Hi,

I am relatively new to the beans world. I have an action class where I am retrieving values from a database and putting the values in a bean which has 'n' no. of properties (since there are n columns per row of the db). Now I am putting these beans in an ArrayList and this list I am passing to a jsp where the values can be printed. Here are code snippets
I am not using DAO yet so please, do not refer to it.

jsp:

Here, the functions of the bean are visible and I do not want that. How can I use beans to solve the problem.

Hi,

Could you please clarify the question, do you mean the method of the EJB is visible in the JSP, and you don't want that? Could you post the code of the EJB?

For info you can use the <%= %> notation in the JSP, which is lighter than <% out.println(); %>

For example the following line

can be written:

I'm going to assume jobList is created in a servlet and just used in a JSP. If not, please look up the MVC pattern for why your JSP should not call an EJB or database directly.

Both of which are not recommended for new code. JSTL/EL is better because then you don't have any scriptlets in the JSP.

Ya I do not want the get method to be visible in the jsp and jobList is an arraylist in the servlet which consists of several beans.

I tried using beans like this in my jsp

But, it says "cannot find property Key"....

Am I not writing the bean part correctly because, I checked on various sites and this is how they mentioned it.
