Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Null values in Callable Statements

Kostas--
We have observed null pointer Exception when when executing Stored
Proc Models with a null parameter value.By the way, I've made the change that you suggested in your post back on the
21st and it will be in an upcoming release. I've changed line 472 of
StoredProcModelBase.java from this:
if (value==null || UNILATERALLY_REGISTER_INPUT_TYPE)
statement.setObject(i+1,value,descriptors.getSQLType());
else
statement.setObject(i+1,value);
to this:
if (value==null)
statement.setNull(i+1,descriptors[i].getSQLType());
else
if (UNILATERALLY_REGISTER_INPUT_TYPE)
statement.setObject(i+1,value,descriptors[i].getSQLType());
else
statement.setObject(i+1,value);
Thanks for the info, and keep 'em coming!

Hi,
I wanted to know how the getValues() method works the reason being,
when the tiled view is NOT bound to a model, it populates all the
fields with the same name as some thing like
PageDetail.rDetail[0].tbFieldValue
PageDetail.rDetail[0].tbFieldValue
in which case, the getValues() method works fine.
But in case where the tiled view is bound to a model, it populates
with different field names such as,
PageDetail.rDetail[0].tbFieldValue
PageDetail.rDetail[1].tbFieldValue
in this case, the getValues() doesn't work. Any soultion to this?
We are using Moko 1.1.1.
thanks in advance,
raju.

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Re: Retrieving all Values from a Tiled View

Todd,
Let me try to explain you this time. I have a text field in a TiledViewBean.
When I display the page, the text field
html tag is created with the name="PageDetail.rDetail[0].tbFieldName" say
five times/rows with same name.
The html tags look like this.
<input type=text name="PageDetail.rDetail[0].tbFieldName" value=""
maxlength=9 size=13>
<input type=text name="PageDetail.rDetail[0].tbFieldName" value=""
maxlength=9 size=13>
<input type=text name="PageDetail.rDetail[0].tbFieldName" value=""
maxlength=9 size=13>
When the form is submitted, I want to get the text field values using the
method getTbFieldName().getValues() which
returns an array object[]. This is in case where my TiledViewBean is not
bound and it is working fine.
Now in case when my TiledView is bound to a model, it creates the html tags
as follows.
<input type=text name="PageDetail.rDetail[0].tbFieldName" value=""
maxlength=9 size=13>
<input type=text name="PageDetail.rDetail[1].tbFieldName" value=""
maxlength=9 size=13>
<input type=text name="PageDetail.rDetail[2].tbFieldName" value=""
maxlength=9 size=13>
Now when I say getTbFieldName().getValues() it returns only the first
element values in the object[] and the rest of the
values are null.
May be we need to create a utility method do get these values from
requestContext.
raju.

Without further clarification, I can say that the setValues() methodsNEVER

multiple fields on the same row. Perhaps what you are seeing is theeffect
of default values. Model that derive from DefaulModel have the ability to
carry forward the values set on the first row to other rows in lieu ofdata
in those other rows. This behavior is for pure convenience and can be
turned off, and it is turned off for the SQL-based models.

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] TiledView - getting Values

Kostas--
This is because in TiledViewBase.mapRequestParameters(), calling
getChild(String name, int tile) before setting the values in the request,
will not set the location for the models other that the primary model-
effectively we are only setting one value (more that once if there aremany
values being submitted). So we get the value of the last value in thetiled
view. This is because getChild only changes the location on the primary
model. Which is why I the following code change worked.Ah, I admit I didn't connect the problem to this. Thanks ver much for
clarifying.
As you stated it might be better to add a place holder for all other
auxillary models and keep them in sync with the primary model.Agreed, this sounds like the correct approach. My unstated assumption was
that all location changes to the primary model would also occur on the
auxiliary models, so that would mean that the mapRequestParameters() method
would then work as intended.
How about making the primary model the controlling model. We would have to
"prime" the other models to ensure they all have the same number of rowsas
the highest model for the request. Otherwise we will the followingsituation
I detailed in the prevoius email:That works for me, but it will no doubt result in some strange behavior for
someone down the road. I'll see what's possible about syncing primary and
auxiliary models more explicitly, or at least checking for the situation
where the primary has more rows than the other models.
This way developers would not have to determine if a DisplayField is bound
to non primary model and do additional processing. I suppose it is aslight
design question as well. Enforcing a MVC approach is about going to the to
the Model to get you data. Onthe other hand NetDynamics just allowed youthe
get the value(s) of a field regardless of the Data Object it was or wasn't
bound to.Right, and I think it's important for JATO developers to preserve both techn
iques. The nice thing the technique of accessing the fields directly gives
you is the ability to obtain data in a non-model-specific way. This can be
just as valuable as providing model-only interactions.
Thanks for your feedback Todd. Let me know what you think.Same to you. I hope others on the list have similar suggestions that they
share with us. I think the above approach is sound and I'll be putting it in
for the next patch version, 1.1.2. If anyone has any final comments, please
let me know ASAP.

