Re: adding values to a variable inside iterator tag
Does anyone know how to calculate the total value by making use of the
<s:set> tag?

oh nevermind.
was experimenting and
<s:set name="calcTotalDebtAmt" value="%{#calcTotalDebtAmt+totalCount}"/>
works!

Re: adding values to a variable inside iterator tag
Posted by dusty <du...@yahoo.com>.
I think his point is that his view template is going to iterate these objects
anyways, he just did not include the additional layout html for the
resultsList. I don't think he was suggesting that getting a count by
looping is better done in JSP tags rather than the action class. I am sure
there is some form of branching logic that is also not shown otherwise he
would just use resultsList.size.

Maybe learning about the life cycle of even a simple tag will convince
you that doing unnecessary computation within the display layer is a
mistake:
http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.6/api/javax/servlet/jsp/tagext/Tag.html
Especially the more complex life cycles of more detailed tags (since
s:set can have a body, it's got to implement BodyTag, I believe) :
http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.6/api/javax/servlet/jsp/tagext/IterationTag.html
http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.6/api/javax/servlet/jsp/tagext/BodyTag.html
And since your summation actually did the work through OGNL, you also
add the parsing/evaluation computational expense each time through that
loop.

thanks for your advice.
"...optimizing out a for loop is not the best use of your time as a
developer."
I second that. But in this case why would I write another for loop to do
something that can be done in the for loop that I already have? Unless
there is an issue with doing this inside s:iterator tag, issues like code
readability or amount of time, I thought it would be better to not write a
method in my action class just for this.
Furthermore, I got to learn something about ognl :)

Re: adding values to a variable inside iterator tag
Posted by Jim Kiley <jh...@summa-tech.com>.
I will bet one dollar that the amount of time it takes to calculate this
value inside your Action class is less than or equal to the time it takes it
to calculate the value inside the iterator in your JSP. And it's a
vanishingly small amount compared to network latency. Unless you're writing
code that's going to be hammered at the requests-per-second scale,
optimizing out a for loop is not the best use of your time as a developer.
When you're doing initial development, optimize in favor of readability and
testability. Once you're in or close to production, analyze to find
bottlenecks. Finding the sum of a bunch of values is not going to be your
bottleneck.

Re: adding values to a variable inside iterator tag
Posted by Bhaarat Sharma <bh...@gmail.com>.
but if I do it in my action class then I am adding extra 'time'.
to begin with I anyways have to iterate over the list in my JSP. Just to
calculate total if I iterate over the list again in java code then I am
doing two iterations through the list. Just didnt seem very efficient for
my need.
Thanks for your suggestion!! :)

Re: adding values to a variable inside iterator tag
Posted by Jim Kiley <jh...@summa-tech.com>.
I don't know how Struts 2 tags work under the hood, but it's possible that
it's going out of scope because you declared it in the iterator, or it's
silently throwing an error because it isn't initialized. Before your
<s:iterator> starts, do <s:set name="calcTotalDebtAmt" value="0"/>.
This could be handled inside your action class with like two lines of code,
of course, and as a side benefit you could write meaningful unit tests to be
sure you'd gotten it right.

no :(
I tried the following
<s:iterator value="resultList" status="status">
<s:text name="number.format"><s:param value = "totalCount"/></s:text>
<s:set name="calcTotalDebtAmt"
value="%{calcTotalDebtAmt+totalCount}"/>
</s:iterator>
and tried to print it
<s:property value="#calcTotalDebtAmt"/>
but it shows nothing :(

Does it work if you replace the "+=" with a "+"?
