Inside Struts 2 iterator tag, how to get current object for custom tag

Question

How to pass current object in custom tag. Tried by using var="workobj" in iterator, and by passing "workobj" in custom tag as shown below.But it returns null.

<s:iterator value="#request.work" var="workobj">
 <s:property> <!-- Returns current object -->

  <!-- Custom tag start--->
 <work:validate work="${workobj}" > 

 </work:validate> 
 <!-- Custom tag end--->
</s:iterator>

Answer 1

The iterator tag pushes the current element on top of the value stack. The Struts request wrapper has access to the valueStack searching the attributes with the keys from JSP EL expression.

<work:validate work="${top}" >
