2002-01-22 Thread Peter Georgiou

scaling up a strurt app to use ejb

2002-01-21 Thread Peter Georgiou
Hi I'm developing a struts app at the moment using Resin as my JSP engine. I realise its probably overkill to use EJBs right now. However, there may come a time when I need to scale up to a distributed architecture. My question is: how easy/difficult is it to scale my stuts app up to

iterate over bean attributes

2002-01-11 Thread Peter Georgiou
Hi Is there a nice way to iterate over form bean attributes? The only way I can think of is to copy all the form bean attributes to a collection/array and then iterate over that data structure. This situation arises because I'm displaying confirmation page listing all the data from a

Thanks for the replies. I liked both solutions about using wrappers and reflection. I'm going to have a closer look at them. Its not really essential that I use these solutions, but I just think its nice to remove any repeated code where possible. Thanks Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail:

traffic limit on a single machine

2001-12-14 Thread Peter Georgiou
Hi I've been hearing a lot about whether an app needs to be EJB compliant or not. Does anyone know the limits, with regards to traffic, of a single machine running, say tomcat with a struts application. For example, could an app running on a single machine handle 500 hits an hour, or 500,000

I'm using Resin and I don't know too much about Orion, but are they not used for different tasks? Resin as a servlet JSP container, and Orion as an app server/ejb container. Can Resin also be used as an EJB container? Peter - Original Message - From: John M. Corro [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi This may be a bit off-topic, but i'd like some friendly advice with regards to using an app server with an ejb container, with Struts. I've never actually used one b4, so the first step is which one should I choose. I'd like to know as much as possible so that I can follow just one learning

Struts does allow you to place all your files including jsp files under the web-inf directory, and therefore make them much more difficult for outsiders to view. You also don't have to give the name of the jsp file you want to access from a form submission/link. action=someJsp.do in the

forms with duplicate attributes

Hi I'm developing a struts web app with several ActionForm objects which share the same attributes, eg name, address etc. I actually have 3 separate forms which require address details. To cut down on code I've thought of having ActionForms and child ActionForms which inherit their parent's
