I have a h:dataTable that displays ProfileNotification like below:
<h:dataTable value="#{myBean.profileNotifications}" var="item"
rendered="#{myBean.renderProfileNotification}">
<h:column>
<h:form>
<h:outputText value="#{item.userName} "/>
<h:outputText value="commented on your profile. "/>
<!-- <h:outputText value="[#{item.createTime}]"/> -->
</h:form>
</h:column>
</h:dataTable>
when I dont have the item.createTime, if I click a commandLink to set renderProfileNotification=true, it print out 4 items. However, if i uncommented item.createTime, the it only print out 1 item, the first item.
EDIT: The problem is the [] inside value. Since BalusC suspect that this is an EL bug, I reproduce my bug in a small, readable and reproducible code. This code run on Glassfish v3.0.1 b22
