text Encoding Error
I¹m having trouble displaying Danish text in my forms using the struts tags
and I think it related to an error with how freemarker gets the locale. I¹m
getting a lot of question marks in the text, but if I set the server local
to Danish, all works as expected. Obviously that¹s not a solution as the
other languages also have problems.
For example the s:select tag is incorrectly displaying some Danish text. But
if I go in and edit the freemarker template file and change the label
display from ${} notation to one using <@s.property /> tag it works as
expected.
Here¹s the details
<@s.property value="%{parameters.label}"/> prints the correct text:
Hvornår (ca.) begyndte de nuværende rygsmerter eller bensmerter (iskias)?
But ${parameters.label?html} prints texts with ?¹ substituted for
unsupported characters :
Hvorn?r (ca.) begyndte de nuv?rende rygsmerter eller bensmerter (iskias)?
I can see one solution is to change all the freemarker template files and
replace ${} with <@s.property/>.
But I¹m sure there has to be a simpler solution.
Please, please help. As at the rate I¹m going I won¹t be needing a haircut
for a while.

Re: Re : Re : Re : Re : Struts2 + I18N
At the moment when we use execandwait we¹re finding that that the production thread doesn¹t even start until after the delay period is over. For example I did a simple test with the following configuration: 2000 50 /WEB-INF/pages/execAndWait.jsp /WEB-INF/pages/View.jsp > The view action checks for the existence of legacy data and if it exists retrieves it ad appends to the current data. If no legacy data exists the action is done in no time, but if legacy data is present it can take up to a couple of minutes to extract and combine. I was of the impression the above configuration would skip the execAndWait.jsp page if the thread was done within 2000 milliseconds with a check every 50 milliseconds, but what actually happens is that the action pauses for 2000 milliseconds and then starts the main thread, so we always get the execandWait page. I tried increasing the delay to 1 and the same happens with just a 10 second delay. I¹m hoping that I just haven¹t understood the configuration options, but I haven¹t been able to find more detailed information.

Re: Re : Re : Re : Re : Struts2 + I18N
Hi Julien, I¹m not sure of it¹s too late for you, but what we did was cheat and added a simple interceptor to the stack which set the default struts locale to whatever you need. It was trivial piece of code and then everything worked as expected. For what it¹s worth, the I18n and the execandwait areas are the two areas I find that S2 falls down the most. And what I hate even more is that we have a new young guy on the team and every time he comes across one of hacks we¹ve implemented I have to listen to Stripes this, and Stripes that or Wicket this and Wicket that for the next 2 hours.

Re: Configuring SiteMesh for specific action mappings in Struts 2?
I¹m certain that¹s not correct. We use the decorators.xml file extensively and we¹re able to have pretty fine control over the sitemesh decorators. I know in our installation the decorator is based on the action url rather than the resulting jsp file. For example you could include a excludes pattern which ignores all widget requests by placing /widgets/* in your excludes section.

Cookies
Two quick questions about cookies: 1. The cookie interceptor definition appears to be missing from the struts-default.xml file on 2.1.6. Is this a sign the the interceptor is on its way out? 2. The interceptor looks like it can only be used to read cookies. Do I need to grab the response object directly and add the cookie manually? Z.
Re: CSS background images, struts2
We use the tomcat method and have found there are no issues:
What you do is that in either your tomcat web.xml or your app xml specify :
jsp
*.css
Which will treat the css files as jsps and parse any el expressions they
contain and in your css place the following at the top so the browser knows
its a CSS file.
/* <%@ page contentType="text/css;charset=UTF-8" %> */
And the your style cane be set as follows:
background-image:
url('${pageContext.request.contextPath}/images/image.gif');
If it sounds complex its not. The only drawback is that the CSS file won¹t
be cached by browsers and there may be a small performance hit.

Re: One Struts2-project to rule them all
We¹ve implemented a similar solution where we have a custom interceptor which sets a domainId value based on the url used to access the site. It¹s then a simple matter of applying the appropriate processing for each of the domains based on the domainId value. I can tell you from our perspective its great as our app manages about 120 domains on a single app and the client loves it because they a a single interface for all domains.

