Hi Gary,
It depends what you're trying to do, but hopefully the following
information will be of some help.
- The Quick Start example indicates that
- ${actionBean} can be used if there is just one ActionBean on the
- page, but does not mention the case where there are many.
Actually, ${actionBean} refers to the Action Bean that handled the
last request, providing that you linked to an Action Bean, not to a
JSP. You can have multiple forms in a JSP pointing to different Action
Beans, but there can only be one Action Bean that handled the last
request.
- So all the properties of all the action
- beans must be available throughout the page, even outside the forms
- in which they are used.
-
- Each maps is slightly different, but obviously they
- all have many common properties (width and height of the map display,
- line width, color and opacity etc). So the different action beans do
- have many properties with the same name and data type.
You could have a base Action Bean that contains all the properties
that are common, and have other Action Beans extend the base and add
the properties that are specific to them.
- The <stripes:text> tags were not picking up the values which had
- previously been set in the corresponding Action Bean, indeed they
- were not picking up any default values at all (I am using
- BeanFirstPopulationStrategy to allow the ActionBeans to set default
- values for their properties on exit).
If you link to an Action Bean and use BFPS, <s:text
name="someProperty"/> should pick up the value of someProperty from
the Action Bean to which you linked. If the property is on the base
Action Bean, it should work regardless of which subclass was the
target.
For your multiple forms, you can just have multiple <s:form> tags each
with their own beanclass= attribute. You can indicate the Action Bean
class name, or ${actionBean.class} to create a form that submits to
the last used Action Bean.
Hope that helps. Let me know if you're still having problems.
Cheers,
Freddy
