Henri Yandell closed EL-8.
--------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Thanks Jamie; I've gone ahead and applied the patch (at long last!).

 svn ci -m "Applying Jamie Taylor's patch from EL-8 - EL now correctly 
implements the spec and is not affected when the function map is later modified"

> [el] Implementation of parseExpression does not implement spec

>
> The implementation of parseExpression in the EL expression evaluator does not 
> conform to the JSP 2.0 specification.  The javadoc for the fMapper argument 
> states that 
> "The ExpressionEvaluatormustnotholdontotheFunctionMapperreferenceafter 
> returning fromparseExpression(). TheExpression object returned must invoke 
> the same functions regardless of whether the mappings in the 
> providedFunctionMapper instance change between calling 
> ExpressionEvaluator.parseExpression() andExpression.evaluate()."
> The test case which I will attach clearly shows that this is not the case.
> Why hasn't anybody noticed this before, you may ask?  I suspect that the 
> current implementation of Tomcat never updates the bindings in its function 
> mapper once one is constructed, since the functions are defined at web-app 
> load time and can't be updated after that.
