I'm trying to validate a sign in form with 2 fileds: email and password. I'm
using standard "required" and "email" validators to check the validity of the
email. As far as I can tell from the debugger output all the errors are added
under org.apache.struts.action.ERROR key like this:
org.apache.struts.action.ERROR={email=[errors.required[Email]]} The email
should exist in the database so there's a verification in SignInAction for
that. If the email doesn't exist I add the respecitve ActionMessage (as
ActionError is deprecated): ActionMessages errors = new ActionMessages();
errors.add("email", new ActionMessage("error.login.not.found"));
saveMessages(request, errors); This guy is added under
org.apache.struts.action.ACTION_MESSAGE key as follows:
org.apache.struts.action.ACTION_MESSAGE={email=[error.login.not.found[]]} So,
when I want to display both errors near my email input field I have to do this:
It doesn't look quite efficient. Here's a bunch of questions: 1. Am I missing a
way of telling html:messages to pick up both errors and messages? 2. Am I
missing a way of converting standard validation errors to messages so that they
are added upder org.apache.struts.action.ACTION_MESSAGE and are picked up by
html:messages with message="true"? 3. ValidatorForm.validate returns
ActionErrors and is not deprecated. I don't get it. Can someone enlighten me on
that? I'm on Struts 1.2.8. Thanks, Borys
