Nathan Bubna commented on VELOCITY-618:
---------------------------------------
Yeah, i know very well how bad it is. But it's been this way a long time and
this upcoming release is still just a minor version one. And yeah, i know
about the \$alt problem. This is why i essentially never use \ for escaping.
It long ago became second nature to just use ${esc.d}alt (since i pretty much
always have VelocityTools available). Anyway, we can take the escaping
discussion over to VELOCITY-623.
I'll try and get the rest of this strict mode stuff in shortly (sans the
escaping part).

> Key: VELOCITY-618
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-618
> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Engine
> Reporter: Byron Foster
> Fix For: 1.5.1, 1.6
>
> Attachments: MacroAndVarEscape.patch,
> strictPropertyAndVariable_3.patch
>
>
> The given patch against trunk adds a new option 'runtime.references.strict'.
> When set to true, invalid property references will throw a
> InvalidMethodException. For example $foo.bar will throw an exception if the
> object contained in $foo has no such property as bar. Any kind of reference
> to bar will cause an exception including:
> #if(#foo.bar)
> #set($foo.bar = "junk")
> #set($foo.getBar())
> etc...
