Oops, here is a better version:
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
CoreInputText childComponent = childComponent = (CoreInputText)
facesContext.getApplication().createComponent(CoreInputText.COMPONENT_TYPE);
ValueExpression ve = facesContext.getApplication().getExpressionFactory()
.createValueExpression(facesContext.getELContext(), "#{foo.bar}",
Object.class);
childComponent.setValueExpression("value", ve);
