Re: jsp:setProperty

[Kris Schneider]

commons-beanutils.jar is part of the Struts 1.1 distribution. It's also an entirely independent Jakarta Commons component. I still think you should really check out the org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils.populate method. Otherwise, you'll have to do the work of converting the request params into a Map that can be used by BeanUtils.populate.

Sorry but just let me get this clear in my head.

There are BeanUtils class in commons.beanutils package.
This is not part of the struts distribution? Separate package?
So is it part of the latest tomcat distribution? (I think I recall seeing
a commons jar file in the tomcat area)

Subject: jsp:setProperty

Hello All,

This is probably not the best forum, but I was wondering if

anyone new how to, do the equivalent of

jsp:setProperty "*" in a servlet

Or is this not possible?

Actually it is, and it's the basic reason that the BeanUtils classes were
created in the first place. See the BeanUtils.copyProperties() and
BeanUtils.populate() methods -- Struts actually uses the latter when it
populates your form bean properties for you. Javadocs are at:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/api/
