Java Unified Expression Language :: JUEL Project

History of Changes

developer: cbe context: code type: update: Use StringBuilder instead of StringBuffer (performance).
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Update API sources from glassfish.

developer: cbe context: code type: fix thanks to: Frédéric Esnault.: ListELResolver was missing in SimpleResolver's default chain of resolver delegates.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Update API sources from glassfish.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Minor performance improvements in type conversions and number operations.

developer: cbe context: code type: update: Relaxed matching of return type for nonliteral MethodExpression's. The actual method return type is checked be assignable to the expression's expected return type.
developer: cbe context: code type: add: Let ExpressionFactory's default constructor read properties from el.properties.
developer: cbe context: admin type: update: Updated API classes to include new API methods ExpressionFactory.newInstance() and ExpressionFactory.newInstance(java.util.Properties).
developer: cbe context: build type: add: Package Jars with META-INF/services/javax.el.ExpressionFactory to register JUEL as EL service provider.
developer: cbe context: code type: add: Added Builder.Feature.NULL_PROPERTIES to resolve ${map[null]}.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Generified TypeConversions.coerceToEnum(...) and TypeConversions.coerceToEnum(...).
developer: cbe context: code type: fix: Coerce null function parameters whose type is primitive.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Minor scanner cleanup.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Increased default cache size to 1000.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: ExpressionFactoryImpl no longer final to allow customization by subclassing. E.g. using JUEL with JSF requires calling a default constructor.

developer: cbe context: code type: add: Added support for method invocations as in ${foo.bar(1)} (disabled by default).
developer: cbe context: code type: fix: Reject identifier instanceof.
developer: cbe context: docs type: add: Added "Advanced Topics" section.
developer: cbe context: code type: remove: Removed support for system property de.odysseus.el.factory.builder.
developer: cbe context: design type: update: Moved default tree cache implementation to package de.odysseus.el.tree.impl.
developer: cbe context: design type: update: Moved node implementation classes to package de.odysseus.el.tree.impl.ast.
developer: cbe context: code type: remove: Removed deprecated methods from SimpleResolver.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Do not coerce null function parameters.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Minor improvemnents in BooleanOperations and TypeConversions.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Replaced JFlex scanner by handcoded scanner.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Lazy initialize parser's lookahead token list.

developer: cbe context: docs type: add: Added specification issues on number literals.
developer: cbe context: code type: remove: Finally removed the old JavaCC parser.
developer: cbe context: docs type: add: Added some more Javadocs.
developer: cbe context: code type: fix: Avoid NumberFormatException when parsing integer/floating point literals.
developer: cbe context: code type: remove: Removed staticTreeBuilder.DEFAULT constant.
developer: cbe context: code type: fix: Take builder and expected type into account when comparing tree expressions.

developer: cbe context: docs type: add: Added documentation (HTML and PDF).
developer: cbe context: code type: add: Added TreeValueExpression.isLeftValue().
developer: cbe context: code type: remove: Removed ExpressionNode.isLiteralValue().
developer: cbe context: build type: add: Added more jar manifest attributes.
developer: cbe context: build type: update: Let javac include line and source debug information.
developer: cbe context: code type: add: Added secondary cache (WeakHashMap) to TreeCache.Default.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Lazy initialize SimpleContext.ELResolver.
developer: cbe context: code type: add: Configure default builder class via system property de.odysseus.el.factory.builder.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Added @Override annotations.
developer: cbe context: code type: add: Added SAX XML filter sample.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Simplified SimpleResolver (now only handles top-level properties) .
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Deprecated SimpleContext.setValue(...) and SimpleContext.setFunctions(...). These methods will be removed in 2.1.0.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Lots of minor refactorings.

developer: cbe context: code type: fix: Re-throw NumberFormatException in number coercion as ELException.
developer: cbe context: code type: fix: Expected type now mandatory for value expressions.
developer: cbe context: docs type: add: Added SourceForge logo to JUEL home page.
developer: cbe context: code type: add: Added a calculator sample.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Now use a new hand crafted top-down parser and a JFlex generated scanner. This almost doubles parsing performance!
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Moved the Javacc parser to package de.odysseus.el.tree.impl.javacc. By default, it is excluded from the JUEL jar file.

developer: cbe context: code type: update: Include EL api sources from glassfish now (the tomcat6 code was too buggy). The sources are available under Sun's CDDL and are redistributed here. Also added a note on that in the README.txt file.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Use pure Javacc parser. We no longer use the JJTree preprocessor. The AST classes are now Javacc independent and could easily be reused with other parser generators.
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Improved unit tests
developer: cbe context: docs type: add: Added some documentation
developer: cbe context: code type: update: Improved parse exception formatting
