Sorry in advance if this is a FAQ whose answer I haven't found...
Instead of writing:
#foreach( $container in $Containers )
#if( $container.prop("Generate") )
...stuff...
#end
#end
I'd like to indent the "#if" and its "#end", for the sake of better readability:
#foreach( $container in $Containers )
#if( $container.prop("Generate") )
...stuff...
#end
#end
But then I find the spaces before the "#if" and its matching "#end" show up in
the output, which I don't want to happen.
To get around this, I've implemented a somewhat hack-ish Template preprocesser: my resource
loader wraps a template's stream inside my own stream implementation which filters template
lines. That is, if a line starts with "<white-space>#blah", the initial spaces
are trimmed off.
That works, and isn't all that intrusive. But if "off-the-shelf" Velocity
already provides an easier way to accomplish the same thing, I'd prefer that...
No, there's no similar feature directly in Velocity yet.
