Support for EL without reflection for better JSF performance ------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBSEAM-2141 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2141 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: EL Reporter: Mikhail Grushinskiy Support for EL without reflection for better JSF performance. The idea is to add a new tag to declare types of the variables used on a page and use this type information to compile EL expressions into byte-code during initialization (deployment) Ex: If the page contains at the beginning <s:typedef var="myBean" class="com.company.package.Bean" /> then all EL expressions can be compiled into bytecode at initialization time (and no reflection will be used for myBean access. <h:outputText value="#{myBean.subBean.property}" rendered="#{myBean.renderText}" /> Some examples of implementation of compiled EL can be found here http://sixlegs.com/blog/java/compiled-el.html This should help much with JSF performance issues Thanks -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
