Hi to all. I'm working on a project using Struts 1.1 because those are client requirements. I override RequestProcessor and some of it's methods. like processRoles, processActionPerform, and so on. I want to implement a logic like Struts 2 Preparable interface, where if you implement in your Struts 2 Action you implement method prepare() that executes before an action method is called.
I want to simulate that in Struts 1 so i created a PreparedForm where i define 2 methods signature: prepareBefore and PrepareAfter. prepareBefore will execute before action is called and prepareAfter until after action call. This is PreparedForm: public interface PreparedForm { public void prepareBefore(HttpServletRequest request); public void prepareAfter(HttpServletRequest request); } This is a form that implements PreparedForm: public class PaisForm extends DefaultActionForm implements PreparedForm { private String idpai; private String idmon; private String nombre; private String codigoNomina; public void prepareAfter(HttpServletRequest request) { //Do stuff after execute action method } public void prepareBefore(HttpServletRequest request) { //Do stuff before execute action method } ... So, i override processValidate to call here prepareAfter in case that form validation has errors, but maybe i didn't overrided well the method, this is my method: protected boolean processValidate(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response, ActionForm form, ActionMapping mapping) throws java.io.IOException, javax.servlet.ServletException { boolean resValidacion = super.processValidate(request, response, form, mapping); //Si se implemento PreparedForm, se llama prepareAfter if (form instanceof PreparedForm && !resValidacion) ((PreparedForm)form).prepareAfter(request); return resValidacion; } When i call an action and validate() in this line: boolean resValidacion = super.processValidate(request, response, form, mapping); returns validation errors, it returns me directly to jsp and doesn't continue on the next lines and i don't know why. Thanks in advance. -- Oscar Calderón SCJP 6 <http://javahowto.net>
