[jira] Created: (MYFACES-1670) A dollar-type, 2 level EL expression
evaluates to null
A dollar-type, 2 level EL expression evaluates to null
------------------------------------------------------
Key: MYFACES-1670
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-1670
Project: MyFaces Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JSR-252
Environment: geronimo-2.0-M6-rc1
Reporter: Alexander Zynevich
Fix For: 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT
Attachments: eltest.war
I have a simple code where dollar-type expression (like ${}) works differently than shrap-type expression (like #{}),
I put into the http session a managed bean aggregating another bean.
${parent} is calculated, while ${parent.child} is always null (it is printed as an empty string and equals to null in "when" tag).
For example the following snip of JSP code:
<f:view>
<h:form id="myform" >
<b>Using sharp-el</b>: <br/>
\*<h:outputText id="cll1" value="#{customerDetailsBean}" />\*<br/>
\*<h:outputText id="cll2" value="#{customerDetailsBean.customer}" />\*<br/>
<b>Using dollar-el</b>: <br/>
\*${customerDetailsBean}\*<br/>
\*${customerDetailsBean.customer}\*<br/>
<b>Classical "servlet" style</b>: <br/>
\*<% if (session.getAttribute("customerDetailsBean") != null) {%><%= session.getAttribute("customerDetailsBean") %><% } %>\*<br/>
\*<% if (session.getAttribute("customerDetailsBean") != null) {%><%= ((eltest.CustomerDetailsBean)session.getAttribute("customerDetailsBean")).getCustomer() %><% } %>\*<br/>
</h:form>
</f:view>
-- PRODUCES --:
*Using sharp-el:*
\*CustomerDetailsBean: { customer: Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}}\*
\*Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}\*
*Using dollar-el:*
\*CustomerDetailsBean: { customer: Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}}\*
\*\*
*Classical "servlet" style:*
\*CustomerDetailsBean: { customer: Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}}\*
\*Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}\*
while I would expect:
*Using sharp-el:*
\*CustomerDetailsBean: { customer: Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}}\*
\*Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}\*
*Using dollar-el:*
\*CustomerDetailsBean: { customer: Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}}\*
\*Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}\*
*Classical "servlet" style:*
\*CustomerDetailsBean: { customer: Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}}\*
\*Customer {frstName: Alex , lastName: Zynevich, id: 1979}\*

[jira] Commented: (MYFACES-1670) A dollar-type, 2 level EL
expression evaluates to null
Posted by "Bernhard Huemer (JIRA)" <de...@myfaces.apache.org>.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-1670?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12519142 ]
Bernhard Huemer commented on MYFACES-1670:
------------------------------------------
The problem is a legacy PropertyResolver being required by the JSF 1.2 specification (org.apache.myfaces.el.DefaultPropertyResolver). This PropertyResolver just has to call "FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getELContext().setPropertyResolved(false);" (see JSF 1.2 specification, 5.8.2). However, if the container is evaluating an expression, it uses its own ELContext implementation (e.g. org.apache.jasper.el.ELContextImpl).
At the beginning I've said that the problem is the legacy PropertyResolver, but that's not really the case as its expected behaviour is described in the specification. Actually, the adapter class making it possible to use PropertyResolvers in the ELResolver chain is incorrect. Before delegating the request to the PropertyResolver it assumes that the property will be resolved and therefore calls "context.setPropertyResolved(true);". This behaviour is also according the specification if I haven't got it wrong (5.6.1.6). If the PropertyResolver is not able to fulfill the task it just has to call "context.setPropertyResolved(false);", but remember that a PropertyResolver just knows how to access the FacesELContext.
Therefore the adapter class has to inform its given context whether the property has been resolved or not according to the FacesELContext. I'll attach a patch.

---------------------------------------------
just rechecked this smallest application in Glassfish, it did produce output as expected,
I also recheck it on Geronimo with different <managed-bean-scope>: application, request, session. Result is always the same and incorrect.
