Why not use foo.isValid() or is the format foo.valid something special with
respect to taglibs?

Subject: trouble with bean returning boolean


Hello all,

I have trouble getting a very simple bean (o'reilly book example)  to 
return boolean values.  I call it with:

<c: choose>
        <c:when test="${foo.valid}">

...


and the validation code in the bean looks like:

public boolean isValid(){
        return true;
        }


This generates the following error message:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: An 
error occurred while evaluating custom action attribute "test" with 
value "${foo.valid}": Unable to find a value for "valid" in object of 
class "foobar.FooBarBean" using operator "." (null)

Everything works fine with method getName which returns a String that 
I can output with c:out.

anyone?

thanks
