You mean like something that gathers up all the inline handlers and shovels
them into an external block?

I don't know of anything that does this or is planned. It seems like it'd
be a risky automation to generalize.

I would say that it's something that could likely be automated *locally* in
that JSP parsing is (reasonably) straightforward and could be done with
existing text-based tools.

I'd still probably just do it by hand, but I could see the usefulness of a
first-pass being done w/ some small scripting.

Re: Struts 6.3 tags do not automatically evaluate the value field against the ognl stack

[Dave Newton]

I’m don’t recall if it was intentional but iirc the advice we used to give
was to always use the OGNL expression syntax to be explicit and clear.
(Iiarc there was a reason for doing this at one point as well.) Seems like
still good advice.

It should get into the docs, though.

Effort: unclear how anyone could guess. Depends entirely on codebase size,
architecture, scale reps, etc. TL;DR: you’llrewrite the entire web layer.
The *complexity* depends on how well separated the web and business layers
in the existing app are. The *time* depends on how much of it there is. You
may want to convert one piece  at a time.

Impact: in what sense?

Approaches: pick an easy part and use it to gauge level of effort, in
particular comparing it to a non-S2 approach.

Unlikely; the last S1 release was ~a decade before Java 11 was GA, and S1
was EOLed ~5 yrs before Java 11.

Re: CVE-2019-0233 is Struts v1 vulnerable?

[Dave Newton]

You’d need to create a variation of one of the PoCs, you can likely search
around for one. That said—I don’t see how S1 could be vulnerable since it’s
a completely different mechanism. In general, no S2 vulnerabilities will
apply to S1 *ever* unless it’s explicitly related to a dependent
library—there’s no real relationship between S1 and S2.

No, you create a web app with it. The S2 archtypes *are* runnable, or you
can create a web app in the typical way, or you can follow a tutorial,
including the minimal one at
https://struts.apache.org/getting-started/how-to-create-a-struts2-web-application.html
.

It contains an enum? That's not much to go on--there are some jQuery

Re: How to (cleanly) disable specific namespace / action hierarchy at runtime

[Dave Newton]

What's the specific use case? What's the logic that determines availability
(e.g., is this an auth/auth issue)?

An interceptor or action base class would be my first approach.

Hm. I don't think your assumption that I haven't done defense contracting
is a reasonable one, but we'll agree to disagree on that one. (If you're
wondering, encrypted radio systems, and consulting on guidance systems. And
I still know the people I worked with--and people that use the systems or
their descendents.)

FWIW: you're going to find people with a pretty wide background in this
group, many with decades of experience across a full spectrum of domains.
Speaking for myself, I come from both embedded and application development
going on 30+ years now. I know others here have similar time in the
trenches. None of us are resistant to new ideas or ways of looking at
things--but we have an appreciation for factual claims and accurate
representations.

Anyway you jumped to a conclusion of reverse engineering  when I was

I "jumped" to reverse engineering because you specifically said an
advantage of Java was decompilation (not unique to Java), and that's a
primary component of reverse engineering almost by definition.

Sure you are--you specifically brought up decompiling, which is the first
step of reverse-engineering. And in a jar with no debug info, or
obfuscation, it's not the last step.

(And not getting into external modifications to a jar which could happen
during load.)

Of course you can--it's just software. It's how we used too develop all the
time.

I haven't worked on a 68k product for twenty years--I'd be *very* surprised
if anyone had designed one into a system in the last decade or more. I'm
not sure if they still produce the hardened version, but I don't recall
many space-based systems using them, although it was in some military
hardware--a long time ago.

But that's not really relevant--almost nobody does embedded systems work;
it's an edge-case.

They're just code like anything else. And I don’t quite understand why
there’s a distinction made here between reverse engineering an exe and a
jar.

I also chose Java because one can decompile  classes , so any unknown

Decompiling a jar is a small part of understanding its behavior in a
system. A variety of mechanisms can alter library behavior during load and
run time, plus the additional layer of abstraction from the JVM, plus some
indeterminism depending on what GC and JRE decisions were made.

In any case, unless you’re running on bare metal and assuming we’re
ignoring cpu unknowns, we’re working in black box environments most of the
time anyway—it’s just that most of the time we have the luxury of being
able to ignore this.

This is demonstrably incorrect (trivially). It doesn't even make sense.

AFAIC the burden of proof is on you, because developers do valid testing
all the time.

(And yes, some developers do some invalid testing some of the time.)

