JavaHelp for struts

I have a web application which uses struts. I also have made the help file and have compiled it as a jar file. How should I integrate the help jar file in the web application.

hi,
I am trying to use JavaHelp in my web application. I tried serverhelp example with javahelp2_0_1 with Tomcat 5.0, it works fine. But when I tried to migrate to Orion server, I got the following errors:
Only java.io.Serializable, javax.ejb.EJBObject and javax.ejb.EJBHome instances can be bound to a session in a distributable web-application, not: javax.help.ServletHelpBroker@1cd4acb (class javax.help.ServletHelpBroker)
there is one line code in jsp file:
<jsp:useBean id="helpBroker" class="javax.help.ServletHelpBroker" scope="session" />
which required ServletHelpBroker to implement Serializable because it is put in the session. I check ServletHelpBroker, it is not implement Serializable interface, obviously.
Just wondering how come it works in Tomcat, not in Orion. Is it a bug in JavaHep 2.0 or a bug in Orion, how can I go around this problem?
Thanks.

Problem for Struts action to insert multiple records

I am writting a code for Struts action which inserting a single record to table A and multiple records to table B .The architecture that I applied is Struts+Spring+iBatis.The multiple records are come from a 10-rows table in the design.The name of each column element is same.The field name other than these are just single-row field.
<tr>
<td><input name="date" type="text" size="12" /></td>
<td><input name="billno" type="text" size="8" /></td>
<td><input name="desc" type="text" size="11" /></td>
<td><input name="purpose" type="text" size="20" /></td>
<td><input name="proName" type="text" size="6" /></td>
<td><input name="trainingCost" type="text" size="5" /></td>
<td><input name="travelCost" type="text" size="7" /></td>
<td><input name="entCost" type="text" size="5" /></td>
<td><input name="miscCost" type="text" size="5" /></td>
</tr> I am using three DTO objects to hold the data.claimArray is the ClaimDTO array that hold the multiple record insert to table B.claimdto is the object that hold the single field record to table A.claim_dtldto is the object that hold the single field record to table B.
PK of table A and table B are claimNo and claimDtlNo respectively.claimNo is also FK of table B. HTMLUtil is just an API that I used it for type conversion.There will have two insert statements in iBatis xml, insertClaim & insertClaimDtl to insert data into table A and table B respectively.I not sure what went wrong in the code,the data is not inserted into db.Thank advanced for you guys help..
This is the codes in Action file:
public class InsertClaimAction extends SpringAction {

Two things; you need to pass #number# as a form field and you
need to pull the correct record out.
Use this:
<cfloop list="#form.fieldnames#" index="fieldName">
<CFSET record = Evaluate("form.record_#number#")>
</cfloop>
Here's some example code:

JavaHelp for web app?

Hello,
I'm trying to include JavaHelp for our web application.
Has anyone used this tool or any other tool with javascript for displaying help for web apps?
I tried to follow the browser demo that is in applet and comes with javahelp zip. It worked fine for me, but when tried to follow the same setting for the web application, I am getting this error.
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.inmedius.mentor.support.amecr.JavaHelpApplet

     at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)I know it cannot find the class, but I'm not sure how to configure it.
I have the following call to applet:

     <PARAM NAME = HELPSETURL VALUE ="AMECR/GAPIHelp.hs">
     <PARAM NAME = HELPSETNAME VALUE ="GAPIHelp">
</Applet>Also, since applet approach is not that much favored, do you know if any other way to include this tool within web applications or any other tool that would do the same thing?
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Yes, as long as you conform to what the HelpSet specifies you can use Servlets / JSPs.

What do I download for Struts/JSP/Hibernate?

My organization has purchased a five-user license for "Workshop" and I would like to use it for Struts/Hibernate/JSP development. However, it's not clear what I need to download and install.
I tried downloading and installing both of these files:
workshopstudio102_win32.exe
workshop102_win32.exe
In both cases, after the dust settled there was no application called "Workshop" on my Windows XP system.
There is now something called "WorkSPACE Studio 1.1." ("Space," not "shop.")
What is "WorkSpace Studio?" I never heard of it before I ran this installer.
What is the difference between "Workshop Studio" and "Workshop for WebLogic?"
What do I download to get Eclipse-based Struts/JSP/Hibernate development tools?
How do I install it?
Thanks,
Ethan
Edited by ethanmichaels at 03/26/2008 4:48 PM

Hi Ethan,
The license you have purchased is for WorkshopStudio 10.2
This allows you to develop Struts/Hibernate/JSP applications against both BEA and non BEA servers.
Workshop for WebLogic allows users to develop applications against BEA WebLogic Servers and does not require a special license
More information on Workspace Studio is available at http://edocs.bea.com/wlw/docs102/workspaceFAQ.html
Hope this helps
cheers

Junit testcase for struts application

Hi All,
can anyone provide me the Junit sample testcase for struts application.

> can anyone provide me the Junit sample testcase for struts application.
The test code for the framework is downloadable with the source:
http://struts.apache.org/download.cgi#struts208
If you want unit tests for your web app, you'll need to write those yourself. Plenty examples can be found with Google:

RAD7 support for struts

Support for struts in RAD7 is added at the time of installation.But,
if support for struts was not addedat the time of istallation of RAD7(Rational Application Developer) ......, is there any way we to add support for struts,for developing struts applicaiton in RAD 7...?

Hi Ashish,
a brief answer, Portal 7.0 does not have the possibility to make usage of Struts within the Portal Framework.
7.0 has 'WebFlow' as a MVC pattern and you design your processing flow logic with the help of EBCC.
8.1 Platform and specifically Java Page Flow is based on Struts. Here you can make use of Struts Actions by Portlets and Portal applications.
Please see following links for some further information on Java Page Flow and Struts:
http://dev2dev.bea.com/products/wlworkshop81/articles/Dew.jsp
http://dev2dev.bea.com/products/wlworkshop81/articles/Feit.jsp
For your requirement I believe 8.1 would be a better choice.

CONTAINER FOR STRUTS

what container/server I need for run struts applications ?
which is best development tool for struts application development ?

what container/server I need for run struts
applications ?Servlet container or complete appserver. Did you ever
consider to read the Struts documentation?Good idea. One suggestion would be Sun's application server. (I'm completely bias as that is what I use, but I believe JBOSS also works, as well as a myriad of others).
>
which is best development tool for strutsapplication
development ?
The one that you are familiar with/like. I use several tools for it. I have eclipse, notepad, ant, as well as a few other programs.
>
There is no special tool for that for all I know.
Oh, and just in case you might not hve noticed: this
is not a Struts forum.While I do agree with this, it's at least related to java - at least as much as setting your path is (which i consider to be more of an admin thing) or which is the best editor. They are all somewhat related to java either very directly or indirectly.

Documentation for Struts

Does anybody out there have know of any good source of documentation
for Struts ?

Document Management System for Struts Project

Deployment validation failing to load DTDs for Struts

I copied the referenced .DTDs locally and after adding the full path to the local copies, things worked fine. Unfortunately this is just a big hack. I would like to know either:
1. how to package the things so that a local copy of the DTDs that I include in a .ear file can be found, or
2. how to configure proxy settings in weblogic so I can validate against remote DTDs.
Any ideas?

the exception seems to suggest that you cant connect to the outside world. Can you check if you can connect to the mentioned remote server from your deployment machine ?

Actually, I just realized it's the exact same syntax as regular html (which I was thinking, but for some reason it didn't work the night I posted):
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="yourstylesheet.css"/>
</head>I'm not sure why it didn't work for me the first time.
