ok folks, i think the time has come; here's a build for Engine 1.6:
http://people.apache.org/~nbubna/velocity/engine/1.6/
please kick the tires and report any and all nitpicks soon. PLEASE
try it out and look for problems. (yes, i am begging!) assuming no
one sees any problems, i'll call for a release vote next friday.
thanks,
nathan
p.s. this release should rock; here's a rough list of new things in
this release:
Major memory and speed performance improvements
varargs support for object method calls
#evaluate( $stringthatcontainsvtl )
#define( $body ) for VTL blocks as references #end
#break for ending #foreach loops prematurely
Static utility methods via context.put("Math", Math.class)
fixes for many annoying little syntax/parsing bugs
#parse( "mymacros.vm" )
CommonsLogLogChute, ServletLogChute
Fixed and much improved StringResourceLoader
velocimacro.max.depth
programmatic inclusion of macro libraries
can now call fixed-length list methods on arrays
$velocityHasNext for #foreach loops
configurable connection timeout for URLResourceLoader
Uberspect chainability and link-ability
consistent, correct line numbers and macro/template stacks in logs and
exceptions