I would challenge the supposition that we didn't test the pacemaker (or the
fuel pump, although it wasn't as extreme, I'd say) within inches of its
life, or the payment processing code (ACH stuff pretty much has to work),
or any number of other projects. You appear to confuse different layers of
testing, all of which are required (to varying degrees), with "testing",
which is not a single thing. You're making a lot of assumptions based on
your specific experience--which is fine, but it might be a good idea to
take a small step back and recognize that your experience is not everyone's
experience, what you're calling "testing" is in fact a field unto itself,
and that maybe some additional experience might broaden your horizons.

Good luck!

That's simply not the case across the board: there are multiple tiers of
testing, and the onus is on the developer to do the initial testing.

For example, when I was writing pacemakers--you better believe we tested
the *crap* out of our code. Were we the *only* ones testing? Of course not;
there were *many* levels of testing--but it *started* with us.

Yep. And when I was writing fuel pump controllers not only did *I* have a
set of tests, so did the hardware guys, so did the combination of HW/SW
guys, so did the verification group, so did whoever gave us our
certification, etc.

It's not entirely clear to me what your point is, or if you're just arguing
for the sake of arguing.

Testing is, by necessity, the responsibility of everyone involved in the
project, which includes the developer.

Testing is multi-tiered just like the rest of large applications.
Developers are in a unique position to do more in-depth testing than pure
black-box testing would allow, including testing interop layers invisible
to, say, QA at the front-end.

There's a reason there are different names for different types of testing,
and ideally, there are multiple layers of testing, performed across dev
groups.

Single-quotes must be escaped using double single-quotes; single quotes are

Honestly, I wouldn't--unless there's an overwhelmingly good reason to
essentially re-write the app, I wouldn't.

If I *had* to, I would run two apps in parallel and convert things over one
page at a time.

My own preference would be to keep most of the business logic "as-is" and
expose an API and convert the front end to a client-side framework (e.g.,
React/Vue).

Kind of depends what you're migrating it to. Roughly speaking you copy your
business logic as-is and rewrite the web interface side of things.

Re: Is struts better than spring framework?

[Dave Newton]

Yes? No?

Apples and oranges. Struts 2 is an MVC web framework. Spring MVC is the
Spring equivalent. Spring is an all-encompassing framework for many things,
one small part of that is the web.

In any case, "better" is subjective.

Re: A book of Struts

[Dave Newton]

I'd probably keep Spring in the first book since basic integration is
pretty simple, and a lot of people use the two together.

I think the only potentially-missing thing (and I say potentially because
it might belong in either basic or the advanced or both) is testing.

Validation is another thing that people ask a lot of questions about; not
sure if it's in Book 1 or the nascent book 2 :)

Re: A book of Struts

[Dave Newton]

No recommendations; I'm forced to use Word right now for a Kindle book I'm
working on and I hate it (same when I did the S2 book) so don't do
that--makes code stuff needlessly complicated.

There are many plain-ish-text systems out there--my personal preference
would be one of those, in a repo, and convert to final format. This also
allows you to write in code snippets you can pull from the same or
different repos, which is very convenient. I haven't found a great way to
do code fallouts though, like PragProg or Manning, in a trivial way.

Re: A book of Struts

I'd be a little cautious going down that rabbit hole as I learned in my
previous S2 book.

I think covering the basics of Ajax from the S2 side is good; I don't know
how far down a jQuery-specific path I'd go.

Although it might be worth covering the S2 jQuery plugin--I'm not sure; I'd
have to think about that.

Re: A book of Struts

[Dave Newton]

I have a long-standing, and way overdue, book about S2 internals :(

I think two books are in order:

* S2 Basics: (modern) app development
* S2 Internals: advanced topics, deep customization, etc.

Misc thoughts:

* 2.0 → 2.3 → 2.5 → 2.6 migrations are appendices: focus book on "current"
version
* Interacting with current web app tech (e.g., React, GraphQL, JWT, ???)
* Best practices (which code goes where)
* How is S2 still relevant
* "Boundary crossings": DB, external APIs, etc.
* Scaling

Chances are I could go on.

A book covering all of S2 *and* internals would be (a) too big, (b) too
much work. Split it up: save yourself.

I can come up with more stuff as well, or if you'd like to work together,
that's fine too.

Dave

Re: http://mybox:8080/struts/hello.action gets HTTP Status 404 - Not Found

That means you're hitting a JSP page with S2 tags without having run
through an S2 request process, e.g., hitting a JSP page directly.

