Ahh, not being much of a web programmer, I forgot that radio buttons with
value "1" really return a string with value "1". So that would explain it.
Silly me. :-0
This works:
$condText.get($query.conditionAsInt)
if I convert to an Integer in the Hashtable $query in my Java code.
It sort of destroys the symmetry of not playing with the form data coming in
with the HttpRequest.getParameter, since I was just stuffing it in the
Hashmap. So that brings up the following question:
Q1) Is there a way, in the template itself, to do conversions?
For example #set ($i = $query.cond - 1) followed by $arr.get($i) doesn't
work.
Is there a math.toInt($query.cond) tool?
Unrelated, but just as valuable to know:
Q2)
$query.conditionAsInt is an Integer object
$arr.get($query.conditionAsInt - 1) fails.
Are we supposed to be able to embed expressions in parameter lists?
#set ($i = $query.conditionAsInt - 1) followed by $arr.get($i) works in this
case, but the expression can't be dropped in as a parameter.
Here is what I was able to do just now :
My template :
#set($arr = ["a","b","c"])
#set($foo = 1)
$arr.get(1)
$arr.get($foo)
$arr.get($one)
$arr.get($provider.getInt() )
$arr.get($provider.getInteger() )
$arr.get($provider.int )
$arr.get($provider.integer)
Where in my test program :
context.put("one", new Integer(1) );
and in the test provider (see org.apache.velocity.test.misc and environs...)
public int getInt()
{
return 1;
}
public Integer getInteger()
{
return new Integer(1);
}
my output :
b
b
b
b
b
b
b
So things seem fine. This was done with the 20010213 nightly snapshot under
WinNT w/ jdk1.3
Take a look and see what the return type of '$query.cond' is....
