RE: help - text within { } is not rendered by the engine
Hi Ricardo,
You are using the curly braces incorrectly. A normal velocity reference
looks like this:
$reference
You can optionally wrap the name in braces like this:
${reference}
If you want to use the silent mode place the ! After the $, like this:
$!{referece}
Velocity won't know what to think of:
$c1{name}
Because it parses $c1 at the reference, not {name}
Hope this helps.
Evan

Subject: help - text within { } is not rendered by the engine
Hi,I decided to post this question one more time in case this time someone
has an answer to this problem. I am using velocity 1.4. I am having problems
when rendering text that is enclosed within { }. Here's my velocity
template:Hello $name! Welcome to Velocity!$c1{name}$c2{phone}Here's the
output I get:Hello John! Welcome to Velocity!$c1{$c2{$name is a velocity
reference. $c1 and $c2 are not velocity references. So, what I was expecting
to get in the generated document is the following:Hello John! Welcome to
Velocity!$c1{name}$c2{phone}As shown above, I am not expecting velocity to
make any changes to the $c1 and $c2 lines. However, the engine is removing
the text after the '{' character. Any ideas on what is wrong with my
template? Thanks.

Re: help - text within { } is not rendered by the engine
I can replicate this behavior, and it looks like a bug.
If you have a $ followed by letters (something in the context or not
in the context), followed by a {, whatever follows the { is removed
until it gets to whitespace.
So $c1{something} - $c1{
$c1{something - $c1{
$c1{something} More text - $c1{ More text
$c1{something More text - $c1{ More text
If $c1 is in the Velocity context with a value Hello, then it is
$c1{something} -Hello{
$c1{something -Hello{
$c1{something More text -Hello{ More text
Not good behavior for a templating language.

You can always use the formal way: ${c1}{something} to make it work.

Re: help - text within { } is not rendered by the engine
But if $c1 is not in the context, you cannot get the following result
using Velocity no matter the Velocity code.
$c1{something}
Using your idea:
${c1}{something} - ${c1}{something}

Re: help - text within { } is not rendered by the engine
The following expression will do the trick:
$c1##
{Something}
Sorry for my previous answer. Next time I ll spend more time reading the
question :)

Re: help - text within { } is not rendered by the engine
perhaps as a workaround, try
#set( $D = '$' )
${D}c1{whatever}
disclaimeri didn't test it myself/disclaimer
