Hi,

Since setter will be called setMystring("hello") and there is no such method caller will see following exception

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Cannot find any information on property 'mystring'

please crosscheck once and advice.

The answer and the explanation are correct. Did you try it out?

Ok I read the explanation but still I do not agree with the point I have verified by making similar code.

<jsp:useBean id="mystring" class="java.lang.String" />
I agree this will create empty string.

<jsp:setProperty name="mystring" property="*" />
now when you pass following parameter mystring=hello to above JSP wont it call
mstring.setMystring("hello") . Since it does not exist and fail.

Again, did you try running the code? It works fine.
It won't call setMystring("hello") because String doesn't have mystring property. When you use property="*", it sets only those properties that exist.

oh ok Thanks !!!!
