Good Evening Lu-
there is a good illustration of this resolution of getText available in Struts
2.1.2 editEmployee.jsp the example is a textfield which pulls attribute
firstName from employee
<s:form name="editForm" action="save">
<s:textfield label="Employee Id" name="currentEmployee.empId"/>
<s:textfield label="%{getText('employee.firstName')}"
name="currentEmployee.firstName"/>
here is the definition for 'save' method defined for EmployeeAction in
struts.xml:
<action name="save"
class="org.apache.struts2.showcase.action.EmployeeAction" method="save">
<result name="input">/empmanager/editEmployee.jsp</result>
<result
type="redirect">edit-${currentEmployee.empId}.action</result>
</action>
public class EmployeeAction extends AbstractCRUDAction implements Preparable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 7047317819789938957L;
private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger(EmployeeAction.class);
private Long empId;
protected EmployeeDao employeeDao;
private Employee currentEmployee; //Note the reference to Employee here
.......
}
and finally the Employee Class
public class Employee implements IdEntity {
private static final long serialVersionUID = -6226845151026823748L;
private Long empId; //textfield w/ conversion
private String firstName; //the sought after firstName attribute
private String lastName; //the sought after lastName attribute
....
}
