Select tag on freemarker

Hello,

In JSP, I could do the following:

<s:set name="entityTypeList" 
value="%{#{'CST':'Customer','SPL':'Supplier','OTH':'Other'}}"/>
<s:select  name="entity.entityType" value="%{entity.entityType}"  
list="entityType"  emptyOption="true" />

How can I  do the same using FreeMarker ?

I get errors if I try this:

<@s.set name="entityTypeList" 
value="%{#{'CST':'Customer','SPL':'Supplier','OTH':'Other'}}" />
<@s.select name="entity.entityType"  value="%{entity.entityType}" 
list="entityTypeList" emptyOption="true"/>

or this:
<@s.set name="entityTypeList" 
value="#{'CST':'Customer','SPL':'Supplier','OTH':'Other'}" />

and the list is not populated if I try this:

<#assign entityTypeList = {"CST":"Customer", "SPL":"Supplier" } >


Note: If I change entityTypeList for a OGNL List (not a hashmap), all 
works file.


I am using struts 2.0.9 and freemarker 2.3.8 on tomcat 5.5.20.

Thanks in advance for any help.
Bests,

Re: Select tag on freemarker

Hello,

For anyone interested...
After several searches (and some sleeping too :-)), I've finally found a 
possible solution - to use the freemarker "r" (raw) prefix:

<@s.set name="entityTypeList" value=r'#{"CST":"Customer", 
"SPL":"Supplier" }' />
<@s.select name="entity.entityType"  value="%{entity.entityType}" 
list="entityTypeList" emptyOption="true"/>

Found this post to the mailing list: 
http://www.nabble.com/Can-anyone-explain-the-leading-%22r%22-in-OGNL-list-syntax--tf4349553.html#a12395847 
, and also some info on 
http://www.jroller.com/cdaniluk/entry/webwork_and_freemarker_part_deux .

Unfortunatelly, the docs. on 
http://struts.apache.org/2.0.11/docs/freemarker-tags.html does not refer 
this...

Bests,
