Try something like:
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse
response)
throws java.lang.Exception
{
DynaActionForm myForm = (DynaActionForm)form;
myForm.set("firstName", "bob");
String forward = "success";
ActionForward af = mapping.findForward( forward );
return af;
}

Subject: Creating a DynaActionForm instance
Hi all,
I've seen this question asked a couple of times in the archives, but
there
weren't any answers that I could find, so I'm giving it another shot. How
can I create an instance of DynaActionForm from inside an Action in order to
prepopulate it with data to be displayed in a jsp form? I tried the
following:
DynaActionForm myForm = new DynaActionForm();
myForm.set("firstName", "bob");
A NullPointerException is thrown. Is it possible to do something like this
with a DynaActionForm? Do I have to go back to the regular ActionForm to
have the ability to create an instance of an ActionForm, populate it, put it
on the Request, and forward to a jsp that will then use the form? Thanks.
Aaron
