I have a view with a table each row or which shows a single table
record. Each row has a checkbox so you can select multiple items and
click 'delete selected' to remove them in one go. This is implemented
with an s:checkbox backed by a property in the action. What I want is
for the property to contain a list of selected values or, if none were
selected, for the property to be null / an empty list. I can't get that
to work :-(
Firstly, the checkbox values are record IDs, so naturally I started out
trying to make the property an array of Integer. That works fine when
there are boxes checked, but if not, I get a conversion error on *every*
checkbox saying it has an invalid value.
So then I made the property an array of String. That works too when
there are boxes checked, but now I have to handle conversion to int by
hand. However, if no boxes are checked, the action property gets set to
an array of length one: the String value "false"! That explains why the
Integer array didn't work.
Here's an outline of the relevant code:
Action:
private Integer[] selected;
public Integer[] getSelected() {...}
public void setSelected(Integer[] value) {...}
JSP:
<table>
<s:iterate value="%{users}>
<tr>
<td>
<s:checkox name="selected" fieldValue="%{id}"/>
</td>
</tr>
</s:iterate>
</table>
Again, the intent is that the 'selected' property should be null or an
empty list if no checkboxes are selected. I need Struts *not* to try and
store a 'false' in there in that case.
Any ideas?
