Example of Variable Support Tags of JSTL Core Tag Library
JSTL( Java Sever pages Standard Tag Library) provide
simple tags of core functionality that are used in many web applications. JSTL
provides four tag libraries, here in this example we will see how to use core
tag library of JSTL. uri for JSTL Core library is......
http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core
So before use Core JSTL tags we must include following
line of code :-
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %>
JSTL core library provides following two tags for
variable support....
1 :-
set : Tag <c:set > is
used to initialize a variable with some given value.
For Example : <c:set
var="name" value="Mahendra" scope="request" />
Here we are initialize
variable 'name' with value 'Mahendra'. We can also define scope of this variable
by using attribute scope.
2:-
remove : Tag <c:remove> is used to remove a scoped
variable from a particular scope.
For Example : <c:remove
var="name" scope="request"
/>
In the example given below defines the use of variable support tags of JSTL Core
tag library. We have also used tag <c:out> to show the variable in
standard output device.

<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" %>

<h2>This is Variable Support tags example of JSTL.</h2>
<c:set var="fName" value="Mahendra" />
<c:set var="lName" value="Singh" />
<h3>Welcome.......
<c:out value="${fName}" />
<c:out value="${lName}" />
</h3>
<c:remove var="fName" />
<!--variable fName will not show any
value because it has removed. -->
<c:out value="${fName}" />
<c:out value="${lName}" />
</body>

Steps to run this example :
1: Download the zip file of code and unzip this file, you will get a
folder named 'var_support_jstlCore'.
2: Paste this folder in 'Apache Tomcat 6.0.16-->webapps' or generally
in directory 'C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.16\webapps'.
3: Start tomcat server by click on startup.bat file in 'C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.16\bin'.
4: Open browser and type url 'http://localhost:8080/var_support_jstlCore/jstlExample.jsp'
or click on this link.
When program will run in browser this will show the following output.....
