how to submit object with list of sub-objects from JSP to Controller?

Question

I have a class A having field of List of class B

class A{

       private String x;
       private String y;
       private List<B> list;
}

class B{

      private string x1;
      private String y1;
}

In JSP, I have a form where there is input field for x and y and c:foreach select for B.

My question is that how to make a form so that i can pass a list of objects of type B inside A and send it to the spring controller.

So far i am getting a list with only one element.

You can use array. example :

<c:forEach items="${a.list}" varStatus="i">
    <tr>
        <td><form:input path="list[${i.index}].x1" type="text" /></td>
        <td><form:input path="list[${i.index}].y1" type="text" /></td>
    </tr>
</c:forEach>

and for add and delete List rows in jsp i used javascript..