How to get the returned value from Functions with Callable statement?

Inserting a 'null' value in an IF THEN ELSE statement

Greetings,
I'm using Business Object webi XiR3
I'd like to return a 'null' value in certain cases for an IF THEN ELSE statement. Depending on if I format the field as a text or a number, I can return blanks ("") and zeros (0). However, what I really need to do is leave the field / column formatted as a number and return a 'null' value. You can see the variable below ... this will return a blank but the column is text.
Suggestions?
thanks.
variable:
=If([Comp Rate Mid] = 0 And( ([Market Rate 50th].085) - [Annual Total Targeted Comp] >=0) ; ([Market Rate 50th]0.85) - [Annual Total Targeted Comp]; If([Comp Rate Mid] <> 0 And( ([Comp Rate Mid] 0.85) - [Annual Total Targeted Comp] >=0) ; ([Comp Rate Mid]0.85) - [Annual Total Targeted Comp];""))

I don't think this is possible using a formula, as formulas deal with content, and images can be placed in cells only as 'image fill', which is Format, rather than Content.
Might be possible using an AppleScript, but I'm not the person to advise you on that.

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Re: using begin childName Display method

Steve,
It sounds like you have your display fields in a container view, and
that container view is inside of a view bean. I haven't tested whether
the fireChildDisplayEvents has a "deep" effect on its container view
children. Meaning that you may have to set fireChildDisplayEvents="true"
for the <jato:containerView> tag instead. If all else fails and you need
to just get it working, you can set the fireDisplayEvents="true" for
each display field tag separately.

I want to be able to conditionally show/hide data as well as

provide the hooks to do this, but I have been unsuccessful in

I

what
was happening. The displayMethodMap was returning null for the

anything I am missing or is there some working example of this?

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Sorting a resultset

Steve,
Todd will probably address this more, but to set the stage for the discussion,
I will chime in. As per your scenario "say a user wants to resort the results
by some other column" , I think there needs to be some clarification on the
life cycle of the model. You scenario implies that the user sees the data and
then submits a request to sort the data. This implies that the access to the
same data is spread across two HTTP requests.
Unless explicitly or implicitly stored in session, the Model is a per request
object. Therefore, under ordinary circumstances a new instance of Model is
constructed per request and populated as needed. This is done for scalability
reasons. Most applications would not scale properly if all model instances were
kept around in session per user. There is also the issue of data integrity, a
model stored in session may not reflect the current state of the RDBMS from
which the data was previously retrieved, perhaps minutes before. So, the
default action is to instantiate a new model and repopulate that model The
normal solution would be to apply the sort criteria to the data retrieval at
that point.
What I described above is the norm and the default.
If you have compelling reasons to prefer a single retrieval style, you have to
be prepared to store the Model data in session. There are several methods
within the ModelManager class which assist in this regard. You can see them
described in the java doc.
Also bear in mind that the SQLModelBase typically copies the data from the JDBC
result set into JATO specific local storage. This is done because the JDBC
result set is not as flexible as developer needs and requires the JDBC
connection to remain open while it is used.
I suspect that Todd will describe how you can manipulate the underlying JATO
specific local storage to change the order. I just wanted to make sure you
understood the life cycle issues involved and had justification for deviating
from the default.
Also, I'm still waiting for followup on the defaultCommandChild issue - we'd
like to fix it for JATO 1.2.1 if it is a problem and so far your case is the
only one we have heard of.

Subject: [iPlanet-JATO] Sorting a resultset
If I want to sort a result set (Model) after the search has taken
place (say a user wants to resort the results by some other column),
can this be done without issuing another query? The reason I ask is
that the next() method in the ResultSetModelBase calls synchronizeRow
(), which resets the row, which sounds like a sort done outside of
the SQL would be reverted.

Alex,
In addition to Todd saying that the ND security object "is nothing morethan a
sessionable object...", remember that the security object did nothing morethan
retrieve the user profile from some persistent store: a database or athird party
API. So the security object was just a very specialized model (a dataobject in ND
terms, of course), although it need not be a model, it could just be anarbitrary
Java class, whatever works best.
Once the security object was triggered to perform a user profile lookup,the
profile was stored in an instance of CSpUserProfile and kept in the user's
session. The project object was then the object that was responsible forchecking
the user profile for privileges, previous pages, and db logins and such.As Todd
explained, the ViewBean API now does the security check (as opposed toJATO's
module servlet, or ND's project object), so extending ViewBeanBase andoverriding
securityCheck is a convenient way to mimic ND's security hooks. You couldeven
override a method or event in the module servlet to do a lookup if youwant a
greater parallel to ND, but this is unneccessary. Either way, the securitycheck
is performed before the "page" is "loaded".

