subject:"Action chaining"

My guess is Action chaining is meant for forwarding the request to struts 2
actions only ,not to legacy actions. Right? If yes, How can i forward the
request to non struts 2 action  from struts 2 action using result
annotation.

My understanding of action chaining after looking the source code of
ActionChainResult.java is that new Action context  is created  where value
stack and parameter map created for new action will contain the values from
valueStack/Parameter map for previous action value stack.(Probably request
attributes set in previous action wont be available inside in new action,
is that correct)?

Ken one more thing can we use action chaining to forward the request to
action which is not struts 2. i know action chaining shoukld be discourged

This was already addressed on SO:

We explained that chain was a result and that the chaining interceptor did
not process additional parameters and so they would not be included, if you
want empMode to be true then have it as a property of the action and set
it's value to true before chaining and the comments also covered it is
generally best to avoid chain if possible.

What is unclear?

Not setting instance member value in destination action using action chaining?

This is my struts 2 flow where i am using action chaining

JSP--->Action1--->Action2--->ResultJsp

With action chaining , my understanding is that request is forwarded from
action1 to action2.So if i pass some parameter from action1 to action 2
it should be set in new action instance variable(/value stack created for
new action).But its not happening

Below is my code in action1


@Result(name = "displayEmployee",type = "chain",
params = {
"namespace", "/employee",
"actionName", "Employee-lookup!search",
"empMode", "true"

})


@Action("display-employee!displayEmployee")
  public String displayEmployee() {
return "displayEmployee";
  }

Now in Action 2 i.e display-employee , i have boolean property with name
empMode. But i get the value as false though i should get it true
because i am passing it as attribute in result annotation. As my
understanding in action chaining, all request paramaters are
forwarded from action1 to action2. Basically new value stack is created for
action2 which contains the variables which were present
in action1. So why value true is not set for empMode property in action 2?

Using action-chaining as alias (URI-rewrite)

2012-08-07 Thread fustaki

I'm using chain results to produce a URI alias pattern.

here is a dummy example of laptop searcher


  {1}
  laptops.ftl


to mantain friendly URLs in a spanish-localized domain we want to use the
keyword "portatiles" instead of "laptops"

URI can be routed this way


  {1}/laptops


ActionSupport will always return SUCCESS and the param "brand" will move
from one action-name to the other.


I found this pattern useful when you need many of these aliases (one for
language) and you want to keep the routing configuration in a single
segment. All these aliases will act as a URI-rewrite module.


Is there a better way to achieve this behavior?

Note: Between versions 2.2.X and 2.3.X Struts introduced an escapeHTML4
operation to action-names (DefaultActionProxy class) and this pattern no
longer works (there is a double escaping I can't unescape..)

Re: How to avoid PreResultListener called twice in action chaining

2010-12-24 Thread Chris Pratt

Two ideas, provide your own wrapper around the HttpServletRequest that does
allow getting back the cookies (probably more work that it's worth), or add
the cookies as a request attribute that you can query to see which cookies
were added during this request.  If it comes back null, you're the first (or
only) in the chain, if not, then you have the list of cookies that were
added.  I'm not sure if you'll be able to overwrite an existing cookie, but
you could, institute a "first-come, first-served" rule.

There should be at least a way to check if request live along a chain
request, it could be possible by asking for size at stack.getRoot()

Save cookies outside the request then, and only add the cookie at the last
minute.

Save cookies outside the request then, and only add the cookie at the last
minute.

Can't be done. The HttpServletResponse does not provide a method to check if 
there is already a cookie on the request. And I need to put the cookie

How to avoid PreResultListener called twice in action chaining

2010-12-24 Thread JOSE L MARTINEZ-AVIAL

Hello all,
  I've developed an interceptor to add cookies to the response. It works as
follows:
[..]
public String intercept(ActionInvocation invocation) throws Exception {
invocation.addPreResultListener(this);
return invocation.invoke();
}

  public void beforeResult(ActionInvocation invocation, String resultCode) {
//log.debug("beforeResult start");
ActionContext ac = invocation.getInvocationContext();
HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse)
ac.get(StrutsStatics.HTTP_RESPONSE);
addCookiesToResponse(invocation.getAction(), response);
//log.debug("beforeResult end");
}
private void addCookiesToResponse(Object action, HttpServletResponse
response) {
//log.info("CookieProviderInterceptor "+action);
if (action instanceof CookieProvider) {


