在学习BaseCommandController时,我们知道,当提交表单时,controller会把表单元素注入到command类里,但是系统注入的只能是基本类型,如int,char,String。但当我们在command类里需要复杂类型,如Integer,date,或自己定义的类时,controller就不会那么聪明了。这时,就需要我们帮助他们了。
一般的做法是在自己的controller里override initBinder()方法。这里我们修改一下学习SimpleFormController的那个例子。
先看一下command类:
public class User { private String account; private String phone; private Integer age; private String city; private Date birthday; private Date createTime; public Date getBirthday() { return birthday; } public void setBirthday(Date birthday) { this.birthday = birthday; } public String getAccount() { return account; } public void setAccount(String account) { this.account = account; } public Integer getAge() { return age; } public void setAge(Integer age) { this.age = age; } public String getPhone() { return phone; } public void setPhone(String phone) { this.phone = phone; } public Date getCreateTime() { return createTime; } public void setCreateTime(Date createTime) { this.createTime = createTime; } public String getCity() { return city; } public void setCity(String city) { this.city = city; } }
可以看出,比以前多了一个birthday属性,这是需要用户填写的,它的类型是date。此外,我们还把age改成Integer型了。这两个属性系统是不会自动注入。
好了,在UserController里覆盖initBinder()方法:
import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Date; import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.List; import java.util.Map;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import org.springframework.validation.BindException; import org.springframework.web.bind.ServletRequestDataBinder ; import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView; import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.SimpleFormController; import com.yangsq.domain.City; import com.yangsq.domain.User; import com.yangsq.validator.DateEditor; import com.yangsq.validator.IntegerEditor;
public class UserController extends SimpleFormController { protected void initBinder(HttpServletRequest req, ServletRequestDataBinder binder) throws Exception { binder.registerCustomEditor(Integer.class, "age", new IntegerEditor()); binder.registerCustomEditor(Date.class, "birthday", new DateEditor()); }
protected Map referenceData(HttpServletRequest req) throws Exception { Map map = new HashMap(); List cityList = new ArrayList(); City city1 = new City(); city1.setCityName("BeiJing"); city1.setCityNo("010"); cityList.add(city1); City city2 = new City(); city2.setCityName("ShangHai"); city2.setCityNo("020"); cityList.add(city2); map.put("cityList", cityList); return map; }
protected void onBind(HttpServletRequest req, Object obj) throws Exception { User user = (User) obj; //format the infor user.setAccount(user.getAccount().trim()); user.setPhone(user.getPhone().trim()); }
protected void onBindAndValidate(HttpServletRequest req, Object obj, BindException err) throws Exception { User user = (User) obj; user.setCreateTime(new Date()); }
protected ModelAndView onSubmit(Object obj) throws Exception { User user = (User) obj; return new ModelAndView(this.getSuccessView(), "user", user); } }
红色标出的是新加入的方法,其他不变。可以看出使用了 binder.registerCustomEditor 方法,它是用来注册的。所谓注册即告诉Spring,注册的属性由我来注入,不用你管了。可以看出我们注册了“age”和“birthday”属性。那么这两个属性就由我们自己注入了。那么怎么注入呢,就是使用 IntegerEditor() 和DateEditor() 方法。希望仔细思考一下registerCustomEditor 方法的参数含义。
下面是 IntegerEditor() 方法:
import java.beans.PropertyEditorSupport;
public class IntegerEditor extends PropertyEditorSupport {
public String getAsText () { Integer value = (Integer) getValue(); if(null == value){ value = new Integer(0); } return value.toString(); }
public void setAsText (String text) throws IllegalArgumentException { Integer value = null; if(null != text && !text.equals("")){ value = Integer.valueOf(text); } setValue(value); } }
下面是
DateEditor()
方法:
import java.beans.PropertyEditorSupport; import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import java.util.Date;
public class DateEditor extends PropertyEditorSupport {
public String getAsText () { Date value = (Date) getValue(); if(null == value){ value = new Date(); } SimpleDateFormat df =new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd"); return df.format(value); }
public void setAsText (String text) throws IllegalArgumentException { Date value = null; if(null != text && !text.equals("")){ SimpleDateFormat df =new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd"); try{ value = df.parse(text); }catch(Exception e){ e.printStackTrace(); } } setValue(value); } }
getAsText 和setAsText 是要从新定义的。其中getAsText 方法在get方法请求时会调用,而 setAsText 方法在post方法请求时会调用。
