JSTL and DynaActionForm

[John C Cartwright]

Hello All,

I'm trying to understand why I cannot access the properties in a DynaActionForm bean via JSTL (e.g. <c:out>). For example, given a DynaForm configured thusly:

<form-bean
name="mapserviceSummaryForm"
dynamic="true"
type="org.apache.struts.action.DynaActionForm">
<form-property name="mapserviceList" type="java.util.ArrayList"/>
</form-bean>


I am trying to access the name property of one of the beans in the ArrayList from JSP. This works fine:

<bean:write name="mapserviceSummaryForm" property="mapserviceList[0].name" />

but this does not:

<c:out value="${mapserviceSummaryForm.mapserviceList[0].name}" />

I don't think that it's a scope problem or the bean not being populated because this:

<c:out value="${mapserviceSummaryForm}" />

produces this (there's only one bean in the ArrayList):

DynaActionForm[dynaClass=mapserviceSummaryForm,mapserviceList={basicworld3}]


Thanks for any help or clarification on what I'm doing wrong!
