I got an error in my vf page.

Unknown property 'namespace.boardUtil.boardObject.Name'

Here is the code

<apex:page readOnly="true"

  • the inner class boardobject variable name needs a {get; private set;}. BTW - Class names should be InitialCap.

  • Thanks for the solution. It worked, and I am aware of the class naming convention. Actually, I had to remove starting letters from class and variable name because of company compliance. Commented Mar 2 at 22:37

Your error is occurring on this VF line:

<div class="header">{!data.Name}</div>

Within your controller, despite the outer variable public boardUtil.boardObject data { get; set; } having a public getter, each variable in type boardutil.boardobject that is referenced by the VF page

  • Name
  • folderName

also needs a getter defined

public with sharing class boardUtil {
public class boardObject {
    public Id boardId;
    public String Name {get; private set;}   <==== add here
    public String folderName {get; private set;} <== add here

As a note to others (and I'm sorry you have to put up with weird company naming conventions), class names (outer and inner) should really use Pascal case to make the code more readable to others in the SFDC community. After all, SFDC Class names are all Pascal case as they derive from Java
