Claude Brisson commented on VELOCITY-904: ----------------------------------------- 2.x macros are more like functions than macros. Especially, the current documentation is wrong on this subject and needs to be updated. It's not that the `$test` argument shadows `$test.name`, it's that `$test.name` is evaluated beforehand. > Add a flag for better backward compatibility with null macro arguments > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: VELOCITY-904 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-904 > Project: Velocity > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Engine > Affects Versions: 2.0 > Reporter: Claude Brisson > Assignee: Claude Brisson > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.2 > > > See [this > comment|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-542?focusedCommentId=16621819&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-16621819] > : > {code} > #macro(testmacro $parameter) > $parameter > #end > #testmacro($return) > {code} > bq. which used to print "$return" (when $return is null or undefined) and we > now get "$parameter". > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@velocity.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@velocity.apache.org
