Henri Biestro commented on JEXL-234: ------------------------------------ The startsWith & endsWIth methods can be overloaded; the operator resolution will pick the most appropriate version based on signature. This can be implemented easily in a user-specialized version of JexlArithmetic. You are always welcome to submit a patch + tests. > Extend application of operators startsWith and endsWith from String to > CharSequence types > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JEXL-234 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JEXL-234 > Project: Commons JEXL > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 3.1 > Reporter: Dmitri Blinov > Priority: Minor > > It would be more useful to have operators {{=$}} and {{=^}} to work with > objects that support {{CharSequence}} interface, like {{StringBuilder}}, > which would have more broad usage then just with {{String}} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
