javax.faces.application.StateManager.SerializedView

This class was not marked Serializable in the 1.0 version of the spec. It was also not a static inner class, so it can't be made to be Serializable. Therefore, it is being deprecated in version 1.2 of the spec. The replacement is to use an implementation dependent Object.

Returns:

javax.faces.application.StateManager.getComponentStateToSave(FacesContext
FacesContext for the current request
context)

the distinction between tree structure and component state is now an implementation detail. The default implementation returns null.

FacesContext for the current request
context, String
View identifier of the view to be restored

state)

This method has been replaced by writeState(javax.faces.context.FacesContext, java.lang.Object).

Returns:

A valid instance of an ExpressionEvaluator.
javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext.getExpressionEvaluator()

As of JSP 2.1, replaced by JspApplicationContext#getExpressionFactory

Returns:

A valid instance of a VariableResolver.
javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext.getVariableResolver()

As of JSP 2.1, replaced by ELContext#getELResolver, which can be obtained by jspContext.getELContext().getELResolver().

Returns:

the Throwable that caused this JSP exception
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException.getRootCause()

As of JSP 2.1, replaced by getCause()

javax.servlet.jsp.el.ELException

javax.servlet.jsp.el.ELParseException

As of JSP 2.1, replaced by javax.el.ELException

javax.servlet.jsp.el.Expression

As of JSP 2.1, replaced by javax.el.ValueExpression

Returns:

The result of the expression evaluation.
javax.servlet.jsp.el.Expression.evaluate(VariableResolver
A VariableResolver instance that can be used at runtime to resolve the name of implicit objects into Objects.
vResolver)

Deprecated as a consequence of VariableResolver being deprecated. See corresponding docs for further information.

javax.servlet.jsp.el.ExpressionEvaluator

As of JSP 2.1, replaced by javax.el.ExpressionFactory

Returns:

The result of the expression evaluation.
javax.servlet.jsp.el.ExpressionEvaluator.evaluate(String
The expression to be evaluated.
expression, Class<T>
The expected type of the result of the evaluation
expectedType, VariableResolver
A VariableResolver instance that can be used at runtime to resolve the name of implicit objects into Objects.
vResolver, FunctionMapper
A FunctionMapper to resolve functions found in the expression. It can be null, in which case no functions are supported for this invocation.
fMapper)

Deprecated as a consequence of VariableResolver and FunctionMapper being deprecated. See corresponding docs for further information.

Returns:

The Expression object encapsulating the arguments.
javax.servlet.jsp.el.ExpressionEvaluator.parseExpression(String
The expression to be evaluated.
expression, Class<T>
The expected type of the result of the evaluation
expectedType, FunctionMapper
A FunctionMapper to resolve functions found in the expression. It can be null, in which case no functions are supported for this invocation. The ExpressionEvaluator must not hold on to the FunctionMapper reference after returning from parseExpression(). The Expression object returned must invoke the same functions regardless of whether the mappings in the provided FunctionMapper instance change between calling ExpressionEvaluator.parseExpression() and Expression.evaluate().
fMapper)

Deprecated as a consequence of FunctionMapper and Expression being deprecated. See corresponding docs for further information.

javax.servlet.jsp.el.FunctionMapper

As of JSP 2.1, replaced by javax.el.FunctionMapper
