public class JSPInitialQuestionsStep
extends JSPStep

Initial Submission servlet for DSpace JSP-UI. Handles the initial questions which are asked to users to gather information regarding what metadata needs to be gathered.

This JSPStep class works with the SubmissionController servlet for the JSP-UI The following methods are called in this order:

• Call doPreProcessing() method
• If showJSP() was specified from doPreProcessing(), then the JSP specified will be displayed
• If showJSP() was not specified from doPreProcessing(), then the doProcessing() method is called an the step completes immediately
• Call doProcessing() method on appropriate AbstractProcessingStep after the user returns from the JSP, in order to process the user input
• Call doPostProcessing() method to determine if more user interaction is required, and if further JSPs need to be called.
• If there are more "pages" in this step then, the process begins again (for the new page).
• Once all pages are complete, control is forwarded back to the SubmissionController, and the next step is called.

doPreProcessing

public void doPreProcessing(Context context,
                            javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                            javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
                            SubmissionInfo subInfo)
                     throws javax.servlet.ServletException,
                            java.io.IOException,
                            java.sql.SQLException,
                            AuthorizeException

Do any pre-processing to determine which JSP (if any) is used to generate the UI for this step. This method should include the gathering and validating of all data required by the JSP. In addition, if the JSP requires any variable to passed to it on the Request, this method should set those variables.

If this step requires user interaction, then this method must call the JSP to display, using the "showJSP()" method of the JSPStepManager class.

If this step doesn't require user interaction OR you are solely using Manakin for your user interface, then this method may be left EMPTY, since all step processing should occur in the doProcessing() method.

Specified by:

doPreProcessing in class JSPStep

Parameters:

context - current DSpace context

request - current servlet request object

response - current servlet response object

subInfo - submission info object

Throws:

javax.servlet.ServletException

java.io.IOException

java.sql.SQLException

AuthorizeException

                             javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
