I've just started using the display:* taglib so forgive me if this has been covered elsewhere and I failed to find it.
I grok the idea of decorators and I think they're a wonderful idea but for my needs I think it is too much. Plus the fact that I really don't like the idea of embedding html in my java classes...
What I would very much like to do is something like this:
<display:table width="75%" name="reportList">
<display:column>
<html:link page="/report/download.do"
paramId="oid" paramName="report"
paramProperty="oid" paramScope="Page">
<bean:write name="report" property="name"/>
</html:link>
</display:column>Where the <html:link...> stuff is leveraging the struts framework to figure out the correct URLs and so forth.
My current solution is this:
<display:table width="75%" name="reportList"
decorator="com...UploadedReportWrapperDecorator">
<display:column property="actionLinks" title=""/>Where the decorator has the following methods:
public String getDeleteLink()
{
UploadedReportWrapper data =
(UploadedReportWrapper) this.getObject();
return "<a href=\"javascript:removeReport('"
+ data.getOid()
+ "')\">[delete]</a>";
} public String getDownloadLink()
{
UploadedReportWrapper data =
(UploadedReportWrapper) this.getObject();
return "<a href=\"javascript:downloadReport('"
+ data.getOid()
+ "')\">[download]</a>";
} public String getActionLinks()
{
return
this.getDeleteLink() +
this.getDownloadLink();
}Now when my content expert comes along to replace [edit] and [download] he's going to have to get into the java code and he nor I wants that to happen.
So...
Is there a way to include a column in a row of the generated table where that column's data doesn't come (directly) from the iteration instance?
Thanks, J
