containsObject is an NSArray method, but these objects are actually Entity Modeler's non-WO versions of the EO classes, which are java.util.List/java.util.Set, so if it has any chance of working you will need to use contains instead containsObject. I've never really tried to do this, though, and I don't know what the actual limits of the evaluation engine in velocity are. You're also not showing where the "code" variable came from ... was that a getEntityNamed("something") assignment earlier?
