You can find more about the syntax at www.ognl.org, but here are some examples compared to WebWork:
Ognl -- WebWork -------------------- "name" -- "name" :) "person.name" -- "person/name" "map["blah"]" -- "map['blah']" "array[0]" -- "array[0]" ???? -- "../name" That's about it! Haven't figured out the ".." issue yet. We may need to extend Ognl's language to add something like this. -Pat ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rickard Öberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, December 28, 2002 3:02 AM Subject: Re: [OS-webwork] Ognl as replacement for WW EL > Patrick Lightbody wrote: > > So the current XWork code uses the existing WW expression language as is, > > only using Ognl for setting/getting properties as well as type conversion.
