This document tracks the changes in Velocity between releases.

1.0b2

Make the distribution have CRLF for all of the text files (JSS). Fixed release packaging to create things in the right directory structure (JSS). Re-added 'include' support for Configuration. (JVZ) Fixed VMProxy bug when reference arg was null. (#1074) (gmj) Fixed nullpointer problem in cache refresh in ResourceManager (reported by Ilkka Priha) (gmj) VelocityServlet now respects the 'default.contentType' property again. That must have fallen out during the 'request process' rework in VelServlet. (reported by csterg@aias.gr) (gmj) Changed AnakiaTask and TexenTask to use the canonical template file path rather than the literal string specified. Motivated for ease of gump-tion. Also added failonerror to the testcases.xml for the same reason. (gmj) Added Sam's suggestion for normalizing \n[\r] when comparing results to expected results in the testbed via BaseTestCase (gmj) Qualified import statments in Generator.java. Added tests for automatic boolean mapping in TexenTestCase.java. Added default boolean mapping to texen for properties used with the contextProperties option. Allow variants on boolean values in Configuration.java, and changes to relevant templates in testbed. Added default objects to context in TexenTask.java. (JVZ) Documentation changes to Configuration.java (DLR) Augmented the MethodInvocationException message in ASTMethod to make the stacktraces more useful - noted from some traffic on Turbine list. (gmj) Added powered by logo. Look in xdocs/images/powered-by-logo.psd/.gif (JSS) Changed the internals of the Configuration class so that setProperty(K,V) will replace the value at K with V; addProperty(K,V) works the way setProperty(K,V) used to: if there is a value already stored at K then V is added to the vector. If nothing is being stored at K then the scalar V is simply added. setProperty(K,V) is basically a short form for clearProperty(K)/addProperty(K,V). Also added setConfiguration(C), so that an application using velocity could easily take a subset of the application configuration using C.subset(velocityProps) and set the whole velocity configuration at once. This is now how the velocity service works in Turbine. (JVZ) Added support to the Runtime/Velocity classes for addProperty(K,V). (JVZ) Added support to Runtime/Velocity classes for setConfiguration. (JVZ) Confirmed that the build.bat works on Win98 as well as made the classpath that the build.bat generates equal to the one that build.sh generates. (JSS)
