If you include a method call in all your actions to check whether the 
user is logged in, and then whether the session bean exists already, you 
can determine whether to create the bean or not each time. This won't be 
affected by the number of browser windows open, since you will only 
create the user bean once.

at the problem -  I provide a buttion in editor's
page, which is a JSP tile:


View Articles


If the button is clicked, I attempt to use an Action
(via the path /editor/Category) to search the database
for the field_of_specialization.  However, I got this
message in the browser:
[ServletException in:/article/content/menu.jsp] Cannot
retrieve mapping for action /do/editor/Category'
and in my struts-config.xml


type="org.apache.artimus.article.EditorViewAction">

name="success"
path="/menu/Find"/>

Sorry but I can't see why that problem should occur from the info you 
give. Maybe if you start a new thread with a relevant subject title for 
this then somebody may be able to help. If you could specify exactly 
when or which page causes the error, it might help too.

[Caroline Jen]

Thank you for the very useful and constructive
feedbacks.

I think I am going for the first method that you
suggested - create a user bean and store it in a 
session object at login.  My concern is that I use
container managed authentication at login.  After the

field_of_specialization?  If an action has to be
involved at this point to form a session object, does

the user has more than one browser window opened?

In regard to the two-action approach that you
discussed toward the end of your message, I
encountered some problems.  If you would take a look
at the problem -  I provide a buttion in editor's
page, which is a JSP tile:



View Articles



If the button is clicked, I attempt to use an Action
(via the path /editor/Category) to search the database
for the field_of_specialization.  However, I got this
message in the browser:

[ServletException in:/article/content/menu.jsp] Cannot

One method that I use is to create a user bean and store that in the 
session at login. This bean could include your editor's field of 
specialization, so that you don't need an extra action.

Secondly, you could drop the Action One by incorporating the field of 
specialization as a part of one SQL statement, so that you never 
actually extract the field of specialization from the DB. I.e. something 
like this:

SELECT article_title, article_text FROM app_user, article
WHERE app_user.user_name = ?
AND app_user.field_of_specialization = article.field_of_specialization
Alternatively if you still want to do 2 actions, I have seen people 
handle it in various ways: (1) get the action-forward in your action and 
modify the path to add a query_string with your keyValue on it (2) put 
the keyValue in a cookie (3) as you said, put it in the session. 2 & 3 
have the disadvantage that they could be overwritten if the user has

FAQ (Passing Variables Between Actions); But, Stuck and Need Help

[Caroline Jen]

Passing variables from one action to another is a
frequently asked question.  The answer is to use
either hidden fields or a session object.  

The story starts with searching the database.  My
application offers options to search the database by
author, title of the article, article ID, or . I
have a drop-down list in my JSP for visitors to make a
selection.  By clicking on one of those options, the
property "dispatch" is set.  And the visitor fills out
the text field to set "keyValue".  With both
"dispatch" and keyValue forwarded to an "action"; say,
Action ONE, the desired articles can be retrieved from
the database.  So far so good.

What I have handled next is the "author's page" of the
web site.  An author can only view his own articles
and perform update, delete, save, ... functions.  I
use the hidden field technique to handle it.  The
property "dispatch" is arbitrarily set as "author"
(needless to say) and keyValue can be obtained by

String username = request.getRemoteUser();

And,




are forwarded to the same action (Action ONE) for
processing.  Again, no problem.

Now, the application has another user case -  editors.
 An editor only retrieve and view all articles in
his/her own field of specialization.  I arbitrarily
set "dispatch" as "field_of_specialization" and use
the hidden field technique:



Nonetheless, the way to get the "value" the editor's
field of specialization is from the database.  Because
editors are registered members of the web site, the
application should be able to look for his/her profile
and obtain his/her field of specialization in the
database once an editor successfully logs into the web
site.  Therefore, it takes an "action" (Action TWO)
that tells the business tier to find the "keyValue" in
the database.  And should I put the "keyValue" in a
session object.  

