RE: Validator not getting called and I can't see why [resolved]

2006-08-07 Thread Givler, Eric
I had a similar problem here.  I used formdef to define the page attribute and 
didn't specify the type.  When the cast was made inside of validator, it was 
unable to cast the value to an Integer.  The field was a string containing the 
page number.  Couldn't it use Integer.valueOf?

OK, I got all this figured out in the end.

The validator was being called but because of problems with the page 
attribute in the form the validator appears to have been receiving a 
page value of zero and hence not validating the items on pages 1 or two 
because neither 1 nor 2 are less that or equal to zero! When I did get 
the validator to be called it still wasn't working right but I got that 
fixed too.

Anyhow, I did up a blog post about it which can be found here: 
http://www.bartbusschots.ie/blog/?p=262

If people thing an edited version of this would be a useful addition to 
the Wiki work away, just credit me or link to the original blog post and 
I'll be more than happy.

Cheers for your help guys,

Bart.

No, I don't use clientside validation on my forms. It's going to the

I can't see any difference between this action/form/validation and all 
the other ones that are working.


This is the form:

 type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm">

  
  
  
  
  
 

This is the action:

 type="vtie.portal.mentor.CreateStudentGroupPrepareAction"

input="/home/mentor/addStudentGroupForm.jsp">
  path="/do/mentor/createAnonymousStudentGroup" />
  path="/home/mentor/getStudentNamesForm.jsp" />

  
 

And this is the validation:

 
  
   mask^[a-zA-Z]+[\w\ 
]*$

   
  
  
   
  
  
   
  
 

Can anyone see something obviously wrong there?

Re: Re: Validator not getting called and I can't see why

2006-08-04 Thread Matt Kurjanowicz

Just curios - that's the only createStudentGroupForm instance in your
struts config?

Since DynaValidatorForm extends DynaActionForm it inherits' the
DynaActionForm toString - which always just starts off with
"DynaActionForm[..." - in the action, can you log the actual class
(form.getClass().getName()) to see what the actual class is - it could
be that struts thinks you only have a DynaActionForm instead of a
DynaValidatorForm.

Matt

Validator is throwing a wobbler like you said. You have the DEBUG
message from the RequestProcessor before it does validation - but
there should be one after saying either there were errors or that
everything was OK. You need to find out what the exception being
thrown is for - create a custom DynaValidatorForm and trap the
exception and get the cause.

The other thing that someone else pointed out is that you have used
the "page" attribute in your validation.xml, but not defined it as a
property for your DynaValidatorForm - so maybe its something to do
with that.

Anyway the root of the problem is the exception being throw - find out
what that is and it should shed a whole lot more light on the problem.

Niall

This is the form:

  
   
   
   
   
   
  

This is the action:

  
   
   
   
  

And this is the validation:

  
   
mask^[a-zA-Z]+[\w\
]*$

   
   

   
   

   
  

Can anyone see something obviously wrong there?

Cheers,

Bart.

Try turning on logging in debug mode, should give you more info about
what its doing.

Sure you can, just follow Eric's example and subclass DynaValidatorForm.
Then change your form-bean declaration to

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the reply but I'm using a DynaValidatorForm so I don't have a
class to override things in. I would assume that DynaValidatorForm
validates correctly because I use it all over the place. It's just this
one action that's not validating and I just can't see what's different
here.

At least then you know it was called, but may not have done what you thought it 
should:

package view.struts.forms;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm;

public class Page_6_Form extends DynaValidatorForm {
   private static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(Page_6_Form.class);

   public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping, 
HttpServletRequest request) {


  log.info( request.getRemoteUser() + " *** validate() - Start ***");

  // step in here with debug   
  ActionErrors errors = super.validate(mapping, request);


  // look at results of errors object as watch on first test
  log.info( request.getRemoteUser() + " *** validate - End, errors= " +
( errors == null ? "0" : errors.size()+"" ) + " ***");  

  return ( errors );

This is the form:

  type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm">

   
   
   
   
   
  

This is the action:

  type="vtie.portal.mentor.CreateStudentGroupPrepareAction" 
name="createStudentGroupForm" scope="session" validate="true" 
input="/home/mentor/addStudentGroupForm.jsp">
   path="/do/mentor/createAnonymousStudentGroup" />
   path="/home/mentor/getStudentNamesForm.jsp" />

   
  

And this is the validation:

  
   
mask^[a-zA-Z]+[\w\ 
]*$


   
   

   
   

   
  

Can anyone see something obviously wrong there?

Can you override the validate() method inside your form and just call 
super.validate(), then see what the error collection has?
At least then you know it was called, but may not have done what you thought it 
should:

package view.struts.forms;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors;

HttpServletRequest request) {

  log.info( request.getRemoteUser() + " *** validate() - Start ***");

  // step in here with debug   
  ActionErrors errors = super.validate(mapping, request);

  // look at results of errors object as watch on first test

2006-08-03 Thread Matt Kurjanowicz

Do you have the property "page" being submitted with your form:


Also, are you sure that the validation isn't working and the error
messages aren't getting displayed?  Can you send the jsp source?
