Re: Possible bug with macros that start with the word 'set'?

[Christoph . Reck]

yes it's known (to some of us)... but it is not yet in Bugzilla...

Could you please submit it to bugzilla?

Thanks,

Is the default behavior for Velocity to interpret a macro name that starts
with 'set' as the set directive instead of determining if it is a macro name
instead?
Example:

#macro( setPageAttributes )
...
#end
Using #setPageAttributes() results in a Velocity parse error (as follows).

Encountered "PageAttributes" at line ..., column ....
Was expecting one of:
    "(" ...
    <WHITESPACE> ...
Is this a bug or a known 'feature'?  It seems that the VTL parser should be
smart enough to check for whitespace and/or parenthesis after a directive,
as #set'RestOfMacroName' should be distinguishable with #set( .... ) or #set
( ... ).
Thanks,
