RE: Struts 2 - Repopulate controls when validation fails
Setting the s:action's ignoreContextParams to true partially resolves the issue
I am having. Here's my pseudo jsp now...
s:form name=myAction
s:textfield name=foo0/
s:action name=languages ignoreContextParams=true executeResult=true/
s:textfield name=foo1/
s:submit/
/s:form
Now, the troublesome second invocation of MyAction.setFoo1() is not occurring,
but my issue is only partially resolved because I still do not understand what
is happening. What is the relationship between s:action and the s:form it is
inside that causes MyAction.setFoo1() to be invoked 'again' after s:action is
finished with its execution?

The approach I am taking is from the Struts 2 FAQ...

Why should it be avoided?

Hi,
As I know, use of s:action tag should be avoided, the better option is
to use Preparable interface, you can use prepareMethodName() method
also.

I'm following the How do we repopulate controls when validation fails
FAQ located at...
http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/how-do-we-repopulate-controls-when-validation-fails.html
Of the two methods it suggests I am trying to use the 'action tag'
method. Using the simple example from the FAQ works fine, but once I move
beyond the simple and try to drop my Languages control inside the tag
of another action I have problems.
Here's my pseudo JSP (note MyAction)...
MyAction implements validateable and I am validating foo0 and foo1 inside
the validate() method. Here's my validate() code...
public void validate() {
if (foo0 == null || foo0.length() == 0)
addFieldError(foo0, Foo0 is required);
else
foo0 = foo0 + VALIDATED;
if (foo1 == null || foo1.length() == 0)
addFieldError(foo1, Foo1 is required);
else
foo1 = foo1 + VALIDATED;
}
The important thing to note about my validation code is that when the
validation succeeds the data entered by the user is updated with the word
VALIDATED. This may seem like an odd thing to do, but it's part of the
requirements of the project I'm working on.
Visiting http://localhost/MyAction/myAction_input.action works great. The
page draws, foo0 is empty, the languages control has languages to choose
from, foo1 is empty, the submit button appears. Submitting the form is
when I get into problems. Here are three submit paths and their results...
1. foo0 is empty, foo1 is empty. click submit. RESULT - foo0 is empty.
foo1 is empty. SUCCESS!
2. foo0 = 'A', foo1 is empty. click submit. RESULT - page redraws. foo0 =
'A VALIDATED'. foo1 is empty. SUCCESS!
3. foo0 is empty, foo1 = 'A'. click submit. RESULT - page redraws. foo0
is empty. foo1 = 'A'. FAIL! - foo1 should say 'A VALIDATED'
For some reason MyAction.setFoo1() is being invoked *again* after I set
foo1 to 'A VALIDATED' in my validate() code. Why is that happening? I
know it has something to do with the Languages control that appears
before the foo1 text field, because when I remove the Languages control
everything works as expected.
Anyone have any ideas about what the Languages control is doing that is
causing my foo1 field to get reset to the original submit value? I'd
really like to be able to use the 'action tags' approach for repopulating
controls, but 'dropping wherever', as suggested in the FAQ (see link
above), does not seem to be as easy as it sounds.
Thanks.

Hi, 2008/6/26 bob fuller [EMAIL PROTECTED]: The approach I am taking is from the Struts 2 FAQ... http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/how-do-we-repopulate-controls-when-validation-fails.html Why should it be avoided? I don't remmeber exactly why, someone on this group mentioned that. In my opinion, using Preparable interface is a better option, but maybe I'm wrong ;-) Regards -- Lukasz http://www.lenart.org.pl/ - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
