[jira] [Commented] (JEXL-306) Ternary operator ? protects also its branches from resolution errors

["Dmitri Blinov (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JEXL-306?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16859816#comment-16859816 ] 

Dmitri Blinov commented on JEXL-306:
------------------------------------

The following script throws an exception "Undefined property y"
{code:java}
var x = new ("java.lang.Object"); x.y ? 1 : 2{code}
I'm confused, is it a supposed behaviour? Should it return {{2}} just like in
{code:java}
x ? 1 : 2{code}

>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 3.1
>            Reporter: Dmitri Blinov
>            Assignee: Henri Biestro
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 3.2

> Consider the following test case (suppose its added to IfTest)
> {code:java}
>     @Test
>     public void testTernaryFail() throws Exception {
>         JexlEvalContext jc = new JexlEvalContext();
>         JexlExpression e = JEXL.createExpression("false ? bar : quux");
>         Object o;
>         jc.setStrict(true);
>         jc.setSilent(false);
>         try {
>            o = e.evaluate(jc);
>            Assert.fail("Should have failed");
>         } catch (Exception ex) {
>            // OK
>         }
>     }
> {code}
> The expected behavior is to fail with {{undefined variable...}} because neither {{bar}} nor {{quux}} is defined
