[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBSEAM-2546) Interpolator should support escaping of #{ character combination

Interpolator should support escaping of #{ character combination ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-2546 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2546 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 2.0.1.CR2 Reporter: Dan Allen Assigned To: Dan Allen Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.1.0.GA Attachments: JBSEAM-2546-v1.txt Original Estimate: 15 minutes Remaining Estimate: 15 minutes There is an inconsistency between the native JSF parser and Seam's Interpolator, which is used to resolve page descriptions in the pages.xml file, amongst other places. If you need to place a # character just before the value binding expression, you must escape with with a backslash (\) according to the EL specification (i.e. \##{contextVariable}). However, the Interpolator chokes when it encounters this syntax. The Interpolator should be changed to ignore a # sign if escaped.
