freemarker not able to render a Javabean inside javabean

Hi,


I have a EmployeeDTO class with a getter, setter for AddressDTO class where
AddressDTO class contains a list of addresses.

when i am trying to display the Employee address information i am getting an
exception. please help!
My code goes like this:

  class EmployeeDTO{

      private AddressDTO addressDTO;

 getAddressDTO() {...}
setAddressDTO(){....}

and other fields goes here...
}
class AddressDTO{

      private List<String> addresses;

 getAddresses() {...}
setAddresses(){....}

and other fields goes here...
}


struts action class:

class MyAction extends Action{
	
    public ActionForward execute(
            ActionMapping mapping,
            ActionForm form,
            HttpServletRequest req,
            HttpServletResponse resp) throws Exception {
    	
// getting employee info from DB
    		req.setAttribute("employeeDTO", employeeDTO);
}

template code:

<table>
<tr><td>${employeeDTO.name}<td></tr>
<#list employeeDTO.addressDTO.addresses as address>
<tr><td>${address}<td></tr>
</#list>
</table>


Page is printing Employee Name but giving following exception:

Expression employeeDTO.addressDTO is undefined on line 15, column 19 in
Employee.ftl.
The problematic instruction:
----------
==> ${employeeDTO.addressDTO.addresses} [on line 15, column 17 in
Employee.ftl]
----------

Java backtrace for programmers:
----------
freemarker.core.InvalidReferenceException: Expression employeeDTO.addressDTO
