Add support for growable arrays (ArrayLists)
--------------------------------------------
Key: JEXL-79
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JEXL-79
Project: Commons JEXL
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Sebb
Fix For: Later
JEXL now has fixed arrays. Trying to access a non-existent entry generates an
Exception.
Might be useful to allow for the creation and manipulation of growable arrays,
e.g. using ArrayList.
Writing to a non-existent entry should just create the value; reading should
return null and empty.
This would need a new syntax.
Perhaps:
list=[1,2,3,...]
and
emptyList=[...]
I did wonder about using (), but that would clash with method invocation.
Other ideas welcome!
