--- Comment #3 from Arthur Fiedler <artfied...@gmail.com> --- Here is an example, and yes the current version of tomcat 8 trunk (downloaded after 8.0.14) public static void main(String[] args) { ELProcessor elp = new ELProcessor(); ELContext elContext = elp.getELManager().getELContext(); ValueExpression ve = ELManager.getExpressionFactory().createValueExpression(elContext, "Pri\\ce: \\$500.00 \\${true ? 'test':''} ${true ? 'test2':''}", String.class); Object ret = ve.getValue(elContext); System.out.println(ret); } I use the code similar to this. If you guys deem this in-fact a bug then it would be in generated parser definition -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
