Hi, Why don't you just assign $things to an array with 1 element instead of just to the string object? If you do this then you definitely shouldn't have problems.
Hope this helps, Sayed Ibrahim Hashimi www.cise.ufl.edu/~sih -----Original Message----- From: e v a n l e o n a r d [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2005 1:42 PM To: velocity-user@jakarta.apache.org Subject: "For each" on an object? Hello, I am trying to create a macro that can either take a single string parameter, or an array of strings. The code looks something like this: #macro(get $things) #foreach($thing in $things) ## do something... #end #end What I would like to happen is that if $things is only a single object and not a collection, for it to be assigned to $thing, and then the inner code run only once. This way foreach loops would be useful over more variable input. Has there been any thought about this already? Or, how would others solve this problem?
