RE: [struts-menu] attaching 'struts' menu to non-struts apps

2004-01-09 Thread Dan Luputan 
Matt,
I still use the M3 release jar which has 710k. It has also separate
smaller jars for beans and context but the framework web support is in
the big one.

Regards,
Dan

Thanks Dan - you're already fixing bugs! ;-)  BTW, which spring JAR do I
need to compile this class, I'm using the 900KB spring.jar, but I'm
wondering if there's a smaller one that can be used.

Thanks,

Matt

 Matt, the log in MenuLoader uses MenuPlugin. It should use 
 MenuLoader, of course. 
 Then, MenuPlugin is still there, so I cannot use the menu in 
 an non-struts env. Can you fix these and send me the files back?
 
 Thanks,
 Dan

 Dan,
 
 I've added your changes in a net.sf.navigator.menu.MenuLoader 
 class. Can you verify the attached file works for your app?  
 Here's the config that should work:
 
 bean id=menu class=net.sf.navigator.menu.MenuLoader
 property name=menuConfig
 value/WEB-INF/menu-config.xml/value
 /property
 /bean
 
 The reason I'd like you to test this is because I added some 
 defaults for Struts today (bundle and locale) and I want to 
 make sure you don't get any ClassNotFound errors if you don't 
 have struts.jar in your classpath.
 
 Thanks,
 
 Matt

  I made the changes to remove the dependency from
  ActionServlet, using instead the servlet context. There is 
  also the spring plug-in for initializing the menu.
  
  The menu is working fine, except an annoying problem: I use
  the expandable menu like in appfuse. On some pages the menu 
  does not expand at all, altough it is displayed. Also, 
  looking in the source page, all items are present, there is 
  no error on page, and still they don’t expand.

  I *do* want to de-couple struts-menu from Struts (hence the new
  navigator package naming).  If you have a patch - please 
  submit - I'd 
  love to have a non-struts-dependent MenuPlugin, or simply a 
 different 
  initialization class.
  
  Thanks,

Re: [struts-menu] attaching 'struts' menu to non-struts apps

2004-01-08 Thread Matt Raible 
Thanks Dan, I'll look into adding these shortly.

Most likely, the reason they don't expand is because there's a conflict 
between the window.onload in the menuExpandable.js and an onload 
handler on your page.  You can manually call the initializeMenus() 
function in your page after the menu's JSP - this should fix the 
problem:

Here's an example from one of my projects:

div id=menu
menu:useMenuDisplayer name=ListMenu
bundle=org.apache.struts.action.MESSAGE
permissions=rolesAdapter
menu:displayMenu name=MainMenu/
menu:displayMenu name=AdminMenu/
menu:displayMenu name=Logout/
/menu:useMenuDisplayer
/div
script type=text/javascript
initializeMenus();
/script
HTH,

Matt
