Re: Handling Date objects in ActionForm gracefully
I think the way of going about converting is pretty open, either have
some conversion utils between the web tier and the model. I tend to do
it in the action and then when things get long or i need the code again
move it out into a util class or like you're saying make my model util
classes deal with strings (this makes a lot of sense as then other
front ends can be plugged on).
Talk of MVC aside (after all MVC is a broader issue than the particular
pattern that struts is based on) why piss about dealing with all sorts
of errors and exceptions being thrown in the place where its hardest to
deal with them?
You can and people do use different types for form beans, but I just
don't see the point. Date comes up often and lets face it dates are
more user friendly as dropdown menus rather than free text, so
getDay() , getMonth() and getYear() IMO are a simpler way of going
about things. Then have methods in you model that create a date based
on that, or have a util class in the web tier as you can deal with
validating the three values. Perhaps even have a date that's in you
form bean but is set and got (passed participle of get) via string
flavors day, month and year.
Not sure if this works but I think the idea is valid (corrections
welcome).
public class SomeForm extends ActionForm {
private Calendar aDate = Calender.instance();
public String getDay() {
int d = aDate.get(Calendar. DAY_OF_MONTH);
return Integer.toString(d);
}
public void setDay(String day) {
aDate.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,Integer.parseInt(day));
}
...
protected Date getAdate() {
return dDate.getTime();
}
}
This way come checking and comparing values before can be done, before
passing anything up to you model. Many folk would say that this should
be done in the model, but i'd say situations where you need to check if
a user has entered a valid date (e.g. expire and from dates with a
credit card).
This functionality will want to be produced even if you change the
model , if you wanted to demo your web tier on its own (without a model
e.g acme ltd credit card form) and therefore doing it ONLY in the
model would be limited.
Very much IMO and I'm not MVC guru, but that's my understanding.

You deal with the conversion else where but not in the form bean, you
can argue about it or just believe me. The action form sits between the
view and the action, the date conversion goes on between the action and
the model.
Your approach isn't that bad its just not to the MVC pattern that
struts follows (not that its the only one).
Create a date convertion util class or something.
If you dont want to take my word for it here's what craig had to say
albeit in response to a different question
snippet
As the original designer of Struts :-), I must point out that the
design of
ActionForm (and the recommendation that form bean properties be
Strings) is
***very*** deliberate. The reason this is needed is obvious when you
consider
the following use case:
* You have an input form that, say, accepts only integers.
* Your form bean property is of type int.
* The user types 1b3 instead of 123, by accident.
* Based on experience with any garden variety GUI application,
the user will expect that they receive an error message,
plus a redisplay of the form ***WITH THE INCORRECT VALUES
THAT WERE ENTERED DISPLAYED SO THE USER CAN CORRECT THEM***.
* The current Struts environment will throw an exception
due to the conversion failure.
* The suggested solution
Re: Handling Date objects in ActionForm gracefully
Freddy. No, you misunderstood if you thought I was responding with any
hostility whatsoever.
There is a general problem where input would be better validated in the
web tier so it can be decoupled from the model. So times comparing two
dates would be useful and so on. But i think its also try to say that
using anything but strings for user input will lead to problems.
And my suggestion could well be incorrect, I was putting it out there
to see what response it would provoke.

While the JavaDocs do imply this should work, when I looked in the

In fact, I can find no reference to 'unspecified' anywhere in
LookupDispatchAction.
So I think there is a disconnect. Maybe LookupDispatchAction is broken
and should be fixed to also use 'unspecified', or maybe its JavaDocs
should explicitly state that it does not utilize the 'unspecified'
behavior of its parent class. Or, maybe I missed something and didn't
implement correctly?

Is there another way to do this? Is it worth suggesting that

Struts does not include any sort of user interface component model
where the
details of conversion are hidden inside the user interface component.
If that
is what you are after, you should look at a *real* user interface
component
model (such as using JavaServer Faces with a Struts application).
Corrupting
the functionality of a form bean to *pretend* that it is a user
interface
component is only going to create complications for the world.

