i just try to understand what id the description for this method because the appian API, doesn't offer nothing:

We have a plugin called IFM Manager and it worked until 18.2.8 patch. And we took a look at the java code and this method is not returning the same value as the previous version of appian.

We couldn't find any reference for this method.

I reach to the following conclusion after some self study:

found the implementation class.. found the difference between the 2 classes, but I still don't understand what is this method:evaluateExpressionInVariableContext for. So if someone can help me with a robust description I'll be more than thankful.

regards,
