Hello,everyone,I work on the problem this whole afternoon... finally,I decided to end this with a macro: #macro(expr $expression) #set($temp--='#set($temp---'+"=$expression)"+'$temp---') #evaluate($temp--) $temp--- #end #set($a=2) #expr("$a*100+200")
which result in a 400. wait for an easier way from you . thanks 2009/7/20 lanxiazhi <lanxia...@gmail.com> > thanks Rupali, > I got this problem when I started to think that, can I simply output an > expression like #{1+2+200000*3+$a} without a varible? > > 2009/7/20 Rupali Gupta <r.gup...@mpstechnologies.com> > > Hi, >> >> >> >> Use $velocityCount in place where you need incremental value of some >> variable >> >> Eg: instead of, >> >> >> >> #set($a = 0) >> >> #foreach($mapping in $mappings) >> >> Do something.. >> >> #set($a = $a+1) >> >> >> >> <label for="journal-$a">Type something</label> >> >> >> >> Do it like: >> >> >> >> #foreach($mapping in $mappings) >> >> Do something.. >> >> <label for="journal- $velocityCount ">Type something </label> >> >> >> >> >> >> $velocityCount increase the value of variable incrementally, without >> having >> to use ($a= $a+1) >> >> >> >> I hope this helps! >> >> >> >> Thanks, >> >> Rupali >> >> >> >> >> >> _____ >> >> From: lanxiazhi [mailto:lanxia...@gmail.com] >> Sent: Monday, July 20, 2009 12:52 PM >> To: Velocity Users List >> Subject: Re: simple problem >> >> >> >> we know this #set($a = $a + 1) will change $a which in some cases may not >> be >> preferable...but thanks anyway. >> >> 2009/7/20 Alexander <the.malk...@gmail.com> >> >> Hi, >> >> >> >> Use >> >> >> >> #set($a = $a + 1) >> >> >> >> Correct me if Im wrong but if u use variable like this it would write >> "hello" on a single line, where is the problem? >> >> >> >> #set($newline="hello") >> >> $newline >> >> >> >> >
