Yes, I considered that, but I need the values to persist. The only data
in the bean that needs to change in the bean is the data that corresponds
to the form fields. Perhaps the answer is to have several beans that
expire every request, but if you need to persist the data, you still end up
copying all of the elements from one spot to another. So I'm still left
with the question of Is auto-assigning worth the trouble.

Please respond
to tomcat-user
If you don't want the values to persist, don't put the bean in the
"session"
scope. Try "page" or "request" and then it will get new values each time.

Subject: What is the value of auto-assigning beans?
This question may be asked out of ignorance, but it seems to me that using
the tag:
<jsp:useBean id="MyBean" scope="session" class="Test.MyBean" />
<jsp:setProperty name="MyBean" property="*" />
to assign values from form fields to the bean is of limited use.
Let's assume that there are 2 text fields, A and B on Jsp1.jsp, with B
being required. I have some code that checks to make sure B is populated,
if it's not, the browser returns to Jsp1.jsp.
The problem I run into is that I can populate A with a value, submit the
form, get returned to Jsp1.jsp, delete A and populate B, submit the form,
and continue. I how have values for both A and B, even though A was blank.
I suspect that I'm not the first person to ask this question, is there an
obvious solution that I missed, if not, what do other people do to get
around this problem; do all of the assignements by hand?
Thanks.
