Technical Objectives for this exercise:
The technical objectives of this exercise is to learn ?how to?:
1) Use Struts and Tiles
a) Add TilesRequestProcessor to struts-config.xml
<controller processorClass="org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesRequestProcessor" />
b) Define the Tiles Plugin
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesPlugin" >
<set-property property="definitions-config" value="/WEB-INF/tiles-defs.xml" />
<set-property property="moduleAware" value="true"/>
</plug-in>
c) Create an empty Tiles definition file tiles-defs.xml under /WEB-INF directory
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC
"-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 1.1//EN"
"http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/tiles-config_1_1.dtd">
<tiles-definitions>
</tiles-definitions>
d) Add the base definition to the tile definition xml
<definition name="base.definition" path="/Layout.jsp">
<put name="title" value=""/>
<put name="header" value="/common/header.jsp" />
<put name="footer" value="/common/footer.jsp" />
<put name="body" value="" />
</definition>
e) Create the definition for each of the three pages by extending the above definition and overriding
the empty values
f) Change the references to physical jsps in struts-config.xml and replace them with one of the above
names. For instance, change all references to
NOTE: There is no replacement for index.jsp. Let us keep it as is. Hence don?t change references to
index.jsp

/*
Technical Objectives for this exercise:
1. Create Struts ActionForm and Action
2. Understand the interaction between RequestProcessor, Action and ActionForm
3. Start development with CustomerForm.jsp & add tags and TLDs [Using basic Struts tags - html
4. Understand the basic elements of struts-config.xml
5. Create ActionForm fields for the JSP form fields
6. Implement the validate method in ActionForm
7. Create ActionMapping & associate the correct ActionForm and Action
8. Create the Action class & implement the execute method
9. Add ActionForward to the ActionMapping
10. Understand how to use Message Resource Bundle
11. Understand how to handle Form display, Form submission and validation
12. Look for constants in JSP (bean:message, srcKey, altKey etc.) to add them in Resource Bundle
13. Understand ForwardAction
14. Look for ActionError keys & add them to Resource Bundle
15. Build and deploy to WebLogic using the Build script provided and bean tags (totally 11 tags)]

Technical Objectives for this exercise:
The technical objectives of this exercise is to learn ?how to?:
1. A whole lot of patterns based code is added in this exercise. Hence no Struts related functionality
is added. Just the Search Functionality with Database is Implemented
2. Gof Patterns - Factory Method, Abstract Factory are implemented
3. Core J2EE Patterns - Business Delegate, Session Facade, Transfer Object, Data Access Object
are implemented
Observe how patterns are applied and the Search functionality is implemented. This steps are not
listed since they are not core to Struts usage that we want to illustrate. Time permitting, I will add
this section later. Let us move on to important coverage of Struts features in subsequent exercises.

1. Implement Paging
Technical Objectives for this exercise:
The technical objectives of this exercise is to learn how to implement Paging using Pager taglib
a. Start by adding pager taglib to web.xml and CustomerSearchList.jsp
<taglib>
<taglib-uri>/WEB-INF/pager-taglib.tld</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/pager-taglib.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/pager-taglib.tld" prefix="pg" %>
b. Use <pg:pager> body tag to cover the entire list display
<pg:pager url="customerlist.do" maxIndexPages="10" maxPageItems="5">
c. Use <pg:item> for each item iterated over
<pg:item>
</pg:item>
<c:forEach var="customer" items="${CUSTOMER_SUMMARY_OBJECTS}">
</c:forEach>
d. Add a new table containing <pg:index> block with the tags: <pg:prev>, <pg:pages>, <pg:next>

Business Objectives:
The following business objectives will be met at the end of this exercise:
1. Split customer form into multiple pages
2. Prevent the customer from going back and resubmitting and getting a database error.
3. Better Exception handling in the system
Technical Objectives for this exercise:
The technical objectives of this exercise is to learn how to:
19. To fix the bug: when Enter key is pressed in the Customer Search Form, a blank page is shown
20. Use DispatchAction
21. See how things work without exception handling mechanism
22. Provide exception handling mechanism (DuplicateCustomerException)
23. Create custom exception handlers
24. Provide Global exception handling mechanism with JSP
25. Create base ActionForm and Action Classes and use them
26. Create multipage forms. (Expln Only)
27. Handle Duplicate Form Submissions for CustomerForm (Expln Only)
28. Use DynaActionForm for CustomerSearchForm (Expln Only)
Default enter does not do search in Customer Search Form
2. Using DispatchAction
a. Create two methods Create and Edit (notice the case) in ShowCustomerAction so that each
method taking exactly the same input parameters as the execute method.
b. Add appropriate code into each of these methods
c. Comment (or delete) the execute method
1. When Enter key is pressed in the Customer Search Form, a blank page is shown
a. This happens because the CustomerSearchAction performs the search only if serch.x or search.y
are not null. Remove the if condition and it will work for enter key

Technical Objectives for this exercise:
The technical objectives of this exercise is to learn ?how to?:
Create Struts application modules and break monolithic struts module into pieces
NOTE:
1. For the sake of maintaining simplicity and clarity in rest of the exercise, we will not attempt to
2. The index page belongs to the default module. From the index page, we will provide a link to go
break the existing application into modules. Rather we will add a new module.
to module2. Module 2 will consist of a two dummy pages that can call each other and also have a
link to return to default module.
a) Change the web.xml to define a new module named xyz as follows:
<init-param>
<param-name>config/xyz</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config-xyz.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
b) Copy over the struts-config.xml to create a new struts-config-xyz.xml
c) Create a empty XYZ Message Resources
d) Clean up the struts-config-xyz.xml to retain only empty blocks for form-beans, action
mappings etc. Add the message resource bundle definition to struts-config-xyz.xml.
e) Add SwitchAction to struts-config.xml & struts-config-xyz.xml as follows:
<action path="/switch" type="org.apache.struts.actions.SwitchAction"/>
f) Create a folder called xyz under the src/web directory. Create two jsps: xyz-page1.jsp & xyzpage2.
jsp (Copy over index.jsp & change contents)

Technical Objectives for this exercise:
The technical objectives of this exercise is to learn ?how to?:
1) Use Commons Validator to validate ActionForm
a) We will add validations to CustomerSearchForm
b) The first thing while using Commons Validator is to extend the ActionForm from a predefined
ValidatorForm.
