I am new to SPRING MVC. I am not getting all the details of employee which contains phone and address object as well. Actually, those object are not being binded with employee.
Follow the code:
//(Controller)
EmployeeController.java
@Controller
@RequestMapping(value = "/employee")
public class EmployeeController {
@Autowired
EmployeeService employeeService;
@RequestMapping("/employee")
public ModelAndView registerEmployeer(@ModelAttribute Employee employee) {
Map<String, Object> modelMap = new HashMap<>();
modelMap.put("employee", new Employee());
return new ModelAndView("employee", modelMap);
}
@RequestMapping("/add")
public String addemployee(@ModelAttribute Employee employee) {
employeeService.save(employee);
return "result";
}
@ModelAttribute("phoneTypeList")
public Map<String,String> populatePhoneTypeList()
{
return Phone.getPhoneTypes();
}
@ModelAttribute("addressTypeList")
public Map<String,String> populateAddressTypeList()
{
return Address.getAddressTypes();
}
}
//Form which takes employee details employee.jsp
<h2>Employee Information</h2>
<form:form method="POST" action="employee/add"
modelAttribute="employee">

//my employee bean looks like this employee.java
public class Employee {
private List<Phone> phoneList = new ArrayList<Phone>();
private List<Address> addressList = new ArrayList<Address>();
private long ssn;
private String firstname;
private String lastname;
private String dob;
private String emailid;
public long getSsn() {
return ssn;
}
public void setSsn(long ssn) {
this.ssn = ssn;
}
public String getFirstname() {
return firstname;
}
public void setFirstname(String firstname) {
this.firstname = firstname;
}
public String getLastname() {
return lastname;
}
public void setLastname(String lastname) {
this.lastname = lastname;
}
public String getDob() {
return dob;
}
public void setDob(String dob) {
this.dob = dob;
}
public String getEmailid() {
return emailid;
}
public void setEmailid(String emailid) {
this.emailid = emailid;
}
public void addPhone(Phone ph) {
phoneList.add(ph);
}
public void addAddress(Address ad) {
addressList.add(ad);
}
public void setPhoneList(List<Phone> phoneList) {
this.phoneList = phoneList;
}
public List<Phone> getPhoneList() {
return phoneList;
}
public List<Address> getAddressList() {
return addressList;
}
public void setAddressList(List<Address> adList) {
this.addressList = adList;
}
}
I can get only those details of employee like ssn, first name, last name etc but not phone type, phone no, address details which are the field of another objects. My assumption is the binding is not working here. Any idea?
