Stephen Bolton commented on VELOCITY-896: ----------------------------------------- I came on here to check this exact issue I was seeing with # and $ and this is the first issue I see. I have some more info on the scope and cause of this issue. In a set the contents when using double quotes is treated as its own velocity template. This same issue occurs actually with any template that the last character is a $ or a #. The problem is related to this from [https://javacc.org/tutorials/tokenmanager|http://example.com] "Whenever the end of file <EOF> is detected, it causes the creation of an <EOF> token (regardless of the current state of the lexical analyzer). However, if an <EOF> is detected in the middle of a match for a regular expression, or immediately after a MORE regular expression has been matched, an error is reported." in Parser.jjt we handle <HASH : "#" > as a MORE. In this case it will always look ahead on the stream if it sees the # or $ and will fail when there are no more characters due to the stream already being closed. I have been looking more at JavaCC to see how this could be resolved and have experimented with a separate token that matches #<EOF> explicitly then treating that as text so it then never attempts to hit this case as a MORE. Not sure if anyone who has more experience on JavaCC wants to take this on or collaborate on a fix > Regression in the handling of String literal ending with a sharp sign >
