Gilberto C Andrade updated CLK-306:
-----------------------------------

    Comment: was deleted

(was: I'm getting this RunTimeException: No Context available on ThreadLocal 
Context Stack while building the framework. The fix is to add the following 
statement in some test files:
MockContext context = MockContext.initContext();)

> I have been following both OGNL and MVEL (another expression language) 
> development the last couple of months. If we are going to make changes to 
> this here are some things you might find interesting:
> * OGNL 2.7.1 which is included in tapestry 4.1, now sports byte code 
> enhancement. This was added by one of the tapestry authors to make OGNL much 
> faster than its reflection mode. However in my testing 2.7.1 threw exceptions 
> every now and then. So still buggy.
> * MVEL (http://mvel.codehaus.org/) seems like a good replacement for OGNL. It 
> has good docs and is actively developed. They even fixed a bug I logged! Like 
> OGNL, MVEL also runs in two modes, either reflection or byte compiled. Unlike 
> OGNL, MVEL's reflection mode is faster than Click's reflection mode.
> I am no expert on this but according to the article below (from MVEL's 
> author), byte code enhancement have some problems in that generated classes 
> accumulate in java's perm space and will only be removed when their 
> classloader is removed.
> http://artexpressive.blogspot.com/2007/07/mvel-by-numbers-real-story.html
> So MVEL in reflection mode looks like an ideal solution here. The power of 
> OGNL with the performance of Click reflection.
> Table columns can again take advantage of expressions. For example to 
> aggregate a total for the row -> new Column("price * tax");
