Pass parameters to Struts forward

try setting redirect to false in your forward:
<forward name="success" path="/NewsSystem/newslist.jsp" redirect="false"/>

>  try setting redirect to false in your forward:
if it's false, i even can't point my browser to    ......../newslist.do?sysId=4

ohhh....it seems i need to examine Struts sources...hm...%-/
strange...so simple thing, and no support for it...

hm...yeah...there no anything about it in Struts ;(
Tim, i believe you mean ActionForward not ActionMapping :)
I get the same answer from JSP guys.
So, i write simple wrapper class for it, like this :
................................
import java.util.*;
import org.apache.struts.action.*;

/**
*  Encupsulates parameters for ActionForward.
*/
public class ForwardParameters{
      private Map params=new HashMap();
      
      public ForwardParameters add(String paramName,String paramValue){
            params.put(paramName,paramValue);
            return this;
      }
      
      /**
      * Add parameters to provided ActionForward
      * @param forward ActionForward to add parameters to
      * @return ActionForward with added parameters to URL
      */
      public ActionForward forward(ActionForward forward){
            StringBuffer path=new StringBuffer(forward.getPath());
            Iterator iter=params.entrySet().iterator();
            if(iter.hasNext()){
               //add first parameter, if avaliable
                  Map.Entry entry=(Map.Entry)iter.next();
                  path.append("?"+entry.getKey()+"="+entry.getValue());                  
               //add other parameters      
                  while(iter.hasNext()){
                        entry=(Map.Entry)iter.next();
                        path.append("&"+entry.getKey()+"="+entry.getValue());
                  }
            }
            
            return new ActionForward(path.toString());
      }      
}
.................................

and my life become much easier now :):
........................
            return new ForwardParameters().add("sysId","4")
                                          .add("id","5")
                                          .add("some","value")
                                          .forward(mapping.findForward("success"));
......................

Thans Tim.

Woo!  Nice wrapper :-)

I think  I'll use that too :-)  Woo!

Good luck!!

Tim

have a nice week :)
