[S2]Accessing a Bean within a Bean in my jsp

[Skip Hollowell <sk...@skipdaddy.com>]

I am not sure if this is possible, but can I access a bean within a 
bean, and grab fields from it within my jsp? 

The AccountBean named account has a Customer Bean named customer, and I 
want the first name of that Customer.
<s:property value="account.customer.firstName"/> returns null every time.

I know that the account is set (see it in the debugger), that it has a 
valid Customer object and I can access a more simple field
<s:property value="account.acctNumber"/> from the page no problem.


Any ideas?

s2 app reload

["Hartrich, James CTR USTRANSCOM J6" <Ja...@ustranscom.mil>]

I want to add a new namespace to the struts.xml on the fly. Is there a
way to detect this change and reload the app context? I'm trying to
avoid reloading the app in the tomcat manager.

Struts 1.3: Reset form values to previous state

["Chaudhary, Harsh" <HC...@amfam.com>]

Hi,

I am using Struts 1.3. We have several strust forms which are
pre-populated from a database.

My questions is, if I want to provide the user with a way to reset the
form to the initial values which were populated from the database. Is
there any API or method calls for that. 

Automagic...FTW.

Yes, you can, and I do it all the time. Sometimes with multiple levels of
nesting (ie: order -> order line item -> order shipment join -> shipment
line item -> shipment header -> transport orders)

I assume your action or model has a getAccount() method on it, and account
has a getCustomer() method, etc.?

Not really. Just make sure you've got your getX() methods all the way down
the chain. Also put lots of <s:property value="..." /> tags down the chain
and see where it breaks.
