What's the correct way to get to the username using EL?

I have a static method that returns a list of a type. In order for me to get a username from type I have to do the following type.getUser.getUserName. What's the correct way to get to the username using EL? I tried type.user.userName, but that didn't work.

The correct EL syntact would be type.user.userName. That is without the getters.

${type.user.userName} is the proper way to go. If it "doesn't work" (how exactly it doesn't?), it may be because the user is null.
