Re: ??? property naming convention problem
This may be of interest: http://wiki.apache.org/struts/JavaBeans Quoting Andrew Hill [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Yes, it is rather confusing. I wasted *many* hours with this issue the first time it hit me! Another poster also stated that putting the property name as ECoupon in the JSP would work - and thats because with a getter getECoupon() that IS the real property name (like your saying in the last line of your email). Iirc the bean property capitalisation rules - which also cover multiple capital letters in a row - mean there is no equivalant getter for the property eCoupon, instead its ECoupon that maps to the getter getECoupon. So the fact here is that your _not_ naming your property eCoupon - your naming it ECoupon! :-) (The internal varioable name might be eCoupon, but it could equally well be foo or bob, or anything - it doesnt matter for the determination of the property name and as far as code that works with JavaBeans is concerned that property is called ECoupon and not eCoupon.

RE: ??? property naming convention problem
A property need not always imply a private member variable in a bean.
for example: MyBean.java
private map values = new HashMap();
public String getFirstName() {
return (String)values.get(firstname);
}
public void setFirstName(String firstNameIn) {
values.put(firstName,firstNameIn);
}
Here firstName is a property of MyBean that can be used in a jsp :
html:text property=firstName /

This is confusing. The bean spec / article is talking about
going from a
method name into a property name. The problem here is the
other way round.
WHat's confusing? Bean property names must begin with
lowercase first
letter. Getters and Setters capitalize this.
I've never had this issue. properties are always eCoupon
and setECoupon and
getEcoupon.
Actually, no. It's perfectly legal for a property name to
begin with an upper
case letter. Again, see:
http://wiki.apache.org/struts/JavaBeans
I see your specification and raise you the coding style:
http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/html/CodeConventions.doc8.html#367
Variables
Except for variables, all instance, class, and class constants are in mixed
case with a lowercase first letter. Internal words start with capital
letters. Variable names should not start with underscore _ or dollar sign $
characters, even though both are allowed.
Variable names should be short yet meaningful. The choice of a variable name
should be mnemonic- that is, designed to indicate to the casual observer the
intent of its use. One-character variable names should be avoided except for
temporary throwaway variables. Common names for temporary variables are i,
j, k, m, and n for integers; c, d, and e for characters.
int i;
charc;
float myWidth;
Eg, decapitalise method-property will convert:
getECoupon - ECoupon
But it doesnt mention property-method capitalise: eCoupon -
getECoupon /
geteCoupon
I think the assumption has been made that if youre going
to go from
getECoupon -ECoupon that you must go from
ECoupon-getECoupon and therefore
eCoupon-geteCoupon
However the spec doesnt say that this should be a reversible
process, so why
not eCoupon-getECoupon

RE: ??? property naming convention problem
Is that supposed to be some sort of bluff? What do variable names have to do with bean properties? By default, property names are derived from *method* names. For example, the property exposed by TimeZone.getID() is ID, but the property exposed by SSLSession.getId() is id.

Re: ??? property naming convention problem
Jim, you're kidding, right? The original post had nothing to do with variable names and specifically related to bean property names. The key question from the original post is: Is there a property naming convention to be followed in STRUTS The answer is, yes. In general, property names follow the JavaBeans Spec. However, by leveraging Commons BeanUtils: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/commons-beanutils-1.6.1/docs/api/org/apache/commons/beanutils/package-summary.html Struts is able to provide some additional functionality, like mapped properties.

I have created the necessary ActionForm with the necessary setter and getter methods such as setECoupon and getECoupon. When I run submit the form within the corresponding JSP I get the error message not able to find the corresponding getter method for property eCoupon The moment I changed the property name to ecoupon and made the necessary adjustments within the ActionForm all began to work well. Is there a property naming convention to be followed in STRUTS With thanks and Regards Vinod Easaw Varghese - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
