Okay, I wrote too soon. I now see the escape tool and its hash method
in tools 1.4. My bad.
I still don't understand what, if anything, I need to do to configure my
application to use it. My present configuation is done entirely in Java:
private void init(ServletContext ctx) throws
VelocityInitializationException {
this.engine.setProperty(
RuntimeConstants.RUNTIME_LOG_LOGSYSTEM_CLASS,
"org.apache.velocity.runtime.log.Log4JLogChute" );
this.engine.setProperty("runtime.log.logsystem.log4j.logger",
"Velocity");
this.engine.setProperty("velocimacro.library",
"/resources/VM_global_library.vm");
this.engine.setProperty("resource.loader", "webapp");
this.engine.setProperty("webapp.resource.loader.class",
"org.apache.velocity.tools.view.servlet.WebappLoader");
this.engine.setApplicationAttribute("javax.servlet.ServletContext", ctx);
try {
this.engine.init();
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new VelocityInitializationException(e); // my own class
}
logHelper.info("following is initialization output from velocity");
}
I assume my configuration information would go in here somewhere, but
I'm not sure where, or if anything is necessary.
Is something necessary, or, assuming velocity-tools-1.4.jar is in
WEB-INF/lib, can I just start using $esc.hash without any other
configuration?

Also, the Tools 2.0 documentation seems written from the point of view
that you're upgrading from Tools 1.4. Since I don't currently
configure or use the Tools, I seem to be missing some key concepts. I
can't find the Tools 1.4 documentation.

Thanks. This sounds like the right way to go, yet I currently have a
nice simple configuration based on 1.4. The $esc.hash seems to be a
2.0 thing. I don't use the tools now and it seems like a fairly
heavy-duty upgrade to fix such a small problem, involving
configuration files, etc. that I don't require now. Is there
another solution that lies within the framework of Velocity itself?

Using Velocity 1.6.2 I wish to output the string "#####".
In my template, I code it "\#\#\#\#\#"
It renders as \#\#\#\#\#.
What am I doing wrong? Or how can I make it do what I want?
