Interceptors in Struts2

[Naga Niranjan]

Hi,

I want to set an attribute in an interceptor with the scope of request to access that in JSP. The follwing code I have used, but that attribute is not getting in JSP.

Interceptor code:

HttpServletRequest request = ServletActionContext.getRequest();
request.setAttribute("permissionsList", permissionsList);

In the above code permissionsList is fetching from a Map, which is in application scope.

JSP code:

<s:iterator value="#request.permissionsList">
</s:iterator>

Expecting suggestions in this regard.

Should work, but without the rest of the interceptor code it's hard to say. Is it available in an action?

[Naga Niranjan]

It is not available in Action class. The remaining code in that interceptor is checking the session whether it is active or not.
To overcome this problem, temporarly I have used scriplet in JSP as I cannot find any solution yet.

Like I said, should work, but without interceptor code and your configuration I can't really help.

This is *never* appropriate for a scriptlet, though; better to use a Preparable action and get it to the JSP in the action.

(The JSP page is hit through an action, right?)
