Method Detail

getValue

public final java.lang.Object getValue(Bindings bindings,
                                       ELContext context,
                                       java.lang.Class<?> type)

evaluate and return the (optionally coerced) result.

Specified by:

getValue in interface ExpressionNode

Parameters:

bindings - bindings containing variables and functions

context - evaluation context

type - result type

Returns:

evaluated node, coerced to the expected type

appendStructure

public abstract void appendStructure(java.lang.StringBuilder builder,
                                     Bindings bindings)

eval

public abstract java.lang.Object eval(Bindings bindings,
                                      ELContext context)

getStructuralId

public final java.lang.String getStructuralId(Bindings bindings)

Description copied from interface: ExpressionNode

Get the canonical expression string for this node. Variable and funtion names will be replaced in a way such that two expression nodes that have the same node structure and bindings will also answer the same value here.

For example, "${foo:bar()+2*foobar}" may lead to "${<fn>() + 2 * <var>}" if foobar is a bound variable. Otherwise, the structural id would be "${<fn>() + 2 * foobar}".

If the bindings is null, the full canonical subexpression is returned.

Specified by:

getStructuralId in interface ExpressionNode
