how to access static boolean variable form jsp

Question

Hi I have a class it contains a boolean value. I want to access its value in JSP page, if this value is false a link will show and if it true link will not show. I have also tried using getter method but it is not working, is there any way to this. My code is as below-

     public class Test { 
            public static boolean isMonitoringStarted;
        }

And in my JSP page I am trying this, but its not working -

        <c:if test="${!Test.isMonitoringStarted}" > 
             <a herf="#">Test</a>
        </c:if>

Please help me. Thanks in advance.

@BalusC: Otherwise how container knows which package Test class is in? Will remove the comment if it is non-sensicial, no issues ther.e — kosa

It's not a bean instance so you can't do that. You could decorate it with a bean. — Elliott Frisch

@Nambari: OP isn't using scriptlets. Please leave that dark cave and catch up with new techniques introduced along with JSP 2.0 more than a decade ago. — BalusC

@BalusC: Ok, I agree it is jstl, but how container resolve Test in this jstl case? — kosa

You could add isMonitoringStarted to request/session attribute and use ${isMonitoringStarted} in your jsp.
