Nathan Bubna updated VELOCITY-534:
----------------------------------
Attachment: varargs.diff
Here's a proposed patch for this. I need to spruce up and flesh out the tests
a bit more, but i think i have most of the bases covered.
And for the observant, yes, this would allow vararg method calls in VTL for any
method whose final parameter is an array. Java 5 is not needed at all. The
only backwards compatibility issue would be that some previously broken method
calls might now work. I think that's fine though.
Thoughts? I'll try to provide a link to a build shortly to make this easy to
play with. I'd love some feedback on this (re: implementation, effects,
performance, etc) before i commit it.
> Support varargs in method calls

> Key: VELOCITY-534

> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.5

> Fix For: 1.6, 2.0

> Attachments: varargs.diff

>
> If possible and as much as possible without breaking JDK 1.3/JDK 1.4 runtime
> support, i would like to see us support varargs for method calls. So,
> public class MyTool {
> public List combine(List... lists) {
> ...
> }
> }
> #set( $twoLists = $myTool.combine($list1, $list2) )
> #set( $threeLists = $myTool.combine($list1, $list2, $list3) )
> will work out of the box, without need for the user to rebuild Velocity
> themselves.
