Pls help me writing logic:iterate tag in jsp page

Question

Hey guys , I am struck in retriving string p1,p2,p3 in the jsp page
Pls have a look ata the code
In DAO class:-
StdprdDAO.java
Public arrayList getPFP()
ArrayList a = new ArrayList();
While(rs.next())
     columnsVO colVO = new columnsVO;
     colVO.setProduct(rset.getString(1));//will store in String colProduct
     colVO.setFamily(rset.getString(2));//will store in String colFamily
colVO.setPrice(rset.getString(3));//will store in String colPrice
a.add(colVO);
return a;
In Action Class:-
ArrayList final = null;
StdprdDAO DAO = new stdprdDAO();
final = DAO.getPFP();
For(int i = 0; final !=null && i<final.size() ; i++)
     columnsVO VO = null;
     VO = (columnsVO)final.get(i);
     String p1 = (String) VO.getProduct();
     String p2 = (String) VO.getFamily();
     String p3 = (String) VO.getPrice();
     Request.setAttribute(“p1”,p1);
     Request.setAttribute(“p2”,p2);
     Request.setAttribute(“p3”,p3);
In JSP PAGE:-
id = “columnsVO”>
<bean:write name = “columnsVO” property=”final” id=”p1”>
but still I am doubting my above sentences in jsp page ,so pls correct them if possible.
Instead of l;ogic:iterate can I use directly getattribute(“p1”)? <logic:iterate
Still I m doubting I can not utilize columnsVO file in logic:iterate, I can utilize only formbean file.
So pls help me with this.

Answer 1

May I ask why have you done it?
If it is related to printing of the list then it is of no use.But it IS of use. The objects compEmployees is in scope.
It has the list we want to print out.
With logic:iterate:
<table>
     <tr>
       <th>Number</th>
       <th>Employee</th>
     </tr>
     <logic:iterate name="compEmployees" property="totalEmps" id="emp">
          <tr>
            <td>
              <bean:write name="emp" property="empNo"/>
            </td>
            <td>
              <bean:write name="emp" property="empName"/>
            </td>
          </tr>
     </logic:iterate>
</table>or alternatively with JSTL and c:forEach
<table>
     <tr>
       <th>Number</th>
       <th>Employee</th>
     </tr>
     <c:forEach items="${compEmployees.totalEmps}" var="emp">
          <tr>
            <td>
              <c:out value="${emp.empNo}"/>
            </td>
            <td>
              <c:out value="${emp.empName}"/>
            </td>
          </tr>
     </c:forEach>
</table>Cheers,
