Konrad Windszus updated SLING-10652:
------------------------------------
Description:
The HTL specification only refers to programming language agnostic types like
numeric, string or date. As the HTL Engine in Sling (or rather the use
providers) map the native types in either Java or JavaScript accordingly there
should be some information which native type can be translated into which HTL
type (and how this is done, in case this is not obvious). This is crucial as
e.g. in the context of SLING-10651 more types are now supported.
The following types are mentioned in the HTL spec
# Boolean
# String
# Number
# Date
# Collection
# Map
# Enum
It would be helpful to know how Java types are converted into those.
