  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getMethodInfo

          public abstract MethodInfo getMethodInfo​(ELContext context)

      Parameters:
        `context` - The EL context for this evaluation
      Returns:
        Information about the method that this expression resolves to
      Throws:
        `java.lang.NullPointerException` - If the supplied context is `null`
        `PropertyNotFoundException` - If a property/variable resolution failed because no match was found or a match was found but was not readable
        `MethodNotFoundException` - If no matching method can be found
        `ELException` - Wraps any exception throw whilst resolving the property

    - #### invoke

          public abstract java.lang.Object invoke​(ELContext context,
                                                  java.lang.Object[] params)

      Parameters:
        `context` - The EL context for this evaluation
        `params` - The parameters with which to invoke this method expression
      Returns:
        The result of invoking this method expression
      Throws:
        `java.lang.NullPointerException` - If the supplied context is `null`
        `PropertyNotFoundException` - If a property/variable resolution failed because no match was found or a match was found but was not readable
        `MethodNotFoundException` - If no matching method can be found
        `ELException` - Wraps any exception throw whilst resolving the property or coercion of the result to the expected return type fails

    - #### isParametersProvided

          public boolean isParametersProvided()

      Returns:
        This default implementation always returns `false`
      Since:
        EL 3.0

    - #### isParmetersProvided

          @Deprecated
          public boolean isParmetersProvided()

      Deprecated.
      Use `isParametersProvided()`
      Returns:
        Always `false`
      Since:
        EL 2.2 Note: The spelling mistake is deliberate. isParmetersProvided() - Specification definition isParametersProvided() - Corrected spelling
