Depending on which version of Struts you are using, you may need to set the dynamic attribute of the form-bean element to "true".
I'm assuming you are explicitely creating the form to convey that the NPE is not because the form is null. If this is not the case, you should allow Struts to create the form. robert > -----Original Message----- > From: Jan Fetyko [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2002 11:32 AM > To: struts > Subject: Re: NullPointerException while extending DynaValidatorForm > > > Looks like nobody has a recommendation on how to resolve issue described > below ( at least till now). > Is this working at all OR is this still a bug in the Beta version ? > So, should I stick with the "old" forms for now ? > > Jf > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > Hi all, > > > > I have a problem setting values of a form in my action. > > The form extends the "org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm". > > The struts-config.xml defines all the properties of the form except 2, > > that are defined in the actual Java source of the form. > > > > This is the error I'm getting : > > > > java.lang.NullPointerException > > at > > > org.apache.struts.action.DynaActionForm.getDynaProperty(DynaAction > Form.java:551) > > > > > > > > In struts config I have : > > > > <form-bean name="CustomerForm" type="com.forms.CustomerForm"> > > <form-property name="cid" type="java.lang.String"/> > > </form-bean> > > > > The action is trying to set the property of the form : > > > > form = new CustomerForm(); > > CustomerForm cf = (CustomerForm) form; > > cf.set("cid", customer.getCid()); // THIS iS WHERE IT ERRORS OUT. > > > > > > > > Any ideas what I'm doing wrong ? > > > > Jf > > > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
