JSTL format tag?

Question

I have a custom java.text.Format and would like to use it in my JSP. Is there a JSP/JSTL tag that can format an object using a custom java.text.Format? I'm looking for something similar to <fmt:formatNumber> and <fmt:formatDate> except that an custom format can be used.

I know that I can write my own tag but am curious if there's an existing solution for this.

Answer 1

No there is not. You have to write your own custom tag.
