在代码1中:

    if(productList.size() == 0 ){
         request.setAttribute("message", "Search Failed"):        
    }else{
          request.setAttribute("productList", productList);             
    }

    RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("adminViewSearch.jsp");
    rd.forward(request, response);  

或者更合适的方式将被设置

Or more appropriate way would be just set

    if (resultSet!= null) {
        while (resultSet.next()) { 
            Product product = new Product();
            product.setProductId(resultSet.getInt("productId"));
            product.setProductName(resultSet.getString("productName"));
            productList.add(product);
        }
        request.setAttribute("productList", productList);
        RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("adminViewSearch.jsp");
        rd.forward(request, response);
    }

和jsp

<c:if test="${fn:length(companies) gt 0}">
   <!--display collection using c:foreach -->
</c:if>

<c:if test="${fn:length(companies) eq 0}">
   Search failed
</c:if>
