I tend to write it as a struts interceptor. That way I don't have to use
Spring, and all of the application specific cross cuts are configured in one
place (the interceptor stack), as opposed to having some as servlet filters
and some as interceptors.

Al.

(Before anyone says it, by application specific cross cuts I mean the cross
cuts where the code is part of the app and not part of a library)

Subject: [S2] OpenSessionInView implementation with Spring

Hi,

I'm developing a new application using S2 + Spring 2.0 + Hibernate 3.2.5.

I wanted to know which would be the best way of implementing the Open
Session in View pattern in S2:
Is there any standard implementation for S2?

I''ve seen it implemented as a servlet filter, but I think it would be good
to have it implemented as an S2 interceptor (so we can still have support
for S2 declarative exception handling too.)

Or should rather stick with the Spring's
org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.support.OpenSessionInViewFilter
filter?

Any experiences?

Regards,
Gabriel

Hello,

Since I have only to languages ,I have provided a button in screen and
passing url parameter "english" and "polish".

In Action file taking this language and forming locale object and setting to
ACTION method "setLocale"

Wprowadź - Enter

Above polish word is not coming exactly as label in JSP page when page is
rendered.


Could any one suggest any solution to resolve the i18N for messages.

----------


if(strLanguage!=null && strLanguage.equalsIgnoreCase("english")){
 strLanguage="en";
 strCountry="US";
}else if(strLanguage!=null && strLanguage.equalsIgnoreCase("polish")){
 strLanguage="pl";
 strCountry="PL";
}else{
 strLanguage="pl";
 strCountry="PL";
}



Locale locale=new Locale(strLanguage,strCountry);
setLocale(request,locale);

So you mean if I add   request_locale=en_US in all forward this will work
OR if I add in first forward it is sufficient?

you can pass the locale on the request
and path accordingly

dziekuje!

Commons logging is just a logging facade, it is not a logging system
itself. It is used by libraries and frameworks so that the authors
can write logs that will eventually get logged to whatever logging
system the end user decides to embrace.

With that in mind, what you probably really need to decide is which
logging system you want to use. The two most popular are definitely,
the one built into Java (java.util.logging.*) and Log4j
(http://logging.apache.org).

One other thing you might want to look into is a more advanced facade
SLF4j (http://www.slf4j.org).
(*Chris*)

From a career point-of-view, there are different factors affecting this,
including whether you are looking for permanent positions or contract work, what
the local job market is like where you are, and what sort of jobs you would
apply for.

In a consultancy for instance, you are more likely to need Struts1 I think, but
as a freelancer working on new projects, maybe Struts2 or Spring MVC (or even
Spring Webflow). But then if you are a recent graduate, you may not be expected
to know either.

There is even an argument that you should learn both (if learning is more a
priority rather than finishing a project).

I guess I am not giving you any answers, sorry.

I would say then if you will not be looking for a new job at all soon, then
forget struts1 and concentrate on struts2, especially if there is a chance that
your company might start a project or convert a project to it.

However if you will specialize in web applications and you will be looking for
work soon, learn the basics of struts1 and 2, but specialize in struts2.

The implementation details are different (in a good way!), but both
use the same architectural paradigms.

Struts 1 uses an ActionForm for input value and a singleton Action to
process the values. Struts 2 uses an requested-based Action for both.
Struts 1 can only use string-input. Struts 2 can use native types and
POJO classes. Struts 1 uses a chain of command to process requests
(one per application). Struts 2 uses sets of interceptors that can be
changed for individual actions. And so forth. But, in most cases it's
a one:one evolution, rather than a totally different way of doing
things.

People who try Struts 2 after using Struts 1, tend to find it to be a
welcome change.

If someone were to apply for a S1 project, S2 experience would
probably be a plus, since most everyone would at least be thinking
about migrating someday.

I've got the following in a page inside a displaytag table;

<s:checkbox name="#attr.userPermission.id" theme="simple"
value="#attr.userPermission.startable"/>

What I would expect to see for an entry with the id 1234 set to true would
be something along the lines of;

<input type="checkbox" name="1234" value="true"/>

What I actually see is;

<input type="checkbox" name="#attr.userPermission.id" value="true"
id="UpdateProcessPermissions_#attr_userPermission_id"/>

Shouldn't the name attribute be evaluated?, and if it's not how do I get the
id of an object to be the name of the checkbox?

Ta,

Al.

The name attribute is assumed to be an string, as that would be the
most common use case. Just use %{expr} and it will work as you expect.

Your a genius (or at least in my book) :).

I looked at the ftl template for checkbox and thought using #attr would get
the same result in both fields, but as soon as I switched to %{#attr
everything worked.

Thanks.

Hi Pablo,

This is probably too late for you, but take a look at the generated HTML
for the tabs.
Unfortunately you'll see that each tab itself doesn't have a unique ID
(each container does, but not the tab itself).
Each tab is assembled from a couple of divs and spans based on a
"sliding doors" css pattern.
The selected tab nodes have a different style than the non-selected, but
otherwise they're all the same pattern.

Unless dojo has a method in the widget already (which I don't know of),
you can change the style of each individual tab only in two ways:
a. use CSS3 selectors to apply style to the divs/spans based on their
position in the DOM (eg. the 3rd div has a green image). It won't work
in IE though.
b. use javascript to simulate the same effect: iterate through these
nodes in the DOM and assign additional classes to them based on the tab
number/current tab. If you take the time to understand the structure
it'll be quite straightforward.

Hope that helps. Personally by now I would have started using a widget
from another library as you're not bound to use Dojo 0.4 with Struts2.

regards,
Jeromy Evans

Thank you for your reply.