Re: AW: Re[2]: are you sure?
submitting to the server returning an action message with a checkbox
(check to confirm). and then resubmitting I reckon would be nicer than
a javascript dependency.
html:form action=/save.do
logic:messagesPresent bla bla (i hate this tag)
Are you sure you want to do that or are you just being a punk?br
html:checkbox property=confirmed value=true /
/logic: messagesPresent
html:submit /
/html:form
in the action something like ..
boolean confirmed = theForm.getConfirmed().equals(true);
if(!confirmed) {
ActionMessages messages= blas bla
saveMessages(bla bla);
}

If JavaScript is disabled neither of solutions work properly. But with

In submit-scenario the submition is taken place without JavaScript
preprocessing (onSubmit event) wich could not be accepted sometimes,

JS In the Jsp, I put the following code in the head:

JS if(agree){
JS ... some code which is not important

JS Whatever the user clicks, yes or no, the form
JS gets submitted. I want to stop submitting the

Re: There *has* to be an easy way to do this...
Your using OM objects and stuffing them into your view but this should still work anyhow.

Re: Indexed Property
I don't know how helpful those examples are in reality as there are a
few details missing..
So here's an example.
Personally i like nesting forms although this isn't to everyone's

request and the example was provided by Paul Chip on the list a few
weeks back.

public class ItemsForm extends ActionForm {
private List itemList;
public ItemsForm() {
initLists();
}
private void initLists() {
Factory factory = new Factory() {
public Object create() {
return new ProductForm();
}
};
this.itemList = ListUtils.lazyList(new ArrayList(), factory);
}
public List getItems() {
return itemList;
}
public void setItems(List itemList) {
this.itemList = itemList;

public ItemForm getItem(int index) {
return (ItemForm) itemList.get(index);

}
}

ItemsForm theForm = (ItemsForm) form;
ItemForm item = new ItemForm();
item.setName(First Item);
ItemForm anotherItem = new ItemForm();
anotherItem.setName(Second Item);
theForm.setItem(0,item);

Sorry I didn't think about the potential confusing of using item

What does you form bean look like dyna or otherwise?

What characters have you in your strings ?
There must be something a quote or something give js a bad day.
I assume you've something like this.
msg1 = bean:message key=message1 /;
msg2 = bean:message key=message2 /;
msg3 = bean:message key=message3 /; msg = msg1 +\n+ msg2

If I remove the \n character it works. When I code

Re: Pls help on shopping cart App
A little off topic .. but does weblogic actually cost money? Sounds worse then Jrun to me. Anyway if I understood the problem, if weblogic struts which I assume is struts 1.0 doesn't support indexed=true (as struts 1.0 doesn't) then you have to put the index in youself logic:iterate id=item name=basketForm property=items indexId=index % java.lang.String item = item[+ java.lang.Integer.toString(index) +]; pageScope.setAttribute(item,item); % html:text name=%= item % property=price / /logic:iterate Again, perhaps I didn't understand the question, or perhaps things look more like this. logic:iterate id=item name=basketForm property=items indexId=index % java.lang.String price = price[+ java.lang.Integer.toString(index) +]; pageScope.setAttribute(price, price); % html:text property=%= price % / /logic:iterate I assume this is how matey boy fixed his weblogic struts problem.

Re: DynaValidatorForm for java.lang.Integer
Use String. Anything else is asking of trouble. According to the party line (ref: struts dev list) action form properties should always be of type string. You can still validate whether a string is 1 for example or whether it looks like a date whatever, it doesn't have to be typed as such.

Re: Database backed forms
If there's talk of having action forms populated by themselves then I wouldn't.

Keep the action form only for temporarily holding the data we're input/outputting and do all work in the actions.

Re: Way tho highlight error form field
You could modify the client-side validation stuff to do this rather
than just alerting.
An easy way of layering this on is to define a compulsory array of
fields and then loop through the form on validation. changing the
borderColor style attribute when you have a match between the element
name and your array.
compulsary = [name,email];
function validate(form) {
for(i = 0;i compulsary.length;i++) {
field = compulsary[i];
value = form.elements[field].value;
if(value == ) {
form.elements[field].style.borderColor = #ff;
}
}

Then you can think about having your compulsary array populated in the
same way as the struts validator client-side stuff. In fact you could
use the array then it defines.

Re: java.lang.VerifyErrror - Illegal stste of Jump or Branch
Why not populate an array and use that ? If doing it in the action seems a little tiresome then JSTL could help. It will be tidier than including a page with a bunch of options in.

