Thanks Vadim.
To Christian Haul,
Your suggestion was good and I wanted to do that
but my understanding of both the form and dbAddAction
have been somewhat poor... So I am "putting" all
actions I wanna do together so that I can get used to
the Cocoon API.
Here is what I am doing, but it throws
ComponentException saying "could not find Component
Exception!". It is this line:
ComponentSelector selector = (ComponentSelector)
manager.lookup(datasource.ROLE);
that throws the exception. I have defined my
datasource and sql driver in the sitemap and they are
working fine. Where did I go wrong?
import org.apache.avalon.excalibur.datasource.*;
import
org.apache.avalon.framework.parameters.Parameters;
import org.apache.cocoon.acting.AbstractAction;
import org.apache.cocoon.Constants;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.HashMap;
import org.apache.avalon.framework.thread.ThreadSafe;
import org.apache.cocoon.environment.Redirector;
import org.apache.cocoon.environment.Request;
import org.apache.cocoon.environment.SourceResolver;
import
org.apache.cocoon.environment.ObjectModelHelper;
import org.xml.sax.EntityResolver;
import org.apache.avalon.framework.component.*;
import org.apache.cocoon.acting.ComposerAction;
//import java.sql stuff
public class SendAction extends ComposerAction
implements ThreadSafe
{
DataSourceComponent datasource = null;
//other form variables...
public Map act (Redirector redirector,
SourceResolver resolver,
Map objectModel,
String source,
Parameters params) {
//declares new Map for return object
Map sitemapParams = new HashMap();
Request request =
ObjectModelHelper.getRequest(objectModel);
//validate form input
//if valid, insert them to the database
this.getDB(manager);
//....
return sitemapParams;
}//end Act
==============================================================
public void getDB() throws ComponentException
{
super.compose(manager);
ComponentSelector selector = (ComponentSelector)
manager.lookup(datasource.ROLE);
this.datasource = (DataSourceComponent)
selector.select("Card");
//now do DB insert...
}//end getDB