Map cookies = ((CookieProvider)
action).getCookies();
//log.info("CookieProviderInterceptor "+cookies);

if (cookies != null) {
Set> cookieSet =
cookies.entrySet();
for (Entry entry : cookieSet) {
CookieBean cookiebean = entry.getValue();
Cookie cookie = new Cookie(cookiebean.getCookieName(),
cookiebean.getCookieValue());
cookie.setMaxAge(cookiebean.getMaxAge());
cookie.setComment(cookiebean.getComment());
if (cookiebean.getDomain()!=null)
cookie.setDomain(cookiebean.getDomain());
cookie.setPath(cookiebean.getPath());
cookie.setSecure(cookiebean.getSecure());
cookie.setVersion(cookiebean.getVersion());
//log.info("adding "+cookie);
response.addCookie(cookie);
}
}
}
}

So the idea is that the Action implements CookieProvider, returning a map of
cookies, and put the cookies in the response. It works well, but I'm having
some problems when I chain two actions, if both of them are CookieProvider,
and both return a cookie with the same name. My idea was be that the first
cookie would be overwritten by the second one, but in fact the response has
both cookies, with the same name. After giving it a thought, it makes sense,
so probably I'm doing something wrong. Any insight on how to do this?

TIA

Hi Musachy

At line 301 if (result == null && resultCode != null) result is an instance
of ServletDispatcherResult with a location attribute of
/WEB-INF/content/foo.jsp and resultCode is a string with value "bar". The
comparison fails and jumps to line 317 returning /WEB-INF/content/foo.jsp

If they are in the same package that should work, all I can advise is
to put a breakpoint in ConventionUnknownHandler, line 301 and see what

Convention Plugin - Action Chaining

2009-12-10 Thread RogerV


I'm trying to get action chaining to work as described in the section
chaining at http://struts.apache.org/2.1.6/docs/convention-plugin.html. My
Foo action and bar actions are listed below. What happens is that when Foo
is called, it correctly displays foo.jsp. When foo.jsp is submitted it fills
in the value of platformId, I see the message "Platform selected" on the
console and then foo.jsp is redisplayed and I don't see the message "Foo-Bar
is called". If I change return "bar" to a nonsense string that doesn't refer
to anything, I still get foo.jsp redisplayed when I would expect a "No
Result Defined for Action Foo and result " exception.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Regards

public class Foo extends ActionSupport {

private int platformId;
private Services services;

public String execute() {

System.out.println("SelectPlatform.execute()");
if (platformId > 0) {
System.out.println("Platform selected");
return "bar";
}

return SUCCESS;
}

public  List getPlatforms() {
return services.listAllPlatforms();
}

public int getPlatformId() {
return platformId;
}

public void setPlatformId(int platformId) {
this.platformId = platformId;
}
}

public class EditPlatformData extends BaseAction {

private int platformId;

@Action("foo-bar")
public String execute() {
System.out.println("Foo-Bar is called");
return SUCCESS;
}

public int getPlatformId() {
return platformId;
}

public void setPlatformId(int platformId) {
this.platformId = platformId;
}
}

AW: Issue in Action Chaining

2009-04-22 Thread Anastasios Patrikis

Hi Satya,

in our project we have a base action with methods to read/write session 
attributes:

ServletActionContext.getRequest().getSession.getAttribute(name)
ServletActionContext.getRequest().getSession.setAttribute(name, object)

This may help.

Anastasios.

No it doesn't work.  Chain is not accepting any of the parameters strings.
 Its going to the global error page directly.

Re: Issue in Action Chaining

Hi Wesw,
Thanks for the reply.  Yes, I meant to say testChain().  Thanks for that.

So, how is the old data being retained.  Does it take it from the http
request and recreates the new instance?

If that is the case, what other options do I have to get the changed data
into the chained method?

