No. Your example works fine for me, rev# 1523651. public class ElFileTest { @Test public void testElAndFile() throws IOException { ELProcessor proc = new ELProcessor(); proc.getELManager().importClass("java.io.File"); File f = (File) proc.eval("File('./')"); Assert.assertEquals(new File("./").getCanonicalPath(), f.getCanonicalPath()); } } Dan > > I don't think EL spec does mandate implementations to make their best effort > to find a suitable method when invoking overloaded methods. > > Xavier > > ---------------------------------------- >> Subject: Re: Using EL expressions in an ObjectFactory >> From: dmik...@gopivotal.com >> Date: Mon, 16 Sep 2013 07:48:33 -0400 >> To: users@tomcat.apache.org >> >> On Sep 16, 2013, at 3:03 AM, Xavier Dury <kal...@hotmail.com> wrote: >> >>> Hi, >>> >>> I switched to org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-jasper-el:8.0.0-RC1 as javax.el 3.0 >>> implementation and tested with the following code: >>> >>> ELProcessor processor = new ELProcessor(); >>> processor.getELManager().importClass("java.io.File"); >>> processor.eval("File('./')"); >>> >>> but I get the following error: >>> >>> javax.el.ELException: Function ':File' not found >>> at org.apache.el.parser.AstFunction.getValue(AstFunction.java:136) >>> at org.apache.el.ValueExpressionImpl.getValue(ValueExpressionImpl.java:188) >>> at javax.el.ELProcessor.getValue(ELProcessor.java:129) >>> at javax.el.ELProcessor.eval(ELProcessor.java:115) >>> at >>> org.apache.naming.factory.ExpressionFactoryTest.elImplementationShouldWork(ExpressionFactoryTest.java:43) >>> >>> Are methods importClass, importStatic and importPackage on ELManager >>> already implemented in apache EL? >> >> Sorry, I don't think I was clear enough in my last response.
