Struts 2 Tutorial
RoseIndia Struts 2 Tutorial and Online free training helps you learn new elegant Struts 2 Framework with examples. Struts 2 is very elegant and flexible front controller framework based on many standard technologies like Java Filters, Java Beans, ResourceBundles, XML etc.
- Struts 2 Features It is very extensible as each class of the framework is based on an Interface and all the base classes are given an extra application and even you can add your own.
- Struts 2 History Apache Struts is an open-source framework that is used for developing Java web application. Originally developed by the programmer and author Craig R. McClanahan this was later taken over by the Apache Software Foundation in 2002.
- Struts 2 Architecture Struts and webwork has joined together to develop the Struts 2 Framework. Struts 2 Framework is very extensible and elegant for the development of enterprise web application of any size. In this section we are going to explain you the architecture of Struts 2 Framework.
- Why Struts 2 The new version Struts 2.0 is a combination of the Sturts action framework and Webwork. According to the Struts 2.0.1 release announcement, some key features are:
- Struts 1.x Vs Struts 2.x In the following section, we are going to compare the various features between the two frameworks. Struts 2.x is very simple in comparison to the struts 1.x , few of its excelling features are:
- Downloading and Installing Struts 2 In this section we will download and install the Struts 2.0 on the latest version of Tomcat container. We will first download tomcat and configure it as our development server.
Struts 2 Hello World Application
- Creating the development directory Structure In this section we will create directory structure of our Struts 2 Hello World application based on Struts 2 framework. Our Struts 2 Hello World application is your first step towards developing applications based on Struts 2 framework.
- Writing Jsp, Java and Configuration files In this section we will write JSP, Java and required configuration files for our Struts 2 Hello World application. Now in struts 2 struts.xml is used to configure the applications. We will also deploy and test the application.
- Struts 2 xml configuration file In this section we will introduce you with the struts.xml file. This section explains you how best you can use the struts.xml file for you big projects.
Struts 2 Actions
- Struts 2 Actions Example When a client request matches the action's name, the framework uses the mapping from struts.xml file to process the request.
- Struts 2 Actions Introduction When a client request matches the action's name, the framework uses the mapping from struts.xml file to process the request. The mapping to an action is usually generated by a Struts Tag.
Struts 2 Login Application
- Developing Login Application in Struts 2 In this section we are going to develop login application based on Struts 2 Framework. Our current login application does not validate the user against the database
- Adding Validation to Struts 2 Login Application In this section we will write the code to validate the login application. After completing this section you will be able to write validations for your Struts 2 projects.
- Running and testing application In this section we will run the example on Tomcat 6.0 server and check how it works.
- Client Side Validation in Struts 2 Login Application In this section we will see how to write code that will generate Java Script code for client side validation. In the last section we developed Login-validator.xml configuration file for defining the server side validation.
