How can I useStruts bean:write tag with parameter

Question

Helow i'm using Struts tags for reading data from beans
for example:
public String getUserName(){
return name;
in the jsp:
<bean:write name="userInfoBean" property="userName"/>
but i have a getter with paramer as this:
public String getUserName(String id){
return getNameById(id);
How can i write the tag in the jsp???

Answer 1

You can't directly.
Your method MUST have the signature public String getUserName() in order to be identified as an attribute of the bean, accessed via the bean:write tag.
One workaround is to set the "id" as a separate property, and then use that attribute in the getUserName method.
ie
int id;
public void setUserId(int newId){
  this.id = newId;
public String getUserName(){
  return getUserName(id);
}
