No luck with the SwitchAction. To recap, I have a "bin" module and a
"datasharing" module, and I want to do a submit from the bin module to an
action in the datasharing module.
In struts-config-bin.xml:
<action path="/switchToDatasharing"
type="org.apache.struts.actions.SwitchAction"/>
In struts-config-datasharing.xml:
<action
path="/multiItem"
name="multiItem"
scope="request"
type="com.bah.ebspnp.datasharing.MultiItemAction">
<forward
name="success"
redirect="true"
path="/homepage.do"
contextRelative="true"/>
</action>
In my JSP in the bin module:
<html:form action="switchToDatasharing">
<input type="hidden" name="prefix" value="/datasharing">
<input type="hidden" name="page" value="/multiItem.do">
And the app barfs:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: ServletException in
'/datasharing/multiItem-body.jsp': Cannot retrieve definition for form bean
null
That actually makes sense to me, because the switchToDataSharing action
doesn't have a form bean. The form bean is in another module, which is the
whole reason I wanted to use SwitchAction in the first place ;)
It looks like Struts does not support this. Of course I can just do HTML
and forget about the <html> tag library, but I would prefer seeing a module
attribute added to the <html:form> tag. Thoughts anyone?
Thanks,
Matt
