Access to static java class fields and methods

[Oleg Barmin]

Hello,

I have the following enum

package org.towatch.routes;

public enum Sort {
    BEST, POPULAR;

} 

So I want to test Sort values in my template in following way:

{% if sortVar == Sort.BEST %}
{% else %}
{% endif %}

But template not recognizes Sort as the class. How to access static java fields and methods from template?

The only way I found is

{% if sortVar == sortVar.BEST %}
{% else %}
{% endif %}

But this is not good code practice.
