[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-3350) ELException when using { in string literal

[Farah Juma (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-3350?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12969425#comment-12969425 ] 

Farah Juma commented on WFLY-3350:
----------------------------------

It turns out that this is a known issue that was fixed in Mojarra 2.2.6:

https://java.net/jira/browse/JAVASERVERFACES-3135

Since Mojarra was upgraded from 2.2.5 to 2.2.6 in WildFly 8.1.0.CR1, I'm going to close this issue.

> When using { in string literal in an EL expression in a Facelet like below
> {code}
> #{'blah blah {0} blah blah'}
> {code}
> WildFly 8.0.0 Final throws the following EL exception:
> {code}
> javax.el.ELException: EL Expression Unbalanced: ... #{'blah blah {0} blah blah'}

> This EL construct has worked for ages in all other major servers such as JBoss AS, EAP, Tomcat, TomEE, GlassFish, WebSphere/Liberty, Geronimo, etc.
> We discovered this problem when testing all pages of OmniFaces Showcase (currently deployed to JBoss EAP 6.2 at OpenShift) on WildFly 8.0.0 Final. The following showcase page http://showcase.omnifaces.org/functions/Strings failed at WildFly with this exception.
