Using Complex Collection with c:foreach in JSP

If I have this code in a .java file

for (int i = 0; i < person.getFamilyMembers().get(0).getCount(); i++) {
    out.println(person.getFamilyMembers().get(0).getMember().get(i).getLastName()
        + "<br />");
}

Where getFamilyMembers() returns an ArrayList<FamilyMembers> and getCount() returns and int

How do I go about putting this in a JSP with JSTL/EL? I know how to do a foreach on a simple Collection, but this is obviously more involved.

Thanks

Since your purpose is display the LastName of each Member of the first FamilyMember of the Person, I would just go with:

<c:forEach var="m" items="${person.familyMembers[0].member}">
    ${m.lastName}
</c:forEach>
