Hi,
I'm familiar with Struts 1, looking at Struts 2. The web app I am
working on needs to use data sources that are controlled by tomcat
connection pooling and accessed through JNDI. For this I need access
to the servlet context that the action is running under.
Previously I had a base action class that all actions extended and
provided a method :
protected Connection getConnection() {
Connection conn = null;
try {
String datasourceName = "jdbc/" +
getServlet().getServletContext().getInitParameter("database");
Context initCtx = new InitialContext();
Context envCtx = (Context)initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env");
DataSource ds = (DataSource)envCtx.lookup(datasourceName);
log.debug("retrieving database connection for " + datasourceName);
conn = ds.getConnection();
log.debug("done");
conn.setAutoCommit(false);
return conn;
}
catch (SQLException ex) {
log.error("error getting a connection", ex);
return null;
}
catch (NamingException ex) {
log.error("error finding the datasource", ex);
return null;
}
}
However, I am completely lost with Struts 2. Everything servlet
dependent is abstracted away "somewhere". I've been looking at the
tutorials and they don't cover this kind of thing at all.
How do I go about putting the equivalent in an action with Struts 2?
Thanks
Chris
