JSTL c:forEach not working

Dear All,

I am going through chapter of JSTL in head first servlets and Jsp and i am trying to iterate through a collection of Employees
using JSTL c:forEach. This is the code

package com.renaissance.action;

import guide.chapter7.Employee;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

import javax.servlet.RequestDispatcher;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpSession;

public class JstlTest extends HttpServlet{
	
	@Override
	protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
			throws ServletException, IOException {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		doPost(request, response);
	}
	
	@Override
	protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
			throws ServletException, IOException {
		
		Employee e1 = new Employee();
		Employee e2 = new Employee();
		e1.setEmpID(1);
		e1.setName("Test");
		e1.setProfession("SSE");
		
		e2.setEmpID(2);
		e2.setName("Test");
		e2.setProfession("PM");
		
		List<Employee> list = new ArrayList<Employee>();
		list.add(e1);
		list.add(e2);
		
		HttpSession session = request.getSession();
		
		session.setAttribute("employee", list);
		
		
		RequestDispatcher dp = request.getRequestDispatcher("/jstlTest.jsp");
		dp.forward(request, response);
		
		
	}

}

Here is the code for the Jsp

The strange thing is that the integer version of c:forEach is working but the below version is not. I am just showing the OR as an alternate
modification i did on the code. I don't know why it is not evaluating and not showing any values. Please help.

Another thing, i have noticed is, Employee list is coming as null. Any ideas why that is happening though i am setting list in session scope.

Please help.

BR,

Hi Guys,

Please ignore this question, its working now. I solved the problem.

BR,

Maybe you could share what you did to solve the problem? So other people with a similar problem can benefit from your experiences.

Dear Roel,

It was a pretty stupid thing over my part. It has no issues. Actually, i was reading this chapter in free time in office and the most dumb mistake i made
was, i was directly calling the jsp, not invoking the servlet. In that case, no attribute was made and list was obviously empty. So no mistake in code, actually
mistake from my end.

Thanks,
