Methods

getCount()	Resolves into a Number telling the number of the current iteration within this loop. During the first iteration the value is 1. For example, the expression ${loopStatus.getCount() == 1} resolves into true only on the loop's first round. Using the shorthand form the expression becomes ${loopStatus.count == 1}.
getIndex()	Resolves into a Number telling the index of the current iteration within this loop. During the first iteration the value is 0. For example, the expression ${loopStatus.getIndex() == 0} resolves into true only on the loop's first round. Using the shorthand form the expression becomes ${loopStatus.index == 0}.
isFirst()	Resolves into a Boolean telling whether the current iteration is the first iteration (true) of the loop or not (false). For example, the expression ${!loopStatus.isFirst()} resolves into true on all iterations except the first. Using the shorthand form the expression becomes ${!loopStatus.first}.
isLast()	Resolves into a Boolean telling whether the current iteration is the last iteration (true) of the loop or not (false). For example, the expression ${loopStatus.isLast()} resolves into true on the loop's last round. Using the shorthand form the expression becomes ${loopStatus.last}.
