Nathan Bubna commented on VELOCITY-686:
---------------------------------------
I'm with Byron. I think this ought to work like a block created with #define.
> BlockMacro renders $bodyContent on #set

> Key: VELOCITY-686
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-686
> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Engine
> Reporter: Byron Foster
> Fix For: 1.7
>
>
> Given the following VTL:
> #macro(foo)#set($x = $bodyContent)#end
> #...@foo()bar#end
> renders to:
> bar
> I wonder about calling render on JJTBLOCK types in the ProxyVMContext get
> method. Do you think it would be better in ASTReference render?
> There is an interesting use case for BlockMacros which looks something like
> this:
> #macro(escXML)$tool.escXml($bodyContent)#end
> The above definition could be used to create a filter like the following:
> #...@escxml
> ## ... rendered stuff to be escaped
> #end
> $tool.escXml can intercept the writer and create a filter. But as it stands
> referencing $bodyContent renders the content making this use case impractical.
