Ate Douma commented on SCXML-277:
---------------------------------

Jexl3 now initializes the Jexl Engine using final values for strict and silent. 
Dynamically changing these no longer work, hence the setters no longer are 
meaningful.

I agree the current getters and flags are now confusing, although they might be 
useful if/when someone wants to extend JexlEvaluator.

Furthermore, while I introduced these flags in SCXML-183 I no longer think 
these are useful to retain, as the default Jexl3 configuration (strict, 
non-silent on expression exceptions) are more and most practical.

For the same reasoning, the changes I recently needed to introduce with 
SCXML-258 to allow/keep strict=false by default (for Jexl only) also no longer 
are practical, and made the API (up to the SCXMLExecutor) more complex/ugly.

I'll create a new issue to drop these as no longer needed.


Whoever really needs to use Jexl in a non-default way like with strict=false 
and/or silent=true can extend the JexlEvaluator class and override its 
createJexlEngine() method.

> After SCXML-254, the functions _setJexlEngineSilent_ and 
> _setJexlEngineStrict_ were removed from the JexlEvaluator, with no apparent 
> replacement.
> Interestingly, the underlying functionality and getters for the silent and 
> strict flags remain.
