set the value of a object in request scope

I have the object in my req scope. I need to set value to one of the object attributes if that attribute is blank. How can I set its value.

<c:set var="benefitVO" value="${requestScope.BenefitVO}" />

I need to set the following Object attribute value, if it is blank.

something like > benefitVO.setBnftCd("asdf");

How can I set it using JSTL tags?

any ideas

Thanks

This is some kind of a default value that you want, then? If so then just take care of that when you output it. Use <c:if>, and if the attribute is blank then output the default value, otherwise output the attribute.

Or have the servlet that created that request attribute take care of that requirement.