Re: Context relative URL

Stop trying to put everything in the event

//perhaps create an array to preload.
images = [inico];
function mover(name) {
document.images[name].src = imgdir + name +-over.gif;
}
function mout(name) {
document.images[name].src = imgdir + name +.gif;

Context relative URL
Hello!
I have the following HTML img tag:
html:img page=/images/inicial.gif border=0
onmouseover=this.src='/images/inicio-over.gif'
onmousedown=this.src='/images/inicio-down.gif'
onmouseout=this.src='/images/inicio.gif'/
The problem is that the page attribute is ok, img tag add the app
context
before de page attribute and the image appears. But the others images
in the
javascript events dosn't appear because struts doesn't put the app
context
before the address.
I got the following HTML:
img src=/myapp/images/inicio.gif border=0
onmouseover=this.src='/images/inicio-over.gif'
onmouseout=this.src='/images/inicio.gif'
onmousedown=this.src='/images/inicio-down.gif'
How can I have this generated with all the images with myapp before
the
source of the image? Like this:
img src=/myapp/images/inicio.gif border=0
onmouseover=this.src='/myapp/images/inicio-over.gif'
onmouseout=this.src='/myapp/images/inicio.gif'
onmousedown=this.src='/myapp/images/inicio-down.gif'

Re: Switching from HTTPS to HTTP
There's some java thingy you can use to do this, sslext or something..
If you are using apache for your webserver you can use mod_rewrite
which means less hassle configuring development envionments and such
like.
Here's an example.
NameVirtualHost machinedomain.net:80
VirtualHost www.sparrow.com:80
DocumentRoot /www/www.sparrow.com
SSLEngine off
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} ^80$
RewriteRule ^\/checkout
https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} [R,L]
RewriteRule ^\/admin https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_FILENAME}
[R,L]
/VirtualHost
Listen *:443
NameVirtualHost [i used the ip here]:443
VirtualHost www.sparrow.com:443
DocumentRoot /www/www.sparrow.com
SSLEngine on

Re: Switching from HTTPS to HTTP
You could use a filter which without knowing anything about it i
imagine what sslext does.
Better than hardcoding redirects. jstl may have something to force the
scheme also. IMO doing it with mod_rewrite is easier because you any
have to worry about your live deployment, but if you're using catalina
as your webserver then I guess that you're going to have to configure
that.

Hi, all
I want the struts application have an internal timer. When the

forwarded to another html link. I know the java.util.timer and
java.util.TimerTask can do such thing. Maybe I can put the timer class
stuff in HttpSessionListener or ServletContextListener, but I just
have no idea how to forward a page inside the TimerTask class not
inside action as usual?
So did anyone come across the similar problem? Could you shed me
light on it?
Thanks in Advance.

Changing position of nested beans
I was wondering if anyone has found any slick, no javascript dependent solution to the following situation. My question in short is, is there a way of having an indexed dispatch action, or have i been on the crack again? I have a form of nested beans which are ordered according to a position stored in the model. I don't do any sorting in the web tier nor do i want to, other than rejigging the indices of some indexed properties until such a time as the user is ready to save his/her changes to the model. form name=foosForm action=/myapp/save.do input type=text name=foo[0].name input type=text name=foo[1].name input type=text name=foo[2].name /form Now when i save I'll save the index as a field called position, thus all that's fine and dandy. So lets say I want the use to define the position by having a move up and move down, but rather than using an indexed link i want to use a button. I've a lookup dispatch action with a moveup method and all that jazz. html:form action=/save.do logic:iterate id=foo name=foosForm property=foos html:text name=foo property=name indexed=true / html:submit property=method indexed=true bean:message key=button.moveup / /html:submit /logic:iterate /html:form So the rendered html would like like this form name=foosForm action=/myapp/save.do input type=text name=foo[0].nameinput type=submit name=method[0] value=Move Up //and so on /form Of course if i submit this to a lookupdispatch action, its gonna call me a crazy fool. So i need to have some means of having an indexed map key in my key method map, or something to cross the same bridge i'm trying to cross. Any ideas? I know i can do this in javascript which i will once i get things running without it, please no javascript suggestions. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Changing position of nested beans
The only reason why dispatch action appeals is that i can map the form to one action and have several buttons within a form without needing to change to form action with javascript or anything grotty like that. I'm not especially keen dispatch actions . Just this business of using links and the request being cleared leaves me scoping to session and using a link, again i'm not that against scoping to session but I thought someone in the anti httpsession brigade would have a solution for this common problem. I don't think I'm tree-barking but ruminating on dispatch action (although i'm not certain). I'm trying various ways and seeing what happens. But indexed handler parameters seem like the sort of thing that would be required to do such a thing, but seem to be more the consequence of a crack induced state of derangement than something that struts supports.

The keys in the Properties object are not static. These values need to be shown in a form.

