Struts2 tags behaviour customizable? isXyz() instead of getXyz()
Hi,
Struts 2 tags have value attribute where name of property is used to read the value from the bean. If the property is lets say xyz, tag looks for getXyz(). Is this possible to customize that so that instead of getXyz(), it looks for isXyz()? My boolean property has accessors which starts with isXyz() instead of getXyz().
Thx

The JavaBean specification only talks about boolean properties; it
doesn't mention Boolean (section 8.3.2). But rather than messing with an
'adapter' sub-class, I would consider either (a) creating a BeanInfo
class or (b) simply living with it and just being explicit in OGNL
expressions like so:
<s:checkbox name="xyz" label="xyzLabel" value="%{#myBean.isXyz()}"
required="true" tooltip="xyzTooltip"/>
i.e. use method-call rather than simple property syntax.

Ask not what the framework can do for you, but what you can do for the
framework ... it's Friday. Seriously though, if you need to provide
a getMyBoolean, and you can't modify the original class, you can just
provide a wrapper to translate getMyBoolean to isMyBoolean. If it's a
public class as I think the JavaBean spec requires it to be, you can
just extend it, otherwise you need a delegator for not just this
property but all the others. Anyway, it's not really clear that this
is what you need anyway, so this is just more speculation.

David,
It is a Boolean property but I still think it should work no matter whether it is boolean or Boolean. APIs I am using are not mine so I can't change the bean, but there are workaround I can put in although they aren't pretty. I was hoping something can be done on the framework (Struts2) side.
Thx.

Is it boolean, or Boolean? I've seen situations where I was hoping
isX would return a reference to a Boolean (when reference with
JavaBean dot notation), but I had to implement a getX instead. Just 2
cents.

Are you sure that "myBean" is not null?

Re: Struts2 tags behaviour customizable? isXyz() instead of getXyz()
Posted by akash agrawal <ak...@yahoo.co.uk>.
Here is my JSP snippet. isXyz() does not work for me. What am I doing incorrectly?
<s:set name="myBean" value="myBeanObject"></s:set>
<s:checkbox name="xyz" label="xyzLabel" value="%{#myBean.xyz}" required="true" tooltip="xyzTooltip"/>
Thx.

Struts 2(OGNL technically speaking) will call getX() or isX() if one
of them exist, when "y.x" is evaluated.
