But, fundamentally, it's not totally different from how yo access properties using PropertyUtils, where you might say: MyBean bean = ...; String name = PropertyUtils.getSimpleProperty(bean, "name"); you would instead say MyBean bean = ...; // Must implement DynaBean String name = bean.get("name"); One very nice feature is that PropertyUtils has been enhanced to understand DynaBeans internally, so you can actually use *either* syntax in your application. That way, all the Struts tags that already use PropertyUtils will be able to auto-magically work with DynaBeans as well. Look for a check-in of DynaActionForm (so that you can define the properties of form beans without having to create a Java clas for every one) real soon now ... > Will > Craig -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
