This example relates how to _implement_ things in your own taglibs. It doesn't mention Maps at all (the part I'm being befuddled by). It's not even specific to struts.
Actually, all I need is a reference on usage of the struts taglibs beyond the foo.bar.baz example. I want to see how one can refer to Maps contained in beans like Martin explained: <bean:message name="user" property="en.message"/> I have to admit, I found this confusing also because in my User object (session key as "user") there would be a map of UserData objects. The above example doesn't mention userdata at all, so I'm guessing Martin meant this: <bean:message name="user" property="en.UserData.message"/> But in the interest of saving bandwidth, just the reference on how to get to maps within beans. > -----Original Message----- > From: Martin Gainty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Sunday, December 07, 2003 10:59 PM > To: Struts Users Mailing List; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Stupid Bean tricks > > > a complete example on how to use this concept is located at > http://www.orionserver.com/tutorials/taglibs/8.html > viel Glueck, > Martin > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Joe Hertz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "'Struts Users Mailing List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Sunday, December 07, 2003 5:58 PM > Subject: RE: Stupid Bean tricks > > > > Martin- > > > > Can you point me to the correct docs for how this works?
