I had the same problem some time ago (the solution vaguely suggested by Jack wouldn't had been an option since the properties were dynamic so I needed the key to distinguish between them). I asked on this list for help at that time, but didn't got an answer, so I guess nobody succeeded in doing something like this. Therefore I had to find some other solution to my problem...
I'm guessing this might be some sort of a problem with commons-binutils (although public void setFoos(String key, String[] foos) isn't a valid javabeans setter so maybe it's just a bit out of it's scope).
At 16:44 07.03.2005, you wrote:
This works fine for list-backed form items (which we also use) but in this case I need something like
public void setFoos(String key, String[] foos)
is this possible?
There are several workarounds I can think of, but this appears to be the cleanest solution if I can make it work.
