Nathan Bubna commented on VELOCITY-540:
---------------------------------------
I should note that the $macro namespace was added via VELOCITY-704.
> Make local directive part of Velocity engine core
> -------------------------------------------------

> Key: VELOCITY-540
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-540
> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: Engine
> Reporter: Christoph Reck
> Fix For: 1.7, 2.0
>
>
> I prefer #local vs velocimacro.context.localscope because
> you can create macro libraries that allow declaring local vars
> without polluting the namespace, but also enables setting global
> variables. See the thread ending on 16.04.2007 "RE:
> velocimacro.context.localscope"
> with the #springBind example for such a case.
> If #local is not part of the core, it cannot be used for general purpose
> velocity macro libraries...