Thanks

Satya

I'm not sure if this applies to the chain result, but you could give
it a shot:

The configuration of test2 points to method execute1, but your action has 
executeChain(). I assume that's a typo. My (somewhat educated) guess is that 
when you chain to the next action, even though it is the same class, a new 
instance is created. In the new instance, setData(String) is never called 
since it is only called in the execute method.

Issue in Action Chaining

Hi All,
I have a Action class

class BaseAction extends ActionSupport {
private Sting data;

public void getData() {
return this.data;
}

   public String setData(String data){
   this.data = data;
   }
}

class Action extends BaseAction{
public String execute() throws Exception {
System.out.println(getData());
setData("abc");
return "chain";
}

public String executeChain() throws Exception {
System.out.println(getData());
return "success"
}
}

xml configuration:


test2








http://localhost:8080/test/test.action?data=ball

Output of execute:  ball
Output of execute1:  ball

I am expecting the out of execute1 as "abc"

Am I missing something please help me resolve the issue.

Re: Convention Plugin and Action Chaining

If the result is "get" and the source action is target is "save", then
the "target" action has to be "save-get" (yours is "get").

Re: Convention Plugin and Action Chaining

2009-03-10 Thread Edward Song

Thanks Musachy for your prompt response.

Makes total sense.

However, I now tried the following based on your reply

GetAction.execute() returns ActionSupport.SUCCESS.
forwards to
get-success.jsp  (renamed get.jsp, so that it would not be found in the
instance below)

SaveAction.execute() returns "get"  (in hopes of chaining GetAction)

However, after SaveAction.execute(), I get an exception stating that the
result "get" is not found.
"No result defined for action com.company.web.actions.SaveAction and result
get"

Note that, both of these guys are in the same package, and therefore in the
same namespace.
Through the config-browser, I did verify that "get" is not one of the listed
result types not found.

The problem in your case, is that Convention tries to find
"get-get.jsp" and then tries "get.jsp", which it will find, so it will
never chain to the action, but rather dispatch to the jsp. Chaining
only works when no result is found.

Yes, you can chain actions if they are in the same package:

Convention Plugin and Action Chaining

2009-03-10 Thread Edward Song

Hi all,

This question concerns the Convention Plugin, specifically in regards to
Action Chaining.

I am using Struts 2.1.6

I have the following package structure.

 com.company.web.actions.administrators.GetAction
(/administrators/get)
 com.company.web.actions.administrators.SaveAction
(/administrators/save)

After SaveAction.execute(), I wanted to use action chaining and forward
to GetAction.execute().

I was able to get this to work via annotations in my SaveAction class.  The
execute() method returns ActionSupport.SUCCESS.

@Results({

@Result(name=ActionSupport.*SUCCESS*, type="chain", location="get")

})
However, it seems through the examples, that annotations may not be required
for simple action chaining.
Can we return an action name, effectively chainining the actions together?
I had attempted returning "get" in my SaveAction.execute(), thinking that it
would action chain GetAction.
The result was forwarded to my /WEB-INF/content/administrators/get.jsp, but
never actually ran GetAction.execute() .

Any idea as to what my SaveAction.execute() method should return to
accomplish simple action chaining without the annotation above?

Thank you in advance.

I forgot to mention that we're setting the test value in struts.xml
initially (in the first action in the chain).  That's the value that
doesn't get modified in this test case.

2009-01-30 Thread Becky . L . O'Sullivan

Because Showcase is so packed with goodies something else may be causing
chaining to actually work.  If you try that test case standalone (after
modifying the POM XML for 2.1.6) chaining doesn't work (the value stays the
initial value).

Musachy,

In the bug report, under Test 1 instructions it's shows it working against
2.1.2  In the second set of instructions (accidentally also called Test 1)
it details how to make it not work by swapping over to 2.1.6.

Did you by any chance run this test case standalone, using the second set
of instructions?

