I have code for populating form beans dynamically, as follows (I'll
spare you the dirty details of why I'm doing this instead of relying on
Struts' standard form bean population):
String formKey = Constants.FORM_KEY;
getJspContext().findAttribute(formKey);
String formBeanName = formTag.getBeanName();
ActionForm form = (ActionForm) getJspContext().
findAttribute(formBeanName);
BeanUtils.copyProperties(form, source);
Using s:form from the struts-face lib, this fails as (a) there's no
instance of the form tag stored in any scope under that key; and (b)
even if it were, the tag implementation class isn't type compatible with
the standard Struts tag.
So, the first question is should this be considered a bug in so much as
s:form is documented as being functionally equivalent to html:form?
Yah, that sounds like a bug ... or perhaps a change in functionality of the
standard version that needs to be ported to the faces version.
OK, I'll file something for that once I understand what the correct
behaviour should be.
And second, how would I rewrite the above code so it works equivalently
with both form tags?
This one will have to wait until tomorrow ... getting ready to go join the
rest of my family and gorge on a bit of turkey :-).
Happy Thanksgiving!
Fair enough ;-) Enjoy the turkey!
