Importing Bean Class to JSP

Hi here's my bean
import java.util.*;
public class leaveChange extends Object implements java.io.Serializable
     String Name;
     String Grade;
     String Pattern;
     int numDays;
     Date startDate;
     Date endDate;
Now to use this bean in my JSP page what do I do ?
I tried
<%@ page import="leaveChange"%>
but got following error
[javac] C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\work\Standalone\localhost\Devannualleave\newDev\advancedOptions_jsp.java:8: '.' expected
[javac] import leaveChange;
[javac] ^
[javac] 1 error
Thanks in advance

Update
changed Bean class to
package test;
import java.util.*;
public class leaveChange extends Object implements java.io.Serializable
     String Name;
     String Grade;
     String Pattern;
     int numDays;
     Date startDate;
     Date endDate;
JSP File
<%@ page import="test.leaveChange" %>
and have in my WEB-INF/classes/test
my Bean Class
but get the following error
[javac] C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\work\Standalone\localhost\Devannualleave\newDev\advancedOptions_jsp.java:8: package test does not exist
[javac] import test.leaveChange;
[javac] ^
[javac] 1 error
Any help ?

  • Importing beans to a jsp

    i am trying to get my jsp to find two compiled beans you could let me know if im missing something obvious I would be very grateful. My Application is set out in jakarta-tomcat-3.3 as:
    webapp/myJSPs/Hour16ex/WEB-INF/classes/com/myBeans
    In Hour16ex I have file radomPayroll.jsp which is supposed to call my to bean classes
    In myBeans are the bean classes Employee.class and RandomPeopleGenerator.class
    These are the lines in radomPayroll.jsp that is supposed to import the two bean files
    <jsp:useBean id="employee" class="com.myBeans.Employee" />
    <jsp:useBean id="randomNames" class="com.myBeans.RandomPeopleGenerator" />
    <%@ page import=" com.myBeans.*"%>
    and yet it cant find them.
    In autoexec.bat I have entered these lines
    set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;%CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib\servlet.jar
    set CATALINA_HOME=C:\jakarta-tomcat-3.3
    set JAVA_HOME=C:\JDK1.3.1_01
    I have also added jdk1.3.1_01 to the path in autoexec.bat
    Is there any other configuring necessary in order for my radomPayroll.jsp to find the bean file. Someone mentioned that I need to enter some lines into the server.xml file. Is this true?
    I am thinking that Hour16ex will be the root of my application and when searching for beans it will automatically look in WEB-INF/classes to find the packages without any extra configuration required.
    Thankyou

    Hi
    A quick suggestion: Change your application Directory structure to the following:
    You have: webapp/myJSPs/Hour16ex/WEB-INF/classes/com/myBeans
    Change it to somthing like:
    webapp/<APP-NAME>/WEB-INF/classes/com/myBeans
    |
    webapps
    |------<YOUR-APP-NAME-DIR>
              |
              |
              <JSP_FILES_SUBDIR>
              |
              |
              WEB-INF------
                   |
                   |
                   classes/com/myBeans
    This should get it to work.
    Keep us posted on your progress.

  • Can not call bean class from JSp/Tomcat 5.5

    hello everyone...
    i m using one bean class Parser which is called by discussion.jsp page. i put class file in webapps/grid/WEB-INF/classes and JSP page is in webapps/grid/. The whole combination is working fine for tomcat 3.3.2 but not working properly in tomcat 5.5.

    Thank in Advance

    You still need to import the class from the default package. As a word of advice you should put the class in a package. The later versions of Tomcat do not play well with bean classes that are not in packages.

  • How can i import my classes in jsp?

    Dear All,
    i want to access my classes in jsp. i am using apache tomcat
    server. let me know where i have to put my own packages and
    how can i use them in jsp.
    thanks

    Put them in directory /WEB-INF/classes under you webcontext. You can use them in your jsp by importing them or using the useBean directive.

  • Not able to import a class in jsp

    Hello.
    I want to import a custom java class (non-packaged) that resides in the same directory as the
    jsp file.
    I tried the page directive as:
    <%@ page import="MyClass.class" %>
    But Tomcat complains and doesn't compile.
    Shows the following error message:
    No identifier.
    What's wrong here? Is there another way to import a custom class?
    Please help. Thank you.

    You need to place your custom class in a package. Has to do with tomcat not giving you access to the default package.

