Description

It's not possible to parse scripts like

x.size(0)

or

x.empty(0)

because of current syntax restrictions.

empty and size are perfectly valid method identifiers in java, and though uncommon, can be declared with arguments. As of now Jexl allows only to call parameterless empty() and size() methods
