Can JavaBean retrieve another JavaBean Property?

Yes it can be done, but not by importing (though you need the import to use the class).
Importing is used to specify the classes used, not instances of classes.

You instead need to pass a reference of your bean to your other bean:

import abc.JavaBean1

public class JavaBean2
{

   private JavaBean1 javabean1;

   public void setJavaBean1(JavaBean1 bean)
   {
      javabean1 = bean;
   }

...

Object, confused.
Let's discuss throguht the code I posted just now.

javabean1.java
==============
....
package com.wrox; //location of my JavaBean1
...
...
public class javabean1 {

 private String var1="";
...
...
public void setVar1( Sting v1) {
     var1=v1;
}

public String getVar1() {
     return var1;
}
..
..
}

javabean2.java
==============
...
...
package com.wrox; // location of my javabean2
import com.wrox.javabean1; //Do i need this???
...
private javabean1 jb1;
...

public void setJb1 ( String j1 ) {
     jb1 = j1;
}
public String getJb1 (
     return jb1;
}
...
...


Did I code it right?? And the import com.wrox.javabean1 should be there?? ( I think it should )

The import does not import an object instances.
It just tells the compiler what class(s) you are using.

Your code is fine, but you need to somewhere set the value of jb1.

OK man.... I think I am improving alot....

Do u agree? Since you are the one who share with me most. ha...:-)

Yes you are improving :)

Objects, one extra things wish to ask you.

In the JavaBean declaration part,

<jsp:useBean id="abc" class="com.wrox.javabean1: scope="session" />


regarding the "scope" calue, according from the book, that can be set as page, request, session and application. For my senario, which is consists of 4 jsp pages, and 3 javabean, I would like to keep track of the previous data enter by the user. That's why I use this "scope" functiona. Yet, I found some problems.

1. is it when I implement this scope, will the server request more resources? ( i think it will because the JSP container or server need more procresssing power or memory to store the value of the jsp property).

2. If I want to use this scope, which one is the best to use? I have tried the session but I found the session is not tha stable. Because when I put my page idle for some time,it'll gone. ( I think because of the session time out problem).

3. Finally, do u encourage prople to use application, which mean the JSP property can be access all over the JSP application system in all the 4 JSP page and 2 JavaBea in my case.

Thanks Object, Thanks for your help.

I am still learning from you. Much much more to learn from you. Ha..

Thanks.

Object.... can not again....

"Can not resolve symbol"

debit1bean.java
===============
package com.wrox.cars;

public class debit1bean {
...
private String billcode="";
...
}

stockamount.java
================

package com.wrox.cars;
import com.wrox.cars.debit1bean;

public class stockamount {
   private debit1bean d1;
...
...

Then the error pointing to stockamount.java in debit1bean, saying that cannot resolve symbol...

I am very sure that the debit1bean.java is exist in the directory... com.wrox.cars


 

Check that debit1bean.class exists in the directory... com.wrox.cars

It's there .......

Do u agree that anything wrong with the declaration of the coding inside the debit1bean.java???

debit1bean.java
===============
package com.wrox.cars;

public class debit1bean {
..
...
}

It's there .......

no that looks fine.
