getting user selection from a object
Hi,
I've been stuck trying to capture, in my action, the set of elements placed in one of the lists of an <s:optiontransferselect> tag. I can refer to the selected element in the list by using the name of the list, but how do I access all of the elements in the list? (they were obtained by shifting items from the other list)
Thanks,
Session

There already is a bug related to this.
http://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-1972
I couldn't find it in nabble, but I believe this is a known bug that's
fixed in 2.1
In the couple places I have these controls I have this text:
"There's a bug in Struts2.0.8 that doesn't automatically select
everything in the left list before submitting. It'll be fixed in 2.1,
but in the meantime, please select everything in this left list before
submitting."
Which is fine for me, since I'm the only one using this as it's still in
development. Not a reasonable solution for something that currently
needs to work in production.

According to the documentation [1], the items in the list should get
selected automatically when the form is submitted -- i.e. the desired
behaviour / workaround is how the component is meant to work out of the
box. So, it sounds like a JIRA issue should be filed, but as a bug
report rather than a feature request.

Oh; I misunderstood what you wanted--sorry.
OTOH this is probably an enhancement that people might
want (kind of makes sense you'd want to be able to
retrieve all the items from the right-hand list); if
you're feeling saucy maybe add a feature request JIRA.

Actually, giving the lists a name and providing getters and setters just allows us to get the selected element within the respective list. I was able to find a suitable workaround by selecting all the elements in the list on an onclick event, then I can get everything that I want.

Give it an id (or name? I forget) and supply set/get
methods in the action?
Isn't it just two select boxes (for all intents and
purposes, at least regarding what you're doing)?

Expert struts programmers, please take a look at this thread. I believe it should be a straight forward answer, but I haven't received any replies since I launched the thread. I don't mean to pester you, but I'm really trying to get over this hurdle.

Anyone familiar with the way the <s:optiontransferselect> tag works? I'm looking to retrieve the content of the entire right-hand list (not just a selected item in it). I would assume that there's a way to do that, but I'm not sure how. Any ideas?