I have tried to handle this situation again and again
in many different ways.  I am very frustrated and need
help -- how does a user go from by clicking a button
in a JSP to go to Action TWO (get the keyValue) and
then forward this keyValue and 


 
to Action ONE for retrieving the desired articles from
the database?

Dynamic Forms & Indexed properties (was RE: [Struts FAQ] Update #3)

These are great, thanks!  I was just saying yesterday that indexed
properties might solve a problem I have, but looking at the example I'm not
sure if I can use them with a DynaValidatorForm.

In the example, does the programmer have to code the "Person" class with
phoneNo and name properties, or does that happen somehow automatically?

And how does this work:
 public void getPerson(int index) { ... }

Shouldn't that return a Person object, or at the very least an Object,
rather than void?

Struts FAQ - Update #3

 http://www.scioworks.net/servlets/ShowPage?pid=54&dp=3

This update covers:

Q1: Is it possible to make the data from the resource bundles accessible as 
JSP page scripting variables?

Q2: What does  do?

Q3: What are "indexed" struts-html tags and how to use them?

Q4: What are "map-backed" form beans and how to use them?

Q5: I have an "index.jsp" in a "module1" module. However, when I access 
this from the browser, Struts doesn't seem to access the module 
struts-config.xml of the "module1". Why?

Q6: How do I make  to check if a bean is null before comparing 
the value?

Q7: The Taglib standard does not allow nesting custom tag inside the 
attribute of another custom tag. How can I achieve something like 
"/>?

Q8: How to apply container-managed security to Struts Actions?

Q9: When I have literal string in scriplet used inside a Struts custom tag, 
e.g. "/>, the scriplet is not 
evaluated properly. Why?

Q10: How do I use a Struts Action as a welcome file specified as 
 in web.xml ?

Q11: Why does my JSP gives me "Illegal target of jump or branch", 
ClassFormatError or VerifyError?

Q12: Can I detect if the user presses STOP on the browser?

Glad to see your still updating the Q & A. Keep up the good work. :-)


How to dynamically populate values in a form (e.g. options in a select box)
without submitting or refreshing the entire page?

As well as applets (which require the user's browser to have a Java VM or
plugin), a similar effect can be achieved using only javascript and a hidden
IFRAME or FRAME. Theres quite a good article on this technique at
http://developer.apple.com/internet/javascript/iframe.html

btw: I noticed a typo:

 the problem encountered by the container when flushing will be 'swollen' by
the container

I presume that should be 'swallowed by the container'?

jGuru hosts a lot of Java FAQ lists, including one for Struts at

Agreed.  A short answer saying "See the FAQ at this URL: http://.."; not only 
directs people to the answer for a particular question, but also teaches them to 
look there for their next question.  Another thing I've done on the VisualAge 
for Java forums is to post a weekly message about the existence of the FAQ. 
That way someone browsing recent messages is bound to stumble upon the link, and 
anyone nice enough to do a search in the archives for "FAQ" will find it.

Ted Husted manages the jGuru Struts FAQ - would he be willing to post a message 
along these lines to this list every week (I can send the one I use for VAJ if 
you'd like to adapt it).

I'll second that.  Many many questions have been posted on this list that are clearly 
explained in the documentation.

The documentation isn't perfect, and can be confusing at times, but some due diligence 
should be expected.  Not only is there documentation, but the source code is available 
and it will tell you the truth like no other!

About a month ago I was thrilled to see someone respond to a question with "RTFM"!

Re: This list NEEDS a FAQ

[John Yu]

There's an FAQ on husted.com which contains frequent questions asked on the 
list,

 http://www.husted.com/struts/FAQ/index.htm

Maybe we need an eye-catching link on jakarta's website pointing to the FAQ 
page? What do you think, Ted?

