Mark Newton updated VELOCITY-901:
---------------------------------
Description:
Upon upgrading to Velocity 2.0 from a very old version (1.4) hyphens in
identifiers throw a ParseException.
To verify what was happening, I did a clean install of velocity 2.0 to test
your example code. After running the unmodified "example2.vm" successfully I
added an identifier with a hyphen and the parse error occurred.
Apologies if I am missing something (e.g. spec change on identifiers). If this
is an issue that will take a while to fix, please let me know so that I can
change out the hyphens to underbars in id's in my template sets.
Attached are: 1) code snippet 2) parse exception msg 3) cl used to invoke
velocity 2.0 upon example2.vm
Best Regards

## code snippet
#set($test-var-w-hyphen = "test")
test-var-w-hyphen : $test-var-w-hyphen

[main] ERROR org.apache.velocity.parser - example2.vm: Encountered "-" at line
20, column 11.
Was expecting one of:
"[" ...
<WHITESPACE> ...
<NEWLINE> ...
"=" ...
