Hi Mike,

  Thank you for the insight.  :-)

ognl looks very powerful. Features like looking at statics could help simplify a lot of programs. Since ognl is able to process statements like these, it would be great to get errors on the compile-time side of the fence.

  Is there a ticket open for this, do you know?  I didn't see one up on Jira.

Thanks,
  Sanford

Yes, a very simple reason -- what you're doing is not supported. What you're describing is requested in WOL-930. you're using a static variable, not a normal binding. If you were using a regular keypath (tag = ~person.firstName + ' ' + person.lastName) it would validate. If you find it odd, you're welcome to submit a patch to remove this oddity. One man's oddity is another mans bitchy manually-parsed ognl binding. I haven't done anything more with ognl validation because the proper way to do anything more is to link to ognl in the plugin and actually walk the parse tree.
