It appears that it could be because you've nested "through" this property, and
actually invoking something within your CallHistoryInfoItem returned at the given
index.
If you're using a nested property (eg: "monkey.bunch[i].banana"), what it will do, is
call all the getters down the line, and only call the setter on the last bean. For
example, Struts will call the bean and use the getter method to get at the monkey bean
(the "monkey" property). Then, it will call the indexed getter to get at the right
bunch bean (the "bunch[i]" property). From this bunch bean, will call the setter on
the banana property to set the value. So just keep in mind that the setter is only
called on the last bean property.
I only say all this as it looks like your CallHistoryInfoItem is a bean in a nested
structure, and the setter will be called later somewhere in the line.
Hope this gets you out of your problem.
