Byron Foster commented on VELOCITY-700:
---------------------------------------
<qoute>
FYI, i'm also still considering vetoing the #foreach( $user in $users index $i
) syntax, since i think it is ugly, unclear, and unnecessary. the more i look
at it, the more i dislike it. having that syntax in combo with this one would
make my eyes water.

I get the impression you don't like the 'index' syntax... :) I of course like
it or I would not have implemented it. I think it is superior to the current
magic variable approach which I think feels more like an after thought.
However, It is a non-issue, I will place the index functionality into the
directive.contrib directory.
Concerning the #break label issue, I don't know how I feel about it, I'm
indifferent.. I threw it out there to get some feedback.

> if the last argument to to the #foreach directive is a word, then that word
> serves as a label to indicate the break level for the #break directive. Par
> exemple:
> #foreach($user in $users outer)
> #foreach($email in $user.emails)
> #if($email.expired)
> #break(outer)
> #end
> #end
> #end
