InterceptingResolver does not delegate convertToType

[tandraschko]

it doesnt matter if it supports a newer version or not, the min baseline is whats interessted
anyway, EL 3.0 is JavaEE7 and we are good

[Rapster]

Any chance to provide a reproducer? At least a sample...

ConvertToType looks like new in EL 3.0.

/**
     * Converts the given object to the given type. This default implementation
     * always returns <code>null</code>.
     *
     * @param context The EL context for this evaluation
     * @param obj     The object to convert
     * @param type    The type to which the object should be converted
     *
     * @return Always <code>null</code>
     *
     * @since EL 3.0
     */
    public Object convertToType(ELContext context, Object obj, Class<?> type) {
        context.setPropertyResolved(false);
        return null;
    }

JSF 2.3 supports EL 5.0 so this should be fine to add its the only missing method.

What I don't know is if this can be backported to 13.0.9 as 13 supports JSF 2.0+ while 14 supports JSF 2.3+.

OK confirmed I can't backport this to 13.0.9 per BalusC: https://stackoverflow.com/a/7237216/502366

JSF 2.3 uses EL 3.0 so PF 14 can add this but PF13 still supports JSF 2.0 so we can't.
