http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41869 Summary: Should EL (Expression Language) expressions result in the TagData.REQUEST_TIME_VALUE object? Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.20 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Unknown AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a custom tag with attributes defined in the TLD file as allowing run- time expression values, meaning: <rtexprvalue>true</rtexprvalue> I also have a TagExtraInfo class that I am using to validate the values provided. Inside my TagExtraInfo sub-class I have code such as this: Object attr = data.getAttribute("groupSize"); if ( attr != null && !attr.equals(TagData.REQUEST_TIME_VALUE) { and so on. When, in my JSP, I provide attribute values such as "<%= 10 * 14 %" (JSP scriplet) I do indeed get the TagData.REQUEST_TIME_VALUE object back on this call. However, when I instead have an EL value, something like "${groupSizeValue}", I do not received the REQUEST_TIME_VALUE distinguished object back. I receive a String object, containing the text "${groupSizeValue}". Is this the correct behavior? Everything I have read (books, Google searches, etc.) seems to point me in the thinking that this is a bug. >From looking at the tomcat 5.5.20 and 5.5.23 source code, I see where the JspAttribute (nested class of Node) is created. In the Validator class, line 1117, is the creation for this object passing the constant "false" for the "expr" argument (5th argument to the 1st ctor of this class). I believe it is line 1117 that would be getting executed since the if statement preceding this is: if (el.containsEL() && !pageInfo.isELIgnored()) { So, my question is, why would an EL expression when EL is not being ignored be considered not an expression? -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
