Extjs Tree + JSON + Struts2

最近尝试用extjs来展示树状菜单。着实花了一番功夫。树状菜单的菜单项需要动态加载，而目前版本的extjs中只支持JSON格式的数据。查了 一些资料，决定使用struts2的json-plugin。首先按照例子做了一个，但是结果就是不成功，界面上只出来了一个js中生成的root节点， 不能加载从后台生成的数据。研究后发现是数据格式有问题。使用json-plugin生成的数据格式如下：
{"cls":"folder","id":10,"leaf":false,"children":[{"cls":"file","id":11,"leaf":true,"children":null,"text":"S600"},{"cls":"file","id":12,"leaf":true,"children":null,"text":"SLK200"}],"text":"Benz"}
而extjs需要的数据格式如下：
[{"cls":"folder","id":10,"leaf":false,"children":[{"cls":"file","id":11,"leaf":true,"children":null,"text":"S600"},{"cls":"file","id":12,"leaf":true,"children":null,"text":"SLK200"}],"text":"Benz"}]
区别很小，就只相差最外面的两个方括号。但是少了这两个方括号，在json中，含义迥然不同，前者表示一个对象，而后者表示一个数组。而extjs中 tree的dataloader需要的数据必须是一个数组。而这样的数据格式是json-plugin自动生成的，无法改变。所以，我最后放弃了json -plugin，转而使用json-lib来解决这个问题。
1. 下载json-lib, http://json-lib.sourceforge.net/
2. lib目录下的jar文件清单：
commons-beanutils-1.7.0.jar
commons-collections-3.2.jar
commons-digester-1.6.jar
commons-lang-2.3.jar
commons-logging-1.1.jar
dom4j-1.6.1.jar
ezmorph-1.0.4.jar
freemarker-2.3.8.jar
javassist-3.8.1.jar
json-lib-2.2.1-jdk15.jar
log4j-1.2.13.jar
ognl-2.6.11.jar
struts2-core-2.0.11.jar
xml-apis-1.0.b2.jar
xwork-2.0.4.jar


首先配置web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app version="2.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
    http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">
  <welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
  </welcome-file-list>
  <filter>
    <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher</filter-class>
  </filter>

  <filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
  </filter-mapping>
</web-app>

然后是struts.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE struts PUBLIC
    "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 2.0//EN"
    "http://struts.apache.org/dtds/struts-2.0.dtd">
  
<struts>
    <constant name="struts.devMode" value="true"/>
    <constant name="struts.i18n.encoding" value="UTF-8"/>
    <package name="person" extends="struts-default">
        <action name="menus" method="execute" class="com.lab.MenuAction">
            <result>/menu.jsp</result>
        </action>
    </package>
</struts>

3. 树的节点模型（省略了getter，setter)
public class Menu {
    private int id;
    private String text;
    private boolean leaf;
    private String cls;
    private List<Menu> children;
}

4. action
package com.lab;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

import net.sf.json.JSONArray;

public class MenuAction {
    private String menuString;
  
    private List<Menu> menus;
  
    public String execute() {

        menus = new ArrayList<Menu>();
      
        Menu benz = new Menu();
        benz.setText("Benz");
        benz.setCls("folder");
        benz.setLeaf(false);
        benz.setId(10);
        menus.add(benz);
      
        List<Menu> benzList = new ArrayList<Menu>();
        benz.setChildren(benzList);
      
        Menu menu;
        menu = new Menu();
        menu.setText("S600");
        menu.setCls("file");
        menu.setLeaf(true);
        menu.setId(11);
        benzList.add(menu);
        menu = new Menu();
        menu.setText("SLK200");
        menu.setCls("file");
        menu.setLeaf(true);
        menu.setId(12);
        benzList.add(menu);
      
        Menu bmw = new Menu();
        bmw.setText("BMW");
        bmw.setCls("folder");
        bmw.setLeaf(false);
        bmw.setId(20);
        menus.add(bmw);
      
        List<Menu> bmwList = new ArrayList<Menu>();
        bmw.setChildren(bmwList);
      
        menu = new Menu();
        menu.setText("325i");
        menu.setCls("file");
        menu.setLeaf(true);
        menu.setId(21);
        bmwList.add(menu);
      
        menu = new Menu();
        menu.setText("X5");
        menu.setCls("file");
        menu.setLeaf(true);
        menu.setId(22);
        bmwList.add(menu);
      
        JSONArray jsonObject = JSONArray.fromObject(menus);
        try {
            menuString = jsonObject.toString();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            menuString = "ss";
        }

        return "success";
    }

    public String getMenuString() {
        return menuString;
    }

    public void setMenuString(String menuString) {
        this.menuString = menuString;
    }
}

5. menu.jsp
<%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags" %>
<s:property value="menuString" escape="false"/>

6. html页面和js
我使用的就是extjs的example中的reorder.html和reorder.js，更改了reorder.js中treeloader的dataurl： menus.action
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Reorder TreePanel</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="extjs/resources/css/ext-all.css" />

<h1>Drag and Drop ordering in a TreePanel</h1>
<p>This example shows basic drag and drop node moving in a tree. In this implementation there are no restrictions and
anything can be dropped anywhere except appending to nodes marked &quot;leaf&quot; (the files). <br></p>
<p>Drag along the edge of the tree to trigger auto scrolling while performing a drag and drop.</p>
<p>In order to demonstrate drag and drop insertion points, sorting was <b>not</b> enabled.</p>
<p>The data for this tree is asynchronously loaded with a JSON TreeLoader.</p>
<p>The js is not minified so it is readable. See <a href="reorder.js">reorder.js</a>.</p>

<div id="tree-div" style="overflow:auto; height:300px;width:250px;border:1px solid #c3daf9;"></div>

</body>