We're still on the fence. We want to add it, but feel it'll take a fair
bit
of design to do properly and extensibly.
However, realize that the ND security object is nothing more than a
sessionable object with slots for username, password, and priveleges.This
is almost trivially easy to replicate on your own, with a small additionof
code to automatically handle lifecycle and security checking. It wouldbe
extremely easy to create a subclass of ViewBeanBase that would overridethe
securityCheck() method to check the state of a sessioned "user profile"
object. Add to the ViewBean a declared set of "privelege" strings, andyou
can check the profile object against those required.
I feel I'm being unclear--do you see where I'm going?

Hi,
We used a lot of "security object" in netD projects. Each used
username, password and privilege for login. After migration,
we have to hand code all login codes manually. Session control
is pretty standard in j2ee, i'm wondering whether there is a
best practice example available for netD login feature.
Since security was one of the outstanding feature in netD, it will
be a great idea to have a stadard plugin to support this feature
after migration. I wish v1.2 could supply a direction, although
there are several login methods in j2ee.

The iMT has a ND to JATO/J2EE mapping document that covers ND
events and
common ND class/variable/method mapping.
To answer you two questions below:
onSessionTimoutEvent is onSessionTimeout in JATO and can beoverriden in
any class the subclasses JATO'scom.iplanet.jato.ApplicationServletBase.
Typically, this is done in you application servlet class which allof
your module servlets in the application will subclass.
onSecurityCheckFailedEvent is an ND specific event that istriggered
when a Security exception is thrown in ND. In JATO, a
SecurityCheckException is thrown when the default securitychecking in
JATO fails. JATO's default security is to make sure theRequestContext
object is not null. This is done in the ViewBean API. The
onSecurityCheck event in JATO allows you to hook into thisbehavior and
write your own security checking, or hook in a third party API.You can
call super so that you still get the RequextContext null check.
You should create a "non-visual" ViewBean (behavior only) thatoverrides
the onSecurityCheck event, and all other ViewBeans in yourapplication
extend it to inherit this security checking behavior.
You could also hook in the security in your application Servlet by
overriding one of the events in ApplicationServletBase, like
onBeforeRequest.

I'm sure the tiled

simple concept, isn't it?
Not to mention a necessary one. I didn't have time to debug my code and find

He may also be binding the models, howerver, he needs to change the way

Your null value issue is a completely different issue and has nothing to
do with it being a tiled view. I don't want anyone getting the idea
that the tiledView binding is broken. It does work. You issue should
have something to do with the inconsistent way in which you are getting

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Data model(Dataobject in Nd5)

Sn,
Computed columns need special attention.
The migration tool creates a QueryFieldSchema for each Model (DataObject).
The schema is populated with entries for each of the "data fields" needed by
that query. For example:
FIELD_SCHEMA.addFieldDescriptor(
new QueryFieldDescriptor(
FIELD_NDNWORDERS_ORDERID,
COLUMN_NDNWORDERS_ORDERID,
QUALIFIED_COLUMN_NDNWORDERS_ORDERID,
Integer.class,
false,
false,
QueryFieldDescriptor.APPLICATION_INSERT_VALUE_SOURCE,
QueryFieldDescriptor.ON_EMPTY_VALUE_EXCLUDE,
The query field descriptor describes the "metadata" for a given field:
QueryFieldDescriptor(java.lang.String logicalName, java.lang.String
columnName, java.lang.String qualifiedColumnName, java.lang.Class
fieldClass, boolean isKey, boolean isComputedField, int insertValueSource,
java.lang.String insertFormula, int onEmptyValuePolicy, java.lang.String
emptyFormula)
There is also a SQL Template generated for select statements:
static final String SELECT_SQL_TEMPLATE="SELECT ALL ndnwOrders.OrderID,
ndnwOrders.CustomerID, ndnwOrders.EmployeeID, ndnwOrders.OrderDate,
ndnwOrders.RequiredDate, ndnwOrders.ShippedDate, ndnwOrders.ShipVia,
ndnwOrders.Freight, ndnwOrders.ShipName, ndnwOrders.ShipAddress,
ndnwOrders.ShipCity, ndnwOrders.ShipRegion, ndnwOrders.ShipPostalCode,
ndnwOrders.ShipCountry FROM ndnwOrders __WHERE__ ";
public
So for computed columns you need to do two things:
1. You need to adjust the SELECT_SQL_TEMPLATE to reflect your computed
column instead of the "simplistic" column name that appears there by
default.
2. You have to "alias" that column and provide the value of the alias in the
columnName position of the QueryFieldDescriptor. This is needed so that the
model will be able to dereference the computed column in the result set.

