Hi, I have a bean in my
jsp and one of it's properties is a hashmap of objects. I'd like to go over the hashmap and check whether a particular key exists.
Struts is also involved here, but I do not believe
that Struts is causing any problems.
The key/values are placed in the hashmap as follows:
hMap = new HashMap(20);
while ( rs.next() ) {
fRoles = new FormRoles();
fRoles.setFormName(rs.getString("FormName").trim());
fRoles.setCreate( ( rs.getInt("C")==1)? true:false );
fRoles.setRead( ( rs.getInt("R")==1)? true:false );
fRoles.setUpdate( ( rs.getInt("U")==1)? true:false );
fRoles.setDelete( ( rs.getInt("D")==1)? true:false );
hMap.put(rs.getString("FormName"), fRoles);
} //while
user.setFormRoles( hMap);
In the above code I place the FormRoles objects into the hashmap with
a
String as the key. I should be able to retrieve the objects with a
String literal. Ie. if the form name is "manager", get("manager") will return the corresponding FormRole object. I should be able to say containsKey("manager") and get "true". That is not what's happening:
Here is my JSP:

fRoles.containsKey("manager") returns false
NOT Found
This tells me that I have a valid hashmap object. Notice that fRoles.containsKey("manager") return false. Why???
Also notice "NOT Found" that comes from <c:when test= '<% fRoles.get("manager") != null %> '>.
Someone on google suggested that there are trailing white spaces. So made sure I had fRoles.setFormName(rs.getString("FormName").trim());
I also tried when
test with "manager ".
Nothing works. I'd appreciate if you could help me.
Thanks in advance.