    What You need to do is to place ShoppingBasket class in a package and import to fully qualified class name (which is class name with package name). I also discourage You to use scriptlets - it's an obsolete, old technology.

  • Cannot import Beans to index.jsp

    Hallo!
    I have created a simple Enterprise Application with 3 sessionbeans 3 entitybeans. The 3 entitybeans are in the Entities package and the 3 sessionbeans are in the businessSessionBeans package. If i try to import (lets say) the businessSessionBeans package into index.jsp I get the following error:
    org.apache.jasper.JasperException: PWC6033: Unable to compile class for JSP
    PWC6199: Generated servlet error:

    My include directive is:
    <%@ page import="businessSessionBeans.*" %>
    Can anyone tell me why I get this exception?
    Thaks!

    I also had this problem. The thing is that project directory should be in classpath environment variable. The loader won't know where to look for the package otherwise.

  • Cant find bean class from jsp page using Tomcat 4

    Hi
    I have searched numerpus forums and seen many posts from people who seem to have the same problem however none of the solutions seem to work for me.
    I have a jsp page which is trying to call a bean method however I get an error
    saying that the class for the bean cannot be found. I have :
    1. put the class in a package called kolaBean under
    C:\Program Files\Apache Tomcat 4.0\webapps\ROOT\begjsp-ch01\WEB-INF\classes\kolaPackage
    2. included the package statement in the java file for the bean
    3. included an empty constructor in the java file for the bean
    4. I have declared the above constructor as public (is this necessary?)
    5. used the full package name:
    kolaPackage.kolaBean bakedBean = new kolaPackage.kolaBean();
    6. imported import java.beans.*; (is this necessary ?)
    7. still got the same error...
    Any pointers really really appreciated
    Thanks
    Kola

    in reply to David Rons email:
    Is this a fresh install of tomcat? If so, it could be a configuration
    problem.Yes it is
    Is the class public in the package (I forget that all the time)?Yes it is. I have also declared the constructor to be public is this
    necessary?
    What's the error message?here is the error message:
    An error occurred between lines: 11 and 14 in the jsp file:

  • Import java-classes in JSP-page

    Hi,
    I'm starting with JSP and with trying one of the first examples in the book "beginning J2EE 1.4" from wrox, i got following problem.
    i'm trying to import a java-class in the package CH03 with
    <%@ page import="Ch03.FaqCategories" %>but he didn't find the package Ch03.
    I try already many things and i have no idea of the cause of the problem. So it's difficult to give information that leads to the solution.
    Maybe helpfull is the direcory-structure:
    jsp-page: /Ch03/welcome.jsp
    java-classe: /Ch03/WEB-INF/classes/Ch03/FaqCategories.class
    If you need source-codes or other information, just ask.
    Thanks,
    Dennis

    Thank you,
    Your help was one step into the good direction and that problem is solved.
    The application work now with studio one, but if i try it to work it with a stand-alone tomcat server it doesn't work anymore. I go first try to solve this problem by my self or at least try to describe the problem more exactly, before i ask for new help.
    but if you have any idea, that's always welcome...
    with regards,

  • Tomcat 4.1 Bean error (Unable to compile class for JSP)

    Help,
    I am using Tomcat 4.1 with with JDK1.3.1_01. I have a JSP page in which I try to use a Bean, but I get the following error from Tomcat.
    The JSP page is very simple. I am using package names in the import statement. Code below.
    I've put the class files under
    <TOMCAT>\webapps\projectname\WEB-INF\classes under the appropriate packages. What else is missing? I can not figure out what I am doing wrong.

    ***************** END TOMCAT ERROR MESSAGE *********************

    Hi
    I am running my Tomcat apps (on a Windows dev machine) in an alternate location (ie. not default webapps). The same crap comes to me every time. Unable to install etc. I have tried every trick in the book regarding classpath settings etc.
    When I use 'javap' to check the classpath from any location on my machine, its works and javap returns the signature of my class.
    When I use it though Tomcat (with the import set to include the filename), it get the error. I have heard rumors that using JDK 1.3 in stead of 1.4 helps, but I just want it to work with 1.4 :)
    So if any of you can help me on this, please.
    PS. On my linux server it works just fine, as does every other thing on that machine ;)

