Had a look. I wasn't looking for info about how an elresolver works, I was more interested in why my Custom one gets invoked for beans which are managed by JSF/Seam. I was hoping that my resolver would be the last one in the chain, but it doesn't seem to be. Quick off-topic question about the PropertyNotFound exception: Currently i just don't set the property to be resolved, and simply return null. In your experience is it better to throw the exception?
