Yes, but at some point, many Velocity users will "ship" an app with
"finished" templates that the customer won't modify. At that time, it
can make a lot of sense to just keep your templates in the classpath
or a non-classpath jar. Guessing from user examples and questions,
the ClasspathResourceLo
Amidst this dialog, the thought occurred to me that templates are made
to be customized (or what would be the point of Velocity?), and so I
realized that these template really don't belong in a Jar file anyway.
If they were, people who know little about Java would have to un-jar the
templates,
Can you put your jar in the classpath and use the
ClasspathResourceLoader instead of going through the file system?
I've never used the JarResourceLoader, and i haven't really got time
to dig in and see why it isn't working for you right now...

OK, I read up on JarResourceLoader() and put the appropriate resource
loader entries into the velocity.properties file, but now I have a new
problem in that if

I'm having some trouble with mergeTemplate() in that it seems to be
unable to open a template file if it is packaged in a jar file. In my
Java code, I use getResource("resources/velocity.template").getFile()
[from the "Class" object] to expand the relative location to a full
URL. This is for
