JSTL to get an object in portlet session?

[Vito Andolini]

Hi, I'm trying to code a JSF portlet on WebSphere Portal 6. I have put values into the portlet session, however I cannot pull them out of the portlet session using jstl. Your typical

<c :-o	 ut value="${sessionScope.myValue}"/>    

doesn't work because the jstl is looking in the HttpSession, not in the PortletSession.

Anyone know how to use jstl to access a variable in the portlet session?

Hi,
I'm having the same problem I can't access portlet session using JSTL in the Portal (Websphere Portal 6.0).

I have to use <%=renderRequest.getPortletSession().getAttribute("comment")%>

I saw that something here that might help:

Hi, i can't use any of the jstl core tags. not even the <c:if>, <c:forEach works. does this not work at all in jsf portlets?
can anyone help me out of this?

thanks

Can you cast it to a PortletSession?

I see the other posts date from mid-2008, but anyway: This is probably a bug in the IBM Struts Portlet Framework. PK92740 did the trick for me...

Hope it helps!
