Is there a particular reason why the <logic:present> tag from the
struts-logic taglib can't check if a value has been set in the request w/
the Servlet.setAttribute() method?
It seems like this would be common design pattern:
The Action class successfully processes some submitted form data,
It adds some info to the request object
(HttpServletRequest.setAttribute()),
(like a status message of the whatever the form was supposed to do)
Passes control to whatever the mapping.findforward() method returns;
Then the JSP displays the page with the status message w/ a
request.getAttribute().
Essentially, I'd like to avoid a:
<%
String mesg = request.getAttribute("status.message");
if (mesg != null) {
out.println(mesg);
}
%>
in my JSP page and leverage as much as I can from the taglibs. Does struts
provide any other mechanism to accomplish this?
Thanks,
