[Webwork-user] Setting Property of a Property

[Tim W. <tl...@us...>]

Well, I can get the property of a property by separating them with :,
that's very cool.

But I can't seem to set the property of a property in an action the same
way.

I'd prefer not to define getters and setters for all my data object's
fields again in the action class, since I have a lovely PersonData class
generated by EJBDoclet that already has all those getters and setters.

I'd like to make the name of an HTML Form field currentPerson:lastName
and have webwork set the lastName field of the PersonData attribute of
the PersonEdit class.

Is this possible?  I can't seem to get it to work - I have debug turned
on, and the Dispatcher doesn't appear to be recognizing the : fields in
setParameters.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Tim
