<br> Denis,<br><br> If you are using latest build from trunk (I'm not sure it already works in MR3), you can use a simplified MVEL syntax:<br><br>when<br> Person( address["business"].phone == "99999999" )
<br>then<br> ...<br>end<br><br> Although, the above will be converted into an inline-eval. Not as bad as a top level eval, but still more costly then using regular fields.<br><br> []s<br> Edson<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

we have found to access keys and values in the Map in the "when"
clauses is thru use on eval() which I know is a big no-no by rules purists. Is
there a better way, maybe some shorthand I'm not familiar with to deal
with Maps in the when clause?</span></font></p>
