problem with forwardPattern and modules
hi,
i'm trying to configure the controller using
<controller forwardPattern="/$P" pagePattern="/$P"/>
so that it looks for jsp pages in the webroot folder, no matter if we are
inside a module or not.
but whatever i enter in the forwardPattern or pagePattern properties, no
changes in the behaviour.
went through the source code of 1.2.8, and in
RequestProcessort.internalModuleRelativeForward() i can see that this methd
doesn't take care of any patterns, just combines the module prefix with the
URI to get the new URI.
any ideas?
kr,
guenther

I don't have time _right now_ to investigate, but the way you describe
your experience with it, sounds like it's a bug. Creating a bugzilla
issue for it, or even just to get the "known limitation" notice on
Struts documentation, makes sure the issue doesn't get lost in mailing
list archives.

hi,
i'm really not sure if i should issue a bug, as it's just not implemented
yet. had some thoughts about how that could be implemented using
forwardPattern etc. but the problem is that this forwardPattern doesn't make
much sense at all if it is used for ALL forwards (and not only for those who
refer to a file/jsp; in the later case, how can the code distinguish between
a forward to a file or any other type of URI before calculating the correct
URI?).

Günther,
Can you file a Bugzilla issue for this?

RE: problem with forwardPattern and modules
Posted by Günther Wieser <gw...@creative-it.com>.
hi,
just for future reference (in case somebody searches for the same problem),
i found the "solution" in the README.txt for verson 1.2.8.
=================
KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
=================
The following items identify functionality areas that have not yet been
fully implemented or tested:
* Use of the "forwardPattern" or "pagePattern" attributes on the
<controller> element.
seems to me this feature has not been implemented yet....
i was able to solve this by using tiles for page layouting, cause tiles
doesn't use any module prefixes etc. but loads a jsp directly from the file
system (while a "forward" action in struts-config.xml sends the servlet
container the URI that is prefixed with the module path, and the container
loads the page/URI from filesystem).
kr,
guenther
