Hi
I have a dataTable where the data is a list of objects...
now if in my table, i have something like this:
<h:dataTable .... var="currentRow">
<h:column ...>
<h:outputText ... value="#{currentRow.unitPrice}"/>
the objects in the list associated with the table have a method
public Double getUnitPrice(){
...
}
but there is no unitPrice property, and no setUnitPrice(...) method.
The getUnitPrice method calculates the unit price from some other
properties.
It is working fine with no problem so far... but I like to know if this
is ok or if this could cause any unforseen problems in some other
situation or in an app server different than what i am currently using.
thanks
In other words... does the property that i bind to the outputText have
to be a real bean property with a getter and a setter? or could it be
just a getter (like what i showed in the example above) without the
actual property and the setter.
and to put the question in another form, is what i did a normal thing to
do? or did it work just by coincidence?
thanks
