In the Velocity User's Guide it seems pretty straight forward to use methods in templates. I tried, but could not make it work. Can someone tell me what I did wrong?
Thanks.
This is my code
@Test
public void testVelocity() {
Velocity.init();
VelocityContext map = new VelocityContext();
map.put("test", "Success");
map.put("ok", "OK!");
map.put("func", new Object() {public String test() {return "Yay!";}});
map.put("func2", new Object() {public String test(String t) {return t+t;}});
String template = "${func.test()} $test $func2.test($ok)";
StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
Velocity.evaluate(map, writer, "", new StringReader(template));
assertEquals("Yay! Success OK!OK!", writer.toString());
}
and this is the output:
org.junit.ComparisonFailure:
Expected :Yay! Success OK!OK!
Actual :${func.test()} Success $func2.test($ok)
Variable substitutions seems to work fine, but not method calls.
Please help.
