Getting error .. Unable to parse EL function ${class} [duplicate] - java

Currenty I have a web project with JSF 1.2 and Facelets running in tomcat 6.0.18.0. I decided to upgrade the servlet container, thus i deployed in tomcat 7 and all seemed ok until we hit one view using my custome facelet functions.
javax.el.ELException: Failed to parse the expression [{pz:instanceof(object,'com.project.domain.MyClass')}]
Caused by: org.apache.el.parser.ParseException: Encountered " ":" ": "" at line 1, column 5. Was expecting one of:
"}" ...
"." ...
"[" ...
This error occurs when parsing the following code:
<ui:repeat var="object" value="#{objects}">
<ui:fragment rendered="#{pz:instanceof(object,'com.project.domain.MyClass')}">
...
If i understand correctly it throws an error because of the colon in the expression . I have tracked it down to the jasper-el that come with in the tomcat/lib directory, and if I replace jasper.jar and jasper-el.jar with the ones from tomcat 6.0.18 everythign works well.
Has anyone else had this problem before upgrading their tomcat? And How did they resolve it?
Could I deploy in production tomcat 7 with these jasper jar from tomcat 6, or could this cause further problems.

This is actually a misleading exception. It has a different underlying cause. The function name instanceof is invalid.
The EL 2.2 specification says the following:
1.14 Reserved Words
The following words are reserved for the language and must not be used as
identifiers.
and eq gt true instanceof
or ne le false empty
not lt ge null div mod
Note that many of these words are not in the language now, but they may be in the
future, so developers must avoid using these words.
and
1.19 Collected Syntax
...
Identifier ::= Java language identifier
...
Where the Java language identifier stands for keywords like instanceof, if, while, class, return, static, new, etc. They may not be used as variable/function names in EL. In case you have properties with those names, use the brace notation instead like so #{bean['class'].simpleName} instead of #{bean.class.simpleName}.
This was been fixed in Tomcat 7.0.4 or somewhere near before this version as indicated by issue 50147 wherein someone else pointed out the same problem as you have. So, to solve your problem, you have to rename your EL function name to for example isInstanceOf or something.

Add this line in catalina.properties ([tomcat folder]/conf), and it should fix the issue.
org.apache.el.parser.SKIP_IDENTIFIER_CHECK=true
However, you should not use the reserved words.

You can also try changing the syntax. I had the same exact problem with code that I was maintaining when we were moving from Tomcat 6 to 7. I had to change myobject.class.name to myobject['class'].name. After I made this change my code worked perfectly again.

Great hint, indeed! I had to change in my jspx ${instance.class.simpleName == ...} with ${instance['class'].simpleName eq ...}.
I was moving from vFabric on tomcat 6 to vFabric on tomcat 7

Issue in addPlugInSingleRowFunction upgrading Esper version from 5.3 to 8.3

In our existing application we are using Esper Version 5.3.
We have added few addPlugInSingleRowFunction() to use it in EPL as below --
final Configuration cepConfiguration = new Configuration();
cepConfiguration.addPlugInSingleRowFunction("toNumber", Double.class.getName(), "parseDouble");
cepConfiguration.addPlugInSingleRowFunction("toBoolean", Boolean.class.getName(), "parseBoolean");
This was working fine in 5.3 version.
Post upgrading to 8.3 above code changed as per Esper documentation --
cepConfiguration.getCompiler().addPlugInSingleRowFunction("toNumber", Double.class.getName(), "parseDouble");
cepConfiguration.getCompiler().addPlugInSingleRowFunction("toBoolean", Boolean.class.getName(), "parseBoolean");
But once the sendEventBean() method is called to send a Event to runtime we are seeing below exception every time.
Surprisingly events are getting matched as per the statements present in runtime even if below exception are coming. Though we are not sure whether some events are not matching or not.
Can someone please help on this?

You could turn on compiler logging (config.getCompiler().getLogging().setEnableCode(true);) and make sure you have INFO level logging. You can inspect "StatementAIFactoryProvider_a4bd241445010f45474e4598e34521ca1b2836db_stmt450.m8" at line 161 to see what the problem is. Sounds like a null value gets passed to Double.parseDouble. But since I don't have the complete code its hard to say.

synonyms() error in wordnet

I want to use synonyms () described in 'Intro to the tm package' for R. It uses the wordnet package. The wordnet package downloaded from CRAN does not have Dict (dictionary) in its directory. I downloaded it from the Princeton site and copied it over to the directory. After using sys.setenv() and setDict() for setting paths, I still get this error:
Error in sort(unique(unlist(lapply(synsets, getWord))))
error in evaluating the argument 'x' in selecting a method for function 'sort': Error in unique(unlist(lapply(synsets, getWord))) :
error in evaluating the argument 'x' in selecting a method for function 'unique': Error in .jcall(synset, "Ljava/util/List;", "getWord") :
java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "t"
when I try synonyms("company", pos = "NOUN") or another English word in place of 'company'. The problem is in getSynonyms() called from synonyms(). Any idea on how to fix this problem?
Different combinations lead to different input string NumberFormatException. My Java is version 1.8. I tried all the online resources. I added two paths to PATH for R's bin and RJava's jri. Discussion on the exception indicates it is a string to numeric conversion issue. I have made sure that Java to R linkage (via rJava) works (URL: https://www.rforge.net/rJava/ ).

