Visual Beans in JSP

Hi All,
Has anyone experimented with Visual beans in JSP? We are failing to represent visual beans in a JSP page. Someone suggested to use applets to bring in Swing thru JSP. But, the applets are pretty slow, specially for big UI. By putting it in JSP, would it make any difference performance-wise?
Can someone give some ideas and answers?
Thanks!

I want to embed my cuustom visual java bean in a JSP page.
I am trying to figure some way out.

What is the difference between java direct or java bean in JSP?

What is the difference if I use java code directly in JSP or use java bean in JSP?
Which class to use for receiving the passed parameter from html or java script? Any difference for java code and java bean in the way receiving the passed data?
How can I pass string from jsp to html or java script?

it's generally accepted as better design to separate presentation from logic. meaning, the java code in the jsp should be used to support displaying data, as oppsoed to implementing the application - like database access, etc.
when the logic is separated from the presentation, it allows you to reuse logic components within several jsp pages.
if you decide to change the presentation layer in the future (to support wap, for example) you don't need to rewrite your entire application, since the "guts" of the application is outside of the jsps.
it is also a good idea to separate your business logic from your data layer. adding a "buffer zone" between these layers helps in the same manner as in separating presentation from logic. if you're using flat files for storage now, upgrading to a database wouldn't require rewriting all your business logic, just the methods which write out the data to a file, for example.
once you feel comfortable with separating the various layers, check out the struts framework at http://jakarta.apache.org/
to answer your second question, to get parameters passed in from HTML forms, use ServletRequet's getParameter() method.
in tomcat:
<% String lastName = request.getParameter( "lastname" ); %>
to answer your third question: when displaying the HTML from withing a jsp, print out the string to a javascript variable or a hidden form element:
<% String firstName = "mike"; %>
<input type="hidden" name="firstname" value="<%= firstName %>">
<script language="javascript1.2">
var firstName = "<%= firstName %>";
</script>
this jsp results in the following html:
<input type="hidden" name="firstname" value="mike">
<script language="javascript1.2">
var firstName = "mike";
</script>

Problem with java beans and jsp on web logic 6.0 sp1

          HI ,
          I am using weblogic6.0 sp1.
          i have problem with jsp and java beans.
          i am using very simple java bean which stores name and email
          from a html form.
          but i am getting following errors:

          You realy can do it like Xiang says, but the better way is to use packages. That's
          the way BEA is designed for. If you use packages you can but your bean classes
          in every subfolder beneath Classes. Here for example we have the subfolders test
          and beans:
          You have to declare the package on top of your Bean Source Code:
          package test.beans;
          In your JSP you don't need the import code of Xiang. You only have to refer the
          path of your bean class:
          <jsp:useBean id="testBean" scope="session" class="test.beans.TestBean" />
          There are some other AppServers that only can deploy Java Beans in packages. So
          if you use packages you are always on the right side.

Beans through jsp

hi,
i' m trainee developer and working in struts. i'm totally novice in this regard. my pl asked me to develop an application on struts. i'm getting problem while using bean through jsp. i'm writing code:
<jsp:useBean id="myBean" class="MyBean" type="MyBean" scope = "session"/>
the error is:
cannot resolve symbol
symbol : class MyBean
location: class org.apache.jsp.confirm_jsp
MyBean myBean = null;
^
total 3 errors associated with it. MyBean class is located in WEB-INF/classes
can any one help me out?

put your bean in a package and put that package under the WEB-INF/classes directory. Then use the fully qualified class name for the jsp:useBean:
//in the bean
package net.thelukes.myprog.beans;
//the jsp:useBean
<jsp:useBean id="myBean" class="net.thelukes.myprog.beans.MyBean" scope="session"/>

How can i use JAVA BEAN and JSP?

well, i have developed all my web apps by using pure JSP only, i know this sucks, but i dont know how to start on using beans... what directory should i put them into... etc... what are the good programminmg practices/standards/techniques when incorporating beans in jsp???

Standards are pretty loose, but generally, Beans hold a lot of the backend logic for your JSP. This can include data validation before entering into the database, database inserts, queries, data manipulation. The JSP should really only contain code that will retrieve the data from the bean and appropriately output it.
As far as using them, you can use the <jsp:useBean> tag in your JSP. As long as the bean is stored somewhere that your classpath points to, you're all set. From then on, you can use it like any other object in your JSP.

Using java bean with jsp

hello friends,
i'm new to jsp. i want to create an html form that accepts username and a value from four radio buttons and display back the entered name and checked radio button's value using java bean.
i use the <jsp:setProperty id="" property="*"> method. i don't know how to access the radio buttons value from the html.
also when i use an additional field other than username the jsp page is showing error.
Please give me the correct method to use java bean with jsp in this circumstance.
thank you.

thank you, but i have a problem left. the case is like this.
i got the jsp and bean worked fine when i have a sinle input text field.
but when i added a second text field i recieved the following error.
javax.servlet.ServletException: basket.newbean.getUserPass()Ljava/lang/String;
     org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.doHandlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:825)
     org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:758)

     org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:236)
     javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802)
where userPass is the new form element. I have made the subsequent chanes in my bean program and jsp file.
pls hlp.

