Action Bean name lookup jstl function
-------------------------------------
Key: STS-872
URL: http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-872
Project: Stripes
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Tag Library
Affects Versions: Release 1.6
Environment: All
Reporter: Karl Kirch
Priority: Minor
Stripes makes it really easy to create links to action beans from inside the
jsp files. Unfortunately as our projects have gotten larger (and because of
institutional requirements) we've had to rearrange code into fairly deep
hierarchies. This is causing a lot of clutter in our views as we have beanclass
attributes that are huge ie:
'com.x.y.z.web.actions.administration.ManageUsersActionBean'. This also
presents a problem when re-factoring paths because we have to find all
instances of that Action Bean in our views and change each link.
We've been avoiding this problem by creating a straightforward lookup function
that maps all of our Action Beans and exposes a lookup function in our jsp
files.
Goes like so
beanclass='${linkHelper:getClass("ManageUsersActionBean")}'
That way we can move our action bean classes easily without having to re-factor
our views.
It would be really nice to have stripes have some sort of similar behavior
built in.
