           Summary: Violation of JSP-EL spec version 2.1 when coerce Enum
                    to String
           Product: Tomcat 6
           Version: 6.0.29
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Jasper
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: oli...@siegmar.net


Section 1.18.2 of the 2.1 JSP-EL spec (Coerce A to String) says "if A is Enum,
return A.name()". This is not always the case in Tomcat 6.0.29. To demonstrate
the bug, I created some custom code (enum, Tag, JSP):

Tag:

public class MyCustomTag implements Tag {
    public void setValue(String value) {
        System.out.println(value);
    }
    @Override public void setPageContext(PageContext pc) {}
    @Override public void setParent(Tag t) {}
    @Override public Tag getParent() { return null; }
    @Override public int doStartTag() throws JspException { return SKIP_BODY; }
    @Override public int doEndTag() throws JspException { return EVAL_PAGE; }
    @Override public void release() {}
}

TLD:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<taglib xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaeeweb-
jsptaglibrary_2_1.xsd" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"; 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; version="2.1">
    <tlibversion>1.0</tlibversion>
    <uri>http://my-domain.org/customLib</uri>
    <tag>
        <name>customTag</name>
        <tagclass>mypackage.MyCustomTag</tagclass>
        <bodycontent>empty</bodycontent>
        <attribute>
            <name>value</name>
            <required>true</required>
            <rtexprvalue>true</rtexprvalue>
        </attribute>
    </tag>
</taglib>

Enum:

public enum MyEnum {

    APPLE, ORANGE;

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "this is a " + name();
    }

}

JSP:

<%...@taglib prefix="myLib" uri="http://my-domain.org/customLib"%>

<myLib:customTag value="${myEnum}"/>
<myLib:customTag value="foo.${myEnum}.bar"/>

Because the value myEnum is was set to MyEnum.ORANGE, i would expect, that this
outputs:

ORANGE
foo.ORANGE.bar

But the output in catalina.out instead is:

ORANGE
foo.this is a ORANGE.bar


Which is a violation of the JSP-EL spec (if I understood it right).
