      `expression` - The expression to convert
    Returns:
      XML view

  - ### checkScope

    public static void checkScope(String scope, Node n, ErrorDispatcher err) throws JasperException
    Checks to see if the given scope is valid.
    Parameters:
      `scope` - The scope to be checked
      `n` - The Node containing the 'scope' attribute whose value is to be checked
      `err` - error dispatcher
    Throws:
      `JasperException` - if scope is not null and different from "page", "request", "session", and "application"

  - ### checkAttributes

    public static void checkAttributes(String typeOfTag, Node n, JspUtil.ValidAttribute[] validAttributes, ErrorDispatcher err) throws JasperException
    Checks if all mandatory attributes are present and if all attributes present have valid names. Checks attributes specified as XML-style attributes as well as attributes specified using the jsp:attribute standard action.
    Parameters:
      `typeOfTag` - The tag type
      `n` - The corresponding node
      `validAttributes` - The array with the valid attributes
      `err` - Dispatcher for errors
    Throws:
      `JasperException` - An error occurred

  - ### booleanValue

    public static boolean booleanValue(String s)
    Convert a String value to 'boolean'. Besides the standard conversions done by Boolean.parseBoolean(s), the value "yes" (ignore case) is also converted to 'true'. If 's' is null, then 'false' is returned.
    Parameters:
      `s` - the string to be converted
    Returns:
      the boolean value associated with the string s

  - ### toClass

    public static Class<?> toClass(String type, ClassLoader loader) throws ClassNotFoundException
    Returns the `Class` object associated with the class or interface with the given string name.

    The `Class` object is determined by passing the given string name to the `Class.forName()` method, unless the given string name represents a primitive type, in which case it is converted to a `Class` object by appending ".class" to it (e.g., "int.class").

    Parameters:
      `type` - The class name, array or primitive type
      `loader` - The class loader
    Returns:
      the loaded class
    Throws:
      `ClassNotFoundException` - Loading class failed

  - ### interpreterCall

    public static String interpreterCall(boolean isTagFile, String expression, Class<?> expectedType, String fnmapvar)
    Produces a String representing a call to the EL interpreter.
    Parameters:
      `isTagFile` - `true` if the file is a tag file rather than a JSP
      `expression` - a String containing zero or more "${}" expressions
      `expectedType` - the expected type of the interpreted result
      `fnmapvar` - Variable pointing to a function map.
    Returns:
      a String representing a call to the EL interpreter.
