Struts::WAP ... sorta

[Anthony Martin <An...@TRAMS.com>]

I got WAP to work using Struts.  I couldn't find any WML taglibs, so I just
use HTML comments so I could still benefited from the standard tags like
<bean:write> and <bean:message>.  Example:

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/vnd.wap.wml"
%><%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean"
%><%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html"
%><%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld" prefix="logic"
%><?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//PHONE.COM//DTD WML 1.1//EN"
          "http://www.phone.com/dtd/wml11.dtd">

<wml>
 <!--<html:html locale="true">-->
 <!--<html:form action="/listProfile">-->
 <card id="filter" title="filter">
  <p mode="nowrap">
  Matched: <bean:write name="listProfileForm" property="max" />
  .
  . other cool stuff here
  .
  </p>
 </card>
 <!--</html:form>-->
 <!--</html:html>-->
</wml>

Hope this is helpful to someone, and maybe someone else has a tip/gotcha for
me.

Anthony,

I have just completed an hdml interface to my already existing j2ee/struts based
application. It turned out to be very successful in how it works with the struts
controller architecture. It ended up being an additional webapp that I added to 
provide an interface to my ejb backend. The action classes that I wrote for the 
hdml jsps worked with the same data strutures that I had in place for my html 
front end.

The majority of the work was writing hdml ui tags to wrapper most of the hdml 
tags (choice, entry, ce etc.) I had to use these when they were dependent on 
dynamic content. They generally pulled values out of beans stored in the 
request/session. These tags complimented the logic and bean tags that struts 
provides. You could see them as being hdml equivalent of the struts html tags. 

Right now I am putting together an example hdml/struts app that demonstrates 
what I have put together with the goal of producing a white paper. The tags I 
have need more work to make them more reusable.

Re: Can not read i18n properties file

Pau, I did a similar test for a chinese version with
resource_zh.properties. If I change my browser
language preferences (in IE), I do get the chinese
version, although to display it correctly, I needed to
select chinese encoding in IE's view menu. My guess is
that the response header is not setting the
"Content-language" header or the charset header, but I
haven't looked into it.

Can not read i18n properties file

[Sean Pau <se...@yahoo.com>]

I test creating resource properties file for Japanese language. I use
Windows Notepad and edit resources_ja.properties and save it under UTF-8 and
Unicode format. Struts could display when the file is in UTF-8 format but
the text came out rubbish. When the file is in Unicode format, Struts is not
reading it, instead it reads the default resources.properties file. Both
UTF-8 and Unicode format resources_ja.properties files display the Japanese
text OK when I drag it into IE and also WordPad. Pls help. Thanks
