       Body:
length will be a Long, and jexl is no good at Long -> int conversion.

Try this:

  <j:set var="pwd" value="password" />
  <j:set var="verDir" 
value="/home/dion/test/files/using/slashes/home/dion/test/files/using/slashes/home/dion/test/files/using/slashes/home/dion/test/files/using/slashes"
 />
  <j:set var="length" value="${pwd.length() + 1}" />
  <echo>
  1: ${ verDir }
  2: ${ length }
  2a: ${length.class.name}
  3: ${ verDir.substring( length.intValue() ) }
  4: ${ verDir.substring( 0, length.intValue() ) }
  5: ${ verDir.substring( 71 ) }
  6: ${ verDir.substring( 0, 71 ) }

    Summary: Jelly Execution
       Type: Bug

Description:
If I do;
<j:set var="length" value="${pwd.length() + 1}" />
<echo>
1: ${ verDir }
2: ${ length }
3: ${ verDir.substring( length ) }
4: ${ verDir.substring( 0, length ) }
5: ${ verDir.substring( 71 ) }
6: ${ verDir.substring( 0, 71 ) }
</echo>

I get the result;
1: /home/niclas/dev/opensource/avalon-sandbox/merlin-test/merlin-jmx-demo/versioning
2: 71
3: 
4: 
5: versioning
6: /home/niclas/dev/opensource/avalon-sandbox/merlin-test/merlin-jmx-demo/


Why on earths name doesn't substring( length ) work?
