In order to set my bean properties based on an incoming (POST'ed) HTML form,
I'm using the following construct in a JSP page:
<jsp:useBean id="ord" class="ord.OrderBean" scope="request">
<jsp:setProperty name="ord" property="*"/>
</jsp:useBean>
It works fine except now I want to process something a little different. I'm
working on an Order entry system and the Order Items are a repeating group of
fields. In my HTML form I have <input> fields named like "partNumber0,
quantity0, price0" and "partNumber1, quantity1, price1" that repeat for each
potential item in an order.
Is there any way to use the <jsp:setProperty> construct to automatically set
the properties in an OrderItems bean. I'm guessing it might have something to
do with indexed properties but I really can't see how this would work. If I
have my bean as
public class OrderItemBean
{
String[] partNumber;
...
public void setPartNumber( int index, String value ) {...}
...
}
Is the JSP runtime going to be able to take the partNumber0 field and be able
to call my indexed-property setter method with the correct index. What if I
use the version
public void setPartNumber( String[] value );
as my setter method?
Any and all help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kevin
