Access hashmap value by variable in JSP
Solution 1
In EL, numbers are treated as Long
. Change your Map
to be a Map<Long, String>
and it'll work.
Solution 2
You can put the key-value in a map on Java
side and access the same using JSTL
on JSP
page as below:
Prior java 1.7:
Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
map.put("key","value");
Java 1.7 and above:
Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<>();
map.put("key","value");
JSP Snippet:
<c:out value="${map['key']}"/>
Solution 3
I think the id attribute of beans is not a wrapper object (Integer id;
). Have a look at doc page of Map.
Text from JavaDoc
Note: great care must be exercised if mutable objects are used as map keys. The behavior of a map is not specified if the value of an object is changed in a manner that affects equals comparisons while the object is a key in the map. A special case of this prohibition is that it is not permissible for a map to contain itself as a key. While it is permissible for a map to contain itself as a value, extreme caution is advised: the equals and hashCode methods are no longer well defined on a such a map.
Item.java
package com.me;
public class Item {
private Integer id;
private String description;
public Item() {
}
public Item(Integer id, String description) {
this.id = id;
this.description = description;
}
public String getDescription() {
return description;
}
public void setDescription(String description) {
this.description = description;
}
public Integer getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Integer id) {
this.id = id;
}
}
JSP snippet
<%
HashMap<Integer, String> myMap = new HashMap<Integer, String>();
myMap.put(new Integer(1), "One");
myMap.put(new Integer(2), "Two");
myMap.put(new Integer(3), "Three");
request.setAttribute("myMap", myMap);
List<com.me.Item> list=new ArrayList<com.me.Item>();
list.add(new com.me.Item(1,"A - Desc"));
list.add(new com.me.Item(2,"B - Desc"));
list.add(new com.me.Item(3,"C - Desc"));
request.setAttribute("list", list);
%>
<c:forEach items="${list}" var="item" varStatus="status">
<c:out value="${item.description}"/>
<c:out value="${myMap[item.id]}"/>
</c:forEach>

I have a hashmap, which is put to the request:
HashMap<Integer, String> myMap = ... request.setAttribute("myMap", myMap);
In JSP I have a foreach loop
<c:forEach items="${list}" var="item" varStatus="status"> <c:out value="${item.description}"/> <c:out value="${myMap[item.id]}"/> </c:forEach>
but
${myMap[item.id]}
does not work. How can I access hashmap's value byitem.id
variable ? -
shareef almost 11 yearsIs there a special case for
HashMap<String, some bean>
because i tried this${applicationscope.coursesHT[anotherbean.courseC]}
to get the description of course but it didnot work but when i usec:set
andc:out
it worked !! :) thanks
