How To Create Struts Application Using Netbeans

Struts Tutorial



The example application described below is a basic Struts  application. The basic flow of the application is a simple form page which goes through a Struts action and re-displays the contents of the form.

MVC Architecture
The main aim of the MVC architecture  is to separate the business logic and application data from the presentation data to the user.
Here are the reasons why we should use the MVC design pattern.
  1. They are resuable : When the problems recurs, there is no need to invent a new solution, we just have to follow the pattern and adapt it as necessary.
  2. They are expressive: By using the MVC design pattern our application becomes more expressive.
1).  Model: The model object knows about all the data that need to be displayed. It is model who is aware about all the operations that can be applied to transform that object. It only represents the data of an application. The model represents enterprise data and the business rules that govern access to and updates of this data. Model is not aware about the presentation data and how that data will be displayed to the browser.  
2). View : The view represents the presentation of the application. The view object refers to the model. It uses the query methods of the model to obtain the contents and renders it. The view is not dependent on the application logic. It remains same if there is any modification in the business logic. In other words, we can say that it is the responsibility of the of the view's to maintain the consistency in its presentation when the model changes.
3). Controller:  Whenever the user sends a request for something then it always go through the controller. The controller is responsible for intercepting the requests from view and passes it to the model for the appropriate action. After the action has been taken on the data, the controller is responsible for directing the appropriate view to the user. In  GUIs, the views and the controllers often work very closely together.
Overview of the Struts Framework
The Struts framework is composed of approximately 300 classes and interfaces which are organized in about 12 top level packages. Along with the utility and helper classes framework also provides the classes and interfaces for working with controller and presentation by the help of the custom tag libraries. It is entirely on to us which model we want to choose. 

The Struts Controller Components:
Whenever a user request for something, then the request is handled by the Struts Action Servlet. When the ActionServlet receives the request, it intercepts the URL and based on the Struts Configuration files, it gives the handling of the request to the Action class. Action class is a part of the controller and is responsible for communicating with the model layer.
The Struts View Components:
The view components are responsible for presenting information to the users and accepting the input from them. They are responsible for displaying the information provided by the model components. Mostly we use the Java Server Pages (JSP) for the view presentation. To extend the capability of the view we can use the Custom tags, java script etc.
 The Struts model component:
The model components provides a model of the business logic behind a Struts program. It provides interfaces to databases or back- ends systems. Model components are generally a java class. There is not any such defined format for a Model component, so it is possible for us to reuse Java code which are written for other projects. We should choose the model according to our client requirement.

WAP to calculate the monthly telephone bills as per the following rule: Minimum Rs. 200 for upto 100 calls. Plus Rs. 0.60 per call for next 50 calls. Plus Rs. 0.50 per call for next 50 calls. Plus Rs. 0.40 per call for any call beyond 200 calls.

  #include<iostream.h> #include<conio.h> void main() { int calls; float bill; cout<<" Enter number of calls : "; cin>>calls; if (calls<=100) bill=200; else if (calls>100 && calls<=150) { calls=calls-100; bill=200+(0.60*calls); } else if (calls>150 && calls<=200) { calls=calls-150; bill=200+(0.60*50)+(0.50*calls); } else { calls=calls-200; bill=200+(0.60*50)+(0.50*50)+(0.40*calls); } cout<<" Your bill is Rs. "<<bill; getch(); }   Output: Enter number of calls : 190 Your bill is Rs.250
