Indexed list validation

[Václavík Radek <Ra...@zentiva.cz>]

Hi all,

this is probably a constantly discussed topic and I have surely found a load
of inromation concerning this,but it still did not solve my problem.

I have a web page which displays multiple records, each record representing
one person. I am using index to retrieve each record.

The person is represented by bean Person:

public class Person {
	.
	.
	private int monthlySalary;

	public int getMonthlySalary() {
		return monthlySalary;
	}
	public void setMonthlySalary(int monthlySalary) {
		this.monthlySalary = monthlySalary;
	}
	.
	.
}


I use this form for the action called:

public final class PersonalForm extends ValidatorForm{
	.
	.
	private List persons;

	public Person getPersons(int index) {
		return (Person)persons.get(index);
	}
	public void setPersons(int index, Person value) {
		persons.set(index, value);
	}
	.
	.
}

and in the JSP, it looks like this:

<logic:iterate id="person" name="personalForm" property="persons"
indexId="index">
	.
	.
<html:text name="personalForm"
property='<%="persons["+index+"].monthlySalary"%>'
styleClass="monthlySalary"/>
	.
	.
</logic:iterate>

Everything works just fine. What doesn't work is the validation.

I have validation.xml looking like this:

<form name="personalForm">
			<field property="monthlySalary"
					indexedListProperty="persons"
					depends="integer">
			<arg0	key="errors.integer"/>
			</field>
</form>


When the page is loaded, i get the following exception in Tomcat:

ERROR: in validateField
java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Unknown property 'monthlySalary'
        at
org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils.getSimpleProperty(Property
Utils.java:1175)
        at
org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils.getNestedProperty(Property
Utils.java:772)
	.
	.


Where am I making mistake?

Thanks for suggetions.

Radek
