Where can I find more information about Velocity Directive? I would
like to write one but so far it doesn't work...
I would like to do something like this:
#useSomething("/WEB-INF/file.xml")
#doSomething("nodeA")
#doSomething("nodeB")
#end
I created two directives, one for #useSomething (as BLOCK) and the
other for #doSomething (as LINE). Somehow Velocity doesn't parse
#doSomething. What should I do to make my #useSomething recognize
#doSomething?
Thanks

I guess you have note yet registered them in the velocity engine?
Look at
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-velocity/src/java/org/apache/velocity/runtime/RuntimeInstance.java?rev=HEAD
in the initializeDirectives() method how it loads the default and user directives.
Location of the resource defining the Default directives is in
RuntimeConstants.DEFAULT_RUNTIME_DIRECTIVES
Which points to the file:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-velocity/src/java/org/apache/velocity/runtime/defaults/directive.properties?rev=HEAD
An example of setting up an user directive is in:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-velocity-dvsl/src/java/org/apache/tools/dvsl/DVSL.java?rev=HEAD
in the method setStylesheet(Reader) and line:
ve.setProperty("userdirective", "org.apache.tools.dvsl.directive.MatchDirective");
But it should be possible to setup several user directives in the
velocity.properties file via the proper configuration-syntax use.
Another example of a configured user directory is in
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-velocity/contrib/temporary/localdirective/
Maybe an initial instruction for custom user directives could be placed
in the Wiki?
http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-velocity/
