Subject: Using a form for a view
Okay I create a form to collect information
and store it in a database.
<form-bean name="cityForm"
type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm" >
<form-property
name="type"
type="java.lang.String"
initial=""/>
<form-property
name="state"
type="java.lang.String"
initial=""/>
<form-property
name="city"
type="java.lang.String"
initial=""/>
<form-property
name="cities"
type="java.util.ArrayList"/>
</form-bean>
request.setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute() ,cityForm);
Now I want to query the database for this information.
Do I create another form (I will have multiple results)
and knowing I have multiple result sets use the same form
but change all type="java.lang.String" to type="java.util.ArrayList"/>?
request.setAttribute(mapping.getAttribute() ,cityViewForm);
I guess this is somewhat of a newbie question but
How do you normally get the query results of an action
passed to the fowarded jps where I will use jstl to print results.
I'm not talking about populating a form I know how to do this
using forms.
What is practiced for a view?
Do I use a collection? What do I do specifically?
Thanks,
Barry
