Description
When using a tag with a JSF Expression Language (EL) expression that performs a numeric operation, such as:
```
```
The following error is thrown:
`Cannot convert [Welcome to PrimeFaces!!!] of type [class java.lang.String] to [class java.lang.Long]
`
Here, testView.string is a String property (Welcome to PrimeFaces!!!), and the comparison with a numeric expression 56 * 1 leads to a type mismatch.
