It seems that f:convertDateTime is caching the various parameters such as
timezone, pattern etc... In other words they are loaded the first time the
page is created and never reloaded again even if they are specified as an EL
expression.
For example:
<h:outputText value="#{backendBean.time}">
<f:convertDateTime timeZone="#{backendBean.timeZone}" pattern="MM/dd/yy
HH:mm"/>
</h:outputText>
In the above the timeZone is read from the bean once (the first time the
page is constructed) and never again even though the value the EL expression
is pointing to does change.
Is this a bug? Is there a workaround (short of writing your own converter in
your own tag library)?
Thanks
