I want to create a cudtom jsp tag which accesses a Vector object in the request scope
and displays it in a specified format.
So i wrote a tld with a single attribute name
and my setName method looks like
private String name;
public void setName(String name)
{
this.name=name;
}
and i tried to access the object in my doStartTag like
Vector v=(Vector)pageContext.getRequest().getAttribute(name);
but the resultant vector is null
but i am getting the name string correctly
my java code is
package com.c2rmnet.struts.taglib;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.servlet.jsp.JspWriter;
import javax.servlet.jsp.JspException;
import javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.TagSupport;
import java.util.List;
/**

*/
public class TableFormat extends TagSupport {
//JspWriter writer=pageContext.getOut();
private String name;
public TableFormat()
{
}
public int doStartTag() throws JspException
{
int i=0;
java.lang.Object
table=(java.lang.Object)pageContext.getRequest().getAttribute("test");
String cls;//=(pageContext.getClass()).toString();
/**while(i<=table.size())
{*/
try{cls=String.valueOf(table);}catch (Exception
e){cls=e.toString();}
try {
pageContext.getOut().write("<h1><font
color=\"red\">"+cls+"<h1></font><br>");
} catch (IOException ioe) {
throw new
JspException(ioe.getMessage());
}
catch(Exception e){
try{
pageContext.getOut().write("Some
Exception"+e.toString());
}catch(Exception t){}
}
// i++;
//}
return EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE;
}
public void setName(String name)
{
this.name=name;
}
}
wat is the problem
also suggest some examples which suits this context
vinu