Re: Cookies And Session Problems
As a general point life gets less confusing when you retrieve you objects one at a time rather than drilling through several at once.. When you get used to using stuff on a daily basis then of course you're going to start opting for one line rather than several. but IMO you better thinking/coding like this until you get used to messing with these things. HttpSession session = request.getSession(); session.setAttribute(foo,bar); if you wanted t o get to the application scope to shortest way in an actions would be ServletContext context = getServlet().getServletContext(); or words to that effect. Might be an egg sucking lesson but seems to be this trendy coding style thats confusing you. So could very well be useful.

I've read nearly all of Ted Husted's Struts In Action book and browsed the mailing list archives but have not found a solution for what I want to do. I mention this to let you know that I have already tried hard, unsuccessfully, to find an answer to what seems to me to be a basic requirement. However, I may be struggling with my own misunderstanding! Frank: Don't blame yourself: you've stumbled onto one of my personal top priorities to improve in Struts: prefilling forms with non-request data. While I was writing this, John McGrath described a general strategy which works *if* you don't already need to use the single ActionForm that is passed to Action.execute for processing *input* data. However, in most cases, you have a chain of events where you have different input and output forms. We've developed a few strategies for ealing with this where I work, but they're all the sort of thing which may not be ready for prime time -- that is, officially adding to the Struts core. Right now, Struts doesn't provide a particularly convenient way to get an instance of what we call the output form -- the form which will be in the view to which control is directed. Since 1.2.0, I've committed a few changes which make it a little easier for you to get Form Bean instances, but what is still missing right now is a proposal for a standard place to configure Struts to know which form bean you want. Practically speaking, you can get an Object of the right class from a static method of RequestUtils with no more than a FormBeanConfig and the ActionServlet. You can get a FormBeanConfig from a ModuleConfig instance, which you can get using ModuleUtils. So inside any Action, you can bootstrap yourself to having a Form bean object, which you can populate however you need. http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/util/ RequestUtils.htm l#createActionForm(org.apache.struts.config.FormBeanConfig,%20org.apach e.str uts.action.ActionServlet) http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/config/ ModuleConfig.h tml#findFormBeanConfig(java.lang.String) http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/util/ ModuleUtils.html #getModuleConfig(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest) One possible flaw with this (as it is now) is that it doesn't honor the scope parameter and search the request or session for possibly existing bean instances. Of course, that code is available inside non-public methods of RequestUtils; it's just a matter of choosing the right way of exposing them publicly. The sticky parts, in terms of packing this up so that it's easy for everyone to use in Struts is configuring the form bean name and scope in the right place -- where in the struts-config.xml (or in some other file) would you tell Struts the name (and scope) of the bean you want? At work, we're using the struts-chain ComposableRequestProcessor with a request chain command PagePrep, which looks up config information and choreographs finding a form bean and making it available to a piece of Java code which might know how to populate it. But Struts is still a good bit away from officially switching to the ComposableRequestProcessor, and our config information is part of a general UIToolkit which is not currently a part of Struts in any way. The general strategy we use would fit decently well into a Tiles Controller, except that a Tiles Controller doesn't have access to the running Servlet, and if you use ValidatorForms, your FormBean must have access to the Servlet object. There's been some talk about trying to apply the general controller pattern to all Struts forwards, and in some ways, that's what we do with our PagePrep strategy, but it's been a while since anyone suggested a specific approach, and I don't think I've ever seen any actual code to do it. I'd be open to community discussions about how to integrate some behavior like this into Struts before we get there, but I must admit that since I have a solution where I need it, I'll need some external motivation to work on a solution that fits into the current RequestProcessing model. This was discussed at great length last Spring (that long ago?!) http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=struts-devm=105415755227385w=2 but nothing ever congealed the point where code was cut for the core Struts distribution.

You said the results are in the application scope already. so you want

so in you servlet theres something like

context.setAttribute(people, peopleList.toArray());
..
c:forEach var=person items=${people} begin=${param.index}

c:out value=${person.name} /

Subject: RE: Best way to handle big search results..
We have to work with search results that are sometimes 1000+
items in size.
In addition, much of the information we have is not keyed so
we cannot say
give results between id 2000 and id 20020.
Some things I found to help with search results where we did
do in memory
sorting/paging were:
1. Create view-specific lightweight objects to be pulled
from the DB
2. Memory allowed, it's faster to pull them all at once
than lazy load
4. The real cause of some of our performance problems were
the JSP's/HTML in
rendering a huge list to the client vs. only showing 20 at once.
To handle this, I created a SearchResultListAdaptor that

Re: Best way to handle big search results..
I think html rendering is the least of his worries :o) I'm surprised you can get that many records into the application context in the first place.