Re: This list NEEDS a FAQ

[martin . cooper]

There already is a FAQ, here:

http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/kickstart.html

I agree with the sentiment behind your suggestion, though. The real problem
is that many people don't refer to the FAQ, and don't check the mailing list
archives, before posting their own questions to the list. Unfortunately,
these are typically the same people who believe that their own time is more
valuable than that of other people on the list.

I don't know what the best solution is for this problem. Moderating the list
is one option, but with the typical daily volume of this list, I don't see
anyone readily volunteering for that task. ;-) Perhaps the best we can do is
to collectively enforce the "do your own research first" reaction.

So whenever you read a message that asks a question that is already on the
FAQ list, don't reply with the answer, but reply with a reference to the FAQ
which supplies the answer. And if you see a question being asked repeatedly,
propose it as a candidate for the FAQ.

If we are consistent in the way we respond to frequently asked questions on
this list, we should be able to reduce the overall message volume, and
increase the signal-to-noise ratio. That will benefit us all.

This list NEEDS a FAQ

Subscribers,

This list NEEDS a FAQ badly. There are many many many questions that are
asked repeatedly. It would be nice to refer them to a FAQ. I'd be willing to
put together a small FAQ. Please send me questions (and answers!! -- if you

That was it. After that I had another problem, which a co-worker solved. At
any rate, here's two things to put into the FAQ:

Q: I get this message in my log file: "Cannot find bean
org.apache.struts.taglib.html.BEAN in scope null". What's causing it?
A: it usually happens to me when I close the  too early, meaning
there are some 's or others floating around after I did
. (Thomas Quas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)

Q: I get this message in my log file: "No getter method for property
myProperty of bean org.apache.struts.taglib.html.BEAN" even though I have a
getter method in my form bean.
A: This is a matter of case-sensitivity. Even though your Java method will be
"public string getMyProperty()", with the "M" capitalized, the first letter of
the property in the JSP will be lower case. Your JSP will have this in it:
""

Found the answer to my problem in my web.xml file. Used the damned example
file and didn't change the values. Onto the next problem...

But I would still like to know if there's a FAQ around somewhere.

jGuru Structs FAQ

[Thomas E. Burns]

Howdy,

We are considering starting a FAQ for Struts on jGuru 
(http://www.jguru.com).  I am curious if anyone on this list is interested 
in managing the FAQ.

jGuru is the most visited site for Java developers and we have very popular 
faqs for servlets, jsp and tomcat already:

http://www.jguru.com/faq/home.jsp?topic=JSP
http://www.jguru.com/faq/home.jsp?topic=Servlets
http://www.jguru.com/faq/home.jsp?topic=Tomcat

We have had a few requests for a Struts FAQ and I think it would be a good 
addition to the site.

Being a FAQ manager on jGuru takes about 1-2hrs/week.  We have created a 
simple interface for the manager to monitor new questions and "promote" 
questions that are appropriate for the FAQ.  The answers can come for the 
community or the FAQ manager.  We would $500/month to the faq manager for 
this FAQ.

You can contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you are interested.

Thanks,

Thomas E. Burns

The Jakarta Jyve FAQ is still ailing, but the rights on my own account
are now working, and I can add, modify, and delete entries. I've already

eventually be repaired so that we can all maintain this "wiki-style" in
the future.

I've tried on three different occasions to learn emacs, but it works so
darned different from everything else on MS Windows that it just never
clicked.

I too prefer using a programmers editor more than an IDE. Lately, I've been
using jedit, which is slow, but has better java support than my former
editor and is Open Source. Anyway, I'd be interested in hearing other
people's suggestions as well.

I have been hooked on Visual Slickedit since I tried it.  I have been a
long time lemmy/vi fan, and Slickedit is a dream come true for me.  It has
near perfect emulation of vi, and I love the autocomplete/symbol viewer
that comes with it.

With regard to the development tool to use, i would suggest making the
distinction between  - 'fullblown IDEs', 'programmer editors', and 'text
editors'.

