http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5739 Struts fails silently in too many places ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-08-30 21:06 ------- I agree that Stuts could do more to verify the "preflight" status of its configruation files. It's just a matter of getting someone to "make it so" =:0) I'm not enough of an XML expert to know if a schema could solve the problem. Many parts of the logic can't be determined by reading a single configuration. The checks need to be made on the object graph once it is deployed. Once check, for example, might be whether the ActionForm and Action classes can be instantiated. Something that come up in a conversation with another developer was the idea of using JUnit or Struts TestCase to make the checks. Something like this could be run as an Ant task as part of a build. Another idea might be to use an Action to do the verification. The Action has access to everything in the object graph, and it could do a drunkard's walk through the mappings and validator forms to see if everything jived. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
