Hello, this is my first post on the list...
I have a problem using Cactus test suites with my servlet (which is
inherited from VelocityViewServlet) and I wonder if it could be due to the
way I'm using Velocity API.
I've summarized some informations below.
1) Servlet get a reference to a context object from handleRequest
method.
2) Servlet instanciate a "module" class, call my init(Context ctx)
method which hold a reference of that Context : this.innerContext =
(VelocityContext)ctx;
3) Context is used as usual (put() calls)
4) When work is done, the produce() method is called with writer =
response.getWriter():
public void produce(java.io.Writer writer)
{
Velocity.mergeTemplate(templateDir +
this.innerTemplateFileName,"Cp1252",this.innerContext,writer);
}
5) Return to servlet code, which return NULL to the caller
Problem is : when running under Cactus (as a Cactus test) the
Velocity.mergeTemplate call throws a NullPointerException.
I step debugged, everything is ok (I've checked : writer object,
innerContext object,filenames)
Stepping into Velocity API I can go as far as this method
(RuntimeInstance.java)
public Template getTemplate(String name, String encoding) throws
ResourceNotFoundException, ParseErrorException, Exception
{
return (Template) resourceManager.getResource(name,
ResourceManager.RESOURCE_TEMPLATE, encoding);
}
Stepping into getResource method is not possible...
So I have no idea of what is going wrong...
Any help appreciated, thank you
Note : I'm having problem to enable logging from velocity.properties (opposed
to loadConfiguration) so I can't provide a log trace.
