Will Glass-Husain resolved VELOCITY-126:
----------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Assign To: (was: Velocity-Dev List)
After thinking about this, I believe we should keep the intent of current
behavior. Comments are interpreted in double quote strings and ignored in
single quote strings. I agree with Claude this is a little odd, but there's a
certain logic there none the less. Regardless, we can't change it as existing
users may depend on this behavior.
There was an additional problem that caused the exception. The final character
before the ## was being chopped off. I've fixed this bug which should remove
the exception. I also added more test cases into "interpolation.vm" to test
different situations.
"test##test" => "test"
'test##test' => 'test##test'
"######" => ""
My advice is to use single quotes when you want ## symbols to appear in a
String.
> String containing '##' is treated as unterminated String.
