Hi,
just installed struts on os x panther (10.3), or should I say trying to!

I am running apache 2, tomcat, cocoon with no problems. My problem is installing Struts (AHHHHHH!!!!)

Now, following the install document it says to copy "struts-documentation.war" and "struts-example.war" to your $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory. Done that.

On restarting tomcat, a file called tomcat-apache.conf should be generated and placed in my $TOMCAT_HOME/conf directory. Nope, this is not happening. I thought that there might be a write privilege issue with the folder, but got no joy with that. What am I doing wrong??

Would I be right in thinking that the tomcat-apache.conf file is not specific, in the sense that it doesn't captures machine specific data and is just a generic file? If so, could one of you kind people send me the file so I can get on with the rest of my life, please??? ;-)

Uzo

p.s.

Setup specific is:

1. complete Apache 2.0.48 (from Server Logistics - www.serverlogistics.com)
2. complete Jakarta Tomcat (from Server Logistics)
3. Apache Coccoon (from Server Logistics)
4. Struts 1.2 (from jakarta.apache.org)

Good morning...

I need to do something similar with additional configuration properties for
a particular action.


I figure I need to write a plug-in that creates a thread that checks the
properties file every x seconds and if changed reloads it into a context
attribute.


My problem is I've never done thread-safe programming before and I figure I
need to handle the possibility that the plug-in's thread could be writing a
new version while several actions are reading from the existing one.


Does anyone have any pointers to some information on how to do this
properly?  Much appreciated.

Thanks

Create a thread in your cache manager that polls for changes in the

a new one is detected.

Yes, but the problem is not at the cache end, the issues are how
to trigger the components (the ActionServlet in this case) into refreshing
their data from the cache. Do I have to extends the ActionServlet and
manually pop in refreshed data (based on some trigger) in the message key
in the ServletContext? And how does locale affect the configured key

Note that although the message data is read in from Properties files, the objects in the ServletContext which resolve references to properties keys are instances of a specific Struts class, MessageResources. If you dynamically reloadable messages (which would be useful to many people), you'll want to look at the MessageResources and MessageResourcesFactory abstract classes and extend them (or their Property oriented subclasses) in order to add in your functionality...


http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/util/ MessageResources
.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/util/ MessageResources
Factory.html


There's an ongoing process to factor these classes out of Struts and
into a commons library, and to have Struts use that library (on the
roadmap, that's slated for Struts 1.3.x).

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/sandbox/resources/
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/status.html

Hope that helps.  I know I'd find a dynamically reloadable messages
bundle useful!
