Page data forwarding
Hi All,
I have a Search.page for looking up a user from a db, the result is a
List of User Objects that I want to display in another page called
SearchResults,page.
After calling the search method on the Search page I forward to the
results page as:
String nextPageName =
getNamespace().constructQualifiedName("SearchResult");
IPage page = cycle.getPage(nextPageName);
cycle.activate(page);
I cant seem to do this, I get a ClassCastException:
SearchResult page = (SearchResult)cycle.getPage(nextPageName);
page.setUsers(result);
So I set the List of users in the Visit object before forwarding. The
SearchResult.page specification calls a getUsers method that has to be
defined on the Search.page java page class.
Is this the correct way to achieve the goal of displaying a list of
users found during search?
Thanks
S

I don't see what's wrong with your code, but you definitely don't need
the Visit object to pass information between two pages.
What is the actual class returned by getPage()?
Try something like System.out.println(cycle.getPage(nextPageName).getClass());

Say you have the following pages:
SimpleSearch.page SimpleSearchPage.java
ComplexSearch.page ComplexSearchPage.java
SearchResult.page SearchResultPage.java
SimpleSearchPage would contain:
public void submitAction(IRequestCycle cycle) {
// the next page we want to go to is the SearchResult page
SearchResultPage next_page = (SearchResultPage)cycle.getPage("SearchResult");
next_page.setResult(result);
cycle.activate(next_page);
}
Hope that clears it up.

So we call cycle.getPage("Search"); with the "SEARCH" page name where
the user entered his search criteria and not the "SEARCHRESULT" page
name?
And I dont need to use the Visit object to carry the data?
And you guessed correctly, I will have multiple search pages and a
single results page. But I was trying to call say a simpleSearch,
complexSearch method on the SearchPage class and forward the reusults
to the Results page.

I tend to do my search and result functionality on one page. Then the user can keep on resubmitting and refining the search without page hopping. But if you want it on two pages you would need something like this:
// SearchPage is the Java Class and Search is the Tapestry Page Name
SearchPage next_page = (SearchPage)cycle.getPage("Search");
next_page.setUsers(result);
cycle.activate(next_page);
You can also throw in a:
next_page.setCallback(new PageCallback(this));
before the activate. Then in the Result page add a cancel button that does something like:
protected void Cancel(IRequestCycle cycle) {
getCallback().performCallback(cycle); // might want to check for a null here
}
Then they would go back to the search page where they came from (i.e. if you had a bunch of search pages going to one result page).
