Matteo Franci updated FREEMARKER-229:
-------------------------------------
    Description: 
First of all I want to thank you for the great work on Apache FreeMarker. The 
team I work with and I have been using on many projects.

As we are using more and more GraalVM native applications in our team, It would 
be nice to have some sort of built-in support.

Currently I only found a community support on [GraalVM reachbility 
metadata.|https://github.com/oracle/graalvm-reachability-metadata/blob/master/metadata/org.freemarker/freemarker/index.json]

So I created a github repo we are using to add GraalVM support to projects : 

[https://github.com/fugerit-org/freemarker-native]

NOTE: main limitations is that requires java 11+ because of [GraalVM SDK 
Substitute 
Annotation|https://www.graalvm.org/sdk/javadoc/com/oracle/svm/core/annotate/Substitute.html].
 this is needed to fix missing org.apache.log4j.MDC class in  
[https://github.com/apache/freemarker/blob/v2.3.34/freemarker-core/src/main/java/freemarker/log/_Log4jOverSLF4JTester.java#L35]

I had a look at the main repository : 

[https://github.com/apache/freemarker/tree/2.3-gae]

And maybe it is possible to include all the necessary changes in it, or build a 
"native support" module, alongside the main distribution.

What do you think?

If I can help you anyway I'm here.

Thanks in advance.

NOTE: here you can find more details on how GraalVM support has been added 
[https://github.com/fugerit-org/freemarker-native/blob/main/src/main/docs/native-support/index.adoc]
