Pardon me for jumping into this thread...
Once you use bean:define, is it possible to change the value?
I wanted to use bean:define like this:
<bean:define id="resultsEmpty" value="true"/>
<logic:iterate id="code" name="myForm" property="codeList" type="Foo">
<bean:define id="resultsEmpty" value="false"/>
<bean:write name="code" property="desc"/>
</logic:iterate>
<logic:equal property="resultsEmpty" value="true">
No records found.
</logic:equal>
This didn't work. It barfed on the second bean:define, but I have a feeling
the logic:equal won't work either.

You'll need to do this:
<bean:define id="cost"><<mytaglib:getvalue name="cost" /></bean:define>
<logic:empty name="cost">
FREE
</logic:empty>
<logic:notEmpty name="cost">
<bean:write name="cost"/>
</logic:notEmpty>
To test if a value is empty, you need to have something to test against.
Since your tag is just writing out the value, you need to capture that value
first, by defining a bean for it. Since the value of your output will never
be null, you cannot use <logic:present> to check it; you need to use
<logic:empty> instead.
