Summary: EL resolver does not call (overridden) Enum.toString() method Product: Tomcat 6 Version: 6.0.18 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Jasper AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org ReportedBy: d...@elegiac.net I have created my own enum MyEnum which override the toString() method. If I set an attribute of type MyEnum with name "foo" in the page context, and use the EL ${foo} in a JSP page, Enum.name() is used instead of Enum.toString() to render the enum instance, thus displaying the enum constant name instead of the enhanced description String returned by MyEnum.toString(). It seems the expectedType argument is String instead of Enum in the org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.proprietaryEvaluate() method. A possible workaround is to create the following method in the enum: public final String getToString() { return toString(); } and use ${myEnum.toString} in JSP pages, which is undesirable. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
