I have a datatable and in one of the columns I need to decide what to render based on the type of an object. I looked for an "instanceof" operator in the Unified EL, but it's only a reserved keyword with no implementation. I've seen solutions that use a custom JSF component, this seems overkill for such a common scenario. Does anyone have a more practical solution?
