Context of EL expression within XML flow definition

[skostopoulos]

Hi,

one bit of information I am missing from the documentation and could not find in the forums either:

In which context are the ${...} style expressions inside a flow definition XML document evaluated? I know that one can access ${flowScope...} and ${flashScope...}, but what other objects are available there?

Thanks for the help,

Stefan

Check the comments embedded in the XSD for exact info, but in most cases the expressions are evaluated against the RequestContext, so ${flowScope.foo} is basically RequestContext.getFlowScope().get("foo").
