data-export

I'm using a dataTable inside another dataTable . When I try to export (in any format) using the dataExporter i got something like: " org.primefaces.component.datatable.DataTable@1b675ca " instead of the inner-dataTable values.

The <p:cellEditor> is indeed not recognized by the PrimeFaces standard data exporters. I've previously reported this to the PF guys as issue 4013 with an example which not only mentions
