I am using Spring MVC as a front-end to my Spring app. I have an object which is put into the model, which contains all of the values for my report. It looks like this:
public class AggregateResultBean {
private String regionName;
private String countryName;
private String indicatorId;
@NumberFormat(pattern="#,###,###.00")
private HashMap<String, BigDecimal> indicatorValues;
.
.
.
}
In my jsp, I loop over a list of months, like Jan97, Feb97, etc, that are the keys to the indicatorValues hashmap above, and I get the indicatorValue for a specific month.
I want to format that value, but the above code is not doing the trick.
The second, more complicated part is that I want the numberFormatter to be a Percent Formatter when, say, indicatorId = 5 or something. How would I go about doing this using annotations (or even without annotations)?
