Major Description
I have an scenario where an xhml is included. The included file has a parameter with the same name as some outer variable. In the included file the parameter is ignored and the outer variable is used.
Some xhtml:
<c:forEach var="item" begin="1" end="3">
<div>
<ui:include src="templateContextTestInclude.xhtml">
<ui:param name="item" value="#
" />
</ui:include>
</div>
</c:forEach>
templateContextTestInclude.xhtml:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

Item: <h:outputText value="#

</ui:composition>
</body>
</html>
I found out that the "hierarchy" of VariableMappers is asked for a value before the 'DefaultVariableMapper' tests the current template/page context. That was not what I expected. Is that how it should be?
In JSF1 it works that way.
(If I change the VariableMapperWrapper locally to test the template/page context first the behaviour is as I would have expected (don't know if it is the right place 
):
public ValueExpression resolveVariable(String variable)
{
AbstractFaceletContext faceletContext = (AbstractFaceletContext) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getAttributes().get(FaceletContext.FACELET_CONTEXT_KEY);
//Check on page and template context
PageContext pageContext = faceletContext.getPageContext();
if (pageContext != null && pageContext.getAttributeCount() > 0)
{
if (pageContext.getAttributes().containsKey(variable))
{
ValueExpression returnValue = pageContext.getAttributes().get(variable);
if (_trackResolveVariables)
return returnValue;
}
}
TemplateContext templateContext = faceletContext.getTemplateContext();
if (templateContext != null && !templateContext.isParameterEmpty())
{
if (templateContext.getParameterMap().containsKey(variable))
{
ValueExpression returnValue = templateContext.getParameter(variable);
if (_trackResolveVariables)
{ _variableResolved = true; }
return returnValue;
}
}
ValueExpression ve = null;
....
)
Thanks in advance,
