This seems to require an import, which may be correct, of the constant class in order for this to work. It also does not work with inner classes, https://developer.jboss.org/thread/273323.

> Java EE7 (which supports EL 3.0 spec) allows JSPs to use EL expressions like:
> {code}
> <html>
>    <body>
>       foo: --- ${Boolean.TRUE} ---<br>
>       bar: --- ${Integer.MAX_VALUE} ---<br>
>    </body>
> </html>
> {code}
> However, the {code}${Boolean.TRUE}{code} and {code}${Integer.MAX_VALUE}{code} in the above example aren't evaluated correctly and instead a blank string is rendered for them.
