Is the EL depenent on javax.servlet or javax.servlet.jsp, or is it
completely independent and useable in non-servlet-container environments ?
There are some dependencies on servlet containers. For example, the EL
supports implicit objects, one of them being "pageContext", so if you
have an expression of the form "${pageContext}", it is evaluated to
the PageContext object, which exists only in a servlet environment.
No, in the EL API defined in JSP 2.0, a separate VariableResolver takes
care of all variable value lookup, including implicit variables if any.
The intention with the EL API is that it should not have any servlet or
JSP dependencies. Some minor tweaks will be included in JSP 2.0 PFD2
to be released pretty soon.
