The ActionForm Class In this lesson you will learn about the ActionForm in detail. I will show you a good example of ActionForm. This example will help you understand Struts in detail. We will create user interface to accept the address details and then validate the details on server side. On the successful validation of data, the data will be sent to model (the action class). In the Action class we can add the business processing logic but in this case we are just forwarding it to the sucess.jsp. What is ActionForm? An ActionForm is a JavaBean that extends org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm. ActionForm maintains the session state for web application and the ActionForm object is automatically populated on the server side with data entered from a form on the client side. We will first create the class AddressForm which extends the ActionForm class. Here is the code of the class: AddressForm.java package sturtTest; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest; import org.apache.struts.action.*; /** * Form bean for the Address Entry Screen. * */ public class AddressForm extends ActionForm { private String name=null; private String address=null; private String emailAddress=null; public void setName(String name){ this.name=name; } public String getName(){ return this.name; } public void setAddress(String address){ this.address=address; } Comment [1]: start source code docsity.com
