Hi all!
Is it possible to use static classes in a Velocity template?
not without some really ugly, in-template reflection hacks.
When using
context.put("bla", instanceOfBla);
a concrete instance of a class is needed, so this of course doesn't work
for a static class.
yeah, an instance is needed for normal usage. adding support for
static utility classes has been discussed for a long time.
unfortunately, we didn't get it done for 1.5, but it is high on my
list of things-i'd-like-to-make-time-for so that we get it into 1.6.
if you're interested in helping, here's the discussion:

Thanks a lot,
Sebastian
