Jasper Rosenberg commented on FREEMARKER-60:
--------------------------------------------
Yes, definitely make sense, it just took me a minute to understand the
interplay and thought others might run into the same thing. Thanks!
Also, another extension might be to allow an optional parameter on the #import
directive to indicate whether it should be lazy or not.

> Key: FREEMARKER-60
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FREEMARKER-60
> Project: Apache Freemarker
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: documentation
> Affects Versions: 2.3.26-incubating
> Reporter: Jasper Rosenberg
> Priority: Trivial
>
> If I am understanding what is going on correctly, it appears that when you
> turn on lazy imports, #global variables defined in that file will not be
> defined unless something else first accesses the imported file's namespace.
> This is a bit of a weird case so it might just be worth documenting.
> Alternatively, you could say that if you have #global variables defined in a
> file it disqualifies it from being lazily imported.
