I am trying to get full grasp on how to decide how to approach which
validator and form to use for my framework.
I've successfully managed to setup demos of ActionForm and
ValidatorForm, as well as DynaActionForm with DynaValidatorForm. (If
some of you are taring your hair out with this, don't forget the
validate="true" and input="..." in your actions... :-) , I'd be glad
to send the sample code as it stand right now too.)
I can see the advantage of DynaActionForm where I don't have to create
a new XYZForm class file for every form I want to use. and I can make a
quick change in the struts config and the form has new or different
fields. I can also add a new form-bean definition and off I go.
I can see how I can also write one SecurityForm class with all the
fields I need it to support for my security components, and then use
that form for login.jsp, registration.jsp, addressInfo.jsp,
phoneInfo.jsp etc... and it seems that in this case the validator will
I guess what I am asking is:
1- What are the performance implications
2- Are there any sets of rules that would define a line where I can
determine if I should use Dyna or 'Plain-jane' Forms
What I like right now is to create one SecurityForm class file will all
the methods I might need in it, and then have various validator xml
definitions for every jsp form. Each JSP form of course submits to its
own action.
Opinions are greatly welcome.
Thanks
