In this case VelocityServlet in velocity core is source of confusion and leads to unneeded dependency during build of velocity ( servlet.jar ) BTW, dependency to jdbc-2.0.jar specified in maven project.xml is source of confusion. Is this dependency really needed? Ant build seem not to use this. > i know nothing about the WebWorkVelocityViewServlet. > i presume that is > something WebWork created and supports. They subclassed VelocityServlet back then, and still use it. I just did a proof-of-concept by subclassing their servlet, and everything works fine except that log entries in velocity.log come 4 times... regards, ===== ----[ Konstantin Pribluda ( ko5tik ) ]---------------- Zu Verstärkung meines Teams suche ich ab Sofort einen Softwareentwickler[In] für die Festanstellung.