Thanks for the testcase. I am looking at it, and there is a very
similar case in showcase, but it seems fine.

http://localhost:8080/struts2-showcase/actionchaining/actionChain1!input

the output is:

Action Chain 1 Property 1: Property Set In Action Chain 1
Action Chain 2 Property 1: Property Set in Action Chain 2
Action Chain 3 Property 1: Property set in Action Chain 3

Do you see any difference from your testcase (which I haven't run yet)

Re: [S2] possible bug in 2.1.6 w/ action chaining

2009-01-29 Thread Musachy Barroso

Thanks for the testcase. I am looking at it, and there is a very
similar case in showcase, but it seems fine.

http://localhost:8080/struts2-showcase/actionchaining/actionChain1!input

the output is:

Action Chain 1 Property 1: Property Set In Action Chain 1
Action Chain 2 Property 1: Property Set in Action Chain 2
Action Chain 3 Property 1: Property set in Action Chain 3

Do you see any difference from your testcase (which I haven't run yet)

We use action chaining because it suits a particular requirement we had for

However, after upgrading, we're seeing that the value stack isn't holding

RE: [S2] solution - Action chaining and validation problem

2008-09-18 Thread Becky . L . O'Sullivan

The culprit wasn't the validation interceptor, but the workflow
interceptor.  Its only job is to stop the chain (and call input on
everything) when validation errors occur.  I removed it entirely and
everything is working as we need it to.  This worked for us because,
regardless of errors, we need our entire chain to go to completion.

I could have used the excludeMethods parameter, but it would have been * .
(so it was better to remove it entirely)

Thanks for the help,
-B

RE: [S2] Action chaining and validation problem

2008-09-17 Thread Becky . L . O'Sullivan

I'm referencing defaultStack.  Can I simply pass that parameter to the
default stack and the validator interceptor will pick it up?
We don't actually use xml-based validation.  We set action errors on our
own.  Do you think it'll still work even though that interceptor is
specifically for xml based validation?

Is there no setting on the chain interceptor to proceed "business as usual"
through all downstream action methods if one encounters an error?

Thanks,
-B

RE: [S2] Action chaining and validation problem

2008-09-17 Thread Becky . L . O'Sullivan

We actually have no validation XML files (we're setting error fields
manually).  We're not performing validation using that approach, but we
want to remain open to doing so in the future.   The validation interceptor
is in the struts-default stack, which is what our packages extend from.

From what Dave said it sounds like short circuiting is not our solution.
Is there perhaps a setting we're missing on the chaining interceptor to
tell it not to call validation/input on downstream chained actions?

I read a similar thread where someone suggested reordering the interceptor
stack so that validation is above chain, because when chain is first it
copies action errors into the next action in the chain.  I've started
making a custom interceptor stack to try this, but my guess is the action
that JSP result won't see the action errors from the one action that *does*
set action error messages because they won't get copied down the stack.

It seems like the framework is calling input on any downstream chained
action if action errors are placed on the value stack by an upstream
chained action.  We even have some actions called via s:action (execute
results = true) in the JSP result and it's trying to call input even on
those actions.

My understanding is that validation short-circuiting means that additional 
validations for the same field won't be run as soon as the first validation 
error is encountered (plus rules for plain vs. field validators).

See 
http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/validation.html#Validation-ShortCircuitingValidator

This won't affect the invocation chain at all. I'd be interesting in clarifying 
this--where is the documentation that supports what you're saying?

[S2] Action chaining and validation problem

2008-09-17 Thread Becky . L . O'Sullivan


Without going into a lot of detail, suffice to say our application benefits
from action chaning, and we are using it in the documented way.

We've begun to go through and add the validation to some actions, but we
have run into a snag with validation and action chaining.

Whenever one action in the chain encounters an error as a result of
validation all other actions are affected.  Struts then calls the input
method on all downstream actions.  However, some actions don't override
input, and by calling only the input method on those actions Struts is not
calling the intended method (be it execute() or a named method), and those
actions are not executing properly.  Not only are downstream actions
affected, but simple actions called using the

More than one year later, I have the exact same problem.

If the original poster has found a solution, or if anyone else knows how to
solve this issue, I'd be very glad!

I have tried Action Chaining the result:
@Result(name="input",type=ActionChainResult.class,value="product" ,params=
{"method","getOne"}),

However, Struts will try to find the "input" result of the chained action
(product), and will never reach the method.

