I am having a problem with the combination of Seam 1.2.1, MyFaces
(1.1.5 or 1.2.0) and Facelets 1.1.11 when it comes to EL functions. I
am trying to get help from the facelets user list and the seam forum,
but I know a lot of myfaces users use facelets, and may have a
solution.
In MyFaces 1.1.5, EL functions work fine in the facelet views since
facelets handles those. However, with
'facesContext.getApplication().createValueBinding("#{s:hasRole('test')}");'
I get an exception.
1.1.5 error:
Caused by: javax.faces.el.ReferenceSyntaxException: Functions not
supported in expressions. Function: s:hasRole
I tried MyFaces 1.2 and got a different error.
With MyFaces Core/Api 1.2.0 I get this exception:
javax.el.ELException: Expression uses functions, but no FunctionMapper
was provided
Here is the message on the seam forum:
More information here:

How can I get EL functions to work through the JSF Application object
as well as through the facelets view handler?
Thanks,
Andrew
