HI

I want to use Map in my AcionMap class.What i have written is :

In JSP file:
<html:text property="value(name)"/>

In ActionForm class:
Map map = null;
public Object getValue(String key)
{
return map.get(key);
}

public void setValue(String key , String value)
{
map.put(key , value);
}

public Map getMap() {
return map;
}

and in Action class i write:
String name = (String)testForm.getValue("name");

but now at this place 'name' is coming to be null.
What mistake i am making.

Thanks
Regards
Gaurav

public void setMap(Map map) {
this.map = map;
}

Above syntax is wrong. in property attribute you can not specify argument along with method/property name.




In ActionForm class:
Map map = null;
public Object getValue(String key)
{
return map.get(key);
}

public void setValue(String key , String value)
{
map.put(key , value);
}

public Map getMap() {
return map;
}

and in Action class i write:
String name = (String)testForm.getValue("name");

but now at this place 'name' is coming to be null.

Again you can not have getter methods with parameters in form bean. And setter method should have only one parameters. I mean you can have them in any format but for struts to invoke using reflection, these methods have to be in above mentioned format only.

Advisable solution would be to get map object using getMap() and then call get() on this map object.
