How absurd about JSTL, jsp:usebean

[Adeel Ansari]

If the datatype of a property is boolean then Eclipse generate a getter for that property like,

boolean isXxx(){
  return xxx;
}

Although, it wouldn't be recognized in JSTL, or jsp:usebean tag. We must keep it like below.

boolean getXxx(){
  return xxx;
}

What eclipse is doing is rational but why JSTL or jsp:usebean are not smart enough to work with that. I have come across a thread discussing the same problem lately.

Well, here is the thread.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Further investigation into that matter -- whose results have been reported in that thread -- reveals that the situation is more subtle than that.

I'm going to close this topic so that any discussion of the JavaBean pattern under investigation can continue in the original topic.
