substitute for DynaActionForm in struts2

[Deeps Mistry]

Hi,

We have DynaActionForm in struts 1.1, is there a similar thing in struts 2?


Thanks.

No, but you can use a map.

Hey..
what i want to do is this:
1) I have 4 columns(textfields) in a row. I want to create 10 such rows.
In struts1.1 i had used dynamic actionform to create 10 rows.

But in struts2 there is no DynaActionForm, so i created a list with 10 form beans and iterated it in my jsp.
But how do i access the data of all the rows. Right now i am able to fetch only the first row since i am not able to generate dynamic id for every row generated.

actionclass:

package ActionClass;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;

import ActionForm.PurchaseOrder;

import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionContext;
import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionSupport;

import dao.CustomerService;

public class DisplayPOFormAction extends ActionSupport {
	
	public String execute() throws Exception {

		return SUCCESS;
	
		}
	
	private List lstPurchaseOrders;
	
	public List getLstPurchaseOrders() {
		return lstPurchaseOrders;
	}

	public void setLstPurchaseOrders(List lstPurchaseOrders) {
		this.lstPurchaseOrders = lstPurchaseOrders;
	}
	
public String displayPO() throws Exception {
	
	System.out.println("in po");	
	lstPurchaseOrders = new ArrayList<PurchaseOrder> ();
	for(int i = 0;i<10;i++)
	{
		PurchaseOrder pobean = new PurchaseOrder();
		lstPurchaseOrders.add(pobean);
	}
	
	setLstPurchaseOrders(lstPurchaseOrders);
	return execute();
	}

}
    

jsp:

 <table>
<% int i = 1; %>
	<s:iterator id="lstPurchaseOrders" value="lstPurchaseOrders" status="stat">
	
		 <tr>
			  <td ><s:textfield name="lstPurchaseOrders" value="" id="%{lstPurchaseOrders[#stat.index]}.pod" /></td>
			  <td ><s:textfield name="lstPurchaseOrders" value="" id=""/></td>
		 </tr>
	 <% i++; %>
	</s:iterator>
	<s:submit onclick="submitForm();"></s:submit>
	
		   

generated client side code:

 <table>

	
	
		 <tr>
			  <td ><div id="[e-mail]" class="wwgrp">
<div id="[e-mail]" class="wwctrl">
<input type="text" name="lstPurchaseOrders" value="" tabindex="1" [color=orange]id="[e-mail][/color]"/></div> </div>
</td>
			  <td ><div id="wwgrp_ActionForm.PurchaseOrder@688954" class="wwgrp">
<div id="wwctrl_ActionForm.PurchaseOrder@688954" class="wwctrl">
<input type="text" name="lstPurchaseOrders" value="" id="ActionForm.PurchaseOrder@688954"/></div> </div>
</td>
		 </tr>

		 <tr>
			  <td ><div id="[e-mail]" class="wwgrp">
<div id="[e-mail]" class="wwctrl">
<input type="text" name="lstPurchaseOrders" value="" tabindex="1" [b]id="[e-mail][/b]"/></div> </div>
</td>
			  <td ><div id="wwgrp_ActionForm.PurchaseOrder@100aff5" class="wwgrp">
<div id="wwctrl_ActionForm.PurchaseOrder@100aff5" class="wwctrl">
<input type="text" name="lstPurchaseOrders" value="" id="ActionForm.PurchaseOrder@100aff5"/></div> </div>
</td>
 </tr> 
.
