I used JEP in another project years ago. Didn't have any issues with it and I recall it was simple to use.

I see that it's rather pricey now - looking at the project, we were using vers. 2.2. Not sure what their pricing model was back then...

Rather than reinvent the wheel, I am trying to find a real simple library or 
java class that will just do boolean expression only parsing and allow me to 
evaluate the value of the symbols to true or false (via callback or sth like 
that)

For example and expression might look like this:

        "(canViewFood && canEatFood) || (canBuyFood && !canCookFood)"

I want a lib or java class that will walk the expression, calling my method to 
evaluate whether each symbol (canViewFood, canEatFood, etc.) is true or false 
which logically would turn the expression into something like this:

        "(true && true) || (false && !true)"


and then evaluate the entire expression to be true or false.

Possible candidates:
        https://javacc.dev.java.net/
        http://sourceforge.net/projects/jep/

Anyone have experience with this kind of application requirement and would 
share opinions and/or experiences?
