I think you could do it a couple different ways...
1.
JSP:
<bean:define id="lookupName" value="whateverLookupYouWantToGoto"/>
<html:link forward="test" paramId="updateMethod" paramName="lookupName">
...
</html:link>
2.
JSP:
<html:link forward="gtest" >...</html:link>
struts config:
<global-forwards>
<forward name="gtest"
path="/test.do?updateMethod=whateverLookupYouWantToGoTo"/>
</global-forwards>
I've done similar so either way should work.

Subject: LookupDispatchAction error
I am getting the following error on , which I can't figure out:
HTTP ERROR: 500 Request[/test] does not contain handler parameter named
updateMethod
RequestURI=/clientdb/test.do
I am following a couple of decent examples using the LookupDispatchAction
class (pages 128 -130 in "Programming Jakarta Struts" by Chuck Cavaness). My
config is basically the same as what he has, but I have a couple of minor
differences, which I don't think should be causing any issues, but maybe
someone can put me right:
The JSP link that gives me the error is the following:
<tr><td><li><html:link forward="test"><bean:message
key="test.maintain.label"/></html:link></li></td></tr>
My action mappings section has the following action:
<action-mappings>
<action path="/test"
type="com.kbcam.core.struts.action.TestUpdateAction"
name="testForm"
scope="request"
input="/pages/test.jsp"
parameter="updateMethod"
>
</action>
...
</action-mappings>
I also have a section for the testForm:
<form-beans>
<form-bean name="testForm"
type="com.kbcam.core.struts.form.TestForm"/>
...
</form-beans>
My /pages/test.jsp uses a template, which points at /pages/testcontent.jsp,
which contains the following:
<html:submit property="updateMethod">
<bean:message key="insert.label"/>
</html:submit>
As u would expect, the "insert.label" key is contained in the properties
file (as well as the "test.maintain.label" from the initial link)
insert.label=Insert
test.maintain.label=Maintain Tests
My TestUpdateAction class has the following hierarchy and methods
LookupDispatchAction
|
BaseLookupDispatchAction
|
BaseUpdateAction (methods: getKeyMethodMap (),getKeyMethodMap (params),
insert (params), update (params), delete ()
(Maps "insert.label" to "insert")
|
TestUpdateAction
My TestForm was generated using Xdoclet from the Test.java source code, and
has a protected "updateMethod" string variable, with a getter and setter.
TestForm is inherited from ActionForm
The kind of thing that I'm thinking might be causing the issue include:
1. The hierarchy of TestUpdateAction
2. The fact that /pages/testcontent.jsp is not referenced directly, but
via the following lines in /pages/test.jsp:
<template:insert template='/pages/template.jsp'>
<template:put name='content' content='/pages/testcontent.jsp'/> ...
3. The calling link does NOT in a Form. Its entire contents looks like
this:
<%@ include file="/tags/taglibs.jsp" %>
<center>
<hr>
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr><td><li><html:link forward="test"><bean:message
key="test.maintain.label"/></html:link></li></td></tr>
<tr><td><li><html:link forward="logout"><bean:message
key="logout.label"/></html:link></li></td></tr>
</table>
</center>
Can anyone see anything I'm missing, or anything that I'm just doing
incorrectly????? Any help is much appreciated.
