Spring 1.2.8 and Velocity Tools 1.2 (I tried 1.3 and there were loads of problems so I will make that move later).
yeah, Spring 2.x does a much better job of supporting VelocityTools 1.3. if it helps encourage you, know that our move to from Spring 1.2.x to 2.0.x was very smooth. They did an impressive job of keeping backwards compatibility for most users.
I put a log statement into the constructor and it gets called 8 times. See, with Spring, I load a DispatcherServlet for different servlet paths. Each one of those has its own toolbox (not sure if that's good or bad or indifferent). So, 8 toolboxes get loaded up so I see logs for 8 AlloyBrowserSnifferTool constructors. But none for init(). Very strange indeed.
i'm out of ideas for now, and i don't really have time right now to pull up the Spring 1.2.8 source and look around for other ideas on what it might be. perhaps later... in the meantime, maybe someone else here or on the spring forums can shed some light on this.
