Re: UPON APPLICATION STARTUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Nathan Coast]

select tags or indeed any tag that acts on a collection uses the name 
property to locate the collection.  If in your case you have a 
collection of values that you load once and share accross every session 
interacting with your app, load this at startup, say in a startup 
servlet init and place it into the application context.

servletConfig.getServletContext().setAttribute(name, value)

Greetings!

I would like to load default values in my forms upon application startup. Is 
this possible with STRUTS? Seriously, is this possible with STRUTS? If not, I 
will have to look some where else for this.

Many of my forms have drop down list that enables the user to choose the 
appropriate values. It would be nice that UPON APPLICATION STARTUP forms that 
need default values are automatically populated with said values.

I am aware that I can call an action that can prepopulate my forms with those 
values. However, it seems tedious to always call an action to populate a form 
with default values.

Has anyone done this before, if so, I would greatly appreciate some 
assistance.

This is like the upteen post concerning this. I find it hard that no one else 
needs this or has done this.

Regards,

Curtney
