The implementation of reset in ActionForm is empty. Overriding reset in your descendants to do nothing will have no effect.
Paul -----Original Message----- From: David Chelimsky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 01 August 2003 14:34 To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Formbean Scope Even if you don't write a reset method, the ActionForm's reset method is called on every request. Your only option (that I'm aware of) is to override it: public void reset(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request) {} This will cause reset to do nothing and all your values will remain in tact. If you need a means of clearing these out, you'll have to add another method that you can call from Action1, for example: public void clearForm() { property1 = null; //etc..... } This is because Struts always calls reset on every request, regardless of bean scope. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Goldy J" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Struts Users Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 8:18 AM Subject: Re: Formbean Scope > Thanks a lot David for the prompt reply . Iam actually not using reset method. I have couple of text fields and combobox in JSP2 which I need to prepopulate from JSP1. Do you still recommend using reset or there is any other way. If you can refer to any working example it would be great. > Thanks > > David Chelimsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Try overriding reset() such that it doesn't do anything.
