@ page import=..... OR jsp:useBean id.....

I'm a newbie in JSP, and I found uses <@ page import=.....> to run the java (*.class) is similar as uses <jsp:useBean id.....>, can anyone tell me what's the different between them??
Thx a lot~

I didn't find any necessary to use "import" tag before use "<jsp:useBean...>" when I used "Weblogic 5.1/6.0", "JRun 3.0/3.1". But I'm sure "Tomcat4.0" have to "import" first. Some documents showed the "import" tag was not necessary in "Tomcat" before version "4.0". I don't know the special feature from this version is good or not. Could someone tell me whether it's the future feature in JSP?

  • Jsp:useBean vs page import in JSP

    Hi,
    What is the difference between jsp:useBean vs page import in JSP?
    By using page import also I can call the method of the class, apart from jsp:useBean does have scope associated with it. I don't think there is any change between both the 2. Yes by using jsp:useBean we can set the property and get the property as well.
    Is there any major differences between the 2 and when to use which ? Please clarify.
    Thanks.

    Thanks.Yes there is a difference.
    If you use import, then you have to create/use the reference object to use the class methods. And you can't define the scopes like session, page .. etc. Apart from this you will be using scriptlets <% %>.
    if you are using jsp:useBean , then you can skip the above activities. useBean takes care of it.
    or you can say jsp has provided a utility to access the beans without creating its object or using scriptlets.

  • Jsp:usebean, @page import & CLASSPATH

    I hav given jsp:usebean for using the classes and then used import package mypack.* in my jsp file. But this is not recognised. I tried putting mypack (which has the class files) in webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes. Still it is not working. My jsp working directory is /usr/tomcat405/webapps/examples/jsp/mydir wher my jsp file resides. I tried giving this dir in CLASSPATH and exported it in my .bashrc file in my linux system. Still the import is not working. What could b the reason?

    If you put your jsp in the examples context, then put your classes into
    /usr/tomcat405/webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes/mypack
    This should work even without the import line because the "classes" directory is in Tomcat's classpath.
    Also be aware of case sensitivity.
    hav given jsp:usebean you should use
    <jsp:useBean (upper case B)

  • Which one better to use - jsp:useBean or import statement

    Hi,
    I just want to know that which one is better to use jsp:useBean or import statement .
    I can instantiate and call method of myclass -
    1) by importing the class through import tag in jsp as <%@page import="myclass"%. or
    2). by using <jsp:useBean tag....
    i have these two option to do the same thing. i know that basically useBean is used to call setter and getter method of bean class and but it can be used to call a normal java file that have some logic .
    so what should i used , which one is better and why?
    useBean provides scope and object instance so no need to create object by new operator. and with import you have to create an instance .
    but which tag should i use in my jsp?
    i am confused???

    ok, means i can use jsp:useBean tag for all my
    classes that are not actually bean. so it will be
    instantiated at run time and provide efficiency .No. Jsp:useBean is used for java bean components.
    >
    but when should i use import statement in my jsp and
    it happen at translation time so will it create any
    type of burden for my code if i import multiple
    classes.For non-java beans, you need to import the classes, period.
    It's not a burden, it's a necessity.

    Weird error. Never seen this one before.
    Try packaging your classes eg:package myClasses;and import them:<%@page import="myClasses.*"%>Should fix the problem.

  • Importing visual jsf page into another jsp page

    Hi
    I am developing a web application using jsp and struts. I want to embed a visual jsf page that Ive created into another jsp page (which is a normal jsp page, not a jsf one.)
    Ive tried quite a few things but nothing seems to work..
    <jsp:include page="Page2.jsp">
    Ive surrounded the code in the f:subview tags. still doesnt work.
    Ive tried using <jsp:useBean id="Page2" scope="page" class="visualwebapplication.Page2" > .. It does not give me an error, but does not embed the page as well. Do I need to some other code after this to use the above bean to display the page.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • JSP page import directive

    I'm running JSPs and servlets under Netscape (Tomcat) web server and am getting errors with my jsp file's first line:
    [%@page import="java.util.*, myclass" %]
    Netscape server throws an error saying that it can't import myclass. I've put the myclass.class file in various locations in the server but it still can't find it. Does anyone know a foolproof way to make the server find such a class when it's compiling jsp's?
    Thanks,
    David

    I think you have to specify package name of your class & not your calss name.

