/**
*
* Creates and evaluates Expression and Script objects.
* Determines the behavior of Expressions & Scripts during their evaluation with respect to:
*
* - Introspection, see {@link Uberspect}
* - Arithmetic & comparison, see {@link JexlArithmetic}
* - Error reporting
* - Logging
*
*
* The setSilent
and setLenient
methods allow to fine-tune an engine instance behavior
* according to various error control needs. The lenient/strict flag tells the engine when and if null as operand is
* considered an error, the silent/verbose flag tells the engine what to do with the error
* (log as warning or throw exception).
*
*
* - When "silent" & "lenient":
*
0 & null should be indicators of "default" values so that even in an case of error,
* something meaningfull can still be inferred; may be convenient for configurations.
*
*
* - When "silent" & "strict":
*
One should probably consider using null as an error case - ie, every object
* manipulated by JEXL should be valued; the ternary operator, especially the '?:' form
* can be used to workaround exceptional cases.
* Use case could be configuration with no implicit values or defaults.
*
*
* - When "verbose" & "lenient":
*
The error control grain is roughly on par with JEXL 1.0
*
* - When "verbose" & "strict":
*
The finest error control grain is obtained; it is the closest to Java code -
* still augmented by "script" capabilities regarding automated conversions & type matching.
*
*
*
*
* Note that methods that evaluate expressions may throw unchecked exceptions;
* The {@link JexlException} are thrown in "non-silent" mode but since these are
* RuntimeException, user-code should catch them wherever most appropriate.
*
* @since 2.0
