Jsp Gurus,
I trying to do user authentication by using a java class called
Administrator in my jsp. I need to attach this object to the session so i
can check on each page if this is not null and so the page can be viewed
else send them to the login page.
The code is
<%@ page language="java" import="myBeans.*" %>
<jsp:useBean id="auth" scope="page" class="myBeans.ValidateAdmin" />
<jsp:setProperty name="auth" property="*"/>
<%! String display;
%>
<%
display = "launch.jsp";
try
{
Administrator admin = auth.authenticate();
// check if the user is allowed to view the next page
if (admin != null)
{
out.println("The admin is not null");
session.setAttribute ("administrator",admin);
}
%>
<jsp:include page="nextpage.jsp" />
<%
}
catch (Exception e){}
%>
It works fine till i add the line
session.setAttribute() to add the object in the session. When i do that i
get the following error
Fri Jul 14 13:50:45 EDT 2000:<E> <ServletContext-General> Compilation of
