----------------------------------
Summary: Allow new to use class identifier
Key: JEXL-379
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JEXL-379
Project: Commons JEXL
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 3.2.1
Reporter: Henri Biestro
Assignee: Henri Biestro
Fix For: 3.3
WHAT:
The Java syntax for new is easier/nicer to use than the current JEXL one that
forces to use a fully qualified class name (FQCN) to instantiate an object. The
improvement will allow using the Java new syntax using either an FQCN (as
identifier) or just an identifier.
HOW:
The grammar is augmented to allow the 'new qualified_class_name(<args>)'
syntax. Provision is to be made to allow an 'import'-like mechanism so class
identifiers can be resolved (JexlContext extension).