I noticed on this thread earlier that most people seem to working with
fullblown IDEs which surprised me a little. Personally, I use Visual Slick
Edit, as does my team [16 developers]. I would class this tool as a
'programmers editor' - as distinct from JBuilder/Visual Cafe etc which I
consider fullblown IDE's. There are advantages and disadvantages to each
type of tool, but this is something rarely pointed out to people -
particularly the people asking the question in the first place !

As final choice is always personal, I think it would be helpful to point
out
the specific advantages to working with each type of tool in developing
struts and developing struts based applications - as there is sometimes a
mistaken assumption that the fullblown IDEs are more suitable. This really
depends on what kind of development you are doing - and what kind of
developer you are. [it doesn't depend on rights and wrongs !]

I felt moved to respond to this thread, as choice of development tool can
radically affect an individual's and/or team's performance and efficacy. In
my experience, this is an area somewhat neglected - save for the'HolyWar'
style of exchanges which do not interest me personally.

I would be happy to expand on our development tool of choice and it's
advantages in our context, if there is interest.

Re: Ted's FAQ "What Web sites are already Powered by Struts?"

The registration and logon section of this site use
struts.  It has just recently gone live.

[jbirchfield]

Yes, we use .ojsp and .sjsp for 'open' and 'secured' portions of the site.
They get mapped to one of two controllers.

Are the links to ".ojsp" files going through the controller (e.g. ".do"
files)?

We use struts in portions of the Ironmax website (http://www.ironmax.com)
Namely the irst step in the RFQ process, and we use struts in all of our
informational products.

What!  Only two public sites powered by Struts?  And, java-genius.com
always gives me a DNS error anyway.  So there's really only one site in
this list that I would dare suggest to people who ask me about Struts in
the real world.

There must be more public sites than this.   There's
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts  at least (although it doesn't do anything
showy).

Please help me explain to MVC-clueless colleagues and bosses why I am
spending so much time getting into Jakarta Struts (as opposed to the
superficially similar, released, commercial, freely downloadable JSP
taglibs, like Allaire's JRun Tag Library or WDIG's TeaServlets). Please
post up some additions to Ted's list.

Also, how about adding more "Struts competitors" to my list of two?  (And,
while you're at it, do the competitive analysis.)

I've started a draft of a "obligatory kickstart FAQ" at 

< http://www.husted.com/about/struts/kickstart.html >

and am taking notes for something more comprehensive. 

If I ever get enough of it done, we can propose it for the
documentation. 

If anyone wants to pickup on one of the listed questions, don't
hesitate!

Unfortunately, the interactive Jakarta FAQ-o-Matic is still out of
commission. I was able to have them open up a Struts category, but my
account doesn't have sufficient karma to add questions :-(

I should have *known* it was another colossal Gates & Co. f***up.  I
estimate I've spent around 30-40% of my programming career working
around droolingly idiotic disasters perpetrated on the unsuspecting
populace by the morons in Redmond.

Thanks for the info.  ('Course now it's just telling me that
ActionServlet couldn't create a new ActionInstance--no reason given--but
that's something I can probably figure out myself.  I *will* get this
damn thing to say hello, damn it!)

Back to code digging.

Laird

FAQ: where on earth does ActionServlet log problems to?

[Laird Nelson]

I've got my ActionServlet set up with a debug level of 2 (I left that
parameter as it was set in the examples).  I'm running with Struts 0.5
and Tomcat 3.2.  I've been working for 8 hours straight trying to get a
basic web app using struts to come up and show me a hello world page in
response to a simple, one-parameter form submission.  I'm getting 500
errors, and the servlet.log and tomcat.log are empty.  So is the DOS box
(yes, unfortunately I'm on Window$ 95) that tomcat starts up in.

I'm stumped as to find out more information about my problem.  Oh please
help.  :-)

Humbly awaiting wisdom,
Laird

Welcome to the wonderful world of Windows.  The problem is that Windows does not
update the file size of a directory entry until you close the file -- so you
will have to shut down Tomcat to see the actual text of the messages.
