Re: Filter / Logging

[atta-ur rehman]

Hi,

What's the url-pattern for you filter? If it's being called more than once
for an action I'd guess that you have it set to intercept all the requests.
Changing it to something specific, like *.do, might help.


  LoggingFilter
  *.do

Re: Reloading resource properties

[atta-ur rehman]

Jim,

What do you mean next time login? Logging in without reloading the app or
restarting Tomcat?

Did you if you had autoload set to on on your Tomcat app?

For most of the servers (both servlet containers like Tomcat and app servers
like Weblogic for example) I'd expect that you will have to reload the
application to be able to view the changes made in the props file.

Re: Implementation of new row functionality of HTML table in Struts

[atta-ur rehman]

now i understand you're renaming the dynamically added textboxes thru
Javascript? right? if that's the case your renaming looks good to me. can
you do the trick in the form's reset() method; that is, set the a new
Customer array to the forms's property with something like:

String value = request.getParameter("customer[0].firstName");

  if (value != null) {
  int count = 1;
  while ((value = request.getParameter("customer[" + count +
"].firstName")) != null) {
  count++;
  }
  }

  Customer[] customers = new Customer[count];
  f.set("customer", customers);

Re: Implementation of new row functionality of HTML table in Struts

[atta-ur rehman]

okay, so you're saying use can add only ONE row dynamically before submit?
and that the newly added row's HTML code is:


 
 
 
 
 


if that's the case, in your ActionForm's reset method, detect that user has
added a new row, maybe thru request.getParameter("customer[?].firstName")
where ? will be an integer 0..n where reuqest.getParameter would return null
for n+1. once you've done that do a:

Customer[] customers = new Customer[n];
form.set("customer", customers);

see if that helps.

Re: Implementation of new row functionality of HTML table in Struts

[atta-ur rehman]

Irfan,

How are you storing data required for initial rows? As a collection of
objects in some scope that  uses to paint them on the page?

When user submits the page how are you getting the updated values?
Populating the objects in the same collection or constructing a new
collection and adding a object for each row?

If that's the case, then all you need to do is reset the collection of
objects to the new number of rows submitted by the user. Commons-Collection,
which is required by Sturts(?) have a lazy-list which could be used for this
purpose.

Re: accessing request attributes

[atta-ur rehman]

Chris,

I'm sure you'd know scriplet way of doing it, which I'm not going to
recommend: <%=request.getAttribute("toDate") %>.

Struts' bean:write should do it: 

Better still if you're using Servlet 2.4 compliant app server/servlet
container you could use JSTL expressions: ${toDate} and it will search the
attribute in app, session, request and page scope for you. Same thing as
. You'd, of course, need to include TLDs for JSTL
in the latter case.

Hope this helps.

Re: Action.execute() only being invoked the first time a url is requested ??!!!

[atta-ur rehman]

Hi,

Most probably your page is gettnig cached by the browser. try








or

<%
response.setHeader("pragma", "no-cache");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-store");
response.setDateHeader("Expires", 0);
%>

to keep your browser from caching the page and see if it works.

Re: how to copy the properties of one Struts form-bean to another?

[atta-ur rehman]

Hi Starky,

Yes, I'd think that having a common super class for a set of form classes
that all have some common fields should be a good idea. Not only you get
shared fields but also reset() and validate() can be reused in subclasses,
for example.

Re: MockStrutsTestCase problem

[atta-ur rehman]

Hi,

what's the exception?

does your form class has a method getPb()/setPb() and is it non-null for the
current instance of the form?

Re: Struts Form Logic Error

[atta-ur rehman]

Asad,

Is this your complete struts-config.xml? If so, you're missing 
collection in it. Please add your form in the  and then add the
"name" attribute in the action to refer to your form.





and then in your action mapping:




> 
>  />
> 


also make sure sure in your JSP you're using html:text struts tags and
setting appropriate properites:



This assumes your testForm has a getter/setter for zipCode.

Hope this helps.

Re: How to handle forward instructions within an action class?

[atta-ur rehman]

Jeff,

Assuming the code snippet in a method that returns an ActionForward, like
the execute() method itself, you can instantiate ActionForward and return
it:

else if(action.equals("sendMessage"))
{
String member = request.getParameter("member");
ActionForward forward = new ActionForward(sendMemberInvite.jsp?member=" +
member);
return forward;
}


as for the exception, I think it's becuase Struts is trying to forward to
ActionForward *after* request dispatcher committed the response. Returning a
null, again assuming that the method is returning an ActionForward, would
tell Struts to leave the response alone.

else if(action.equals("sendMessage"))
{
String member = request.getParameter("member");
RequestDispatcher view =
request.getRequestDispatcher("sendMemberInvite.jsp?member=" + member );
view.forward(request, response);
return null;
}


Hope this helps.

Re: reset form in session scope

[atta-ur rehman]

The fundamental question is, can you afford a page submit for so callled
'reset' button? please change the 'reset' to 'submit' as shown below. Now
when user hits Reset, page is submitted with submit=reset; from this point
onwards you can clean stuff from session.

