Re: Validation while using LookupDispatchAction
You might be interested in checking out ValidatorLookupDispatchAction (http://struts.whoisandy.com/archives/2005/05/27/validatorlookupdispatchaction.php).

DynaValidatorActionForm wants to validate based on the path, so you have to give it different paths to work with. If you can't or don't want to have different paths mapped to the same action and form, then a different solution is in order. I doubt you are alone... I wonder if someone has written a flavor of ValidatorForm that uses the dispatch parameter to switch validation. None comes to mind, but search the list archives and the Wiki to see if there is already something out there. And of course you're always free to override 'validate' in your form bean and make it do exactly what you want, or to turn off automatic validation altogether and call it from your Action when and where you want it to happen. If you're having trouble deciding what the best approach would be, tell us more about your project and I'm sure there will be no shortage of opinions. (Hey, Mark, welcome back!

RE: Validation while using LookupDispatchAction
I would probably use ValidWhen test ( (method!= "validateMe") or (*this* != null) ) Thanks and Regards, Nitish Kumar -Original Message- From: Vicky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 23, 2005 7:55 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Validation while using LookupDispatchAction My action class extends LookupDispatchAction, which has different methods in it. In struts-config.xml i have parameter method as we all know. My problem is; in my validation.xml i do have to perform different validations for different methods, how do I distinguish or find out which method is called to perform validation for that method only? struts-config.xml validation.xml in above code in validaton.xml i need to pass method name for which i want this validation to take place not for all methods. Something like how do I do this? or any other way. I would appreciate prompt response with examples. Thanks in advance, __ Yahoo! Mail Mobile Take Yahoo! Mail with you!

Because you're using DynaValidator_Action_Form, the framework will match up the 'path' attribute from struts-config.xml with the 'name' attribute from validation.xml. I do it by having different URL patterns mapped to the same LookupDispatchAction using the same DynaValidatorActionForm. In the tag, only the 'path' and 'input' differ (so 'getInputForward()' works, no matter which path you came in with, you go to the right form-- it's a four-step wizard.) ... ... Then in validation.xml, you use the path for the form "name" (which is slightly confusing...): ... ... And then you can have different fields validated for different paths, even though it's the same Action and the same Form. All my forms are POSTed, so I wouldn't have had ?parameter=someText in any case. HTH, -- Wendy Smoak - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
