I believe Tim is referring to what is defined in section 8.3.3 of the JavaBeans spec, "Indexed properties", which states: ----- Thus an indexed property "foo" might be represented by four accessor methods: public Bah[] getFoo(); public void setFoo(Bah a[]); public Bah getFoo(int a); public void setFoo(int a, Bah b); ----- IMO, what Tim is trying should work. I'd put the failure down to a buggy introspection implementation, although it's possible that dropping in a later version of Commons BeanUtils might work around it. -- Martin Cooper > > WLS = "WebLogic Server". > > -----Original Message----- > From: Slattery, Tim - BLS [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 12:35 PM > To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' > Subject: RE: Problem with tags and overloaded methods > > > > Just so it's clear, I'm assuming that you have the "get" > > method overloaded, with the same method name being used for > > two different properties (even if you consider them the same > > conceptual property). > > > I would guess that's always a bad idea. > > Huh?
