On our webwork project, we're successfully using this (copied directly from the JSP):
<ww:if test="caseType == 'SG'"> where caseType is an bean property (from a list of beans being iterated over) that will be "SG" if the 'if' tag contents should be rendered. However, I think this might be a case of an interned string, so it would be better to use .equals which should work equally well. (We are using .equals in other places, but only to check if the string is blank) Tom On 1/23/07, Wesley Wannemacher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
When I read your message, it occurred to me that OGNL couldn't know what type `addrType' was because my Action is only a stub. #parameters is a magical variable containing all of the request parameters, so I hadn't thought of making getters/setters on my Action before. So, I added a getAddrType() and setAddrType(String) then tried again. I went through the whole gambit of syntaxes and I still can't find one that works. If I'm using the correct syntax, let me know because it could just be a bad set of struts jars (which I can replace). -Wes > -----Original Message----- > From: Tom Schneider [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2007 1:50 PM > To: Struts Users Mailing List > Subject: Re: [s2] String comparison with OGNL > > #parameters.addrType is of type String correct?
