Re: New property expression langauge: MVEL

2006-11-18 Thread Chris Brock

You should note that the actual template parser and expression parser are
completely different.  The template parser itself has control-flow
constructs, but the expression parser alone does not.  Also, you can even
drill down and just use the PropertyAccessor in MVEL.   So it's possible to
squelch out some of the higher level functionalities based on whatever API
integration point you choose.

 The current expressions possible with Wicket are fast and allow for
 enough flexibility for most purposes.
 
 I don't think it is something we should add to core. But I'm
 completely fine with having someone create a wicket-stuff project for
 it.

 Hello,

 There is a new property expression language called MVEL. If you look at
 http://wiki.mvflex.org/index.php?title=MVEL_Language_Reference you can
 see it is quite powerful. It also claims to be very fast.

 Perhaps it is appropriate to use MVEL as Wicket's default property
 language?
 Or do you think it is too powerful?

 Regards,
  Erik.
