    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JEXL-109?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12996371#comment-12996371 ] 

Henri Biestro commented on JEXL-109:
------------------------------------

Do you have a test case for the kind of expression you'd like to use?
For instance, something like the following:
<code>
    public void test109() throws Exception {
        JexlEngine jexl = new JexlEngine();
        Object value;
        JexlContext context = new MapContext();
        context.set("foo.bar", 40);
        value = jexl.createExpression("foo.bar + 2").evaluate(context);
        assertEquals(42, value);
    }
</code>
If you are really trying to define a variable named "foo.bar.", this is not a bug but an RFE that I'd vote against adding without a use-case.
Cheers
