Problem where executing NVelocity

[Med]

Hello,

I am working with NVelocity, I developed a project with C# and I download the sources of Nvelocity, I referenced Nvelocity Project in my C# project. When I execute my solution, i have this error :
"It appears that no class was specified as the ResourceManager.  Please ensure that all configuration information is correct."

this is the method where i obtain the error :

private void  initializeResourceManager() {
        /*
        * Which resource manager?
        */

        System.String rm = getString(NVelocity.Runtime.RuntimeConstants_Fields.RESOURCE_MANAGER_CLASS);

        if (rm != null && rm.Length > 0) {
        /*
        *  if something was specified, then make one.
        *  if that isn't a ResourceManager, consider
        *  this a huge error and throw
        */

        System.Object o = null;

        //UPGRADE_NOTE: Exception 'java.lang.ClassNotFoundException' was converted to ' ' which has different behavior. 'ms-help://MS.VSCC/commoner/redir/redirect.htm?keyword="jlca1100"'
        try {
            //UPGRADE_TODO: Format of parameters of method 'java.lang.Class.forName' are different in the equivalent in .NET. 'ms-help://MS.VSCC/commoner/redir/redirect.htm?keyword="jlca1092"'
            Type rmType = System.Type.GetType(rm);
            o = System.Activator.CreateInstance(rmType);
        } catch (System.Exception cnfe) {
            System.String err = "The specified class for Resourcemanager (" + rm + ") does not exist (or is not accessible to the current classlaoder.";
            error(err);
            throw new System.Exception(err);
        }

        if (!(o is ResourceManager)) {
            System.String err = "The specified class for ResourceManager (" + rm + ") does not implement org.apache.runtime.resource.ResourceManager." + " Velocity not initialized correctly.";

            error(err);
            throw new System.Exception(err);
        }

        resourceManager = (ResourceManager) o;

        resourceManager.initialize(this);
        } else {
        /*
                *  someone screwed up.  Lets not fool around...
                */

        System.String err = "It appears that no class was specified as the" + " ResourceManager.  Please ensure that all configuration" + " information is correct.";

        error(err);
        throw new System.Exception(err);
        }
    }

Somebody have a solution for this problem please.

Thank you

Hi-

You need to initialize it with a set of properties, and normally you just need to tell it where the nvelocity.properties file is, e.g.

    String absolutepath=@"D:\Path\To\nvelocity.properties";
    Velocity.Init(absolutepath);

Cheers!