I have no idea about what I'm doing wrong. Any Ideas?
Thanks you a lot.
I looked at the top line on your exception, and see com.hp.hpl.jena.ontology.impl.TransitivePropertyImpl.
Googling for that leads to a version of the source code. It may not be exactly the same version as you're using, but is probably close enough to be informative. Reading the code leads to these questions:
Does your Model have a profile? It must.
Does the profile support Transitivity? It must.
Are you combining Transitive with something else that it's incompatible with?

Mysterious ANTLR error

All I know is that it's stopping antlr from generating, I apologize. Here's the log file:
(10): internal error: /Bridge/bridge.g : java.lang.IllegalStateException: java.lang.NullPointerException

org.antlr.Tool.getRootGrammar(Tool.java:626) org.antlr.Tool.process(Tool.java:459)
org.deved.antlride.runtime.Tool2.main(Tool2.java:24)
I got the same error with a simple grammar for logical formulas. For me the problem was, that ANTLR could not find an obvious start rule because I had a recursion on my intended start rule. Adding a new rule pointing to the recursive one did the job (see http://thesoftwarelife.blogspot.com/2008/07/antlr-frustrations.html).
It's a pity that ANTLR IDE does not correctly forward the error message. On the command line i get:
warning(138): Formula.g:0:1: grammar Formula: no start rule (no rule can obviously be followed by EOF)
I had the same problem yesterday. Not sure if my case is identical to yours but it worth a try. I had a rule named annotation like this:
annotation
: AT class declaration?
-> ^(ANNOTATION class declaration?)
;
And I wanted to parse sub annotations in curly braces so I did:
subAnnotation:
: CURLY_START annotation CURLY_END
-> ^(ANNOTATION annotation)
;
This was given me the same error has yours. So, I end up wondering with it is not working. Even if I'm unsure, I think the problem is the recursion of the annotation rule that was causing the error. So, I ended up doing this:
annotationValue:
: CURLY_START subAnnotation CURLY_END
-> ^(ANNOTATION subAnnotation)
;
subAnnotation
: AT class declaration?
-> ^(ANNOTATION class declaration?)
;
This resolved my problem. Like I said, I don't know if this fix can be applied to your problem. Moreover, I thought that ANTLR was able to deal with non-left-recursive rule. Maybe someone with a better knowledge of the tool could confirm it.
I must admit I did not try the suggestion of #BartKiers, maybe it would also solve the problem.

meaning of #(#) characters

In documentation code I see some things like this:
/*
* #(#)File.java 1.142 09/04/01
what does characters like #(#) meaning?
#(#) is the character string used by the Unix what command to filter strings from binaries to list the components that were used to build that binary. For instance what java on AIX yields:
java:
23 1.4 src/bos/usr/ccs/lib/libpthreads/init.c, libpth, bos520 8/19/99 12:20:14
61 1.14 src/bos/usr/ccs/lib/libc/__threads_init.c, libcthrd, bos520 7/11/00 12:04:14
src/tools/sov/java.c, tool, asdev, 20081128 1.83.1.36
src/misc/sov/copyrght.c, core, asdev, 20081128 1.8
while `strings java | grep '#(#)' yields:
#(#)23 1.4 src/bos/usr/ccs/lib/libpthreads/init.c, libpth, bos520 8/19/99 12:20:14
#(#)61 1.14 src/bos/usr/ccs/lib/libc/__threads_init.c, libcthrd, bos520 7/11/00 12:04:14
#(#)src/tools/sov/java.c, tool, asdev, 20081128 1.83.1.36
#(#)src/misc/sov/copyrght.c, core, asdev, 20081128 1.8
#(#) was chosen as marker because it would not occur elsewhere, source code controls systems typically add a line containing this marker and the description of the file version on synchronisation, expanding keywords with values reflecting the file contents.
For instance, the comment you list would be the result of expanding the SCCS keywords %Z% %M% %R%.%L% %E% where the %Z% translates into #(#).
From (hazy) memory, that was the tag used by SCCS back in the "good old days". Given that (to my knowledge), BitKeeper uses SCCS underneath, it could be BitKeeper.
It is usually something that is added automatically by the version control system.
That construct has no special meaning in Java. It is just some text in a comment.
It looks like something that's inserted by a version control system.