Using java beans in jsp using tomcat

hi i have made a form to enter user first name and last anme with html and then i have made a value javabean in which i want to store the information filled bu user. i want to display the information stored in java bean in jsp page i have made the full application and i have made class file of java bean as well as jsp file but when i try to run this web application in tomcat i am getting class not found exception.
could anybody tell me that where i should store the bean class in tomcat and do i need to make any package in which i have to place my java bean file plz tell me complete procedure along with code if possible

whew thats a lot of questions... All of this is pretty basic stuff. I would recommend you take a look at the web services tutorial: http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/tutorial/doc/
lets see.
Starting a package name with com is just a generic standard which is followed.
It is most correct when creating commercial packages to create packages like com.companyName.project
http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/html/CodeConventions.doc8.html
You should not need a page import directive unless you are using classes in scriptlets: ie <% %> tags in your JSP. Your jsp:useBean tag will automatically import necessary classes - you don't need to import classes for beans specifically
<jsp:useBean id="myClass" scope="session" class="com.myPackage" />
Your directory structure should be something like this
webApplicationRootDirectory
- page1.html
- page2.html
- page3.jsp
- page4.jsp
- WEB-INF
     - web.xml
     - classes
       - com
         - myPackage
           - myClass.classerrrm. Thats about it I think.

Calling Beans from JSP page

hi,
I tried to my best to call java beans from JSP page but it generate error that "unable to load class....", please help me that in which directory jsp file and bean *.class file reside, currently my setting are as follows.
Note: I am using tomcat server and my jsp and servlet files are running seccessfuly, there is any special change in classpath for java beans? if any please tell
My jsp file is in tomcat-->webapps-->jsp--><my file>
My bean (*.class) file-->webapps-->Root-->web-inf-->classes--><my file>
Pleae help me for the above problem.
Mubashar ([email protected])

According to J2EE standards:
The web appl directory structure should be:
WebAppRootDirectory
|
|---html, jsp, images etc
|
|---WEB-INF---
|---classes--
|---lib
|
|
1) Make sure WEB-INF is in capital letters
2) Place all ur beans in classes dir or sub-directory in
classes
3) In Tomcat place WebAppRootDirectory in webapps
directory

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???
<HTML>
     <jsp:declaration>
          static public class localBean {
               private String value;
               public String getValue() {
                    return value;
               public void setValue(String value) {
                    this.value = value;
     </jsp:declaration>
     <jsp:useBean id="localBean" scope="page" class="localBean">
          <jsp:setProperty name="localBean" property="value" value="World"/>
     </jsp:useBean>
     <%-- Whatever HTTP parameters we have, try to set
          an analogous bean property -- %>
     <jsp:setProperty name="localBean" property="*"/>
     <head>
          <title>Hello World JavaBean</title>
     </head>
     <body>
          <center>
               <p><h1>
                    Hello
                    <jsp:getProperty name="localBean" property="value"/>
               </h1></p>
               <form method="post">
                    Enter a name to be greeted:
                    <input type="text" size="32" name="value"
                    value="<jsp:getProperty name='localBean' property='value'/>">
                    <br>
                    <input type="submit" value="submit"/>
               </form>
          </center>
     </body>
</html>

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?
Thanks,

Calling function from Backing Bean or JSP page

We are on Jdeveloper 10.1.3.3.0, ADF Faces, JSF Faces .., Currently there is a function call from Javascript event (onmouseover) in the JSP page. I want to call this function from a backing bean or JSP page, as I have to pass some values to this function.
For Ex., I have a function call like return submit('A','B','Test'); on the Javascript event (onmouseover) in jsp page. I want to remove this function from the javascript event and call from backing bean or jsp page to pass some values into the submit() function. I appreciate if anyone can give some example of how to call this function from backing bean or jsp page in the <SCRIPT> or <SCRIPTLET>
Thanks,
Ram

A use case would be helpful so that we can get a better idea of what you want to do.
As a general rule, there is no way to call a client side Javascript function from a backing bean, which is server side. However, there are ways to inject information from a backing bean into your Javascript call. For instance, I have an application that uses Google Maps API. It has an onload call to a Javascript function that builds the map and designates it's center point. The center point comes from a backing bean as latitude and longitude properties. So here is my body tag:
<afh:body onload="initialize(#{backing_searchResults.latitude},#{backing_searchResults.longitude},#{searchCriteria.distance})"
onunload="GUnload()">onload calls the Javascript function called initialize, and passes the latitude, longitude, and distance from the bean. Is the function really being called from my backing bean? No - the parameters are hard coded into the onload event code when the page is rendered. Does it do the job? Sure it does.

How to call java bean from jsp

hi
How to call a java bean from jsp page..
Is any other way to call javabean from jsp page apart from this sample code...
<jsp:useBean id="obj" class="com.devsphere.articles.calltag.TestBean"/>
thnx in advance

If you also use servlets, you can attach beans to the request or session and use them directly in your JSP's. So if you do:
request.setAttribute("name", yourBean);and then forward to a JSP, you can reference the bean like:

Can anyone explain to me what are the steps and ways to call java beans from JSP?

1st, put the javabean classes in the right place:
the web-inf/classes/your_bean.class directory of corresponding web application
2nd in your jsp page:
<jsp:useBean id="obj_var_name" class="your_bean"/>
<jsp:setProperty name="obj_var_name" property="smthg" value="smthg_calue"/>

Not. You can, technically, but you shouldn't. JSP should be for display purposes only, containing no Java code whatsoever.
for example my case is.. iam entering two diffrent data,Wrong. You cannot possibly have "2 data", the very concept is impossible.
You can have "2 data items" which is probably what you intended to say?

Same way you insert them. Of course JPA entities are distinctly different from entity beans. The very concept of entity beans no longer exists in the context of JPA, it's solely used to mean EJB 2.1 or earlier entity beans.

It's not urgent.
