Dispatch Action Strangeness
Hi there
I thought I'd break this into its own thread. I'm trying to implement
a DispatchAction as discussed by Ted Husted here -->
http://husted.com/struts/tips/002.html
I have done the following
1. changed the html:submit to the following (along with the necassary
javascript)
<html:submit property="runGraphFlag" onclick="set('graph');">Run
Graph</html:submit>
2. Created a "graph" method on the Action class with the same
signature at the execute() on the action
however the graph method isn't getting called.
My Action class still extends "Action" should it inherit
DispatchAction instead? What am I missing?

Are you overriding execute() in either your Action or BaseAction?

All of it? What Hubert is asking is whether or not you override the
execute method of the DispatchAction subclass, as that could easily
munge up the dispatching. That's certainly among my top questions as well.
Generally the relevent portions of the struts-config and Action (in your
case, the base Action as well) are usually enough.
Better too much information than too little, especially if you have a
site you can put it on rather than sending it all to the entire list.

Does it have an execute() method? If so, what does the execute method do?

the BaseAction has
import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;
private Log log;
and a constructor that initialized the log object so I can perform
logging in all my actions.
In addition it has a checkAuth() method that makes sure the user is
logged in properly.

One part I missed was when you said your base action is extending
DispatchAction. What is it that your base action is doing? It could
be conflicting with the dispatch logic.

What does the code for your base action (that subclasses DispatchAction)
look like? I've never had any issues with DispatchAction or its
subclasses, so I'm a little confused as to why it wouldn't work.
You probably already posted all of it, but the relevent snippets from
struts-config, the JSP, the base action, and the action might be handy
again :)

You've confirm that you've changed the action-mapping so that it is now
using your new dispatch action? If that's correct, then I'd say you need
to break at DispatchAction.execute() and step through it to see what's
going on.

IIRC you wanted the "graph" method to be called because you had
"set('graph')" in an onclick handler. What does the "set('graph')"
method do? Does it modify the "dispatch" form field?

Any further insights on this? It seems I'm missing something simple here...
I dont want ot have to manually call methods on my action...
help? :)
Is there something beyond the
<html:hidden property="dispatch" value="error"/>
that I need (and the hidden field named "dispatch")
and of course to have my Action inherit from
org.apache.struts.actions.DispatchAction (actually my BaseAction
inherits from it... that wouldnt make a diffference though correct?

in my HTML I have
<html:hidden property="dispatch" value="error"/>
in my struts config (for the appropriate action) I have
parameter="dispatch"
Is there something else I need?

You sure you have the parameter property in your action mapping in your
struts config?
"set('graph'); I'm assuming is setting a hidden parameter (your dispatch
parameter)... whatever that parameter is, is the one you need also
defined in your action mapping.

I saw that after I sent it. I have changed it to inherit from
org.apache.struts.actions.DispatchAction (actually my BaseAction
inherits from DispatchAction) but the methods still arent being
called.
strange right?