Re: Struts 2: Action chaining behaving differently when validations fire

2008-05-06 Thread Paweł Badeński

I just came up with another idea. You could also try to move
validation up the stack, so it's happening before chain.. It might be
tricky tough (as Struts spec states: "Sometimes the order of the
Interceptors makes a difference.").

I'd suspect that validation errors are being chained to another
action, so after the flow has been forwarded to testA it never reaches
the "display" method. I'm not sure if you can get around it other
(easy) way than removing validation interceptors from testA.

Struts 2: Action chaining behaving differently when validations fire

2008-05-05 Thread egetchell

All,

I’m experiencing some interesting behavior when forwarding via action
chaining as a result of input validation.

In a non-error situation, action chaining works as expected – that is the
service method of the chained action is invoked as expected. However, what
I am noticing is that when a validation error fires, the service method of
the chained action is bypassed entirely – instead the request is forwarded
to the result defined in the struts mapping of the action class.

To test this, I created two simple classes, testA and testB. testA is used
to build the data to display a page and testB is used to collect the data
from the page.

The Struts configuration is the following (Spring is being used as the
object factory):

testA.jsp

testA
display

The display method of testA always returns INPUT.
The submit method of B always returns INPUT.

This allows me to test the same result of INPUT – one invoked via an input
validation error and the second during normal application flow.

When testB is invoked and no validation errors fire (INPUT is returned from
the service method), I see the following methods invoked on the back-end:
TestB.submit
TestA.display

However, when testB is invoked and validation errors fire, TestA.display is
not invoked. Instead, the input mapping is read and the request is
forwarded to testA.jsp per the mapping.

Ideally, I’d like the testA action to fire when validation fires.

Action chaining problem

hi

i've a problem with action chaining. i've defined a xml action in a xml 
file called struts-ordini.xml with the following result


ResiSelection

the target action is in another xml file that is imported before the 
"struts-ordini.xml".
i can't understand why the chaining fails, reloading the page as per 
"success" without even giving any error.

I still don't know what additional information you
want. You have an action, one of its results is
type="chain" and it goes to another action.

Have you tried it to see if it does what you want it
to? There isn't much more to add than what's already

Re: Manually obtain previous action parameters after action "chaining"?

2007-11-08 Thread jjgould

There was a good suggestion about using the MessageStoreInterceptor, but I am
really trying to avoid using Session-based storage for my application,
having been indoctrinated into the RESTful camp at the 2007 Colorado
Software Summit :)

I just discovered that both actions (the one that gets the validation errors
and the target of the chain result) are on the OGNL stack.  So, here is what
I did:

> @Override
> public String execute()
> throws Exception
> {
> ValueStack stack = ActionContext.getContext().getValueStack();
> Object penultimate = stack.findValue( "[1].top" );
> if( penultimate instanceof ValidationAware )
> {
> ValidationAware previousAction = (ValidationAware)
> penultimate;
> this.setActionErrors( previousAction.getActionErrors() );
> this.setActionMessages( previousAction.getActionMessages() );
> this.setFieldErrors( previousAction.getFieldErrors() );
> }
> return SUCCESS;
> }
> 

I like this approach because it seems clean.  But, I am wondering, given the
fact that bean properties are set in the second action, why aren't
"actionErrors", "actionMessages", and "fieldErrors" seen as bean properties
that get automatically set by the ChainingInterceptor?

Anyway, this solution is working for me, and I think I should abstract this
out into an interceptor so that I don't have to pollute my action methods
with this logic.  Does anyone have any feedback about this approach?  Am I
abusing the OGNL stack?  Am I breaking semantics of validation handling?  Is
it possible that the first action will not be located on the stack as
"[1].top"?

Thanks for your help!

Re: Manually obtain previous action parameters after action "chaining"?

2007-11-07 Thread Gary Affonso

You can preserve errors and messages from one action to another, across 
a redirect, with the MessageStoreInterceptor.  See here:


  http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/message-store-interceptor.html

This lets you avoid chaining which, of course, is usually evil. :-)

In my case, action "one" is used to view an object that is an aggregate of a
lot of smaller objects.  Action "two" is used to add a new component object
to the collection.  However, when there is a validation error on the new
object, the application needs to forward back to action "one" to redisplay
the object and it needs to have the field error messages.  The struts.xml
looks like this:

Any tips you can offer are greatly appreciated.

