The 'name' comes from the accessor methods your controller has. In your example lets
say that your 'obj' has a method called getFirstName() Now if you want to display the
persons first name you simple have a call like this in your JSP
<c:out value="${model.object1.firstName}"/>
AND your controller, whichever one is associated with this JSP has an accessor method
like this
public Object1Type getObject1()
{
return
(Object1Type)this.getCtx().getRequest().getSession().getAttribute("object1");
}
