William,

Sure, you could definitely come up with many ways to hit this particular 
issue... and I won't refute that... . In fact, I wasn't even aware of it 
in the 1st place and I Thank You for sharing it with the community.


But, again I would never see it because any web app I build 
essentially has WebRoot that looks like this:

/css
/img
/js
/WEB-INF

Not sure if this is explicit best practice but if it isn't it sure might 
be implicit best practice as many a web app are built this way.


ASIDE: I say essentially b/c we in fact have a structure that starts 
with /static/__ID/[css|img|js] and when we release __ID is the release 
version and we set the expires for everything under /static to 1 year 
and we will run it through a CDN... but that is all another story 
altogether and I guess the only worry I could have is if I had a URL 
binding that started with /static/ so thanks for the heads up... .


So in your case I would have:

/images
/jobs
/add-icon.png
/del-icon.png
/css
/edit.css
/WEB-INF
  /jsp
  /jobs
   /edit.jsp
   /list.jsp


And there are NUMEROUS intrinsic design benefits here as:
- you get fewer top level folders... easier to manage... yes you could 
make the argument that having things dissected by business area / 
ActionBean is easier to manage but I think if you try this you might see 
what I am talking about... .
- all your images, css and js are rooted under 1 respective folder and 
easily zipped, replaced, scanned, etc...
- do you really have a different edit.css file for different business 
areas / ActionBeans?
- when / if you add JS do you really have a different JS file for 
different business areas / ActionBeans?
- having fewer css / JS files takes advantage of web browser caching, 
limits the cost of the network trip hit, etc...
- and I can go on and on... but now we are talking about Application 
Design... and grey areas... and are off topic... .


Does this not address your problem / the bug you found?

I still have the same problem with Tomcat adding a / to

JSPs.

William,

Isn't it best practice to place ones JSPs rooted under /WEB-INF.  This
ensures that your JSPs are never directly accessible from the outside
while still allowing your ActionBean's to forward to them.

If you followed this then Tomcat nor any other Web Container would

Hi Nikolaos,

Adopting your approach for organising your web resources does work well
as a workaround for this issue, and is presumably why it's not a more
common problem.

I structure my web apps more like you than my last example (except for
the placement of JSPs), and I've now popped my JSPs under WEB-INF too,
so this issue really isn't hurting me any more either.

I also took of the @HandleEvent calls as suggested by Sam (I renamed
new to create).

Things are much smoother now!

Kind regards,
 
William Rose

[Stripes-users] Clean URLs failing on form post

2011-02-02 Thread Rose William
Hi there,
 
I found the recent discussion on the mailing list about clean URLs
seemingly failing to find the right event handler when a form is POSTed,
and saw a variety of solutions to creating the URL oneself.

After trying to debug the same issue myself, I think the reason for this
behaviour is tied up in Tomcat bug 32424 (see
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32424).


My web app is set up with DynamicMappingFilter applied to /*.

I have a WEB directory structure like this:

   /jobs
/edit.jsp
/list.jsp

I have an action bean annotated like this:

   @UrlBinding(/jobs/{$event}/{fullName})

There is a list event, new event and save event:

//@DefaultHandler
@DontBind
@HandlesEvent(list)
public Resolution list() throws SchedulerException {
s_log.debug(in list());

return new ForwardResolution(/jobs/list.jsp);
}

@HandlesEvent(new)
@DontValidate
public Resolution newJob() throws SchedulerException {
s_log.debug(in newJob());

return new ForwardResolution(/jobs/edit.jsp);
}

@HandlesEvent(save)
public Resolution saveJob() throws SchedulerException {

return new RedirectResolution(JobAction.class,
edit).addParameter(fullName, this.jobDetail.getFullName());
}



In edit.jsp, I have a form like this:

   stripes:form name=jobEdit id=jobEditForm
beanclass=myorg.action.JobAction
   [form fields]
   stripes:submit name=save value=Save /
   /stripes:form


What happens is that when the page is rendered, I get HTML like:

form id=jobEditForm name=jobEdit action=/contextPath/jobs
method=post 


The important thing to note here is that /contextPath/jobs resolves to a
folder -- the one that contains edit.jsp and possibly other resources.
Ostensibly, DynamicMappingFilter caters for such things because it waits
until the request 404's before handling it. And when a link is
constructed or a form submitted using GET, everything is just fine.

The problem is that Tomcat, as per the bug above, sees that
/contextPath/jobs is a folder early in the processing of the POSTed form
and issues a redirect to /contextPath/jobs/. This happens means all the
POST data is dropped and a GET request to /contextPath/jobs/ with no
extra parameters is issued.

Hence, Stripes will complain with errors like No default handler could
be found for ActionBean, or just show the default handler for that
action bean (in my case, if I uncommented the @DefaultHandler
annotation, I would always see the job list).

I think that this is why fixes proposed in the recent thread that
involved creating the URL differently would end up working -- in the
end, those URLs would be terminated with a slash, or at least would not
end up looking like a known directory to Tomcat. Other web containers
may do the same thing.

So a potential fix for Stripes to work around the fact that Tomcat devs
consider this not a bug is to have the form tag pop a / at the end of
beanclass based URLs when the method is POST (?).

My workaround is to make my URL patterns not overlap with actual folders
-- changing jobs to job in @UrlBinding(/job/{$event}/{fullName}) --
means that the post URL is /contextPath/job, and Tomcat doesn't mess
with it.

I hope this helps someone avoid spending their morning trying to figure
out why their by-the-book clean URL is not working!

Hi Sam,

Partly history -- I've used Stripes like that previously and hadn't looked into 
the auto-mapping.

I had also wanted to be extra explicit to make sure that naming weirdness 
wasn't why my events were not dispatched correctly.

And for the new event specifically, methods named new are not allowed, so 
@HandlesEvent is needed. I suppose I should call it create.

       public Resolution newJob() throws SchedulerException {
               s_log.debug(in newJob());

               return new ForwardResolution(/jobs/edit.jsp);
       }

       @HandlesEvent(save)
       public Resolution saveJob() throws SchedulerException {

               return new RedirectResolution(JobAction.class,
 edit).addParameter(fullName, this.jobDetail.getFullName());
       }



 In edit.jsp, I have a form like this:

    stripes:form name=jobEdit id=jobEditForm
 beanclass=myorg.action.JobAction
        [form fields]
        stripes:submit name=save value=Save /
    /stripes:form


 What happens is that when the page is rendered, I get HTML like:

         form id=jobEditForm name=jobEdit
 action=/contextPath/jobs
 method=post


 The important thing to note here is that /contextPath/jobs resolves 
 to

 a folder -- the one that contains edit.jsp and possibly other
 resources.
 Ostensibly, DynamicMappingFilter caters for such things because it 
 waits until the request 404's before handling it. And when a link is 
 constructed or a form submitted using GET, everything is just fine
