Hello,

It seems that EL Function which serialized to ViewState can't be resolved when the object is deserialize. Because the jboss-el directly use "Class#forName(String)".
The code is as follows,

• org.jboss.el.lang.FunctionMapperImpl$Function.getMethod()


• The jboss-el which included with Seam 2.0.2.SP1/2.1.0.SP1 were implemented like as follows.

        public Method getMethod() {
            if (this.m == null) {
                try {
                    Class t = Class.forName(this.owner);
                    Class[] p = ReflectionUtil.toTypeArray(this.types);
                    this.m = t.getMethod(this.name, p);
                } catch (Exception e) {

I think the above code cause ClassLoader Scope Problem.
"Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()" should be used.

I found the jboss-el already had utility method for "Class.forName".
It's "ReflectionUtil#forName(String)" method. Please use this method.

May I report to JIRA?

Thanks.
