Had to back away from 1.1 beta 2 to 1.1 beta 1
I was forced by my team to back out of beta 2 back to beta 1 today. Various weirdness, but one problem I pinpointed in a previous posting I will repost here. Sorry for the repetition, but my last post is past its 2 day, no answer, expiration date ;)
Problem as posted previously:
----------------
I just converted from 1.1 b1 to 1.1 b2 and encountered this problem.
We have several tags that we coded to live nested within the struts form tag. They do a getParent, check for instanceof FormTag and do a getName(). This use to work fine. With 1.1 b2, the FormTag.getName() method started returning null. When checked in the debugger, the name property on FormTag was indeed null. This is occurring on jsp's where the FormTag attribute is not beoing explicitly set. The docs indicate that the name and object type will be pulled from the struts-config. This does not appear to be the case for the name property/attribute.
Any ideas?
TIA,
Bill Pfeiffer
-----------------
Failing code:
public static String getParentFormName(TagSupport tag)
{
String retval = null;
// find the parent tag that is a struts form
Tag parentFormTag = null;
try
{
parentFormTag = TagSupport.findAncestorWithClass(tag, Class.forName("org.apache.struts.taglib.html.FormTag"));
}
catch (ClassNotFoundException e)
{
cat.error("FormTag not found", e);
}
// if found
if (parentFormTag != null)
{
// get the form name
retval = ((FormTag) parentFormTag).getName();
}
return retval;
}

This use to work fine. With 1.1 b2, the FormTag.getName() method started
returning null. When checked in the debugger, the name property on FormTag
was indeed null. This is occurring on jsp's where the FormTag attribute is
not beoing explicitly set. The docs indicate that the name and object type
will be pulled from the struts-config. This does not appear to be the case
for the name property/attribute.
