Hi,
Just curious... did someone already did a an application tool that can do
dynamic evaluation of the bean properties ?
Basically what I would like to do is:
#set ($properties = [ "X", "Y", "Z" ] )
#set ($result = $tool.evaluate($bean, $properties) )
so this is similar to:
#set ($result = [ $bean.X, $bean.Y, $bean.Z ] )
This would be particulary useful for a collection of entries, so that the
creation is factorized and that i can call a single macro to display the
list:
#macro (makeList $headings $properties $entries)
<table>
<tr>
#foreach($heading in $headings)
<th nowrap>$heading</th>
#end
</tr>
#foreach($entry in $entries)
<tr>
#set ($result = $tool.evaluate($entry, $properties) )
#foreach ($data in $result)
<td>$data</td>
#end
</tr>
#end
</table>
#end
For now, I'm forced to pre-evaluate the data and to pass them to a macro as
follows:
#set ( $data = [] )
#foreach ($entry in $entries)
#set ($elem = ["$entry.X", "$entry.Y", "$entry.Z"])
#set ($dummy = $data.add($elem) )
#end
#makeList($headings $data)
Maybe there's a better way, but I can't figure out...
Thanks.