Re: Dynamically generating multiple sets of radio buttons

[Dave Newton]

It’s not entirely clear to me what you’re asking.

`getItemList` will return whatever it returns—if the logic for what should
return lies in the view layer then it’s an architectural problem.

If you need to return two lists then you should have two list getters. If
the view layer *presentation* of the list varies by list content then the
list should be presented in a structure that represents that, e.g.,

Class ViewList {
String representation; // e.g., “radio”, “dropdown”, etc.
List items; // The things to show
}

If it depends on actions *taken* in the view layer, e.g., something
JavaScript-y, then all this is out the window and we’d need more
information.

Please create a GitHub repo with your code and I'll take a look. Note that
the examples from the book were tested only on Tomcat, and a pretty long
time ago. I'll need any server details you're using.

Also note that S2 is fairly different now than when the book was written.

It's tough to understand what's going on. You have a few JS functions
that open new windows, but it's not clear to me when or why they'd be

Re: issue with getting current date using date tag in latest struts 2.3.3X

[Dave Newton]

I'm surprised that worked, since it's supposed to be the name of the date
property you want to display. Maybe it was introspecting to see if it was
an immediate date value, but that's deceptive and counter-intuitive.

In any case, that's a large version jump. OGNL was updated multiple times.
If I were guessing (which I am; sorry) I'd say it's related to the
evaluation of parameter names in OGNL.

Unrelated, but making this work correctly seems like a win.

I think the disconnect is that you're viewing the S2 documentation hoping
for an MVC tutorial, which this isn't. Entire books have been written about
MVC. One part of "jargon" is serving as a common communication model. The
description is presented as a description of S2, not MVC in general.

It is curious that the introductory explanation for beginners is full
> of specialized and undefined jargon.
>

The introductory explanation of S2 is just that; not a tutorial of MVC, for
which there are better, and more extensive, tutorials.

(As an aside, note there are multiple interpretations of what "MVC"
actually *is*, as most web-based MVC frameworks, especially prior to fairly
recently, are quite a bit different than when the pattern was first
identified and implemented.)

YMMV, but I'd rather pick specialized documentation that addresses specific
concerns.

Regarding the rewrite: it's adequate as far as it goes, but misses some
fairly important points (e.g., control *is* forwarded back through the
controller). Think of it this way: the request is always "moving forward"
through the process. But it moves "back through" the controller, because
that's just how filters work.

The view layer doesn't transmit the reply message to the user (nor is it
necessarily HTML). The view layer creates the output of the request,
whatever that happens to be. But it isn't the view layer's responsibility
to get that representation back to the user.

The "model" (an action in S2) essentially does a data transform between the
request and what is required by the view layer. The view layer does a data
transform between what is given to it and what is sent back to the client.
(Noting that some of this may not be written by the app developer but can
be hidden within the framework, e.g., automatic JSON transformation.)

I'd only reiterate that there are a large number of concepts involved in a
back-end framework. IMO neither a primer nor a *framework* tutorial are the
place to address those concepts directly. This is why links are provided
that go in to much more detail. Other people, smarter than me, have spent a
lot of energy explaining the details of the concepts that S2 implements. I,
at least, would defer to their better grasp of both concept and language,
and keep the S2 docs concise, and use jargon common to the field. Again,
YMMV, and other S2 contributors may have different opinions--I'm speaking
only for myself.

No, they're used as intended: either business logic *or* state *and, since
we use "or", possible both) are represented (and encapsulated) by a model.

(Noting that neither is actually mandatory in the handler, but there is *a*
model represented by an action. It may or may not be the "final" model in a
modeling chain.)

Most certainly not; "loosely coupled" is a ubiquitous term in software

Ah, the "split infinitive". If this were written in Latin, this would be a
much livelier discussion. It's English, though, and even the
heavily-prescriptive Elements of Style does not say not to split them. So
if you are (or were) an English teacher, holding the split infinitive up as
something that's "wrong" wouldn't hold water. It holds less water since
this isn't an English class.

I'd disagree. There might be minor tweaks (when isn't there?) but the words
used have fairly well-known meanings in both the technical and
English-speaking community, and they're more or less in the right order.

There is no "most-commonly deployed way". You could write it in pure Java,

The options are essentially unlimited, both in and out of the JVM ecosystem.

What's "best" is more likely to be determined by the support resources you

Re: why the code passes Servlet container test but fails in StrutsTestCase

[Dave Newton]

This shouldn't even compile since you're attempting to return a value.

