[jira] Commented: (WW-2846) s:url Tag with parameters does not work or results in ClassCastException

["Nils-Helge Garli (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2846?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=44854#action_44854 ] 

Nils-Helge Garli commented on WW-2846:
--------------------------------------

I've managed to reproduce and understand the problem with the ClassCastException, which affects the first and third of your examples. The second example won't work unless you have an object on the stack with the property abc. If you try

 <s:url value="editGadget.action">
     <s:param name="id" value="'abc'" />
 </s:url> 

(notice the extra ' ' in the value)

which probably results in what you would expect.

So to summarize how I see the problem:

Nested params doesn't work with non-string values. But nested params with String values does work as expected.

A temporary workaround is to construct your non-portlet urls "by hand" or use some other tag library to create them.

> Using Example 1 from s:url Tag

> does not work in an PortletEnvironment. Only the url is generated.

>  <s:url value="editGadget.action">
>      <s:param name="id" value="40" />

> does not work. The param is in the Map, but its not a String, its an Integer - which results in a ClassCastException at:
>   String key = (String)it.next();
>   String val = (String)params.get(key);
> Portlet Spec mentions to use Servlet for resource streaming and other things you can't do with portlets.
> I need to generate servlet URLs containing parameters - but it seems i can't create them with struts.
> Using "includeParams=ALL" (which you may use to get extraparams included), does result in
> [Ljava.lang.String; cannot be cast to java.lang.String
> because PortletUrlHelper gots a method called: ensureParamsAreStringArrays which is called when constructing the surrounding form ...
> which does convert the entire map to hold string arrays - but than buildResourceUrl must fail everytime.
> Using get and %{ognlvaluexpr} it does work nearly, only the CCE is making things worse.
> The fault is 
>                 Object value = findValue(this.value);
>                 component.addParameter(name, value);
> in the param Tag. findValue does return actually an Integer instance which is put to the parameter Map.
> This should be converted to String before inserting it to the map.
> Besides this, using All the above things still apply.
