Form Bean Properties not being set when form is submitted
---------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: STR-3114
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/STR-3114
             Project: Struts 1
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.3.5
         Environment: MS/UNIX on Tomcat/Weblogic
            Reporter: Apoorva Rais


I have a action form which has structure like
FORM_A( attribute1<String>, attribute2<Date>,....., attributeN 
<LinkedHashMap<<String>,<BeanB>>)  ->   where BeanB has its own 
attributes(attributeA, attributeB....)
I get all these data from data service and I am using logic-iterate/jstl tags 
in jsp to display Map attribute of FORM_A. Display part works fine. 
Now the problem is if the user updates ones of the attributes for BeanB  in UI 
(say attributeB, which is a float), the values are not getting populated in 
BeanB. I think the problem is the way it keeps the name is just name of the 
bean-attribute and it doesn't know which attribute goes in which bean on the 
Map. Right now I am using {indexed="true"} property and manually getting those 
values from request and setting those in bean. Can we have one more attribute 
other than indexed which can tell BeanUtils that use index number to determine 
the location of the bean in the collection <assuming or verifying that its a 
ordered collection> and automatically set value for the attributes in the Bean?
This will reduce lot of work for all grid kind of developments when we have a 
ordered/editable list situation. Please let me know if there's already a way to 
do this in struts 1 or struts 2 ?
