how to apply continue statement in struts logic:iterate tag

[Khushwinder Chahal]

Hi Friends

Does anybody has any idea to apply continue statement in struts <logic:iterate> tag.
I need it in my application.

Thank You In Advance.

Assuming that the "continue" is used in conjunction with a comparison

<logic:iterate>
<logic:equal>
This part will only be executed if the condition is true
</logic:equal>
else it will continue.
</logic:iterate>

You may use a logic tag ( equal, notequal, present ..) for the comparison.
Will this serve the purpose??

Thanks For Reply Sir

But i think i need to explain my problem a little bit more.
Actually i am using nested <logic:iterate>.
Now what i want is that when the inner loop prints some value it should break it and continue with the next outer loop.
Here loops means logic iterate.
So what i should do now.
I need it very urgently.
Please help me.

okay Ranjit
Here is my code

<logic :-P	 resent name="UserPermissionAll">
<logic:iterate id="element2" name="UserPermissionAll">
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<bean:write property="permissionName" name="element2"/>
</td>
<td>
</td>
<logic :-P	 resent name="UserPermissions">

<logic:iterate id="elements" name="UserPermissions">

 <bean :mrgreen: efine id="permissionName" name="element2" property="permissionName" type="java.lang.String"/>
 <td>
<logic:equal name="elements" property="permissionName" value="<%= permissionName %>">
<html:multibox name="elements" property="id">
<bean:write name="elements" property="id"/>
</html:multibox>

</logic:equal>
<logic:notEqual>
                          TO print somehting
                        </logic:notEqual>

</td>

 </logic:iterate>
</logic :-P	 resent>


</tr>
</table>
</logic:iterate>
</logic :-P	 resent>

I need to shift to outer loop when one of the conditions between logic equal or logic not equal occurs.

[Ranjit Gopinathan]

If i understand the logic correctly , the second array list ( inner one ) need to be iterated only once, whatever be its size.Because equal or not equal the flow must exit that inner list.

In that case, instead of the array list, a simple bean can be used right?

Or else write a method in action form which will return the first object of the array List. get that bean and process it.

You should do all of that logic in your action class. It is a lot easier to do there and it is a lot easier to maintain.
