ValidatorTool: getDynamicJavascript does not produce output
Hi
I am using the Velocity ValidatorTool to do client side javascript
validation for my Struts application.
I have placed calls to $validator.getStaticJavascript() and
getDynamicJavascript() in my .vm template. For example
$validator.getDynamicJavascript("${formName}")
The static call works (produces a <script> block) but the dynamic one
doesn't produce anything.
I am using these jars:
velocity-tools-1.1.jar (contains ValidatorTool.class, dated 17 May 2004)
velocity-1.4.jar
velocity-dep-1.3.1.jar
Many thanks if you can help
James
p.s. content generated by static call is this:
<script type="text/javascript" language="Javascript1.1">
<!-- Begin
/*$RCSfile: validateFloatRange.js,v $ $Revision: 1.9 $ $Date: 2004/03/28 16:53:21 $ */
/**
* Check to see if fields are in a valid float range.
* Fields are not checked if they are disabled.
* <p>
* @param form The form validation is taking place on.
*/
function validateFloatRange(form) {
---- massive snipping ------
if (fields.length > 0) {
focusField.focus();
alert(fields.join('\n'));
}
return isValid;
}
//End -->
</script>

I am actively and successfully using Struts 1.2.x with VelocityTools 1.2dev
and Velocity 1.4.
Admittedly I haven't been using the ValidatorTool (only use server side
validation) but I still took some time to upgrade it so it should work fine
for Struts 1.2.x now (the app5 velstruts example has been upgraded to
showcase the latest version).

if you could find the time, that'd be great. i'm fairly swamped
myself, but i'm slowly trying to bring things around for release of
VelocityTools 1.2. Right now my biggest concern is the
up-to-date-ness of the VelocityStruts tools, because i haven't been
able to use them actively myself. so *any* help, however small, in
preparing and double-checking that those are up to speed with Struts
1.2.4 would be greatly appreciated!

AFAIR, it was the _only_ way to get things working :)
I did some minor modifications to the -tools source while going my way. As
soon as I get to breathe (as I'm really swamped now), I'll check if they are
worth anything for the community and if so, I'll make sure to post back.
Must say that using Velocity instead JSP for rendering is _so_cool_ that I
would never go back. Thanks!

Thanks for the report. Nice to hear word from the street that
tools-1.2 is doing fine. I've aways wondered how good it was with the
new Struts.

Florin
Thanks for your prompt suggestions.
1.
<form-bean name="userWizardForm"
type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorActionForm">
<form-property name="userId" type="java.lang.Integer"/>
I've noticed that I am using DynaValidatorActionForm - might that make a
difference?
2.
<action path="/user/wizard/core"
type="com.sky.skynet.web.ModeAction"
name="userWizardForm" scope="session" validate="false">
<forward name="insert" path=".user.insert.form"/>
<forward name="update" path=".user.update.form"/>
</action>
<action path="/user/wizard/summary"
type="com.sky.skynet.web.ModeAction"
name="userWizardForm" scope="session" validate="true"
input="/do/user/wizard/core">
<forward name="insert"
path=".user.insert.summary"/>
<forward name="update"
path=".user.update.summary"/>
</action>
<form name="/user/wizard/summary">
<field property="loginName" depends="required">
<msg name="required" key="errorsRequired"/>
<arg0 key="loginName"/>
</field>
....etc
3. Think so :) see 4.
4. Yes, validation works as expected server side
I am using Struts 1.2.4. I will download the velocity-tools-1.2 package
and compile and see what happens.

1. Do you have an ActionForm for the action that ends up being rendered by
Velocity?
2. Does this form have a section in the Struts validation definition files?
3. Is validation setup OK (i.e. in Struts files)?
4. Does validation work server-side?
AFAIR, no. 2 is most likely the culprit.
You also may want to check if your Struts is 1.2.x. If so, you'd be better
off using the (afaik not released yet) velocity-tools-1.2. Get the latest
sources, compile and use. It's really stable (at least that's what I
currently use).
