Mike Kienenberger resolved VELOCITY-947.
----------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Bug
I'm pretty sure this is a matter of setting configuration parameters rather
than a bug. YLet me know if ihat turns out not to be the case, and I'll reset
the status it as "Won't fix" instead of "Not A Bug"
> Input macro variable not changed outside scope

> Key: VELOCITY-947
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-947
> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Engine
> Affects Versions: 1.7.x
> Reporter: Fabio Nascimento Brandão
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: variable_velocity.tar.gz
>
>
> I am migrating an application from Velocity Engine 1.5 to 1.7 (I am planning
> to migrate to 2.x later) and I found a different behavior between 1.5, 1.6.x
> and 1.7 versions.
> If you have this template:
> {code:java}
> #macro(testMacro $variable $newValue)
> #set($variable = $newValue)
> #end
> #set($testevar = 'INCORRECT')
> Var before: $testevar
> #testMacro($testevar 'TEST OK')
> Var after: $testevar
> {code}
> The output for the versions 1.5, 1.6, 1.6.2, 1.6.3 and 1.6.4 are:
> {code:java}
> Var before: INCORRECT
> Var after: TEST OK
> {code}
> And for versions 1.6.1 and 1.7 are:
> {code:java}
> Var before: INCORRECT
> Var after: INCORRECT
> {code}
> In 1.5, the set inside macro was changing the referenced variable outside
> macro's scope. In 1.6.1 and 1.7 the variable is not changed.
> I think this change was introduced by this issue:

> Before the change, the context was updated with the key from getRootString()

> I am attaching a project with the tests. You can change the velocity version
