Problem in getting an object in JSP page.

Question

Hi experts,
I am forming a javabean object in the controller(servlet) and passing the object to a JSP page by setting that object as an attribute. But in that jsp page, when i compile, its not able to locate the class. At the beginning itself while typecasting the attribute as that bean object, i get an error. All the servlet, bean files are in the default package only.
This is how i used..
<%
String m = (String) request.getAttribute("mode");
//My bean object below.
adjuster_bean res=(adjuster_bean)request.getAttribute("data");
%>
And i am using like, calling the bean object's get method to set values of the text boxes in the JSP page. I need help please....

<%@ page import="java.util.*, yourpackage.YourBeanClass" %> Secondly, I see standards not followed in your code...
a) Firstly, as someone else pointed out in this same post. Avoid as much as possible using java scriplets in JSPs. Instead try use JSTL and EL expressions.
b) A java class name should always start with capital letter for every word in the class name and with no underscores. Your bean class name (adjuster_bean) should be changed to something like AdjusterBean
If you want to become a good Java programmer then standards are essential. But, again, it is totally up to you to follow.
