JSF + JSTL

[Yasir Qureshi]

Hi,
Can I use JSTL tags with JSF? I am trying to use it, but JSTL tags are not working, probably the bean in request is not visible to jstl tags.

I am using this to have the bean available in request scope
<%-- jsf:pagecode language="java" location="/JavaSource/com/dest/web/pagecode/LogView.java" --%><%-- /jsf:pagecode --%>

When I use <jsp:usebean> the jstl tags works fine, but I dont want to use it as using jsf:pagecode and jsp:usebean together calls the constructor of backing bean twice which I dont want.

Thanks,
Yasir

If using JSF 1.1 or below, you are going to run into issues with it and JSTL. JSF 1.2 is supposed to be able to play nice with JSTL.
