Struts2 not showing String Attribute

Question

I am pretty familiar with Struts 2... Since 3 days I've been stuck in a very strange problem.
I have many attributes in my action class; some are Integers, the others are Strings.
I know I have created both of the getters/setters for all my attributes
showcase extends struts-default and json-default because i need the class to render a json table i am using the struts2-jquery gridtag....
none of my attributes are being printed exept sord,sdix,page.. those defined by the tag

My Action Class

The Value of page is shown but the value of myeditOptions is not..... Pleeeease help

Answer 1

@Lord-zed I see that you populate myEditOptions only on prepare() method. It is not populated again when the "execute" action is hit. So either you must populate it again in execute() or put a hidden field in the jsp of the prepare action to post it back to the "execute" action. I would propose to repopulate it in the execute().

Answer 2

There is no need to typecast the getters and setters, You should create different file of getters and setters and DAO too.