But. I'm already doing paging. Each independant account table only returns the first 10 detail records; everything is available by paging through the next 'n' pages. For example, one of my clients has access to almost 8900 accounts. Of these accounts, there are about 3500 with reported data in the past 90 days. In the past month alone, these 3500 accounts have almost 48000 detail records. So I'm returning (probably not all 3500 accounts, but a good majority of 'em) say 2000 tables, with potentially 10 detail records per table. Each table has seven columns, so just for the tables I'm returning about 320,000 lines of html. I'm really starting to think this is a client side rendering issue - the browser simply can't process the number of lines of html that I'm pushing it.

On any given day I will be reporting on about 80,000 accounts with over 300,000 detail records available for the past 90 days. My clients are using this data to determine employment elgibility, etc. The majority of these clients are individual employers that might have between 1 and 100 accounts. These are no problem. The 'problem' clients are organizations that handle this type of work for multiple employers on a contract basis. These clients can and do have several thousand accounts that could *potentially* have data that needs to be reported. The approach I took was to write a separate servlet that wakes up every hours, re-sweeps the account code table, re-sweeps the data table, reconciles these into a set of nested maps, and places it into application scope. Part of this process throws out any account that doesn't have data to be reported, otherwise I'd be trying to handle 200,000 accounts. Based on the account and type of data the user can 'see', they are presented a list of accounts where they can pick one, many, or all. The application then accesses the map structure in application scope, extracts the appropriate data based on account, date range, etc., and returns a set of display / tables to the user. These table are required to be independantly sortable, pagable, etc. Again, for up to 100 or so accounts, this is extremely fast. It just goes down the toilet once I start getting over about 500 accounts.

JSP context in an action
Does anyone know how to retrieve the servlet context of a given jsp and place an object in that context (say a map) and then request the page ? I've been putting together a email templating system using velocity, but logic tells me i can do this using the servlet and struts api's without using velocity. Velocity wont let me retrieve the *.vm file without extending velocity servlet which i dont see as nessesary other than to do this. I want to do something like this DynaActionForm theForm = (DynaActionForm) form; jspContext = ... Map map = BeanUtils.describe(theForm); jspContext.setAttribute(email,map); //and now request the page and stream it. .. ??? My nose is firmly lodged in the servlet and struts api's, just hoping someone can help nudge me in the right direction. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: JSP context in an action
I'm still chewing on the problem. But a custom tag lib would seem a
possibility. I ended up using a velocity servlet and doing things that
way, my aim in trying otherwise was not to have to use velocity as its
another bunch of libraries that in theory I shouldn't need.
Ideally i'd have a template directory under WEB-INF where numb-nuts
dreamweaver types can edit email templates and i particularly like the
expression syntax which is like jsp2. So i was trying to think of a way
of using just that.
Velocity would be a really tidy way of doing things if the
VelocityEngine class had a getTemplate method that takes in a file
rather than just a string. At the moment I've a velocity servlet thats
really only there to get around this problem.
But as things are its not that bad i've have just preferred not having
to have a velocity servlet running just to find the where abouts of the
template.
Using jsp even better as everythings already there, just how to drill
to what i need. RequestDispatcher could be an option request the file
get its context and then stuff the map in there, but could be
tree-barking or/and smoking too much crack.

Depends how you've done things. If your items are nested in a form (indexed/mapped proerties) you could have a total that is calculated there. Thus no need to do it in an action or a jsp.

Re: calculating sum inside logic:iterate
I see what you're saying. But at the same time, if you wanted to develop a shopping cart that you could plug onto any model. Then IMO calculating in a web tier bean say an action form isn't the most evil thing in the world. I agree entirely that the total should be calculated in the model, before say saving to the db. But I think there's a case for doing this in the web-tier. On 2 Mar 2004, at 17:39, Nick Wesselman wrote: Technically this seems to be a business method, logic that would be better handled in your model code. So for example you have a ShoppingCart class which has a getItems() method to get your collection of items and a getTotal() method to add their prices.

Re: Tiles problem
all the puts should be have

type=definition
type=page
depending on what it is.
For example if .portfolioLayout is a definition
put name=content value=.portfolioLayout type=definition /
if its a layout then it should be in the definition tag as the
content of the path attribute. The naming convention for layouts
usually refers to those files that are layouts not definitions as such.
definition name=main.base path=/layouts/mainLayout.jsp

!--
function myfuction() {
c:out value=${javascriptHack} /;
}
//--

Re: html:link problem
When i have the misfortune of porting the mother of all abominations
known as dreamweaver generated code I tend to use c:url instead
a href=c:url value=/findtitle.do /
this will do what i think you want.

