Re: [Springframework-developer] FreeMarker

[<jue...@we...>]

Darren,

I agree regarding the amount of time available for testing: If you feel =
that you won't be able to test it properly in time, then don't commit it =
to the main source tree but rather to the sandbox.

The FreeMarker 2.2/2.3 issue is quite important: 2.3 is in "preview" =
state - not very convincing... This is a strong argument for *not* =
including it in Spring 1.0 final but indeed delaying it till 1.1 M1.

We can still drop FreeMarker support into a Spring 1.0.x point release =
when we feel the time is right, for example when a FreeMarker 2.3 RC is =
finally out.

BTW, have you already tested Velocity 1.4 RC1? Is it a drop-in =
replacement for Velocity 1.3.1 with our VelocityView?

Juergen

It was mainly concerns over the amount of time available for testing =
that
made me assume 1.1 was a better target than 1.0-final - I'd not =
considered
1.0.x point releases.  My code is based on FM 2.3 which isn't final yet
and is apparantly not backwards compatible with the current stable =
2.2.x,
so I'd like to see if any of the inconsistencies affect us materially.=20
(On that point, what version of FM do you use in production apps =
Cameron?=20
I'm assuming 2.3 since you mentioned usage of
ObjectWrapper.setSimpleMapper)

Having said that, I'm happy if you're happy - so when the stuff's ready =
to
go I'll commit it :)