  • How can i load A gui JTable bean through jsp:useBean tag in a jsp page

    Hi,
    i am chiranjit , i am in a jsp project . i am desparately looking a solution for below stated problem:
    i want to make a jsp page for master entry , that why i want to load a GUI Java bean in my jsp page.This GUI Bean contaning a JTable in which allow grid type data entry in the jsp page. But i am unable load that bean in the jsp page through jsp:useBean tag in my page.So if you have any solution then send in the forum as early as possible.
    Thank you
    chiranjit

    No can do. JSPs can only output plain HTML (and javascript...) They are not used like normal Java classes.
    If you need a complex GUI then you might use an Applet instead. If you want to use a JSP then you are stuck using normal HTML components, like <table> <form...> <input type="text"> etc...

    Thus, the Person class can not be found but i dunno why. Where do I have to make an entry? I already tried to set a classpath to this file, but it doesn't work. Has anyone an idea?
    Thanx

    Put the class in a package and call it accordingly. Example:
    WEB-INF
       |
        --- classes
               |
                --- example
                       |
                        --- Person.java
    //then in Person add:
    package example;
    //and in jsp
    <%@ page import="example.Person" %>

  • Jsp:useBean and assigning a value to that bean

    Hello,
    I have a type called Country and I have declared a bean using the "jsp:useBean" syntax.
    I then try to assign a value to that bean in a scriptlet. Eventually I try to retrieve the values using "jsp:getProperty". The problem is that it appears to null.
    Here is the code of the jsp
    <%@ page language="java" %>
    <%@ page import="com.parispano.latinamericaguide.*" %>
    <%
    /* We retrieve the Countries object from the servlet context. */
    ServletContext sc = getServletContext();
    Countries cs = (Countries)sc.getAttribute("countries");
    %>
    <jsp:useBean id="country" class="com.parispano.latinamericaguide.Country"/>
    <%
    /* If the request contains a country id, then we set the variable. */
    country = cs.getCountryFromId(Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("countryID")));
    %>
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Country details</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <table>
    <tr><td>Name</td><td><jsp:getProperty name="country" property="name"/><!-- This is not working--></td></tr>

    Thanks,
    I have added scope="application". It still show "null" indicating that the bean is not initialized with the properties. I would like a quicker way to initialize a bean property than invoking the setProperty tag for each property.
    Here is a simple example that demonstrates the problem:
    <%@ page language="java" %>
    <%@ page import="com.tests.*" %>
    <jsp:useBean id="monBean" class="com.tests.MonBean" scope="application"/>
    <%
    MonBean mb = new MonBean();
    mb.setName("toto");
    monBean= mb;
    %>
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Lomboz JSP</title>
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
    <jsp:getProperty name="monBean" property="name"/>
    </body>
    </html>And the bean
    package com.tests;
    public class MonBean {
    private String name;
    public String getName() {
         return name;
    public void setName(String name) {
         this.name = name;
    }This show "null".
    Any other idea why this is not working?

  • Why do we need jsp:useBean???

    Hi All,
    I am going over both the J2EE tutorial and JSP1.2 spec.
    As far as I read, it seems to me that "jsp:useBean" is a way of creating a bean object.
    <jsp:useBean id="local" scope="application" class="Mylocales">
    If I put the class file in the import statement, can I create the object in the scriptlet
    <% Mylocales local = new Mylocales(); %>
    and set/get properties by calling
    local.setName(); // assume these methods are in the class
    local.getName();
    without using "jsp:setProperty" and "jsp:getProperty".In this way, isn't it a redundancy to have "jsp:useBean" in JSP spec? We can always create any kind of objects in the scriptlets.
    Since "jsp:useBean" has been there for years, I believe something must be wrong with my rationale. However, both the spec and the tutorial couldn't answer this question. Can anyone clear it up to me?
    Thx in advance.
    Kevin

