I'm trying to figure out the validation framework, and I don't have a clear
understanding from the docs I've read where I'm going wrong, so if someone
could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.
I'm trying to validate ONLY when a particular method of an action class is
being called. The action class is called ScheduleDetailAction and the method
is called update().
If I name the validation file ScheduleDetailAction-validation.xml, the
validation is invoked, but it is invoked ALL of the time, I only want it
when the update() method is called.
I'm reading that the naming convention I need to use for the xml file is
ActionName-ActionAlias-validation.xml, but what exactly an "ActionAlias" is
isn't clear to me.
The method is called from a form on a jsp page as follows:
<s:form action="ScheduleDetailAction_update" validate="true">
I've tried calling the validation file
ScheduleDetailAction-update-validation.xml and
ScheduleDetailAction-ScheduleDetailAction_update-validation.xml (and about
15 other things!!!) and I cannot get the validation to be invoked BEFORE the
update method is called.
Any suggestions as to what I'm doing incorrectly would be greatly
appreciated.
You have to specify in your struts.xml that the validation doesn't apply
to the other action methods. To do that in the reference of the default
interceptor/interceptor stack for your action you specify parameters for
interceptors, like this:
<interceptor-ref name="yourInterceptorStack" >
<param name="workflow.excludeMethods">method1,
method2</param>
<param name="validation.excludeMethods">method1,
method2</param>
</interceptor-ref>
With this, you are telling that the methods method1 and method2 won't be
validated.
