[OFBiz] Users - need help, please

[Hao Jiang-4]

Hello

I have a web form target to a java method, which takes
(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response)
as parameters, after it's done, back to the same page.

Now the java code worked OK, did what I expected. But this time I want
to have success/error message show up after this action. I have read
some source code, it seems that return  "ServiceUtil.returnSuccess()"
will do that, however, ServiceUtil.returnSuccess() is a "map" type and
the method I wrote can only return String type.

How can I do to have those return messages appear on the web page?

Thanks

Hao

ServiceUtil is for services.  You are writing a servlet.  Look in one of
the envsetup.bsh and it will show you how it is retrieving the error
messages.  Set them the same way.

Hao,

you have probably written an event method; if so, you should return
"success" or "error" and then use them in the controller to redirect to
the proper pages (you'll see a lot of examples of this in many OFBiz
components (see for example the product/catalog application).

Thanks Si and Jacopo,

If the return is "success", probably I will go to the next page, but in
case of "error", I want to stay there and show exactly what the error
message is.

Now I think I had some clues but not sure it's correct.

The form I had is inside application/ecommerce, in controller.xml I
defined the action as "java" type, and the java method is in another
module application/new, which is fine.

In application/ecommerce there is no servicedef folder, that's why I
haven't defined above action as "service" type. Now after read
controller.xml file carefully, I found that it still can use "service"
type, and apparently it can refer to an entry in service.xml inside
application/new.

Therefore I could have an entry in service.xml, type as java, this time
I can use similar java code but the method will no longer a servlet, it
will take (DispatchContext dctx, Map context) as parameters and return a
map

Is it OK to do that way?

Thanks

Hao

Hello

Sorry me again.

I'm trying:

1. a form set target to a servlet
2. after servlet has done, the next step is a service, sending email
3. the service back to the first page

I try to follow the procedure of  "checkExternalPayment", which in
controller.xml

<request-map uri="checkExternalPayment">
        <security https="true" direct-request="false"/>
        <event type="java"
path="org.ofbiz.order.shoppingcart.CheckOutEvents"
invoke="checkExternalPayment"/>
        <response name="none" type="request" value="emailorder"/>
        <response name="offline" type="request" value="emailorder"/>
        <response name="worldpay" type="request" value="callWorldPay"/>
        <response name="paypal" type="request" value="callPayPal"/>
        <response name="billact" type="request" value="emailorder"/>
        <response name="cod" type="request" value="emailorder"/>
        <response name="error" type="view" value="checkoutreview"/>
    </request-map>

    <request-map uri="emailorder">
        <security https="true" direct-request="false"/>
        <event type="service" path="async"
invoke="sendOrderConfirmation"/>
        <response name="success" type="view" value="ordercomplete"/>
        <response name="error" type="view" value="ordercomplete"/>
    </request-map>

in services.xml

    <service name="sendOrderConfirmation" engine="java" require-new-
transaction="true" max-retry="3"
            location="org.ofbiz.order.order.OrderServices"
invoke="sendOrderConfirmNotification">
        <description>Send a order confirmation</description>
        <implements service="orderNotificationInterface"/>
        <attribute name="sendTo" type="String" mode="IN"
optional="true"/>
        <attribute name="sendCc" type="String" mode="IN"
optional="true"/>
        <attribute name="note" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"/>
    </service>

but I couldn't find a way to pass some parameters from servlet to
service, I noted that in "sendOrderConfirmNotification" java method
there is
String orderId = (String) context.get("orderId");

but where and when this information has been inserted?

Thanks

Hao
