Velocity users,
How can I do double evaluation in Velocity? If the value of an item on
the context is the name of an other item on the context, how can I get
the value of the second item?
For example, if the Java code does:
Velocity.init();
VelocityContext context = new VelocityContext();
context.put("A", "B");
context.put("B", "C");
template.merge(context, ...);
How can the Velocity template get the value "C" without explicitly
mentioning "B"? I have tried:
Value of value of A is: ${${A}}
Value of value of A is: ${ ${A} }
Value of value of A is: $!{$!{A}}
#set($localAAA = ${A})
Value of value of localA is ${${localAAA}}
Value of value of localA is $!{$!{localAAA}}
Value of value of localA is ${ ${localAAA} }
Value of value of localA is $!{ $!{localAAA} }
No luck... I can get it to generate "B" from "A", but I can't get
it to then lookup "B" to get "C"
Any ideas? Thanks!
