Ive run into a problem that is probably very esaily solved, but I cant
seem to find the problem. I am trying to grab a value from an
attribute in my ActionForm to use as a tag parameter within my JSP. The
attribute is an int. I am defining the attribute in the jsp with
the following tag:
<bean:define id="maintenanceType" property="maintenanceType"
name="hardwareForm" type="int"/>
Problem is the JSP errors with the following:
Incompatible type for declaration. Can't convert null to int.
Within the compile jsp I see this:
_jspx_th_bean_define_0.setPageContext(pageContext);
_jspx_th_bean_define_0.setParent(null);
_jspx_th_bean_define_0.setId("maintenanceType");
_jspx_th_bean_define_0.setName("hardwareForm");
_jspx_th_bean_define_0.setProperty("maintenanceType");
_jspx_th_bean_define_0.setType("int");
int maintenanceType = null; <----- error here
Why is the tag trying to force the initial value to null instead of 0?
Am I using the tag incorrectly? By the way, I have used this tag on the
same page for retrieving a String attribute without any problems. Any
help is greatly appreciated.
