The problems in error handling using Struts validation framework
I have following defined in
struts-config.xml
:
<struts-config>
<form-beans>
<form-bean name="LoginForm" type="com.actionform.LoginForm"/>
</form-beans>
<action-mappings>
<!-- action for login -->
<action input="/views/login.jsp" name="LoginForm" path="/Login" scope="session" type="com.actions.LoginAction"
parameter="method" validate="true">
<forward name="success" path="/views/Frameset.html" />
</action>
</action-mappings>
<message-resources parameter="/WEB-INF/ApplicationResources"/>
<!-- ========================= Validator plugin ================================= -->
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
<set-property
property="pathnames"
value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,/WEB-INF/validation.xml"/>
</plug-in>
</struts-config>
The login form:
public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request) {
ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
if (userName == null || userName.length() < 1) {
System.out.println("in validate ---");
errors.add("userName", new ActionMessage("error.userName.required"));
// TODO: add 'error.name.required' key to your resources
}
if (password == null || password.length() < 1) {
errors.add("password", new ActionMessage("error.password.required"));
// TODO: add 'error.name.required' key to your resources
}
return errors;
}
login.jsp
:
<html:form action="/Login?method=loginUser">
<html:errors/>
<html:text name="LoginForm" proper开发者_Python百科ty="userName" />
<html:messages id="err_userName" property="userName">
<bean:write name="err_userName" />
</html:messages>
</html:form>
Property file:
error.userName.required = User Name is required.
error.password.required = Password is required.
Where am I doing wrong? I am getting the following error
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Cannot find bean error in any scope
I just want to display the error in the same JSP.
After you obtain the ActionMessages
/ActionErrors
object which contains the messages or errors you want to display in your input page (using <html:messages>
tags or <html:errors>
tags), you must call one of the following methods from your Action
object to place the result of your validation in scope:
addMessages(HttpServletRequest request, ActionMessages messages)
or
addErrors(HttpServletRequest request, ActionMessages errors)
Are you doing that?
I'm really do not care how about struts handles an exception. Using old raw code from 1.2 generally when overriding a RequestProcesor
, I should probably replace the two methods - process and processException
. First thing is happy about catching exception from the request after processValidation
has been made. The fragment of code could look like
Exception exception = null;
if (needValidation)
try {
if (! processValidate(request, response, form, mapping)) {
return;
}
exception = (Exception)request.getAttribute(Globals.EXCEPTION_KEY);
} catch (InvalidCancelException ex) {
exception = ex;
}
ActionForward forward;
// Check out if exception occurred
if (exception != null){
forward = processException(request, response, exception, form, mapping);
The second is pretty easy if you have configured the errors forward. The errors forward is usually one of the global forwards that easily found from the mapping. Once it found, it likes to display your error message on the page. I think those would probably enough for processing an exception
exception.printStackTrace();
log.error(exception);
request.setAttribute("error", exception.getMessage());
return mapping.findForward("error");
It has been done because validate method from ActionForm
or ValidatorForm
doesn't throw any exceptions and I couldn't properly override this method without throwing some. Once thrown, who will care about it?!
