When a managed bean is created that has as properties other beans, do these bean properties get instantiated as well? For example, I have a bean UserBean with a property Center that is itself a bean. There are getCenter and setCenter methods. When a new UserBean is instantiated will Center also be instantiated or will it remain null?
When my JSP renders there is a selectOneMenu that is used to set the value of userBean.center.centerId but I keep recieving an error message that leads me to believe that center is null. I tried to instantiate center in a constructor and in the getCenter method but neither method worked. Thanks, -Mark
