Nathan Bubna commented on VELOCITY-375: --------------------------------------- thanks, Henning. this should help. of course, I don't like the addition of StringUtils (thus commons-lang) to core VelocityTools classes, especially just to check for an emptry string. i'll be undoing that change. :) also, i don't understand either the need for or accomplishment of your changes to the DataInfo class. from glancing over the patch, it looks like just another way to skin the same cat. can you explain that better? other than that, this looks pretty good, and i'll probably commit it mostly as is. > bad errors description > ---------------------- > > Key: VELOCITY-375 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-375 > Project: Velocity > Type: Improvement > Components: Tools > Versions: 1.1 > Environment: Operating System: All > Platform: All > Reporter: Stepan Koltsov > Priority: Minor > Fix For: Tools-1.2 > Attachments: velocity-tools.patch > > Hello, > I've created toolbox.xml like this: > <toolbox><tool/></toolbox> > (yes, empty <tool/> tag).
