No, thats not what I meant. Sorry, if I wasnt clear enough. What I meant was: I execute a sql query, it could return any number of columns and they could be anything from multiple tables. So the result of the sql query is not predictable. And so I cannot create POJO classes with getters/setters for the result that will be returned. So I have a list with the results I want to display but no getters/setters for the properties. But at runtime, I do have the property names I want to display.
For eg: In my .jsp page I write something like <display:table name="test"> <display:column property="id" title="ID" /> <display:column property="name" /> </display:table> But I do not have getters for id and name, will it work? Obviously the best thing is to test it out. I was busy doing other stuff for the project, so I thought I will atleast put my question out there in case display tag doesnt work in this situation and anybody knows a solution to it, a solution other than creating a dynamic object with the getters. Thanks for your help.
