How to nest EL inside EL?

Question

I have Java enum type and I would like to get from `myEnum.name()` the associated i18n value. I tested that : ``` <h:outputLabel value="#{rb.#{login.myEnum}}" /> ``` (`rb` is my i18n variable defined in JSF faces-config.xml) but it doesn't work. I want EL expression that will be converted into `#{rb.KEY1}` and after `key1` or `clé1` or `schlüssel1` etc if the locale selected is English, French or German. How can I do it?

Accepted Answer

There is no need to try to use `#{}` inside `#{}` (and anyway its illegal...)

You should access it with the help of `[]` (like accessing a map)

Try it like this

```
<h:outputLabel value="#{rb[login.myEnum]}" />
```