Re: AJAX Validation
I’ve seen others use a customised version of DWR in combination with annotations. We looked at it to the point of almost going with it but in the end the decision was made it wasn’t worth the effort. We have little in the way of duplication. The approach we took was to be all nice-nice on the JS validation with regards to client feedback and then be more abrupt on the server side as we could assume that if the client side validation failed, either somebody was doing something they shouldn’t be or something had gone wrong in a big way. If server side validation failed on items that JS had supposedly validated we just threw the user to an error page. I like the looks of the JSONValidation Interceptor, but I’m just a little concerned about the number of round trips. It looks like each form submission occurs twice, once for validation via ajax and a second regular HTTP request after. Z. > > @Wes : Thanks for the samples, I'll check it.

Re: AJAX Validation
It depends on the approach you want to take in validation. For security reasons we run two layers of validation, a simple model using jQuery checking mandatory fields and limits checks and then a more rigorous model server side. As for setting up, we looked at how it was done with S2 and dojo, in the end we found it it much easier just to program directly when creating the form pages. Because of the powerful selectors in jQuery and judicious use of listeners we¹ve had no issue with maintenance of code and we¹ve been able to leverage a range of plugins available for jQuery. Originally we tried to have the scripts created automagically through programming, but in the end it wasn¹t worth the effort. We¹ve extended the CSS and XHTML templates to accommodate some time saving features but on the whole there wasn¹t much to it. I now find it quicker to setup the validation directly rather than setting up the XML files. It¹s amazing what can be achieved with a few well placed s:if tags and some JS code.

Re: Struts vs Other competitors
Sadly, I have kids so I either have no time for video games or can¹t get access to the gear. My past time is daydreaming about having a past time. As for testing, and documentation these tasks are as valid as any others, but again the problem from my perspective, and I don¹t mean that in a negative way, is finding which tasks need to be done. I have so much trouble navigating through the dev management part of the site. I guess what I was trying to say is that if the outstanding items could be broken down in manageable tasks, I¹d find it much less intimidating to take them on.

Re: AJAX Validation
>From what I can tell Dojo has been moved out into a plugin, but still exists. Honestly though, I¹d take the opportunity move away from an integrated solution to using a javascript framework directly. We use jQuery and it integrates with Struts without any major issues and more often than not offers much greater flexibility. I know of others who use dojo, mootools and prototype without any issues.

Re: Struts vs Other competitors
I have to agree. Our touch with the JSF Oracle was both painful and fruitless and lead us to truly appreciate how bad things could be. Having said that, I think Martin has raised some points about how S2 can be improved and I think S2 is at a stage where there needs to be some general discussion on where all interested parties (devs and users) think the framework should be heading and where there are deficiencies. I for one think, that with S2¹s improved plugin architecture, there is a huge amount of scope in what can be achieved. We need a few key people to guide the process. I know my biggest fear is over committing and not having the time to deliver. If there was a centralised coordinator who could organise a second tier of developers, for example, who can help on a smaller scale then I believe more of the niche development could be achieved.

Re: [Struts 2] Date conversion general bug!
I agree that date conversion is a real problem for S2, especially in multi lingual applications. We¹ve had to implement our own converter which either looks for a format value with the date string or picks up a list of default prioritised date formats and tries each one successively until success or failure with all. Ideally it would be good if we could configure S2 out of the box (so to speak) to perform the same functionality. By that I mean that in struts.xml or by convention file you could specify locale or a comma separated list of date formats to try for both short (date only) and long (date and time) values. Z.
Resource Bundle Advice
I have a 2.1.6 App that I want to move the resource bundle away from properties files to a database backed solution and I was hoping I could get some feedback on others experience. I was planning to extend java.util.ResourceBundle and add the requisite methods for accessing keys and properties via a spring backed dao and then use the following methods to refresh the data after any changes: LocalizedTextUtil.reset(); LocalizedTextUtil.addDefaultResourceBundle(³LocalisedMessageClass²); LocalizedTextUtil.setReloadBundles(true); I was hoping that somebody with some experience with this could give some feed back.

Re: Freemarker error generated with CheckBox List
Thanks Martin,
The method won’t error out on null values. The first part of the method
returns a false if either obj1 or obj2 are null.
I’d already isolated the code. The problem I’m having is that the Array
containing my checkbox selected values would occasionally contain a null
value in the array (this was from a legacy system and I couldn’t easily do
anything with it).
In the end I added a workaround by iterating through the array and
discarding null values.
I still think the equals code for arrays should be the other way around as
it is for Iterable. That way it won’t throw an error.
The problem is purely in the way the Array equals code is written and if
changed won’t throw errors.