I already had done sth similar as your 2nd point, but I´m having still a
problem. My javascript code is executed before the document is loaded in
the browser, so it changes my tab color (the one I want), but, then, it
becames to the original color (because the load of the page overrides my
changes). Do you know how can I do to execute this js code *after* the
page is loaded?

Hi Friends,

I did one small workaround, I used the
"ServletActionContext.getActionMapping().getName()" for catch the name of my
action and as i have two element action using the same action class, this
way work well.
But, I still can't catch the value into the param element.

Tks,

One thing you can do is use the <param> tag in struts.xml (along with
the staticParams interceptor from the defaultStack) to inject the
value of a parameter into your action.

If you have something like this in your struts.xml:

<action name="login" class="my.company.controller.LoginAction">
<param name="role">anybody</param>
<result>home.jsp</result>
</action>

And then you add a setRole(String role) method to your LoginAction, it
will automatically be populated for you by the time your
LoginAction.execute() method is called.

I would like to replace the default action in a struts2 application which is
using smarturls. SmartUrls seems to default to ActionSupport for and actions
which aren't defined in the struts.xml file and don't have a class file that
matches the url pattern.

I have set the struts properties file to be:

smarturls.action.packages=com.mycompany.actions
struts.action.extension=
smarturls.action.default.parent.package=mypackage

And have the following package declared in struts.xml:

  <package name="mypackage" extends="struts-default" namespace="/">
 <default-class-ref
class="com.mycompany.actions.PrototypeAction"></default-class-ref>
</package>


But when I load the following url http://localhost:8080/myapp/randomUrl it
seems to still be using ActionSupport as the default class instead of the
default class declared in the default parent package.

Does anybody know how to override the default of ActionSupport?

Has someone an idea?

This repost includes the struts config file as requested by mgainty. Thanks.
NOTE: There is NO stack trace. These are errors we see in the FireBugs HTTP
log and also the lack of rendering the DropDownDatePicker.

In FireBug, we get the following errors when using <s:head theme="ajax">.
The source code follows the list of errors. Additionally, our
<s:dropdowndatepicker> tag doesn't appear.

NOTE: There are successfully "gets" for all of these files under the nls
directory without the en-us. Why is it looking in en-us? We're lost.
Pleeease help.

I looked through all the combinations of wild card configurations, zero
config, annotations and I can't find one that fits my work style and offers
any benefit. I have a pattern to my development, it just doesn't fit the
current proposed solutions.

I often have a namespace per pojo(sometimes nested).
These include typically edit, delete, save, list operations (and sometimes
search).

I think wildcard mappings would be more powerful of a configuration
technique if they could factor in the package name. That way, they could
take advantage of configuration inheritance.


Consider the example below. Just by being able to refer to the ${packName}
an enourmous amount of the configuration could be sliced and diced.

<!-- template out and abstract pattern -->
<package name="Abstract-crud" extends="struts-default" namespace="/example">
 
   <!-- edit is often used as the create/view -->
   <action name="edit" class="org.${packageName}Action">
     <result name="input" type="velocity">{actionName}.vm</result>
     <result name="success" type="velocity">{actionName}.vm</result>
     <result name="error" type="velocity">{actionName}.vm</result>
   </action>

   <action name="save" class="org.${packageName}Action" method="save" >
     <result name="input" type="velocity">edit.vm</result>
     <result name="success" type="chain">list</result>
     <result name="error" type="velocity">edit.vm</result>
     <result name="cancel" type="redirect">list.action</result>
   </action>

   <action name="list" class="org.${packageName}Action" method="list">
     <result name="success" type="redirectAction">list</result>
   </action>

   <action name="delete" class="org.${packageName}Action" method="delete">
     <result name="success" type="redirectAction">list</result>
   </action>

 </package>
 
    <!-- apply pattern over multple name spaces/mappings -->
 <package name="Example" extends="abstract-crud" namespace="/example"/>

 <package name="Example2" extends="abstract-crud" namespace="/example2">
   <action name="override" class="org.${packageName}Action"
method="override">
     <result name="success" type="velocity">somethingelse.vm</result>
   </action>

Hi

I am using Struts 1.3.8. I have written a command to replace the
processPreProcess method of a custom RequestProcessor from an older
verison of Struts. Basically, I want to perform a check for an object
in the session, but only for Actions that have a specific property
set. I hope that makes sense? i.e. check for a user in the session,
but only if the action requires it. i.e. SecureAction requires a valid
session, with a user in the session. HomeAction requires no such
check.

Relevant ActionServlet config in web.xml:
          <init-param>
               <param-name>chainConfig</param-name>
               <param-value>
                    /WEB-INF/config/struts/chain-config.xml,
                    /WEB-INF/config/struts/chain-config-custom.xml
               </param-value>
          </init-param>

Content of /WEB-INF/config/struts/chain-config-custom.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<catalog name="struts">
  <chain name="servlet-standard-preprocess">
    <command className="CustomCommand"/>
  </chain>
</catalog>

Struts config:
    <action-mappings>
          <action path="/test"
               type="TestAction">
               <set-property key="RunLogic" value="true" />
               <forward name="success"
                    path="success.jsp" />
          </action>
    </action-mappings>

CustomCommand.java:
public boolean execute(Context ctx) throws Exception {
    ActionContext context = (ActionContext) ctx;
    Map actionContextParams = context.getParameterMap();
    String runLogic = (String) actionContextParams.get("RunLogic");
    if (runLogic != null
          && runLogic.equalsIgnoreCase("true")) {
       //check for user in session. If no user throw exception.
    }
    return CONTINUE_PROCESSING;
  }

How do I access the "RunLogic" property in the CustomCommand class?
Prior to Struts 1.3.8 I would use a custom ActionMapping class and I
had access to the ActionMapping in the RequestProcessor. I see no way
to access my properties in the Context object.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