Re: reset form in session scope

[atta-ur rehman]

Faisal,

Are you saying you want to do it on client side? Using the 'normal' HTML
reset? If so, I don't see how. That's why I assumed you're submitting for
reset. The reset button only resets your form elements; and you can use
javascript to call reset on more than one forms. But I don't see how can you
get rid of results shown.

Submitting for reset and claring sesion data would be easiest way. You can
also use DHTML to remove results table from the current document if you
absolutely want to do without a submit.

I hope this helps.

Re: reset form in session scope

[atta-ur rehman]

in the actionClient action class, on reset button click:

ActionForm form = (ActionForm) session.getAttribute("searchClientForm");
if (form != null) {
form.reset(...);
}

only if I understood your question correctly and search form is not doing
anything with mapping and/or request in it's reset() method!

Re: How to remove the unwanted ???en_US string from ActionMessages

[atta-ur rehman]

Hi there,

try this:

if (username == null || username.trim().length() == 0){
ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages();
ActionMessage message = new ActionMessage("credentials.empty");

> messages.add(ActioneMessages.GLOBAL_ERROR, message);
> saveMessages(request,messages);


}

Basically, the thing to note here that ActionMessage takes a key from the
resource file which I assumed "credentails.empty" is. The first parameter of
the ActionMessges.add(...) is the property against which error is being
stored or the generic global_error constant.

HTH.

Re: access session object

[atta-ur rehman]

if you're running servlet container that supports 2.4 servlet specs
and you web app is also configured to be of version 2.4, thru 
element in your xml:

${myobject}

in your JSP should print it. in scriptlets:

<%=session.getAttribute("myobject")%>

should work.

"session" is reference to current session is available for all the JSPs.


HTH.

P.S By the way, and no offence please, this isn't a Struts question as
much as a JSP question.

Re: Security in Struts

[atta-ur rehman]

Hello Tarek,

I'd say front your application with a Servlet Filter that checks for
the security of the current page against security runles defined in
database/XML and probably cached for the current session to avoid
hitting database for every request.

Re: use action-form's properties in JSTL

[atta-ur rehman]

Hi,

try 

formName.property

formName is the name that you defined in your struts.xml for the form
of current action. it should work. and the reason it works that Struts
puts the form object under the 'name' key in either request and
session scope depending upon the 'scope' attribute of your current
action.

Now JSTL shouldn't have a problem finding a bean in either request or
session scope as long as you know it's name.

hope this helps.

Action class defines getResources(HttpServletRequest) method, thru
which I can get access to MessageResources.

I don't see an equivalant method in ActionForm. Is it possible to get
access to resource files in ActionForm subclasses? If so, how would I
do it?

Thanks.

Data in a MxN grid

[atta-ur rehman]

All,

What's the 'standard' way in Struts to input data in a table whose
number of rows and columns (yes, for both rows and columns)  is
decided dynamically on every request? Indexed properties don't seem to
be working with variable number of columns.

So far I've to deal with only  elements but this may as
well include other input types as well.

Thanks in advance for any help. Any references of example would be
highly appereciated.

[OT] Request for comments on DAO pattern implementation

[atta-ur rehman]

Dear all,

I've contemplated two ways of implementing DAO pattern; and I'm unable
to decide which is better :) Any comments on pros and cons of these
two approaches will be greatly appericiated.

Implementation 1: Have IDAO interface and let all the DAO objects
implement this interface; with probably an abstract class in between.
Every method need to cast Object down to its relevant DTO and throw
exception if the DTO is not of expected type.

public interface IDAO {

  Object findByPrimaryKey(final Object key);
  Collection findByCriteria(final String whereClause);
  Object insert(final Object o);
  void delete(final Object o);
  void update(final Object o);
  Collection getAll();
}

public class FooDAO implements IDAO {
..
}

Or  approach 2: every DAO is a class of its own with all the methods
only accepting the expecting DTOs!

public class FooDAO {

Foo findByPrimarykey(Object pk);
insertFoo(Foo);
deleteFoo(Foo);
updateFoo(Foo)
Collection getAll();
}

Re: Accessing index properties in javascript validator

[atta-ur rehman]

hello,

this is how i've done it:

textbox = document.getElementById("block[0]");
if (textbox.value )


so basically you use document.getElementById("property[0]") to get the
reference of html elment and then use .value or any other stuff on
this element.

hope this helps!

Re: Sharing Fields Between 2 Forms

[atta-ur rehman]

hi,

yes it's possible if both the form classes are inherited from the same
base class that has the common field getter/setter defined in it.

but why not have the same field in the both the forms? won't it be easier?

howdy Erik!

well, i was actually answering your original question about how to set
a var using  and scriptlet!

As Erez has mentioned you'd need to use some String.substring() to do the trick!

