Claude Brisson closed VELOCITY-677.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Assignee: Claude Brisson
Fix Version/s: 2.x
The parser relies on the javacc 'MORE' feature, explicitly telling that
**something** is needed after a $ or a #, so that $foo or #bar is a token in
itself. So changing this behavior is almost like rewriting the parser from
scratch.
So I think there is no other choice than to consider that this constraint is
part of the Velocity grammar. We should document it, though.
All the affected character sequences:
$
$!
#[[
#**
#*
#
> a '#' or '$' character at the end of VTL causes a ParseException