    There's nothing wrong with your rationale; useBean IS a redundant tag, but it does provide some compact functionality without having to write extra code.
    http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/tags/11/syntaxref1115.html covers the syntax of this tag; one advantage of using this tag is the 'scope' attribute, that allows you to define, at object creation, just how long the object will be around. You can limit an object's scope to the page that declared it, or allow it to be accessed by any page that shares the same session, or request, or application.
    I do believe that the main point of this tag comes in at the design level; one of the strongest reasons to use JSPs at all is to separate out the application logic from the page presentation. This means that anyone who can use HTML should be able to maintain the JSP pages in the application. Instead of having to teach a non-programmer a little bit of code, just demonstrate the use of a single tag that can be reused throughout the application. The logical extension of this idea is the tag library.
    Myself, I mix and match as needed, but there are never more than a few lines of scriptlet code in my JSP pages. If there's more code than HTML in my JSP page, I'll go ahead and use a servlet instead.
    Anyway, I guess my point is that JSP pages are flexible, you can pick the functionality that you want to use, and the useBean tag isn't quite superfluous.

  • %@ page import="..." % does not seem to be working correctly

    Hi,
              I am running Weblogic 6.1 sp1 and I am having a problem with import page
              directive. <%@ page import="my.package.*" %> does not appear to be working
              correctly when I try to reference classes in imported packages (my.package,
              etc.) from the useBean tag.
              The following code works with Resin, but not Weblogic:
              <%@ page import="my.package.*" %>
              <jsp:useBean id="errorBean" class="ErrorBean" scope="request"/>
              If, I take out the page directive, and change the useBean tag to:
              <jsp:useBean id="errorBean" class="my.package.ErrorBean"
              scope="request"/>
              then the page compiles and runs just fine.
              Michael
              

    Here's a snippet from Sun's j2ee tutorial
              (http://java.sun.com/j2ee/tutorial/1_3-fcs/doc/JSPBeans4.html):
              <jsp:useBean id="beanName"
              class="fully_qualified_classname" scope="scope"/>
              But I agree with you, the excerpt you posted seems to include the
              useBean tag, which is misleading.

  • Jsp:useBean gives cannot be resolved to a type in Tomcat

    Hi, I am using Tomcat 5.5
    I have a simple JavaBean for test purposes :
    import java.io.Serializable;
        public class testBean implements Serializable {
            int number;
            public testBean() {
            public int getNumber() {
                return number;
            public void setNumber(int newValue) {
                number = newValue;
        }In a file called testBean.java
    I have successfuly compiled it and put the class file the WEB-INF/classes directory.
    I have the following JSP page :
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
    <jsp:useBean id="pub" scope="session" class="testBean" />
    <jsp:setProperty name="pub" property="number" value="1" />
    <html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
    <jsp:getProperty name="pub" property="number" />
    </body>
    </html>When I open this jsp page I get the following error:
    org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
    An error occurred at line: 2 in the jsp file: /test.jsp
    Generated servlet error:
    testBean cannot be resolved to a typeThis example is pretty minimal and I don't understand why it doesn't work. The error seems to be coming from the first JSP statement.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    1. Put your bean class in a package.
    package test;
    import...........2. Put the .class file in web-inf/classes/test/testBean.class
    3. Specify the fully qualified name of the class in the useBean declaration.
    <jsp:useBean class="test.testBean" .../>Note: You'd be better off following the java bean naming conventions. Specifically your class name should be TestBean (first letter caps).

    Please help me anybody.

    First, try restarting Tomcat :-)
    Main 3 reasons for "useBean class is invalid"
    - class must be in a package (ok)
    - class must be public, and have public constructor that takes no arguments (check)
    - class must be compiled, valid and on the classpath. Normally this means the WEB-INF/classes directory.
    From what you have told us, everything seems to check out.
    Try recompiling the .class file to ensure it is valid.
    Does your constructor do anything which might thrown an exception?
    Can you invoke it in scriptlet code without getting an exception?
    <%@ page import="com.stardeveloper.bean.test.SimpleBean" %>
    <% SimpleBean sb = new SimpleBean() %>Trying it in scriptlet code like this might give you a different error message that might help your diagnosis.

  • Jsp:useBean and definition of bean inside jsp:declaration

    I use the following code where I define a bean in jsp:declaration
    Its name is localBean. the problem is that jsp:useBean causes
    a crash and my page is not working without understanding why.
    When I replace the localBean in the jsp:useBean with another Bean
    which is an actual class that resides in the system I have not a problem.
    Any suggestions???

                        this.value = value;
         </jsp:declaration>
