JSTL forEach separator

Question

Is there a built in feature in JSTL to output separators while doing foreach?

The task is to output separators (like commas) after each iteration except the last one

Answer 1

<c:forEach items="${myList}" var="item" varStatus="status">
    ${item}<c:if test="${not status.last}">,</c:if>
</c:forEach>

Answer 2

Use the varStatus attribute, which references an object of type LoopTagStatus:

<c:forEach var="foo" items="${foos}" varStatus="loopStatus">
    <c:out value="${foo}"/>
    <c:if test="${!loopStatus.last}"> | </c:if>
</c:forEach>

Answer 3

You may use `varStatus' attribute in EL,

<c:forEach var="foo" items="${foos}" varStatus="loopStatus">${foo}${!loopStatus.last?',':''}</c:forEach>`