Freemarker error generated with CheckBox List
I¹m getting a freemarker error when I use a s:checkboxlist tag and the
array which contains my item values is empty.
When I had a look at the stack trace it¹s pointing me to the following
error:
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.struts2.util.ContainUtil.contains(ContainUtil.java:96)
When I had a look at the source for ContainUtil, I noticed that the equals
expression is arse about.
if (obj1.getClass().isArray()) {
for (int i = 0; i < Array.getLength(obj1); i++) {
Object value = null;
value = Array.get(obj1, i);
(Error is thrown here) if (value.equals(obj2)) {
//log.debug("obj1 is an array and contains obj2");
return true;
}
}
Ideally the expression would be best rewritten if(obj2.equals(value)) as we
have already tested obj2 for nullness at the start of the contains method.
Now the hard part, I don¹t want to have to recompile the struts code and was
hoping there was a simple workaround.
All suggestions considered at this point.
TIA

OT: Good CSV export library
Hi guys, I¹m hoping somebody can help me. I need a java library that will take a List of POJOs and convert to CSV. I¹ve found a truck load that go the other way, CSV mapped to POJO but I can¹t find a good one going my way. I¹m looking for something that produces CSV¹s in the same way that xStream produces XML files. Something that uses annotations would be fantastic. I don¹t want to go to the effort of writing one of my own if a good one already exists. Z.

Re: Any hint of JQuery on struts2 tutorial, thanks!
We¹ve been using jQuery in a Struts2 project without any real issues. We¹re not using the plugin. If you¹ve got your head around struts and jQuery, I don¹t see what the problem is.

Re: Submitting a Date to an Action
That¹s exactly right but sometimes you want to use a format that isn¹t the
short format for the locale and I suspect that¹s what is happening with
Richard.
He has two choices, either configure his date time picker to produce the
date in the required format, or as suggested write your own converter. My
only concern with Matt¹s version is that the conversion exception is buried
which will have implications for validation.

Re: Display BigDecimal Format
I did end up writing a custom type converter, but I really think that¹s

Re: Date time picker
It’s one of plugins in the plugin repository: http://code.google.com/p/struts2jscalendarplugin/ It’s not the best implementation of the time but it works and time was of the essence. It uses dropdowns for the time. I’ve had to modify the code a little because of some locale specific issues, let me know if you have any issues I can send you the updated stuff. I’m tracking development of the jQuery based date/time wigit. It looks impressive but far from ready for primetime.

Re: Display BigDecimal Format
Thanks Seshagari,
But I¹d have to do this in every action and on every form. I might just
write a customConverter for BigDecimals and place it in my xwork properties
file.

Display BigDecimal Format
Our forms have some currency and and we need to display to 2 decimal points when the data is prepopulated. At the moment is displays as a single decimal point. I could specify all the relevant fields in a package.properties file but I¹d like to do it across the board for big decimals. Do I have to create a custom type converter or is there a property I could set. Z.
Re: Date time picker
No need. I found the plugin for jscalendar which does exactly what I need and dropped in without a hitch. Z. > > > Hi, > > I¹m hoping somebody can help. > > I need a date and time picker.

Date time picker
Hi, I¹m hoping somebody can help. I need a date and time picker. The dojo based one is either a date or time picker, but not both. Does anybody know of a good date and time picker I can use or suggestions on how to easily combine the dojo date and time picker to combine. Z.
Tooltips Not working in 2.1.6
I¹ve just upgraded an app from 2.0.xx to 2.1.6 and found that the s:select tag is incorrectly rendering the tooltip html. I¹ve gone back to defaults and this is what¹s being produced:: Payment Type: alt=" Tooltip copy goes here." You¹ll notice that the img tag is closed before the alt parameter. It looks like it¹s an error in the freemarker template that needs to be rectified. Z.
Re: smart URLs
Not to be rude, but I don¹t think the smart url plugin exists anymore. I had the impression it was folded into the convention plugin. As far as mapping params I¹m not sure it does what Anders was after. Somebody with more experience with the convention plugin can answer that better.