One other thing to try, which you may have started to do, would be to
save the object as a request attribute, as an alternative to the chain
result. In this case, both Actions would have setRequest and
getRequest methods.

ActionOne
 getRequest().put("searchParameter",getSearchParameter());

ActionTwo
 setSearchParameter( (SearchParameter) getRequest().get("searchParameter")
);

The JVM is optimized for property methods, and overall it's a better
practice to go through the getters and setters than access fields
directly.

You could try exposing ActionSupport's

your first action; I'm not quite sure how the chain
interceptor decides how to copy properties though.

because of any bean properties, but because I need the action errors, action
messages, and field errors that may have been placed there by my validation.

In my case, action "one" is used to view an object that is an aggregate of a
lot of smaller objects.  Action "two" is used to add a new component object
to the collection.  However, when there is a validation error on the new
object, the application needs to forward back to action "one" to redisplay
the object and it needs to have the field error messages.  The struts.xml
looks like this:

{1}
/WEB-INF/jsp/case/viewCase.jsp

{1}

{1}/view

{1}/view

Any tips you can offer are greatly appreciated.

Re: Manually obtain previous action parameters after action "chaining"?

2007-10-11 Thread Ted Husted

Binding two Action classes together that way sounds like a "slippery
slope" to me. It seems like a better practice to rely on standard
JavaBean semantics, and access the values that need to be brought
forward through the usual get and set methods.

One other thing to try, which you may have started to do, would be to
save the object as a request attribute, as an alternative to the chain
result. In this case, both Actions would have setRequest and
getRequest methods.

ActionOne
 getRequest().put("searchParameter",getSearchParameter());

ActionTwo
 setSearchParameter( (SearchParameter) getRequest().get("searchParameter") );

The JVM is optimized for property methods, and overall it's a better
practice to go through the getters and setters than access fields
directly.

Re: Manually obtain previous action parameters after action "chaining"?

2007-10-11 Thread Igor Vlasov


Thank you for the answer.

I see that properties are copied. But the property must be in javaBean spec.
otherwise subpropirties are not copied. I think that i can get previos
Action and manualy get whole property as object. The copy process in
ChainInterceptor rely on OGNL and  look like "magik".

If there is not any ability to get a previous action  and its properties
manually after ChainResult, I agree to rely on  ChainInterceptor.

Re: Manually obtain previous action parameters after action "chaining"?

2007-10-11 Thread Ted Husted

The Action itself is not copied over, the PROPERTIES are copied. If
the properties in common are copied forward, then there should be no
need to address the prior Action class directly. Any methods that need
to be called by more than one Action should be moved to a base support
class that the Actions can share.

Also, there is rarely a need to use HTTP semantic in a Struts 2
Action. The SessionAware and RequestAware interceptors expose the
session and request attributes as entries in Maps. request.getSession
doesn't work, because the interceptor doesn't pass the HttpRequest
object but a map the proxies the attributes in request scope. If the
Action needs access to the session attributes, then implement
setSession(Map).

Re: Manually obtain previous action parameters after action "chaining"?

2007-10-11 Thread Igor Vlasov

1. I have "actionOne"

public class ActionOne extends ActionSupport implements ServletRequestAware{
  protected HttpServletRequest request;

  private SearchParameter searchData=new SearchParameter();//My complex
object

  public String execute() throws Exception{
 //fill searchData with parameters. Many many parameters.
  return this.SUCCESS;
  }

  // this is for ability to copy object searchData to next chain action 
  public SearchParameter getSearchData() {
return searchData;
  }

  public void setServletRequest(HttpServletRequest httpServletRequest) {
request = httpServletRequest; 
  }

}

2.

