-----------------------------------------
Velocity Tools 2.0 is not compatible with Velocity 2.0.
> Velocity Tools 2.0 docs do not list Velocity 1.6.2 as a runtime dependency
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: VELTOOLS-175
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELTOOLS-175
> Project: Velocity Tools
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Nate Chadwick
> Priority: Major
>
> When testing Velocity 2.0 tools with Velocity 2.0. A couple of the generic
> 2.0 tools error out with a missing dependency on the runtime Log class. This
> came up in testing the xml tool and the field tool. Looking at the 2.0
> stable tool sources they do import this class.
>
> {code:java}
> org.apache.velocity.runtime.log.Log
> java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/velocity/runtime/log/Log
> Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
> org.apache.velocity.runtime.log.Log{code}
>
> After downloading the source tarball for Velocity Tools 2.0 is looks like the
> POM is referencing 1.6.2 of the Velocity Engine, and as Velocity 2.0 no
> longer includes the org.apache.velocity.runtime.log.Log package, that
> explains the runtime error.
>
> {code:java}
> <dependency>
> <groupId>org.apache.velocity</groupId>
> <artifactId>velocity</artifactId>
> <version>1.6.2</version>
> </dependency>{code}
> The fact that the tools jar is version 2.0 is misleading as it is actually
> compiling with velocity 1.6 not Velocity 2.0.
> I think in the least the [dependency documentation
> page|http://velocity.apache.org/tools/2.0/dependencies.html] needs updated to
> indicate that Velocity Tools 2.0 required Velocity 1.6.2 instead of 1.5+.
> In the best the 2.0 tools should be compiling against the 2.0 engine.