Hi list,
Just wondering if anyone has any bright ideas. Things that you can do
easily with an a ... tag, are not (easily) acheivable with a
html:link. For instance in the following code:
nested:iterate id=title name=%= Constants.TITLES_COLLECTION %
scope=request indexId=counter
html:link page=/findtitles.do
onmouseover=MM_swapImage('details%= counter %,...)...
/nested:iterate
counter will not resolve, although it will if the tag is an ordinary

Does anyone know a way around this? I have been resorting to using
ordinary a... tags but have just realised that there is no session

The issue is that even without my layout, which contains the body

if I add an onLoad event it is not fired.
I have already tried calling the javascript function from somewhere in
the page however it is always called before the entire page is actually
rendered, which means that certain items on the page that the function
operates on do not have all of their properties.
Is there no way to mimic a body onLoad completely?

Re: struts and DHTML
You want to put all the stuff that you need to be dynamic in div with
id's .. then layer the javascript and css on after. This will allow you
to get a minimal version running (no dhtml) and get the dhtml stuff
running on one browser at a time.
Trying to throw it all in together will push your deadline beyond a
measurable time span. So server-side user agent detection would be
useful, as then you can hide-show dynamic bits when the page is loaded.
Beyond that there's no fixed way of going about the problem, and i
doubt that forte or any tag lib will do it for you.

Xcode isn't as bigger leap at apple would have you believe I had
project builder doing the same sorts of things with ant. But its quite
nice that all the basics are there (JBoss-tomcat, ant, xdoclet) and you
can create you own templates.
Does all you need without messing with your stuff too much like eclipse.
Its a different kettle of fish to the old java development on MacOS
that you mentioned.

Subject: Re: [OT] Maven (was Re: [ANNOUNCE] Struts 1.2.0 Test Build

that lets me define the individual versions of *all* dependencies for
*all* projects so that I can say, for example, use *this* version of
commons-beanutils and *that* version of commons-digester to build
***all*** of the components that are going in to my overall
exectable.
I am *so* not interested in dealing with runtime exceptions because
different dependent packages were compiled against different versions
of the dependent libraries.
Can someone please help me understand how to do this with Maven?
Without it, I'm not planning to switch any of my personal or
internal-to-Sun projects (even if the Struts committers decide to
switch Struts development itself).
This is actually pretty easy, if I understand you correctly. If you
define the Maven property maven.jar.override to the value on,
then when resolving dependencies, Maven will check each against a
possibly defined override.
For example, the version of Cactus that everyone else in Struts uses
doesn't work on Mac OS X. The Cactus CVS head has the patch that
works, so in my Struts/maven environment, I have this defined:
maven.jar.override=on
# patched version of cactus related to Mac OS X:
# http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25266i
maven.jar.cactus-ant=1.6dev-2003-12-07
maven.jar.jakarta-cactus-framework=13-1.6dev
You can use full paths to JARs as well as version numbers. This is
detailed here:
http://maven.apache.org/reference/user-
guide.html#Overriding_Stated_Dependen
cies
Properties are defined like so:
(http://maven.apache.org/reference/user-
guide.html#Properties_Processing):
The properties files in Maven are processed in the following order:
*${project.home}/project.properties
* ${project.home}/build.properties
* ${user.home}/build.properties
Where the last definition wins. So, Maven moves through this
sequence of properties files overridding any previously defined
properties with newer definitions. In this sequence your
${user.home}/build.properties has the final say in the list of
properties files processed. We will call the list of properties
files that Maven processes the standard properties file set.
In addition, System properties are processed after the above chain
of properties files are processed. So, a property specified on the
CLI using the -Dproperty=value convention will override any
previous definition of that property.
So if you wanted to have it universally, you'd define this in
${user.home}/build.properties but if it were just for a specific
project, you'd define it in ${project.home}/build.properties
Did I answer the right question?

When i try to connect to the database using this driver from a test class, it connects no problem so i know that the url and driver class name are correct. So the problem must be the type of DataSource which I am to use. Does anybody know which datasource to use with Microsoft's sqlserver driver? I tried using the DataSource that is in the mssqlserver jar but this didnt work either. The error that I get is an Invalid DataSource. Any help would be really appreciated!
