But I need (there is no other way, since the service API to be used is not written by me) an ActionEvent object (as it would be available in an actionPerformed method) to hand it over to some service object's method. Is there any way to hand an ActionEvent object over to the execute method or to get an ActionEvenzt object in some way within the execute method ? I am sure there is a way, since otherwise everybody who would need an ActionEvent object within the execute method could not use Struts - and ActionEvent objects have often been used in actionPerformed methods earlier. Please help !

I basically did this. I formatted the number using a NumberFormat, set the form in the action class, then returned to the page. I was hoping there was a slick format in struts for this (that works). ~Cheers!

The Form bean can then convert from and to the String representations (you'll have to call the conversion methods yourself though, unless you extend Struts). An even different approach is if your data objects and your struts forms have the same name, you can use the Jakarta Commons BeanUtils classes. BeanUtils.copyProperties(Object destination, Object original); Will copy all the properties from original to destination (using reflection). The cool part is, you can "register" your own conversion objects. I do this so I don't have to bother writing extra methods to get certain fields as different types. -- now with more cowbell Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         AppletTalk.com Forum Index -> Java Language Programming All times are GMT Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Java Newsgroups----------------Java DiscussionsWeb-based java games comp.lang.java 3D Graphics API's for Java Java: Support and criticism Java System Announcements comp.lang.java.api JavaBeans Java and CORBA Java and Databases comp.lang.java.developer Java GUI Toolkits Java Help comp.lang.java.javascript JVM, native methods and hardware comp.lang.java.misc Java Language Programming Security and Java comp.lang.java.setup Java Software Tools comp.lang.java.tech ibm.software.java.linux  Non-English Java Newsgroups----------------Java Language (German)Language Java (Français)Java (Italian)  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2006 phpBB Group SEO toolkit © 2004-2006 webmedic.
