How to do programatic validation?

I have a Flex app that is sending data to the server and I would like to validate the Objects being passed on the server side. The Flex app passes the information over an AMF channel and so it does not go through the Struts2 framework. So far, I have found classes such as:

Re: How to do programatic validation?

Don't worry about this. It looks like the commons-validator will be fine and I think thats what the struts2 framework uses underneath anyway. doahh wrote: I have a Flex app that is sending data to the server and I would like to validate the Objects being passed on the server side

Getting property with s:action tag

I have been playing with the s:action tag and have found it impossible to reference any property of the action in a struts2 like way. If I call an action, ActionOne.java and return success then I am redirected to a page called one-success.jsp which has the following: lt;s:action

Load a struts.xml that is not on the classpath

Hi, My app is using the Java Plugin Framework (JPF) to provide plugin functionality. The plugins for my app are not on the classpath as the JPF manages that itself. My plugins have a struts.xml file in them and I would like to be able to load the struts.xml from the plugin into my main app. This

I must be misunderstanding something, is that not what I am already doing my chaining to another action? Andy Hahn wrote: Regarding to the first responder - you could take this a step further and have ActionUnhandledExceptionHandler redirect to another action (Redirect After Post)‏.

I had not considered doing that before so thanks for the input, it would be better. Sorry to the OP for partially hijacking his thread. Andy Hahn wrote: Yes you are chaining, but if you write to a database, for example, the user could refresh the page and re-write to the database. The

I know this is slightly different from the way you are trying it but this is the way I am currently doing it is: lt;global-exception-mappingsgt; lt;exception-mapping exception=java.lang.Exception result=unhandledExceptionHandler/gt; lt;/global-exception-mappingsgt; lt;global-resultsgt;

Does struts2 sanatise the input from forms?

I have been thinking about protecting an app form SQL injection and XSS attacks but currently know very little about this area of security. I started out using the Http Data Integrity Validation Framework (HDIV) but found it was a little to secure in that it broke bookmarks, the back button and

Re: Does struts2 sanatise the input from forms?

Thanks for the great answer Wes. I had to think about it a little but it all makes sense. The interceptor is a good idea for checking data, I hadn't quite gotten that far in my thinking. Wes Wannemacher wrote: On Sunday 18 January 2009 09:34:23 doahh wrote: I have been thinking about

Use jsp:getProperty as value of struts2 tag

Hello, I have a jsp page that uses a custom iterate tag from a custom tag library. The tag puts objects into the pageContext but does not know anything about Struts2 (the values were retrieved through a plugin framework - JPF). While developing my tag I have been using jsp:getProperty to get at

Thank you very much indeed Wes! That is exactly what I am after. I hadn't realised I needed the 'attr' bit in the front, that will teach me not to be so pedantic. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Use-%3Cjsp%3AgetProperty-as-value-of-struts2-tag-tp20381725p20382581.html

Strus2, Freemarker and getting request.getContextPath()

I expect this is probably very easy but I have not seen and description anywhere of how to do it. I currently have this in a Struts2 enabled jsp page: %request.getContextPath()% and need to convert it to freemarker. I have tried the obvious: ${request.contextPath} ${request.getContextPath}

I have set up a very simple test app that is just spring and struts2. It works without a problem. In my main application I have been using a ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(springBeansDefinitionFile) in order to get references to my beans. When I comment this out and add my spring-config file to
