RE: Accessing constants in EL expressions

[Jesse Alexander \(KSFD 121\)]

If you use facelets... you could also write a simple EL-function... 
Has the advantage, that you do not have to change the ACL-class.

Subject: Accessing constants in EL expressions

Hi,

how can I access a constant integer value within an el-statement.

I like to do something like:
<s:acl domainObject="#{faculty}" hasPermission="#{ACL.GRANT + ACL.UPDATE}">
   ...
</s:acl>

And ACL is defined as:

public class ACL ... {
   public static final Integer GRANT = 1;
   public static final Integer CREATE = 2;
   public static final Integer UPDATE = 4;
   ...
}

Any suggestions would be wonderful :-)

Regards
Ingo
