First of all, it appears that you hit "Reply" when you wrote this note.  If you
have a new note to write, don't use "Reply".  Many mail clients can thread
notes with the original note.  If you write a new note as a Reply to another
note, it will often get lost.

On your issue, you're misunderstanding how "jsp:useBean" and the "class"
attribute work.  The value of the "class" attribute is the fully-qualified name
of a class.  You can't specify a class and a method, or any variation.  The
given class will be used to call the constructor to create an instance of the
class.  You can't use singletons like this.

However, if you let "jsp:useBean" create the instance of the class and place it
into session scope, you get essentially the same behavior.  You might even
consider using "application" scope.

Hi, I'm using struts framework and I was trying to load a singleton class
that will hold my dropdown list of state in my jsp.

StateLookup is a singleton class.


I'm using the  so that I can use these struts tag lib
 


  


Am I doing it the wrong way? Your input will be greatly appreciated.
