OGNL string manipulation

[vanlalhmangaiha khiangte]

Hi all,

I have set a property roles as below

<s:property value="#session.userrole.roles"/>
<s:set name="jobz" value="#session.userrole.roles" scope="session" />

This is displaying properly as

 S01,R01,G01,T01 

So my string contains S01,R01,G01,T01
How do i search the string for specific values like S01 or T01

The following code is not working

<s:if test="#jobz.contains('S01')">
      <s:text name=a> JOB Code S01 </s:text>
   </s:if>
<s:if test="#jobz.contains('T01')">
      <s:text name=a> JOB Code T01 </s:text>
   </s:if>

How to search strings withing strings .. rather in java terms (how get indexOf function)

Here you can use..

<s:if test="#session.userrole.roles=='S01'">  

I think it will work.

This will not work . This will compare a string only ...
My String is "S01,R01,G01,T01"
How do i search a pattern in this string ??

Either you will have to use...Jstl function tags..that facilitates to manipulate String.

Or Either you need to get a List in place of String n use Selection projection on List Objects.

Hope that would help..

Thanks n Regards.
