On Mon, Jul 30, 2012 at 12:20 PM, Senthil Kumar R.G.

[Senthil Kumar R.G.]

This error is because conflict of play version mismatch in my machine and urs.
Ok u do one thing, just create a new project inside the play folder and add the extra files that i have gave i.e in conf/play.plugins folder and build.scala ,application.scala i have added code to send email just see it.

[Senthil Kumar R.G.]

Which play version ur using. is that play 2.0 because i am using play 2.0

[Sameer Verasiya]

yes i m using play 2.0.. I m using linux as an operating system.. can
you just tht project file i sent u earlier .. n else i have also
figuerd out the build.properties file .. the project u sent had
build.properties in which the sbt version is bt.version=0.11.3 and i
have sbt.version=0.11.2


is that an issue?? and else it also not allowing me to eclipsify your
project plus am not able to import your project in eclipse as well

[Senthil Kumar R.G.]

Hi
It worked for me i mean i tested ur code and it works the mistake u made is go to ur application.java file and change with this code

Note u have to add configuration in application.conf file also

package controllers;

import play.*;
import play.mvc.*;
import com.typesafe.plugin.*;

import views.html.*;

public class Application extends Controller {
 
  public static Result index() {
    MailerAPI mail = play.Play.application().plugin(MailerPlugin.class).email();
    mail.setSubject("mailer");
    mail.addRecipient("r.g.s...@agriya.in");
    mail.addFrom("Peter Hausel <nor...@email.com>");
    //sends html
    mail.sendHtml("<html>html</html>" );
    //sends text/text
    //mail.send( "text" );
    //sends both text and html
    //mail.send( "text", "<html>html</html>");
    return ok(index.render("Your new application is ready."));

[Senthil Kumar R.G.]

Hi can u help me from this. i m using scala not java with play 2.0

1.  What is the alternative for request.action i.e i need the action and method name of current page.

2. How to change the config variable
    In play 1.0 i used setConfig but in play 2.X there is no such property in configuration.

3. How to store cookie values is there any way other than withCookies in redirect(routes.user.create)

4. Whether flashing will work only in redirect
