To integrate your Struts application with Spring, you have two options:
Configure Spring to manage your Actions as beans, using the ContextLoaderPlugin, and set their dependencies in a Spring context file.
Subclass Spring's ActionSupport classes and grab your Spring-managed beans explicitly using a getWebApplicationContext() method.
As previously mentioned, you can retrieve the WebApplicationContext from the ServletContext using the WebApplicationContextUtils class. An easier way is to extend Spring's Action classes for Struts. For example, instead of subclassing Struts' Action class, you can subclass Spring's ActionSupport class.
The ActionSupport class provides additional convenience methods, like getWebApplicationContext(). Below is an example of how you might use this in an Action:
public class UserAction extends DispatchActionSupport { public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception { if (log.isDebugEnabled()) { log.debug("entering 'delete' method..."); } WebApplicationContext ctx = getWebApplicationContext(); UserManager mgr = (UserManager) ctx.getBean("userManager"); // talk to manager for business logic return mapping.findForward("success"); } }
Spring includes subclasses for all of the standard Struts Actions - the Spring versions merely have Support appended to the name:
The recommended strategy is to use the approach that best suits your project. Subclassing makes your code more readable, and you know exactly how your dependencies are resolved. However, using the ContextLoaderPlugin allow you to easily add new dependencies in your context XML file. Either way, Spring provides some nice options for integrating the two frameworks.
可见第二种方法更加简便。
JPetstore例子中并没有使用此方法,而使用了第三种方法。同样只需要动Action。如下:
public abstract class BaseAction extends Action {
private PetStoreFacade petStore;
public void setServlet(ActionServlet actionServlet) {
super.setServlet(actionServlet);
if (actionServlet != null) {
ServletContext servletContext = actionServlet.getServletContext();
WebApplicationContext wac = WebApplicationContextUtils.getRequiredWebApplicationContext(servletContext);
this.petStore = (PetStoreFacade) wac.getBean("petStore");
}
}
protected PetStoreFacade getPetStore() {
return petStore;
}
}
ok,这三种方法都可以让Spring与Struts整合,相比较第一种(因为配置很多这里没写,见refernce 16.3.1),
第二第三种方法比较简洁,侵入不多。