  doSearch
  search.jsp 

2000
500 

  wait_search.jsp
  search_result.jsp

3.
public class ActionTwo  extends ActionSupport implements ServletRequestAware
{
  protected HttpServletRequest request;
  private SearchParameter searchData;
  private HttpSession sess;
  public String execute() throws Exception{
 sess = request.getSession();
 boolean v =(searchData!=null);// ok. we recieve a copy of searchData
from previos action
 try {  Thread.currentThread().sleep(6*1000);  } catch
(InterruptedException ex) {}
 sess = request.getSession(); // return null object!!! why ?
 return this.SUCCESS;
  }
  /*this work and  searchData object has been copied from previos action */
  public void setSearchData(SearchParameter searchData) {

The desired behaviour:

public class ActionTwo  extends ActionSupport implements ServletRequestAware

  private HttpSession sess;
  public String execute() throws Exception{
 SearchParameter searchData=null;
 try {  Thread.currentThread().sleep(6*1000);  } catch

 //
  ActionOne prev=null;
  prev=(ActionOne)getPreviousAction();
  searchData=prev.getSearchData();
 //
 sess = request.getSession(); // return null object!!! why ?
 return this.SUCCESS;

 I can use ChainingInterceptor to copy properties of "one" action to
 "two"
 action.

 I get behaviour : one.param->two.param.
 But the property "param" must be in  javaBeans specification(have
 setter
 and
 getter method for each property).

 Can i MANUALLY get object for "one" action or exact "one.property" from

I have very complex object as a property to copy and i MUST make every part

The second cause is process of copying. It is sometime like "magic" and copy

The use case for the chain result is that JavaBean properties on
ActionTwo that match JavaBean properties on ActionOne are copied
forward. This sounds like the same use case that you describe, and
it's unclear why it isn't working, or why you would need to do

I try this in action "two".execute():

ValueStack stack=ActionContext.getContext().getValueStack();
CompoundRoot root = stack.getRoot();
List list = new ArrayList(root);


This list does not contain my previous action "one". It contains only
TextProviderObject.

Can you write  how to "grab the ValueStck and traverse it up"?

You can, if you grab the ValueStck and traverse up it till you get to your

Can i MANUALLY get object for "one" action or exact "one.property" from
:"execute()" method of action "two"?

It's not a bug, it's a feature!

But that's what the validation stuff is for; if
there's errors, go back to the input, regardless of
where the errors came from. That requires less work on
the programmers side: add an error, it goes back to
the input that caused the error.

If you want to circumvent default behavior just
redefine your interceptor stack, although you'll lose
the built-in validation handling then.

Re: [s2] problem with action chaining returning "input" result

2007-05-07 Thread Allen Gilliland


Thanks Laurie, that was what I needed to do.

Turns out that my action was setting an action error before doing its 
chaining and so when validation was triggered on the chained action it 
was thinking an error had occurred and forcing the "input" result.


So, now all I really need to know is if there is a way that I can just 
flat out disable all of struts2's validation stuff but still have my 
actions extend ActionSupport?  Is there something I can put in my 
struts.xml file to prevent validation from running against my actions?


I would also technically consider this a bug because IMO I should be 
allowed to set action errors and chain to other actions without having 
validation break my chaining.  My guess is that the validation code is 
using the hasActionErrors() method to determine if the 'input' result 
should be sent after validation, but that seems suboptimal.  It would be 
better if the validation actually tracked if it had actually failed any 
of its validation checks and only modify the result then, not just 
because there is an action error.

You said you don't have any conversions configured but remember that 
Struts will apply default converters if you have any setters on the 
action that take non-String arguments (assuming the request includes an 
attribute that matches that setter).


I would suggest setting up an 'input' result pointing to a simple JSP 
page with s:actionerror, s:actionmessage and s:debug tags on it. Maybe 
you'll find a clue as to what's wrong there.

public class Members extends UIAction 


What does UIAction look like (specifically with
regards to interfaces implements and superclasses)?


