Jim,
I'm not exactly sure what the book means when they say that "whether you use
an ActionForm or a DynaActionForm should be transparent," but once you use
DynaActionForm, you form is no longer of type RegisterForm (hence the
ClassCastException). You must cast it to DynaActionFrom now as in:
DynaActionFrom rf = (DynaActionForm) form;
Also, you will need to access the data in rf differently now...
rf.get("Name of property");

Subject: question on DynaActionForm
I'm trying to modify the simple Register application from Chapter 1 of
"Struts in Action" to use a DynaActionForm in place on the ActionForm shown
in the book. I've modified struts-config.xml accordingly. According to the
book, whether you use an ActionForm or a DynaActionForm should be
transparent. However, when I attempt to run the modified app I get a
ClassCastException at the following line in RegisterAction.java:
RegisterForm rf = (RegisterForm) form;
I'm sure it's something dumb, but I'm not seeing it. Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
jim
