          public Component getBean(ValueStack stack,
                                   javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req,

      Specified by:
        `getBean` in class `ComponentTagSupport`

    - #### populateParams

          protected void populateParams()

      Description copied from class: `ComponentTagSupport`
      Define method to populate component state based on the Tag parameters.

      Descendants should override this method for custom behaviour, but should always call the ancestor method when doing so.

      Overrides:
        `populateParams` in class `AbstractUITag`

    - #### setFieldValue

          public void setFieldValue(String aValue)

    - #### setSubmitUnchecked

          public void setSubmitUnchecked(String aValue)

    - #### setPerformClearTagStateForTagPoolingServers

          public void setPerformClearTagStateForTagPoolingServers(boolean performClearTagStateForTagPoolingServers)

      Must declare the setter at the descendant Tag class level in order for the tag handler to locate the method.
      Overrides:
        `setPerformClearTagStateForTagPoolingServers` in class `AbstractUITag`
      Parameters:
        `performClearTagStateForTagPoolingServers` - true if tag state should be cleared, false otherwise.

    - #### clearTagStateForTagPoolingServers

          protected void clearTagStateForTagPoolingServers()

      Description copied from class: `StrutsBodyTagSupport`
      Provide a mechanism to clear tag state, to handle servlet container JSP tag pooling behaviour with some servers, such as Glassfish.

      Usage: Override this method in descendant classes to clear any state that might cause issues should the servlet container re-use a cached instance of the tag object. If the descendant class does not declare any new field members then it should not be strictly necessary to call this method there. Typically that means calling the ancestor's `ComponentTagSupport.clearTagStateForTagPoolingServers()` method first, then resetting instance variables at the current level to their default state.

      Note: If the descendant overrides `StrutsBodyTagSupport.doEndTag()`, and does not call super.doEndTag(), then the descendant should call this method in the descendant doEndTag() method to ensure consistent clearing of tag state.

      Overrides:
        `clearTagStateForTagPoolingServers` in class `AbstractUITag`
