<p>
The "struts-bean" tag library contains JSP custom tags useful in defining new beans (in any desired scope) from a variety of possible sources, as well as a tag to
render a particular bean (or bean property) to the output response.
</p>
<p>
This tag library contains tags useful in accessing beans and their properties, as well as defining new beans (based on these
accesses) that are accessible to the remainder of the page via scripting variables and page scope attributes. Convenient
mechanisms to create new beans based on the value of request cookies, headers, and parameters are also provided.
