Henri Biestro updated JEXL-437:
-------------------------------
Assignee: Henri Biestro
> Semicolons not actually optional between function calls on separate lines
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JEXL-437
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JEXL-437
> Project: Commons JEXL
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.3, 3.4.0
> Environment: JEXL 3.4.0 (also tested on 3.3)
> OpenJDK 23.0.2 (Red Hat, Inc. 23.0.2+7)
> Linux 5.15.167.4-microsoft-standard-WSL2 amd64
> Reporter: William Price
> Assignee: Henri Biestro
> Priority: Major
>
> The syntax documentation states that "Statements are optionally terminated
> with a semicolon" but I'm finding that semicolons are *required* when
> invoking a script-defined function multiple times, with each invocation on a
> separate line.
>
> {code:java}
> let values = [...]
> function append(const value) {
> values.add(value)
> }
> append(1)
> append(2)
> return values {code}
>
> h3. Expected result:
> {code:java}
> [1, 2, ...] // list size 2 containing integers 1 and 2{code}
> h3. Actual Result:
> {code:java}
> org.apache.commons.jexl3.JexlException$Ambiguous: @7:1 ambiguous statement
> error in 'append(2)'
> at
> app//org.apache.commons.jexl3.JexlEngine.createScript(JexlEngine.java:411)
> {code}
> h3. Workaround:
> Terminating line 6 with a semicolon ({{{}append(1);{}}}) gets around the
> error.
