Can't get Spring form binding with subclasses to work!

[theone]

tried the same thing as this thread suggested
http://forum.springframework.org/showthread.php?t=9850. I added custom edtior. It still doesn't work for me. I found a post on the web dated in July 30, 2004 saying there was an issue with registering Property edtior. Changes do not get propagate down to the lower class.

My question is do I have the latest and greatest from Spring?

I'm running Spring IDE plugin for Websphere
org.springframework.ide.eclipse.beans_1.0.3
org.springframework_1.0.2

How do I know if that changes are in the version of plugin I'm running?

What am I trying to do is very straightforward...

Binding a form with an object EditUser with subclasses: User, Member & Group...

<spring:bind path="editUser.user.firstname">
<input type="text" name="firstname" value="<c:out
value="${status.value}"/>"/>
</spring:bind>

The changes from the form is not get to my User Object.

If I bind the form directly to User like this: And it works fine

<spring:bind path="user.firstname">
<input type="text" name="firstname" value="<c:out
value="${status.value}"/>"/>
</spring:bind>

Some body help...

Seems like you pass the User object instead of the EditUser object as your command object to the form

I did pass the EditUser Object as the command class...

Try to use the ${status.expression} for the name parameter of your html tag.



<spring&#58;bind path="editUser.user.firstname">
<input type="text" name="<c&#58;out
value="$&#123;status.expression&#125;"/>" value="<c&#58;out
value="$&#123;status.value&#125;"/>" >
</spring&#58;bind>
