Is there aw ay to refer to a constant in a visual force "rendered" expression

Hi all,

 

I am trying to do something like this:

        <apex:outputText rendered="{!state=SHOW}">This is the dashboard</apex:outputText>
 

where SHOW is a constant in my controller.(Rather than hard code numbers in my visual force pages).

 

Is there a way to do this.

try something like

 

public string getRendereredConstant(){
return 'Show';
}
 
and in the VF page
 
 
<apex:smileysurprised:utputText rendered="{!renderedConstant}">This is the dashboard</apex:smileysurprised:utputText>
 
 Not sure if any property of a tag can take an Apex getter method though.

Thanks Paul, 
 
I realized that could be done. Of course, I was trying to avoid creating one such method in my controller for each and every constant in my state machine. 
 
 
Thanks for the help, anyway!
