Description Philippe Mouawad 2017-11-22 21:42:23 UTC

When I introduce those components, newbies don't understand why we don't expose OOTB this information which is very useful in many cases. Workaround is to use a Counter but why ?

I propose to name variable :
- "_jm_<controller name>_it"


If I missed an element that should also do, please update.
Thanks

2 remaining things before closing this Bugzilla:
- Documentation
- JUnit or Spcock Spec for ForEachController
- Possibly refactor LoopController tests which are not very readable
