[jira] [Updated] (JEXL-383) Inconsistent behavior after overriding toBoolean method in JexlArithmetic

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JEXL-383?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Xu Pengcheng updated JEXL-383:
------------------------------
    Description: 
I tried to overriding "toBoolean" method of JexlArithmetic for 'strict' mode.
{code:java}
@Override
public boolean toBoolean(final Object val) {
  if (val == null) {
    return false;
  } else {
    return super.toBoolean(val);
  }
} {code}
 while executing code:

parameters:
{code:java}
a: null
{code}
but while executing scripts, the behavior is inconsistent
{code:java}
if (a) return 1 else return 2;  // returns 2
if (!a) return 1 else return 2; // expects return 1 but throws exception: variable 'a' is null{code}
 

what should I do to fix it? thanks!
