One more little thing you might want to consider: through the
BeanInfo,
a nice JSP aware HTML editor could also propose you a list of
possible
get/set methods you can use in your tags while composing your JSP
pages.
Just start typing a tag in your editor, and a list of accessible
methods
along with their descriptions pops up and lets you pick the one you
want.
Would not that be nice??? I sure would love to see that
someday...
