41
<li>Commons Digester dependency changed to Version 1.6</li>

43

44
<li>Dependency on Commons Lang has been removed</li>
48
<h4>Saving Messages in the Session</h4>
50
A new method to store <i>errors</i> in the Session [<code>saveErrors(HttpSession, ActionMessages)</code>]
51
has been added to <i>Action</i> along with the automatic removal of these errors once they have been
52
accessed. This is equivalent to the facility for <i>messages</i> that was included in the Version 1.2.4
56
<h4>Re-directing ActionForward</h4>
58
<i>ActionRedirect</i> is a subclass of ActionForward which is designed for use in redirecting requests,
59
with support for adding parameters at runtime. See the <i>javadoc</i> for more details.
62
<h4>Download Action</h4>
64
<i>DownloadAction</i> is an abstract action that provides the nuts and bolts for downloading
65
files. See the <i>javadocs</i> and <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsFileDownload">Wiki</a>
66
for further information.
69
<h4>Dispatch Helper</h4>
71
<i>ActionDispatcher</i> is a helper class for providing <i>DispatchAction</i> type behaviour
72
without having to inherit from <i>DispatchAction</i>. See the <i>javadoc</i> for more details.
75
<h4><i>Lazy</i> Validator Form</h4>
77
A <i>DynaBean</i> flavour ActionForm which doesn't need its properties to be
78
defined and provides <i>Lazy List</i> and <i>Lazy Map</i> behaviours.
80
<h4> Config Files in jars</h4>
82
Config files (i.e. Struts config, Validator config and Tiles config files) can now be stored in jars.
83
Struts checks the servlet context, as before but if not found Struts now tries the classloader to try
86
<h3>Tag Library Changes</h3>
87
<h4>Highlighting Errors</h4>
89
Struts can now automatically highlight error fields using the new <i>errorKey</i>,
90
<i>errorStyle</i>, <i>errorStyleClass</i> and <i>errorStyleId</i> attributes on the HTML
91
Input Tags. See the <a href="struts-html.html">User Guide</a> for details of these attributes.
93
<h4>Readonly / Disabled Forms</h4>
95
It is now possible to either <i>disable</i> or make <i>read only</i> all fields for a form
96
using the new <i>readonly</i> and <i>disabled</i> attributes on the <html:form> tag.
97
<b>N.B.</b>The <i>readonly</i> attribute only affects <html:text>, <html:textarea>
98
and <html:password> as per the HTML 4 specification.
99
See the <a href="struts-html.html#form">User Guide</a> for details of these attributes.
102
<h4>HTML Tag Refactoring</h4>
104
Many of the <i>HTML</i> tags have been refactored to make them easier to extend.
106
<ul><li>A <b>prepareOtherAttributes()</b> method was added - called just before the closing
107
tag element, it provides a place to render additional attributes.</li>
108
<li>The <i>name</i> attribute rendering is now in a <b>prepareName()</b> method to make it
109
easier to provide custom behaviour.</li>
110
<li>The <i>value</i> attribute rendering is now in a <b>prepareValue()</b> method to make it
111
easier to provide custom behaviour.</li>
112
<li>When rendering an attribute, these tags now use the <i>getter</i> for the property rather than the
113
actual property - that means that if you wanted, for example to override the TextTag's <i>styleClass</i>
114
then one option is to override the getStyleClass() method.</li>
115
<li>Rendering of attributes now uses a simple <b>prepareAttribute()</b> method to generate the
116
<i>name="attribute"</i> format, making most attribute rendering a one line statement.</li>
118
<h4>Bundle Attribute</h4>
120
The <i>bundle</i> attribute has been added to the following <i>HTML</i> tags:
121
ButtonTag, CancelTag, CheckboxTag, FileTag, FrameTag, HiddenTag, LinkTag, MultiboxTag,
122
PasswordTag, RadioTag, ResetTag, SelectTag, SubmitTag, TextTag, TextareaTag.
123
See the <a href="struts-html.html">User Guide</a> for details of the bundle attribute
128
Now has <b>header</b>, <b>footer</b>, <b>prefix</b>, <b>suffix</b> attributes.
129
See the <a href="struts-html.html#errors">User Guide</a> for details of these attributes.
133
<h4>Resource Bundle Support</h4>
135
The <i>bundle</i> attribute for the <msg> and <arg> elements in the Validator
136
configuration file (e.g. <i>validation.xml</i>) are now supported along with the <i>resource</i>
137
attribute on the <msg> element.
140
New pages have been added to the <i>struts-examples</i> webapp showing the new
141
<i>Resource Bundle Support</i> and a page for <i>validwhen</i> examples.
146
Struts has migrated it's source repository from CVS to Subversion, following which the
147
repository has been refactored into subprojects. The subproject re-factoring does not
148
however affect the 1.2.x series which is released from the
149
<a href="http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/struts/core/branches/STRUTS_1_2_BRANCH/">STRUTS_1_2</a> branch.
153
On the <a href="../volunteers.html">people</a> front, in addition to <i>Martin Cooper</i> being
154
appointed the <a href="../announce.html#a20050331">new PMC chair</a>, one new committer,
155
<i>Hubert Rabago</i>, accepted an invitation to join us, and we welcome back <i>David Geary</i>
156
from emeritus to active status.
