George Scott created JEXL-140: --------------------------------- Summary: Improvements for invoking static methods Key: JEXL-140 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JEXL-140 Project: Commons JEXL Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: George Scott Priority: Minor
Two related suggestions: 1. The documentation does not really describe how to call a static method from a JEXL script. I believe that it is done this way: class="".class; return class.forName("java.lang.System").getenv("test"); 2. Implementing a class() function that parallels the existing new() function would make calling static methods easier, helping to clean up scripts. The above example would become: return class("java.lang.System").getenv("test"); -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
