Here's a taste: > > - Your macros can now be called with bodies when you want: > #macro(foo)Here is $bodyContent#end > #...@foo()body content!#end > - Quotes can be escaped in strings by doubling them: > #set( $foo = "$person said, ""$comment"" " ) > #set( $bar = 'Joe said, ''Hi!'' ' ) > - The flawed #literal directive has been replaced with: > #[[ This is included but not parsed, so #if and $foo need no escaping.]]# > > Also included are namespacing improvements, better #break and #stop, > bracketed index syntax, and more! For full details, please see the > change log: > http://velocity.apache.org/engine/devel/changes-report.html > > This should work as a drop-in replacement for Velocity 1.6.3 in the > vast majority of cases.
