Removing Java code from JSP page

Question

I work this jsp, servlet and struts. (Jsp version 2.0, servlet 2.4, struts 1). There is one "for" loop in another one.

...
<%
 String[] profileNames = { "Page", "Report", "XML API" };
 for (String profileName : profileNames) {
 LRUCache profile = ObjectStore.getStore(profileName + " Profile");
 pageContext.setAttribute("profile", profile);
 pageContext.setAttribute("profileName", profileName);
%>
<table class="sortable" id="<%=profileName%>">
 <tr class=title>
 <th class=contentTable>description</th>
 <th class=contentTable>qty</th>
 </tr>
 <c:forEach var="profile" items="${profileItems}">
 <tr>
 <td>${profile.object.description}</td>
 <td>${profile.object.qty}</td>
 </tr>
 </c:forEach>
</table>
<%
 }
%>

I need this jsp page without java code. How to implement it?

Thank you for any help!

Answer 1

Send the same attributes that you are currently "putting" in pageContext: profile and profileName on the Servlet (or any other similar technology you are using for handling requests/responses).

Something like: request.setAttribute("key", value); on the Servlet class.

UPDATE: I did a quick search over here and you may really want to take a look a this one.

• Dan: Thank you for your help! Can I call java methods with parameters in jsp page (version 2.0) like this: ObjectStore.getStore(profileName + " Profile"); ?
• user4695271: Definitely, With the right <%@ page import="path.to.YourClass" %> (in your case ObjectStore) directive declared first, you can do that, but I strongly recommend you to only use data in your JSPs, it's easier to maintain in the long run, although I also know sometimes requirements and/or time are kind of crazy. Basically, you do the stuff that you have to do, for instance in a Servlet, and then send the data and render the stuff. This link is really useful. Have a great day!
