I am developing an Spring Roo application and while displaying the Objects in list (in list.jspx), I am getting all the properties of the referenced object. For example:

@RooJavaBean
@RooToString    
@RooJpaActiveRecord

public class Employee {    
    @NotNull
    private String empName;    
    @ManyToOne
    private Department department;
}

And the Department 

@RooJavaBean    
@RooToString    
@RooJpaActiveRecord    
public class Department {    
    @NotNull
    private String deptName;

   @NotNull
   private String deptLocation;
}

Now after building a web project in roo, and adding department entries and employee entries, I am getting an ugly looking table in employee list. All the properties from Department entity are being displayed, where as my intention was to show the Department Name (deptName).

Tried to change in list.jspx as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<div xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" xmlns:page="urn:jsptagdir:/WEB-INF/tags/form" xmlns:table="urn:jsptagdir:/WEB-INF/tags/form/fields" version="2.0">
    <jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/>
    <jsp:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
    <page:list id="pl_com_test_domain_Employee" items="${employees}" z="user-managed">
        <table:table data="${employees}" id="l_com_test_domain_Employee" path="/employees" z="user-managed">
            <table:column id="c_com_test_domain_Employee_Department" property="department.deptName" z="user-managed"/>
            <table:column id="c_com_test_domain_Employee__DeptLocation" property="deptLocation" z="user-managed"/>
        </table:table>
    </page:list>

The error:

What should I do?

I got the answer and here I am sharing it:

To avoid above error, I had changed the table.tagx as follows:

table.tagx: line-84 :

Replace this: 

<spring:eval expression="item[column]" htmlEscape="false" />

with this:

<spring:eval expression="item.${column}"  htmlEscape="false" />

table.tagx: line-95 :

Replace this: 

<spring:eval expression="item[typeIdFieldName]"/>

with this:

<c:set var="itemId"><spring:eval expression="item.${typeIdFieldName}"/></c:set>

Now you can access the properties from an object like this :

 <page:list id="pl_com_test_domain_Employee" items="${employees}" z="user-managed">
    <table:table data="${employees}" id="l_com_test_domain_Employee" path="/employees" z="user-managed">
        <table:column id="c_com_test_domain_Employee_Department"  property="department.deptName" z="user-managed"/>
        <table:column id="c_com_test_domain_Employee_DeptLocation" property="deptLocation" z="user-managed"/>
    </table:table>
</page:list>

Thank you!!!

Just for the googlers of the future:

Spring roo has its own table taglib, which requires the typeIdFieldName attribute! This typeIdFieldName defaults to id, if you didn't gave that.

About your annotations deep in your domain model, it doesn't know anything!

This, if the identifier property of your listed entity isn't id, you need to give it with this typeIdFieldName field manually. For example:

<table:table data="${exampleusers}" typeIdFieldName="userId" id="l_com_project_Example_ExampleUser" path="/exampleUserList">

In my case, the identifier of the exampleUser entity was userId, instead of the common id. It costed me around 2 hours of debugging... good luck!
