Hi, The class has to be a public class. It was in the same package as the rest of the code, so dont know exactly why this is an issue. But there you go... thanks Jenny Mathew

I have created an object containing an HashMap internally and have passed that to the velocity template. The object has public non static method say a() which returns a String. However, on invoking the function in the template thus- $obj.a(), nothing is returned. However, $obj.getClass().getName() returns the expected answer. Any ideas why nothing is returned? thanks Jenny Mathew
