Checkout the last paragraph of JXPath's PackageFunctions description [1], this may be what you're looking for : the whole classpath is accessible through fully-qualified names.

I've read it and tried to do the following:
<jx:out value='#{java.text.SimpleDateFormat.format(java.text.SimpleDateFormat.new("dd/MM/yyyy"), someDate)}'/>
where ``someDate'' evaluates to an instance of java.util.Date, but I get the following error:
org.apache.commons.jxpath.JXPathException: Undefined function: java.text.SimpleDateFormat.format
