Re: Velocity truth

Another try: 1) return false for a null object 2) return its value for a Boolean object, or the result of the getAsBoolean() method if it exists. 3) If directive.if.emptycheck = false (true by default), stop here and return true. 4) check for emptiness: - return whether an array is