Re: Form with n columns and m raws

[atta-ur rehman]

Hello Damien,

have a new class called row:

public class Row {

 private List items;

 public Row(int size, String defaultValue) {
  items = new ArrayList(size);
  for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
   items.add(defaultValue);
  }
 }

 public Row(int size) {
  this(size, "");
 }

 public List getItems() {
  return items;
 }

 public void setItems(List items) {
  this.items = items;
 }

 public int size() {
  return items.size();
 }
}




now in your ActionForm class:

 public List getDemandGrid() {
  return demandGrid;
 }

 public void setDemandGrid(List list) {
  demandGrid = list;
 }


in your action class setup the initial grid:

List demandGrid = new ArrayList(demandCount);
for (int i = 0; i < ?; i++) {
 demandRow = new Row(quarters.size(), "OFF");
 demandGrid.add(deamndRow);
}

form.setDemandGrid(demandGrid);




in your jsp:

<%
height = businessRevForecastForm.getDemandGrid().size();
width = ((Row) businessRevForecastForm.getDemandGrid().get(0)).size();
grid = businessRevForecastForm.getDemandGrid();
%>
<% for (int y = 0; y < height; y++) { %>

<% for (int x = 0; x < width; x++) { %>

<% } %>

<% } %>


after submit, form.getDemandGrid() list should be populated!

hope this helps.

Subject: Form with n columns and m raws


Hello,

I can't find how to implement a form which include n*m checkbox.
I would like to get :

doc1 doc2 doc3 ... docn
client1 x x x
client2 x x x
client 3 x x x
...
client m x x x x

I managed to get the form but I can't retrieve the values in the validate
function

private String[][] enveloppes;

in reset :
enveloppes = new String[n][m];
for(int i = 0; i < m; i++) {
for (int j=0; j < n; j++) {
enveloppes[j][i] = "off";
}
}
and for example, i get an array of 2*10 elements.
but when I check the size of enveloppes into the validate function, I get a
strange size of 1*1.

There is also the getter/setter :
/**
 * @return Returns the enveloppes.
 */
public String[][] getEnveloppes() {
return enveloppes;
}
/**
 * @param enveloppes The enveloppes to set.
 */
public void setEnveloppes(String[][] enveloppes) {
this.enveloppes = enveloppes;
}

Does anyone know the reason why the enveloppe size isn't 2*10?
I tried to log a lot of stuff and was not able to determine anything. The
setter is apparently never called.
I guess Struts is in charge of populating the form when it is sent back by
the browser.
I managed to use array of 1 dimension with struts form, even if I had quite
a hard time to figure out how to make it works but
I can't find any solution for 2 dimensions arrays.

the generated html corresponding parts are :

...




...

Thanks for the help,

Damien

Re: Submitting Indexed Properties and List Size/Resize

[atta-ur rehman]

Hello Dave,

I think you're pretty close! I don't see why do you have to resize the list
in the setter though? Here is what I've done and it works:

public BlockEffort getBlock(int index) {
  while (blockEffortList.size() <= index) {
   blockEffortList.add(new BlockEffort());
  }
  return (BlockEffort) blockEffortList.get(index);
 }

 public void setBlock(int index, BlockEffort block) {
  this.blockEffortList.add(index, block);
 }

Now, maybe more struts-knowledgable can add something to my 2 c!

Re: Form tag problem

[atta-ur rehman]

okay, before i leave for the day, for path based mapping, you need  
something like:


controller
/do/

then all your urls must be like:
localhost/app/do/login
that's how i understand it. you may wanna have look at struts docos for  
this parameter.

The above code works (hooray), but if I try to change the url pattern

get the wrong action parameter value . . .

Re: Problem with displaying a subset of error messages using

[atta-ur rehman]

Hello Asif,

Now I havn't checked what I'm going to write here but am pretty sure it
should work.

First of all while adding your ActionError to ActionErrors use 'company' as
the key for the company errors and 'factory' for factory related error
messages.

like:

ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
errors.add('company', new ActionError());
errors.add('factory', new ActionError());

Subject: Problem with displaying a subset of error messages using



Hi Im have been using pretty standard code to display error messages so far,
eg:


 

 
  



But now, the problem I am facing is that I want to display a subset of my
error messages in one part of page, (e.g. Error messages that start with
"Company") and the rest of the messages (ones that start with "Factory") in
another section of the page.  I've read the docs but really havent been able
to figure this one out.  Can someone plese help me?  Thanks.

Hi Im using  shown below to iterate through an arraylist
(sitesList) in my actionform (OpportunitySitesForm).  This arraylist
contains a number of Site objects which have the properties siteName,
address1, and city.  This is getting displayed correctly.  Now when
processing the form, I am wondering whether in struts there is a way to
retrieve these as objects and automatically populate setSitesList(ArrayList)
method, rather than manually use request.getParameterValues for siteName,
address1, city, create individual Site objects, add the site objects to an

setSitesList(arraylist).


  



  


Any help would be most appreciated.  Thanks!

Hello Miguel,

You might want to search the archive for "indexed properties"; I think
that's what you're looking for.

Re: use of session object in Action Form?

Hi,

As far as I know, both the reset() and validate() method are passed the
request object. You could get the session from this request object.

Re: background process

[atta-ur rehman]

Hello Robert,

As far as I know Struts doen't provide anything like this. And actually it
should not!

You'd use Thread class to implement such a task that needs to return
immediately while running in the background.

Hope this helps.
