Displaying response messages after some action executed

[Nandish Sri]

After adding/updating any value in DB, I want to display the same message like "Updated Successfully" in an alert box or a dialog page. I am using Struts2, Tiles and Hibernate.
I want a generic jsp page which can accept a message. This message will be passed by other pages like add.jsp or update.jsp using String return values.
How I can do this ?
I implemented this by using my own exception. Is it the right way ?
Please let me know how to do this.

Why you want to display it as a alert message? That is not a good way. Instead simply place a status_message variable in your jsp page under a div, so that it can display the message if exists, Otherwise it'll not.

Other method would be by handling you own exception handling. Whatever the status_message is, we need to display it to user, in laymen terms. Right?

Thanks for your response. Now I am handling using Like below..

MyException

  public class MyException extends Exception {
	public MyException()
	{
		super();
		
	}
	public MyException(String message)
	{
		super(message);
	}
	
}  

Struts.xml

  	<global-results>
			<result name="myException" type="tiles">myException</result>
			<result name="displayMessage" type="tiles">displayMessage</result>
		</global-results>
<global-exception-mappings>
			<exception-mapping exception="kbs.cable.MyException"  result="displayMessage" />
		</global-exception-mappings>

  

DAO Code

 public void updateCardInfo(CustInfoVO custInfo) throws Exception
    {
        Session session = Util.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession();
        Transaction tx=null;
        try
        {
            tx = session.beginTransaction();
            session.saveOrUpdate(custInfo);
            tx.commit();
            throw new MyException("Details Updated Successfully");
        }
        catch (RuntimeException e)
        {
            if(custInfo != null) tx.rollback();
            throw e;
        }
       
    }   

Like above I am passing message. Is it the right way ?

Can you please let me know how will you set status_message in jsp from DAO. Using same getter/setter from a bean ?
