1. Don't mix your terms. An attribute is a value you push into the request
scope or
session scope - it is accessible from your JSP code. The CurrencyValueList is
a class,
extending an ActionForm containing a variable of type List.
You are on the right track though, since we pushed the form bean into the
request (and
in essence the form bean is not a type of List) we do need to use the 'property'
parameter to access the list.
<logic:iterate name="cvList" property="entries" id="cv" type="CurrencyValue">

You don't need to import it.
You don't need to specify it as a form bean unless it is part of a JSP page
where the
end-user will enter data to populate the form. If you are only displaying
values then no
form-bean definition is required.
In my apps the 'type' is always declared fully, for example:
<logic:iterate name="cvList" property="entries" id="cv"
type="com.abc.website.controller.form.CurrencyValue">