Here's another try at explaining:
In my JSP I have;
<IMG SRC="/images/ef.gif" ALT=People Banner">
My application is in webapps/EformsAppWar
(jsps in EformsAppWar/EformsApp/eforms/*.jsp)
(classes in EformsAppWar/WEB-INF/classes)
so images are in webapps/EformsAppWar/images
and there is, indeed a ef.gif there.
However with no server.xml changes (everything default), Tomcat 3.2
gives a 404 in his log and states in the 404 message that context is
null (CTX < >) and ca't find /images/ef.gif + NULL.
By the way I just noticed that in Tomcat 3.1 I have the images directory

Then in your jsp...use the following reference:

I place images in that directory structure but still take 404's and in
the log it refers to context as /images ????
I'm probably doing something (or not doing something) foolish. Anybody> have a remedy.

First of all David you are faster responding to email than I am. Thanks.
We tried your scheme with no luck. You are using "ROOT" as your war file
name ROOT, correct? Are you sure the jsp would reference
"/images/MyProject/nppnback.gif"? Why is "MyProject" in there? Where is
the directory "images" defined to Tomcat? Is it a default?
Here's another try at explaining:
In my JSP I have;
<IMG SRC="/images/ef.gif" ALT=People Banner">
My application is in webapps/EformsAppWar
(jsps in EformsAppWar/EformsApp/eforms/*.jsp)
(classes in EformsAppWar/WEB-INF/classes)
so images are in webapps/EformsAppWar/images
and there is, indeed a ef.gif there.
However with no server.xml changes (everything default), Tomcat 3.2
gives a 404 in his log and states in the 404 message that context is
null (CTX < >) and ca't find /images/ef.gif + NULL.
By the way I just noticed that in Tomcat 3.1 I have the images directory
directly under webapps.

This works:
If the doc root is webapps\ROOT --
Using defaults...jsp's would be put in
webapps\ROOT\MyProjectApp\MyProject\*.jsp
and images would be put in webapps\ROOT\images\*.gif
Then in your jsp...use the following reference:
"/images/MyProject/nppnback.gif">
That will work just using defaults and not playing with any of the
config files...
ie. webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF gets updated as well (with required
classes).

I have put the images directory almost everyplace possible with no luck.
I have explicitly defined docBase in tomcat/conf/server.xml and still no
luck.
I currently have the following in conf/server.xml
<Context path="/EformsAppWar"

RE: [iPlanet-JATO] Parse error in JSP parser in IAS6

Hi Todd,
removing the defaultValue="" attribute works.
I have not got around to testing the SP3.
BTW. The reason the default value tag was added was to stop Null pointer
exceptions being thrown in the
HrefTag.beginDisplay().
buffer.append("?")
.append(field.getQualifiedName()) // "FooHref"
.append("=")
.append(URLEncoder.encode(value.toString())); // "/foo"
If you don't explicitly add a defaultValue="" to the jsp HREF tag ,
HrefTag.getDefaultValue() returns null.
Our hack was to add the following in HrefTag.java.
if (value==null)
value=getDefaultValue();
//===========================
//IP6 ADDED THE FOLLOWING LINE
value = (value== null? "":value);
//============================
Is that pheasible work-around ? This eliminates the need to add
defaultValue="" to all HREF tags.
Also, I might as well point another behavior that we encountered with HREFS.
In ND, if a HREF's display Field was bound to a column in DataObject and the
particular record had no value, no URL would be rendered on the page.
The HTML would look something like this( from memory ):
<A
HREF="../AppName/PgMsgMain.hrfSubject_onWebEvent(hrfSubject).994226335140? +
ND URL STUFF"></A>
In JATO by default a url get displayed with "null" as the link. ie.
<a href="../AppName/PgMsgMain?PgMsgMain.hrfSubject= + URL STUFF">null</a>
Our hack was modify the HrefTag.doEndTag method to not append "null" to the
buffer.
if (displayed)
buffer.append(getBodyContent().getString().equals("null")? "":
getBodyContent().getString()))
// IP6 HACK buffer.append(getBodyContent().getString())
.append("</a>");
writeOutput(fireEndDisplayEvent(buffer.toString()));
Is there a better way to do this?
thanks
Kostas

Hey Kostas--
I personally haven't seen this kind of error. Have you tried simplifying
the expression inside the href tag? For example:
<% Object foo =
viewBean.getRptAssignmentMatch().getvwAssignmentMatchModel().getValue(
vwAssignmentMatchModel.FIELD_ASSIGNMENT_ASSIGNMENT_ID);
%>
<jato:href name="hrefASSIGNMENT_ASSIGNMENT_ID" fireDisplayEvents="true">
<%= foo %>
</jato:href>
Also, is there a different version you could upgrade to? iAS SP3 includes
the Jasper compiler from Tomcat, which should behave quite differently.

It seems the JSP parser has a problem with the following type of HREFtags.
