new
From Documentation
Object new(Object cls);
- i.e. it calls CommonFns.new_(Object)
Instantiates the given class. It assumes the given class has a default constructor.
Paramters
- cls - the class. It could be an instance of either String or Class.
Usage
You can use it to convert a number to the correct type(class), ${c:int(1)}
.
Notice that a number specified in EL is interpreted as long by default. For example, in ${c:new('foo.Mine', 10)}
, 10 is interpreted as long. If you're using 5.0.5 and prior, you have to convert it to integer manually : ${c:new('foo.Mine', c:int(10))}
.
