I have found at http://www.freebok.net/help/velocity4.html the following
example:
$sisyphus.pushRock()
## Velocity assumes I mean $sisyphus.getRock()
Its not discussed in detail what the author meant by his example, but I
wonder how velocity assumes method calls.
That example means that you can shorten $sisyphus.getRock() to
$sisyphus.rock but you can't shorten $sisyphus.pushRock() because
Velocity only checks for some functions when expanding the "short hand
notation".
I don't get that at all. I mean: I understand what you're saying Henning.
But I don't get how what you're saying is what that author of the snippet
was trying to say. I always assumed that someone had a momentary lapse, and
that it was just erroneous. Because after all, how can Velocity literally
assume that "xxxxRock()", where xxxxx is any number and combination of
letters, means "getRock()".
Heck, I should just compile an example and see for myself, but talk about
violation of the principle of least surprise, if it turns out that Velocity
actually would assume that pushRock() meant getRock().