UIAction is a base class which all of my actions extend and basically it 
just builds some additional application specific features on top of the 
ActionSupport class.  I won't include the whole thing, but here's a 
sample ...


public abstract class UIAction extends ActionSupport
implements UIActionPreparable, UISecurityEnforced {

// a common result name used to indicate the result should list 
some data

public static final String LIST = "list";

// the authenticated user accessing this action, or null if client 
is not logged in

private UserData authenticatedUser = null;

// the weblog this action is intended to work on, or null if no 
weblog specified

private WebsiteData actionWeblog = null;

// page title
protected String pageTitle = null;


public void myPrepare() {
// no-op
}

public String getAbsoluteSiteURL() {
return RollerRuntimeConfig.getAbsoluteContextURL();
}

// access an application config property
public String getProp(String key) {
// first try static config
String value = RollerConfig.getProperty(key);
if(value == null) {
value = RollerRuntimeConfig.getProperty(key);
}

return (value == null) ? key : value;
}

public void addError(String errorKey) {
addActionError(getText(errorKey));
}

public void addError(String errorKey, String param) {
addActionError(getText(errorKey, errorKey, param));
}

public void addError(String errorKey, List args) {
addActionError(getText(errorKey, args));
}

// list of locales to display in web form dropdowns
public List getLocalesList() {
return UIUtils.getLocales();
}

// list of time zones to display in web form dropdowns
public List getTimeZonesList() {
return UIUtils.getTimeZones();
}

}


As I said above, all my actions extend UIAction, so I would think if 
there were a problem there then i would be seeing it on all my actions.


The 2 interfaces it implements are custom interfaces which work 
basically the same way the struts2 XXXAware interfaces work.  They are 
coupled with custom interceptors which take a look at the request/action 
before the action method is executed and do some prework.  This is what 
they look like ...


public interface UIActionPreparable {

public void myPrepare();
}

public interface UISecurityEnforced {

public boolean isUserRequired();

public boolean isWeblogRequired();

public String requiredUserRole();

public short requiredWeblogPermissions();
}


From the debugging output I can see that when struts2 is trying to 
execute the action I am chaining to it never actually gets to my custom 
interceptors, so I don't think the problem is there.  Plus, none of my 
custom interceptors return "input" as a result.


not sure what else it could be :(

There must be *some* reason validation is running.

i have a simple config, like the examples in the documentation ...


.Members



.MembersInvite
.disabled
members


when i execute the 'invite' action it stores an invitation in the db 
and adds an action message to notify the user and then i return 
SUCCESS, which should just chain to the execute() method of my 
'members' action right?


well when i do this everything works properly in the 'invite' action 
and through debugging i can see that my 'members' action class is 
instantiated as if it's going to be executed, but the execute() method 
is never called and struts2 gives an error about not being able to 
find the "input" result on my 'members' action.  why is this happening?


No result defined for action 
org.apache.roller.ui.authoring.struts2.Members and result input


Well, firstly, you don't have a result named 'input' on your members 
action... but I guess you're more interested in why Struts is looking 
for it :-)


yep, and i don't need an 'input' result on that action.  the baffling 
part to me is why struts2 is even trying to look for that result when 
nothing in my action returns that result.





Does the members action have any conversion or validation configured? 
Struts will automatically forward to the 'input' result if errors occur 
during conversion or validation. If that's not it, you'll need to post 
more details, such as your action code and anything written to the logs 
as the request is being processed.


nope, no conversion or validation.  i ran into the problem with the 
validation interceptor when i first started working with struts2 and 
mistakenly had a validation() method in my action without realizing 
struts2 was going to execute that method without my knowledge, but i 
removed all my old validation() methods so i know it's not that.


i'll post the skeleton of the action class if that will help, but it's 
quite simple.


public class Members extends UIAction implements ParameterAware {

private static Log log = LogFactory.getLog(Members.class);

// raw parameters from request
private Map parameters = Collections.EMPTY_MAP;


public Members() {
log.debug("Instantiating members action");
}

public String execute() {

log.debug("Showing weblog members page");

return LIST;
}

public String save() {

log.debug("Attempting to processing weblog permissions updates");

... do work ...

return LIST;
}

// convenience for accessing a single parameter with a single value
public String getParameter(String key) ...

public Map getParameters() ...

public void setParameters(Map parameters) ...
}


here's the full debugging output from my logs showing that the first 
action successfully completes and returns a SUCCESS result which chains 
to the second action, but I can't figure out what is causing struts2 to 
bail on the chain execution before even calling my action method ...
