Hello,

I am developing an application with struts,hibernate and JSP.
I have an action class where I am using criteria to retrieve value from database.
I need to show that particular value in my JSP page.
Currently I am using the following : -

ActionClass

Criteria criteria=session.createCriteria(Product.class);
ProductForm prdForm=criteria.list(); (which returns only one record)
request.setAttribute("myObj", productForm);

My JSP page

<bean:write name="ProductForm" property="Id" />

Is this a correct way to displaye values in JSP using struts tags?


Thanks in Advance
Kashiwni

Hi Kashwini,

Firstly, when you are writing criteria.list(), collect it in a list instead of form object.

a. List<ProductForm> productFormList = criteria.list();

Going ahead if you are sure of receiving only one record, you can do a get(0) on the list as

b. ProductForm productForm = productFormList.get(0);

Next, you do not have to save it in session. On your JSP, you can directly iterate over productFormList (if you retrieve multiple rows), and display the values using <bean:write>, else directly use the form from line b. (if you are getting only one row), to display the values.

Hope this helps.

Thanks and Regards,

hi,


Thanks a lot for you solution.I will surely try this.
I was able to iterate over a list(when having multiple records) but I was not able to understand how will I proceed with a single record.


Thanks once again.




Regards,
Kashwini

Hello Komal,


I tried your solution, but I get a ClassCastException.

My code is as follows (Action class): -

Criteria criteria=session.createCriteria(Product.class);
List<ProductForm>productList=criteria.list();
and then,

ProductForm prodFormObj=productList.get(0);

gives me a ClassCastException as my criteria returns me list of objects of type Product(Which is my POJO)
how can I cast it to my form class object (ProductForm) ?

Further my Product class has instance variables which are objects of some other class.

Class Product{
private int productId;
private String productName;
private Part part;
}

how can I retrieve object of type Part from the list (or single record) returned by Criteria?




Thanks in Advance
Kashiwni

your bean should have getter and setter method / the variable should be public.

Hello,

Can anyone please suggest me (or explain me) a link having proper example of <bean-write>?
I searched for the net and got many different examples but none up to the mark.

<bean-write name="myForm" property="myProperty">

What should be myForm?
Name of my Form bean or object of my Form bean created in my Action Class


I am really not getting this.
It will be very helpful if someone helps me out of this.




Thanks in Advance
Kashwini

myForm would be the 'id' of the <jsp:useBean>. This is one of the ways, however in general 'name' specifies the attribute name of the bean whose property is accessed to retrieve the value specified by property (if specified). If property is not specified, the value of this bean itself will be rendered.

This link is the tag library for the same:
http://struts.apache.org/1.x/struts-taglib/tlddoc/bean/write.html

Also, if you want details about struts-bean, please refer : http://struts.apache.org/1.2.x/userGuide/struts-bean.html

Thanks and Regards,
