* add clarity for reinterpret docs
Helps fix#3292
* update reinterpret docs phrasing
We agreed to use "encoding" to be friendly to user exposed messaging instead of "encoder" and "decoder" that is used internally.
* fix serializeReinterpret() test json
* changed to reflect the function's acceptance of either simple string or regex
* cast p into a Pattern
* cast p into a Pattern
* Changed test to reflect the new output from function.
* Add utility helpers to create array of comparable items
* Extend sort() to handle arrays with nulls
- Instead of NullPointerException on nulls, sort them last
- add JSON helpers to return Comparable[] in addition to Object[]
- Non-homogenous arrays or arrays with non-primitive
objects (array or object) are not sortable
- Add tests for both new and old sort functionality
* Refactor GREL Get tests
- move helper up to RefineTest
- move tests to the correct module
* Extend forEach() to support JSON objects - fixes#3149
Also add tests for existing forEach forms in addition to the new one
* Add a couple more tests
* Fix ToDate test failure - fixes#3026
Instead of computing offset from UTC at current
point in time, use the offset from the parsed
date so that we're not affected by crossing
a daylight savings time boundary.
* Fix date parsing with locale as first format string
Also refactors for simpicity, restore some dropped tests,
and restores previous behavior of considering a bad
format string an error instead of silently ignoring it.
It does NOT address another issue which was introduced
in May 2018 of treating date/times without timzone
information as UTC instead of local.
* Restore error checking and messages
* Save & restore default timezone for tests
Also add some ToDos for places where LocalDate is being misused.
* Fix two deprecated methods usages
* Test ToNumber conversions
* Test behavior of all functions when passed 0 or 8 arguments
There are 16 which fail currently on 0 args (return null or
False instead of EvalError), but have been whitelisted until
we can verify whether it's safe to change them without introducing
compatibility issues.
There are 19 which fail to return an error on too many (ie 8) args.
Fix the true.type() == "boolean" instead of java.lang.Boolean.
Remove all the references to "error" result in Type(). This will be addressed in:
@ToDo fix this with issue #2562
