Summary

0001327: Invalid handling of nonexistent properties in EL expressions

Description

JavaServer Pages 2.0 Specification, JSP.2.3.4 Operators "[]" and "."
-----
To evaluate expr-a[expr-b]:
? Evaluate expr-a into value-a
? If value-a is null, return null.
? Evaluate expr-b into value-b
? If value-b is null, return null.
? If value-a is a Map, List, or array:
...
? Otherwise (a JavaBeans object), coerce value-b to String
? If value-b is a readable property of value-a, as per the JavaBeans specification:
? If getter throws an exception: error
? Otherwise: return result of getter call
? Otherwise: error.
-----
If expr-a is a JavaBean and expr-b is a nonexistent property of that bean then error should occur. Tomcat and SJAS do so. But Resin silently returns null instead.