Re: Jodd/Madvoc MVC framework

No issue in the sense of it working or not.

*My* issue with strings is that it completely ignores the type system, such
as it is, that Java gives us.

Re: Jodd/Madvoc MVC framework

[Dave Newton]

The async thing is nice; that would be a good thing to bring into S2.

I still don't like the string-based action returns; strings are just awful.
I don't have a better solution (yet).

It might be a good time for me to rethink the code-based config I'd
implemented some time ago, e.g., use a Groovy or whatever DSL to config the
results, that way they end up being code artifacts.

I'm just not a fan of declaring things based on strings, including result

I don't know what the easiest/best answer is, probably I'll end up doing

That strikes me as a fairly aggressive timeline, obviously it depends on
the pages and functionality.

There are zero similarities between S1 and S2. If your S1 app was
well-architected the effort will be confined to the view and controller
layers, at least, but even that is non-trivial.

4)  Test effort.  With all of the code changes required it seems that

If you have no integration tests, then yes, this will be fraught with
potential issues. Again, a well-architected S1 app is in less danger since
the important business logic is already isolated and Struts acts only as a
mediation layer between the client (e.g., the browser or API users) and the
business logic.

The ultimate answer(s) really depends on the nature of your app. If the JSP
pages are simple it might be possible to write a small conversion tool that
does a rough translation between tag libraries; beyond that... it'll be
mostly manual labor.

Not sure, but if nothing else the action should be set to `prototype`

Re: Is the vulnerability documented in CVE-2015-5169 also applicable to Struts 1?

[Dave Newton]

There's no such thing as `devMode` in Struts 1.

Struts 1 vulnerabilities would be in Struts 1 announcements, although with
the EOL, announcements and fixes may never happen.

Struts 1 and Struts 2 have essentially zero in common.

Re: Struts2 Plugin Jquery vs Dojo

[Dave Newton]

Less a concern than the Dojo tags being deprecated for years and using an
incredibly out-of-date Dojo.

You can always use plain JS, too.

  As member of your action you can use a MapString, String. The Map-Key
 is
  the dynamic field name. You need some JS to generate a new input-field in
  the browser. As html-input-name you can use an OGNL expression like
  map['fieldName']. That way struts can set the keys and values in your
  action's map.

Re: Struts Spring dependency

[Dave Newton]

(Personally, I'd just try it.)

If it's not being used, it's not being used--we don't have any way of
knowing if it *actually* isn't being used short of looking at it, but if
you say it works without it, then it probably isn't.

 Hi,

 I have taken over a struts2 application and there is something, that
 confuses me.
 Under WEB-INF there is applicationContext.xml with the following content:
 ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
 !DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC -//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN 
 http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd;
 beans default-autowire=autodetect
 /beans

 And in web.xml there is the following:
 ...
 listener

 listener-classorg.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener/listener-class
 /listener
 ...

 And in pom.xml of course the struts2-spring-plugin is added as dependency.
 In the web application itself, the spring is not used anywhere. If I
 remove the above definitions, the application itself is running and I don't
 see any errors.
 My question is that, does struts2 needs the spring-plugin absolutely? If I
 remove this dependency, would it be safe or what is the best practice here?

 Thanks and kind regards
 Tamer Erdogan

If it's not included in a JSP page it doesn't surprise me too much; are you

Re: validation problem

[Dave Newton]

Unrelated to the technical issue: bear in mind the mailing list is a
volunteer-staffed resource. Nobody is deliberately delaying a
response. We already know you need help. In the US, at least, it's a
fairly major holiday, and people are doing things besides trying to

 Then you're doing something else wrong; never mind.

 You still won't see the messages unless you display them manually.

Re: problem with select tag

[Dave Newton]

Is the property set in the Acton?

 Hi i am using the select tag as below

 s:select  name=branches
  headerKey=-1  headerValue=Select Branch
list=branches   cssClass=select
  required=true  /

 by default it should show select Branch but it is showing one of the
 values as the default value. Am i missing something?

  I want Select Branches as the default option.

Re: which dependencies do i need for xml based validation?

[Dave Newton]

Correct; validation is handled within XWork.

  Hi,
 
  Specifically do I need the commons-validator-xxx.jar for the struts2
  validation?
 

 nope, you don't need it. AFAIK validation should work out of the box, no
 additional dependencies necessary.

 It' easiest to get list of required JARs through maven.

 Christoph

Looks like the jQuery plugin needs to be updated.
