Re: [S2] Is it possible to get Struts' FilterDispatcher to serve up static files
I think that the struts2 FAQ is here http://struts.apache.org/2.0.6/docs/faqs.html I couldn't find anything relevant (after 3 mins). But in http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/strutsproperties.html i saw this: ### Used by FilterDispatcher ### If true then Struts serves static content from inside its jar. ### If false then the static content must be available at context_path/struts struts.serve.static=true which might help?

Re: [S2] Is it possible to get Struts' FilterDispatcher to serve up static files
I don't think so, if you set it to false, I think you will have to unzip all the dojo, and templates stuff into that folder, which is not desirable (unless you want to use your own version of Dojo) musachy On 2/28/07, Tim Azzopardi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think that the struts2 FAQ is here http://struts.apache.org/2.0.6/docs/faqs.html I couldn't find anything relevant (after 3 mins).

Re: [S2] Is it possible to get Struts' FilterDispatcher to serve up static files
Right, it can serve up static content from the classpath, but I want to do it from the webapp. Matt Musachy Barroso wrote: Quoting the doc: Common static content that is needed by the framework (JavaScript and CSS files, etc.) is served automatically by the FilterDispatcher filter.

Re: [S2] Is it possible to get Struts' FilterDispatcher to serve up static files
I came up with a StaticFilter (from http://issues.appfuse.org/browse/APF-431)
that seems to work (see code below). However, it causes another issue for
me. In my SiteMesh decorator, I'm including a messages.jsp that has calls to
the valueStack:
%-- ActionError Messages - usually set in Actions --%
s:if test=hasActionErrors()
div class=error id=errorMessages
s:iterator value=actionErrors
c:url value=
alt=fmt:message key=icon.warning/ class=icon /
s:property escape=false/br /
/s:iterator
/div
/s:if
%-- FieldError Messages - usually set by validation rules --%
s:if test=hasFieldErrors()
div class=error id=errorMessages
s:iterator value=fieldErrors
s:iterator value=value
c:url value=
alt=fmt:message key=icon.warning/ class=icon /
s:property escape=false/br /
/s:iterator
/s:iterator
/div
/s:if
When I return a static page, this JSP causes issue:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.struts2.views.jsp.TagUtils.getStack(TagUtils.java:58)
This works fine when I request a Struts Action. Is there any way to check
for the stack in my messages.jsp?
Thanks,
Matt

Hi Matt,
I'm not sure about your specific FilterDispatcher question, but we also
use
*.html as a default extension. We ended up copying all the dojo html files
that
we use into out own /WEB-INF/widgets directory and adding an extra
struts-dojo.xml file to our config:
!DOCTYPE struts PUBLIC
-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 2.0//EN
http://struts.apache.org/dtds/struts-2.0.dtd;
struts
package name=dojo namespace=/struts/dojo/src/widget/templates
extends=base
action name=*
result type=plainhtml/WEB-INF/widgets/{1}.html/result
/action
/package
package name=dojoEditor2
namespace=/struts/dojo/src/widget/templates/Editor2 extends=base
action name=*
result
type=plainhtml/WEB-INF/widgets/Editor2/{1}.html/result
/action
/package
package name=dojoEditor2Dialog
namespace=/struts/dojo/src/widget/templates/Editor2/Dialog
extends=base
action name=*
result
type=plainhtml/WEB-INF/widgets/Editor2/Dialog/{1}.html/result
/action
/package
/struts
It seems convoluted, but it's working. The other dojo files (css, js, etc)
are
