Hi list (or probably rather Mike ;-), I am trying to get the year string automatically into my velocity project templates. I found two related JIRAs (http://issues.objectstyle.org/jira/browse/WOL-755, http://issues.objectstyle.org/jira/browse/WOL-1159) that are unresolved yet. Apart of the velocity variable ${Date) that was mentioned on this list and that returns a plain string of the long formatted timestamp which of course lacks date specific methods (e.g. in my case ${Date.get('yyyy')} to get '2010') I could not find any way to achieve my goal. I am going with the temporary hack now to get to it by extracting a substring: ${Date.substring(6,10)} but that smells fishy. I think it would be very helpful to add the GenericTools from the VelocityTools (http://velocity.apache.org/tools/devel/generic.html) for the processing of EOGenerator-, EOModelDoc- and WOLips Project-templates as this adds a bunch of useful classes.
Any thoughts on this? jw
