/**
* Context information for expression parsing and evaluation.
*
* To parse or evaluate an {@link Expression}, an ELContext
* must be provided. The ELContext
holds:
*
* - a reference to {@link FunctionMapper} that will be used
* to resolve EL Functions. This is used only in parsing.
* - a reference to {@link VariableMapper} that will be used
* to resolve EL Variables. This is used only in parsing.
* - a reference to the base {@link ELResolver} that will be consulted
* to resolve model objects and their properties
* - a collection of all the relevant context objects for use by
*
ELResolver
s
* - state information during the evaluation of an expression, such as
* whether a property has been resolved yet
* - a reference to {@link ImportHandler} that will be consulted to
* resolve classes that have been imported
* - a reference to the arguments for the active {@link LambdaExpression}s
* - a reference to the list of registered evaluation listeners
*
*
* The collection of context objects is necessary because each
* ELResolver
may need access to a different context object.
* For example, JSP and Faces resolvers need access to a
* {@link javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext} and a
* {@link javax.faces.context.FacesContext}, respectively.
*
* When used in a web container, the creation of
* ELContext
objects is controlled through
* the underlying technology. For example, in JSP the
* JspContext.getELContext()
factory method is used.
* Some technologies provide the ability to add an {@link ELContextListener}
* so that applications and frameworks can ensure their own context objects
* are attached to any newly created ELContext
.
*
* When used in a stand-alone environment, {@link StandardELContext}
* provides a default ELContext
, which is managed and modified
* by {@link ELManager}.
*
*
Because it stores state during expression evaluation, an
* ELContext
object is not thread-safe. Care should be taken
* to never share an ELContext
instance between two or more
* threads.
