I always include the following method in all my ActionForms... I'm sure you can
do the same in whatever bean you have, or adapt it to be able to pass the bean
to it if you can't modify the bean itself... This will actually show you all
fields AND their values, but you can of course hack it as you need to...
import java.lang.reflect.Field;
public String toString() {
String str = null;
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(1000);
sb.append(this.getClass().getName() + " [" + super.toString() + "] = { ");
try {
Field[] fields = this.getClass().getDeclaredFields();
for (int i = 0; i < fields.length; i++) {
if (sb.length() > 0) { sb.append(", "); }
sb.append(fields[i].getName() + "=" + fields[i].get(this));
}
sb.append(" }");
str = sb.toString().trim();
} catch (Exception e) { }
return str;
}
