session.setAttribute(Constants.USER_KEY, form); "Constants" not reolving

[bhavit pant]

hello ranchers,

package com.action;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpSession;
import java.util.Map;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import org.apache.struts.action.Action;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForward;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;




import com.form.LoginForm;


public class LoginFormAction  extends Action {
	@Override
	public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
			HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
			throws Exception {
//		System.out.println(form);
		String uid;
	  
		LoginForm tForm = (LoginForm) form;
		com.Dao.loginDao  loginDAO =  new com.Dao.loginDao();
		if(loginDAO.createConnection(uid=tForm.getUsername(),tForm.getpassword()))
		{   HttpSession session = (HttpSession) request.getSession(false);
		    session.setAttribute(Constants.USER_KEY, form);
		    
		    		
		return mapping.findForward("success");
		}

		else
			return (new ActionForward (mapping.getInput()));

				
	}
		  
}
	
	
 

in the above code constant is not resolving, which class do i have to import for this,
and one more thing rather then setting user session attributes in this way can i set it in this way session.setAttribute("username", uid);

you have to create it yourself, or get it from wherever you got this example code.
