Velocity allows context chaining, see: http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/docs/developer-guide.html#Context%20Chaining
The overlay context can be cleared or discarded on discretion of the application. In an early application of mine, I used a servlet with a base context with constants and thread-safe tools, capsuled it in a read-only context, and finally overlayed it with a request context containing thread-unsafe tools, and request dependent values (query string, date, link tool, etc.) Now I would use the VelocityViewServlet with the ToolboxManager from the tools subproject to populate the contexts accordingly.

Hi, I'm writing the utility class which has different methods for different templates all of which share a common context. At the start of each method I want to ensure that context populated previously by any method is flushed. This is as good as flushing of all entries in the context. I did not see any vel- API for this. Any pointers? Any help is welcome. -- Thanks & Regards, Anagha
