UIX Problem: How call a nonstatic java bean?

Question

Now with a better subject! It's the same Problem like my post:
How can I call a nonstatic class
Hello All,
I've wrote a simple bean for my testcase that count a value (e.g. site access):
public class Bean1 {
private int accessCount = 1;
public int getAccessCount() {
return (accessCount++);
If I call the bean with a jsp-site, it works fine with different scope. e.g. session and application.
With session scope different browser count different. With application scope different bowser count together. Thats the normal attitude.
My jsp code:
<jsp:useBean id="counter" class="ml.view.Bean1" scope="session" />
<jsp:getProperty name="counter" property="accessCount" />
This don't work with a static bean (normal too), but I can only call a static class in my UIX site.
I call the bean from uix with the invoke element. Is that correct? How can I call a nonstatic class with a special scope? Which other solution ist possible?
My uix code:
<invoke method="getAccessCount" result="${uix.eventResult.getAccessCount}" instance="${sessionScope.Bean1.getAccessCount}" exception="${uix.eventResult.error}" javaType="ml.view.Bean1"/>
Thank you for any solution!

and so forth...

Answer 1

Hello,
try right clicking on the bean and select Create Data Control.
The bean will then appear on your data control pallet and you can drag the field onto your UIX page.
you may be able to acheive this using EL in your example, but i am not sure how to do this. I know the above solution works. You can also use the binding container in any struts action to get hold of your bean and perform any actions on it.
