Hi Silvian,
you have to know the propertyname and write accessor-methods. Where should struts know, which property to put out?
Have a look at the jstl-core library.

Hi,
I wanted to create a Form Bean to represent a list of StorableObjects with a filter bean nested inside in order to be able to handle generically list display of Objects.
Here is my ListBean code :
public class ListBean extends ActionForm {
private ArrayList l;
private StorableObject filter;
public void setList(ArrayList l){
this.l = l;
}
public ArrayList getList(){
return l;
}
public Integer getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Integer id) {
this.id = id;
}
public StorableObject getFilter() {
return filter;
}
public void setFilter(StorableObject filter) {
this.filter = filter;
}
}
The objects are stored in the list property of the bean, and filter parameters are stored in filter property.
The StorableObject Class is abstract, and thus doesn't have any properties, implementing classes have such properties accessors. Form population with the right class type is made at runtime by the action.
When submitting the filter form, I get a javax.servlet.ServletException: BeanUtils.populate exception, despite
I am able to display values populated by the action.
It seems that in this case Struts tries to populate a bean of type StorableObject, and since this one is abstract it results in a error.
So, my question, is there a way to make struts use a generic form bean with any properties names and values and then handle it by hand in the action ?
Any input would be appreciated. Sylvain.
