Hi I have a Swing app where the SwingView implements the view interface and has a method duplicateException(String s).
In the SwingView it is implemented as public void duplicateException(String duplicateName) { JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "That would result in a duplicate Channel", "Duplicate Channel", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE); } So if the business layer finds a duplicate it can inform the presentation layer. I am wondering how this would map on Struts? Using Struts, if I have an ActionForm implement the view interface, how would it create an ActionError or ActionMessage? It seems that from an ActionForm the validate() method can do it, and an Action can do it but is it possible to create an ActionError and save it from my duplicateException() method? Could I perhaps have my duplicateException() method add to collection variable in the ActionForm and then have the validate() method check that collection and generate the required ActionErrors? Any thoughts?
