Struts源码研究 - html:Cancel标签应用注意事项

2008-10-24 16:06 639 查看
Struts里的html:Cancel标签是在Form中经常运用的一个标签,主要功能就是cancel当前Form,一般写法如下:

<html:cancel>

<bean:message key="createuser.cancelbutton"/>

</html:cancel>

这个标签将生成如下的HTML代码:
<input type="submit" name="org.apache.struts.taglib.html.CANCEL" value="返回" >
bCancel=true是一段javascript,bCancel是在使用Struts的Validator时,Struts自动为我们加的一段Javascript代码里的一个变量
这段Javascript简略摘要如下:

<script type="text/javascript" language="Javascript1.1">

<!-- Begin

var bCancel = false;

function validateCreateUserForm(form) {

if (bCancel)

return true;

else

return validateMaxLength(form) && validateRequired(form) && validateMinLength(form);

}

。。。以下省略

由上可以看到,这个bCancel=true时,Javascript将自动将表单提交(return true),也就是说,如果我们在后台Action的代码里
没有对这个Cancel动作写特定代码的话,这个Cancel标签产生的效果和submit按钮产生的动作完全一致!!(因为这个按钮的
type也等于submit)
这一点需要非常的注意!所以,一般来说,我们在Action类的execute方法里面会加上如下的一段代码来处理这个Cancel动作:

// Was this transaction cancelled?

if (isCancelled(request)) {

return (mapping.findForward("createusersuccess"));

}

有了以上的代码,Cancel动作就有了相应的处理代码,转到相关的页面了。
本来事情已经解决,但本着对Struts源码研究的精神,我们还需要对以上代码研究一下
OK,让我们来看一下isCancelled这个方法在什么地方被定义了,内容是什么?
首先发现,这个方法被定义在Action类里面,代码如下:

/**

* <p>Returns <code>true</code> if the current form's cancel button was

* pressed. This method will check if the <code>Globals.CANCEL_KEY</code>

* request attribute has been set, which normally occurs if the cancel

* button generated by <strong>CancelTag</strong> was pressed by the user

* in the current request. If <code>true</code>, validation performed

* by an <strong>ActionForm</strong>'s <code>validate()</code> method

* will have been skipped by the controller servlet.</p>

*

* @param request The servlet request we are processing

* @see org.apache.struts.taglib.html.CancelTag

*/

protected boolean isCancelled(HttpServletRequest request) {

return (request.getAttribute(Globals.CANCEL_KEY) != null);

}

哦,原来是在request对象中查找Globals.CANCEL_KEY这个key值是否绑定了一个对象,如果是,那么就代表按下Cancel按钮后,
Struts会在request对象中绑定一个对象,并以这个key值来命名
那Struts是在什么地方绑定了这个对象呢?很自然的,让我们从头找起
从ActionServlet的process方法开始找起,历经多次方法调用,终于找到了根源,原来是在RequestProcessor.java中,代码如下:

/**

* <p>Process an <code>HttpServletRequest</code> and create the

* corresponding <code>HttpServletResponse</code>.</p>

*

* @param request The servlet request we are processing

* @param response The servlet response we are creating

*

* @exception IOException if an input/output error occurs

* @exception ServletException if a processing exception occurs

*/

public void process(HttpServletRequest request,

HttpServletResponse response)

throws IOException, ServletException {

//。。。省略代码若干

// Process any ActionForm bean related to this request

ActionForm form = processActionForm(request, response, mapping);

//答案就在这个processPopulate方法中

processPopulate(request, response, form, mapping);

if (!processValidate(request, response, form, mapping)) {

return;

}

/**

* Populate the properties of the specified ActionForm instance from

* the request parameters included with this request. In addition,

* request attribute <code>Globals.CANCEL_KEY</code> will be set if

* the request was submitted with a button created by

* <code>CancelTag</code>.

*

* @param request The servlet request we are processing

* @param response The servlet response we are creating

* @param form The ActionForm instance we are populating

* @param mapping The ActionMapping we are using

*

* @exception ServletException if thrown by RequestUtils.populate()

*/

protected void processPopulate(HttpServletRequest request,

HttpServletResponse response,

ActionForm form,

ActionMapping mapping)

throws ServletException {

if (form == null) {

return;

}

// Populate the bean properties of this ActionForm instance

if (log.isDebugEnabled()) {

log.debug(" Populating bean properties from this request");

}

form.setServlet(this.servlet);

form.reset(mapping, request);

if (mapping.getMultipartClass() != null) {

request.setAttribute(Globals.MULTIPART_KEY,

mapping.getMultipartClass());

}

RequestUtils.populate(form, mapping.getPrefix(), mapping.getSuffix(),

request);

// Set the cancellation request attribute if appropriate

if ((request.getParameter(Constants.CANCEL_PROPERTY) != null) ||

(request.getParameter(Constants.CANCEL_PROPERTY_X) != null)) {

request.setAttribute(Globals.CANCEL_KEY, Boolean.TRUE);

}

}

OK,看最后几行代码,Struts从request中取得Constants.CANCEL_PROPERTY这个参数,如果这个参数不为空,那么他就将
TRUE这个对象以Globals.CANCEL_KEY为key值,放到了request对象中
至于这个Constants.CANCEL_PROPERTY这个值是什么,现在都可以猜到了,显然就是html:Cancel这个标签生成的HTML代码
中,Cancel这个按钮的名称嘛!查了一下,果然是:

<input type="submit" name="org.apache.struts.taglib.html.CANCEL" value="返回" >
而Constants.CANCEL_PROPERTY这个值就是org.apache.struts.taglib.html.CANCEL

至此,真相大白,看来以后使用html:Cancel这个标签要小心了 :)
