RE: Model doesn't get initialized?

Do you know about the JavaBean spec? This is pretty standard Java stuff...

Ok.. I got a bit further now (it actually works) but I am still confused...

I did the following to my example-code:

- Renamed Perform() to perform() (whoooo!!)
- Added to the perform method:
    this.setName(this.getCtx().getRequest().getParameter("first_name"));

Now, I discovered that in my class I actually have a private String Name
(mind the capital N!)

From the JSP I can get to the value through <c:out value="${model.name}"/>
and NOT through <c:out value="${model.Name}"/>..... is that behaviour I
should expect?

Anyway, it works now and for the time being I'll just keep all my fields
lowercase to not get mixed up with the $model references from the JSP's....

Stephan.

try
<c:out value="${model.name}" /> in the .jsp file

Subject: [Mav-user] Model doesn't get initialized?


Hi there!

I am trying to create a simple example application, using the friendbook as
an example. The framework seems to work fine, including LOG4J. I do have a
lot of problems when I try to get a controller to work. I have something
like this:

package com.maverick.controllers;
import org.infohazard.maverick.ctl.ThrowawayBean2;

public class TestController extends ThrowawayBean2
{
  private String name;

  public String getname() { return this.name; }
  public void setname(String s) { this.name = s; }

  public String Perform()
  {
    return "success";
  }
}

In the maverick.xml I have something like this:

<command name="submitname">
  <controller class="com.maverick.controllers.TestController" />
  <view name="success" path="testform.jsp"/>
</command>

In my testform.jsp I try to read the value from the model like so:

<c:out value="${model.test}" />

...and now for the weird part (and also my question)....

NOTHING comes out of the model! Am I overseeing something or doing something
wrong?? I spent an entire evening trying to figure out how to get this to
work, no success. I even tried to explicitly fill the model in the
controller using the setModel method.... nothing happens.... I have
absolutely no clue ... can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance!

Stephan.
