           Summary: Factorizing VelocityEngine instance among servlets is
                    not possible
           Product: Velocity
           Version: 1.5
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: Tools
        AssignedTo: velocity-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: claude@renegat.net


When one uses several servlets that all inherit VelocityViewServlet, one may
want to factorize the instance of VelocityEngine along all servlets, typically
by overriding initVelocity(), getVelocityEngine() and getVelocityProperty() so
that they refer to a static instance of VelocityEngine.

But it's not possible because VelocityViewServlet makes several direct
references to its private member 'velocity' whereas it should use
getVelocityEngine().

I'll try to contribute a 'subversive' patch if I figure how to do it :-)
