Still there.

Perhaps a trim() in here?

public class JavaModifyBlockDescr implements JavaBlockDescr {
    private int start;
    private int end;
    private String modifyExpression;
    private List<String> expressions;
   
    public JavaModifyBlockDescr( String modifyExpression ) {
        this.modifyExpression = modifyExpression.trim();
        this.expressions = new ArrayList<String>();
    }

   Wolfgang,

   What version of MVEL are you using? can you check if you still
have the error with the latest version: 2.0.18?
