JSTL and enums

[Matthew Fisher]

Hi everyone,

I have been given the enjoyable job of converting our jsp files from
scriplet code to jstl and I have come accross this problem. I need to
convert the following line:
<%=TransactionType.newLine.getName()%>

Naturally TransactionType was already imported, so I've set the enum list to
the pageContext with the following:
List transactionTypes = TransactionType.getEnumList();
pageContext.setAttribute("transactionTypes",  transactionTypes);

but I'm not sure where to go from here.

Below is the class TransactionType for a clearer picture. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

Matthew

public class TransactionType extends ValuedEnum {
        public static final TransactionType newLine = new
TransactionType("New Line", 1);
        public static final TransactionType packChange = new
TransactionType("Pack Change", 2);
        public static final TransactionType priceChange = new
TransactionType("Price Change", 3);

        private TransactionType(String name, int value) {
                super(name, value);
        }

        public static TransactionType getEnum(String name) {
                return (TransactionType) getEnum(TransactionType.class,
name);
        }

        public static TransactionType getEnum(int value) {
                return (TransactionType) getEnum(TransactionType.class,
value);
        }

        public static Map getEnumMap() {
                return getEnumMap(TransactionType.class);
        }

        public static List getEnumList() {
                return getEnumList(TransactionType.class);
        }

        public static Iterator iterator() {
                return iterator(TransactionType.class);
        }

}
