ExpressionFactory
ValueExpression
for later
evaluation. Use this method for expressions that refer to values.
This method should perform syntactic validation of the expression.
If in doing so it detects errors, it should raise an
ELException
.
createValueExpression
in class ForwardingExpressionFactory
context
- The EL context used to parse the expression.
The FunctionMapper
and VariableMapper
stored in the ELContext
are used to resolve functions and variables found in
the expression. They can be null
, in which case
functions or variables are not supported for this expression.
The object
returned must invoke the same functions and access the same
variable mappings
regardless of whether
the mappings in the provided FunctionMapper
and VariableMapper
instances
change between calling
ExpressionFactory.createValueExpression()
and any
method on ValueExpression
.
Note that within the EL, the ${} and #{} syntaxes are treated identically. This includes the use of VariableMapper and FunctionMapper at expression creation time. Each is invoked if not null, independent of whether the #{} or ${} syntax is used for the expression.
expression
- The expression to parseexpectedType
- The type the result of the expression
will be coerced to after evaluation.public MethodExpression createMethodExpression(ELContext context, String expression, Class expectedReturnType, Class[] expectedParamTypes)
ExpressionFactory
MethodExpression
for later
evaluation. Use this method for expressions that refer to methods.
If the expression is a String literal, a MethodExpression
is created, which when invoked, returns the String literal,
coerced to expectedReturnType. An ELException is thrown if
expectedReturnType is void or if the coercion of the String literal
to the expectedReturnType yields an error (see Section "1.16 Type
Conversion").
This method should perform syntactic validation of the expression.
If in doing so it detects errors, it should raise an
ELException
.

expression
- The expression to parseexpectedReturnType
- The expected return type for the method
to be found. After evaluating the expression, the
MethodExpression
must check that the return type of
the actual method matches this type. Passing in a value of
null
indicates the caller does not care what the
return type is, and the check is disabled.expectedParamTypes
- The expected parameter types for the method to
be found. Must be an array with no elements if there are
no parameters expected. It is illegal to pass null
,
unless the method is specified with arugments in the EL
expression, in which case these arguments are used for method
selection, and this parameter is ignored.Copyright © 2013 Seam Framework. All Rights Reserved.
