Re: [el-dev] Service release for 6.0.1 API of Expression Language

[Arjan Tijms <arjan.tijms@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I staged the 6.0.1 API here, with the above mentioned PR as the only change compared to 6.0.0:

https://jakarta.oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/staging/jakarta/el/jakarta.el-api/6.0.1/

If there are no objections, I would like to officially release this soon.

Kind regards,

Arjan Tijms

Hi,

I discovered a severe bug here: https://github.com/jakartaee/_expression_-language/pull/240

Specifically, this bug prevents GlassFish (and I can't imagine anything other than every other implementation) to pass the TCK. 

The TCK will show this failure:

[INFO] 

[ERROR] Errors: 

[ERROR]   ELClientIT.optionalELResolverObjectInvoke:227->testOptionalELResolverInvoke:270 » NullPointer Cannot read the array length because "<local7>" is null

[INFO] 

It's seemingly impossible to bypass, since it comes from the API, and the code very much explicitly calls the problematic method with a null.

Kind regards,

Arjan Tijms