  • Importing classes into JSP page

    Hi There,
    I am new to this and here is my problem.
    I am doing a shopping cart tutorial and trying to get a JSP page to import two classes :
    <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html"
    import="ShoppingBasket,Product"
    errorPage="errorpage.jsp" %>
    I get :
    C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.30\work\Standalone\localhost\_\shop_0002dbasket_jsp.java:7: '.' expected
    import ShoppingBasket;
    ^
    C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.30\work\Standalone\localhost\_\shop_0002dbasket_jsp.java:8: '.' expected
    import Product;
    ^
    C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.30\work\Standalone\localhost\_\shop_0002dbasket_jsp.java:50: cannot resolve symbol
    symbol : class ShoppingBasket
    location: class org.apache.jsp.shop_0002dbasket_jsp
    ShoppingBasket basket = null;
    The classes compile ok . I read that instead of comma seperating the classes it might be better to put them in a package but I do not know the correct syntax or where to put the package if this is correct.
    The tutorial is from this book and the shopping cart source code is here.
    http://www.ineasysteps.com/books/?1840781971
    Any help appreciated
    Jim Ascroft

    A little beginners explanation of classpaths and packages is in order here. A package works like an extension of the name to keep class names unique. For example, if you have a ShoppingBasket.class and you want to use my ShoppingBasket.class along with it the two class names must be unique or different from one another in some way. Yours could be in com.yourcompany package and mine could be in org.mycompany package. When you reference you Shopping backet in your code you would use com.yourcompany.ShoppingBasket and when you reference mine in the same code you would use or.mycompany..ShoppingBasket. Shorthand for the class can be used by adding an import at the top of the referencing java file. An import is like saying "hay compiler, whenever you see ShoppingBasket look for it in the com.mycompany package!" That brings us to the next point. The package name must always be reflected in the directory structure of the .class file location in order to be found. Your shopping basket must be stored under the directory com/yourcompany if it is in package com.yourcompany. That directory structure should extend off of a classpath entry in order to be made available to the JVM. Classpath entries point to folders, jar or zip files that contain packaged and unpackaged classes. So If you have a classpath entry that points to C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.30\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\classes then all unpackaged classes (classes compiled from a .java file without a package statement) will be pulled directly out of this folder. Also, packaged classes will be pulled out of they're packaging directory structure, which should be located in this folder. You can have as many classpath entries as you want but the classes will be pulled out of the first entry that they can be found under. Now with a web app you don't normally fuss with the setting of classpaths since they are already predefined and configured for you. You just need to know to put all of your class files under the WEB-INF/classes directory in the root of your web app. You do, however, still need to know how they work. You also should know that any jar files should be placed in the lib folder of your web app and not under the classes folder.
    Getting back to your immediate problem, why are you getting class not found errors? Well this stems from what was said above. To fix these kind of problems follow these steps:
    1st off, find out exactly which .java file the .class file was compiled from. (This can be a problem in some environments where multiple copies of source hang around.) This step may involve a recompile and paying close attention to the compiler arguments. In an IDE there should be a setting or dialog that lets you find out exactly where it's placing the .class files created from you source.
    Next, determine what package the .class file should be in by examining (and maybe changing) the package statement at the top. For example, if you intended to put ShoppingBasket in the com.bloodoo package make sure it has a package "com.bloodoo;" statement at the top.
    Next recompile the .java source and move the packaging directory structure into the classes folder of your app. (This would be WEB-INF/classes under the root of the web-app.) For example if ShoppingBasket.class was compiled into the com/bloodoo folder under C:\Program Files\YourIDE\projects\yourproject\output then copy the com folder out of the output folder and into the WEB-INF\classes folder.
    Next examine the calling code (JSP or servlet .java code) and make sure it references the problem class out of the right package. For example, yourpage.jsp should reference the class com.bloodoo.ShoppingBasket and not ShoppingBasket if the shopping basket is deployed in package com/bloodoo. This gets tricky with jsp usebean tags because the desire is to use shorthand but I'm not sure if that works with the use bean tag. Make any modifications and recompile if necessary.
    Lastly, as a rule of thumb avoid wild-card imports (eg. import com.package.*) because they are a common cause of confusion especially when refactoring package names and resolving these kind of issues.Those steps should allow you to resolve 85-90% of your class not found issues. The other 10-15% are rare cases involving the use of custom classloaders, the Java extension mechanism and/or classpath trickery. If you still have questions/problems post back.
