Hi,
I've been fiddling around with retrieving info from a custom built object.
For clarity I'll explain the object here:
Class Person {
private Hashtable cocoonTraits;
private String ID;
....
public String getID() { return ID; }
public Map getTraits() { return cocoonTraits; }
}
Class CocoonTrait {
private Hashtable cocoonTraits;
private Hashtable cocoonValues;
private String name;
....
public String getName() { return name; }
public Map getTraits() { return cocoonTraits; }
public Map getValues() { return cocoonValues; }
}
Class CocoonValue {
private String name;
private Object value;
....
public String getName() { return name; }
public Object getValue() { return value; }
}
I've instantiated the above and added some values to the CocoonValue
objects. Then I want to display them:
<jx:template xmlns:jx="http://apache.org/cocoon/templates/jx/1.0";>
<html>
<head><title>A person</title></head>
<body>
<p>A person = ${person.ID} </p>
<table border="1">
<jx:forEach var="trait" select="${person.traits}">
<tr><td colspan="2">Trait = ${trait.name}</td></tr>
<jx:forEach var="value" select="${trait.values}">
<tr>
<td>${value.name}</td><td>${value.value}</td>
</tr>
</jx:forEach>
</jx:forEach>
</table>
<table border="1">
<jx:forEach select="#{person/traits}">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">#{./name}</td>
</tr>
<jx:forEach select="#{values}">
<tr>
<td>#{./name}</td><td>#{./value}</td>
</tr>
</jx:forEach>
</jx:forEach>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</jx:template>
The first table correctly shows all Trait names and all Value names and the
values of those that are filled in.
The second table only shows:
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">[EMAIL PROTECTED]</td>
</tr>
</table>
So either I've done something wrong in the syntax (which I cannot conclude
from the docs}, or there is something really wrong.
Bye, Helma
