how to defrost the Configuration

[Shankar Narayana]

Hi all,

I am trying to chance the scope of the ActionMappping in the action class and then I encounter this error.

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Configuration is frozen
        at org.apache.struts.config.ActionConfig.setScope(ActionConfig.java:496)
 
        at com.dcs.presentation.action.SalesManagerAction.adminProcess(SalesMana
gerAction.java:348)
        at com.dcs.presentation.action.DCSAction.execute(DCSAction.java:71)
        at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processActionPerform(Reques
tProcessor.java:484)
        at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.ja
va:274)
        at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:148
2)
        at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doPost(ActionServlet.java:525)
 

how do i get about this error, is there any other way of changing the scope in the action class.


Thanks,
Shankar

Hi shankar

See i will tellu one thing...the struts-conifg.xml is static mean u cant change the contents of that file in anyway like changing the scope,paramwter,input.......u cant do this through ur java code........bcoz once the config file is loaded on the startup the ActionConfig will set a flag and if u try using setScope it chekcs for that flag and will throw error
..........but u may have aone doubt then whats the purpose of providing that setMethod thast because the parser will use that set method to parse the config file
