No, I didn't continue to do that. However, I chose another method, which let VelocityEngine loads all templates once the application starts. Velocity's ResourceLoader uses a cache and will load resources while they are modified. You can configure velocity.properties such as:
#file.resource.loader.cache = true #file.resource.loader.modificationCheckInterval = 2 webapp.resource.loader.cache = true webapp.resource.loader.modificationCheckInterval = 2 --bluejoe ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jason Tesser" <jasontes...@gmail.com> To: "Velocity Users List" <user@velocity.apache.org> Sent: Wednesday, July 08, 2009 6:32 PM Subject: Re: Serialize Template Object > Ohh I started to go there and turned back as I wasn't sure that was the best > direction moving forward.
