Thanks for the input. I did some more research and I think I understand the
forms a little better.
The following code will create a DynaActionForm with one String field:
FormBeanConfig formBean = new FormBeanConfig();
FormPropertyConfig fpc = null;
fpc = new FormPropertyConfig();
fpc.setName("testField1");
fpc.setType(java.lang.String.class.getName());
fpc.setInitial("testField1Value");
formBean.addFormPropertyConfig(fpc);
formBean.setType(org.apache.struts.action.DynaActionForm.class.getName());
formBean.freeze();
DynaActionFormClass dFC =
DynaActionFormClass.createDynaActionFormClass(formBean);
DynaActionForm dynaForm = (DynaActionForm)
dFC.newInstance();
I think I know the answer already (my apologies), but will this code break
with new releases of struts.
Thanks
