[jira] Commented: (VELOCITY-553) Posibility to configure ReportInvalidReferences to don't report report variables,properties and method which exist, but only have null value

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-553?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12905139#action_12905139 ] 

Nathan Bubna commented on VELOCITY-553:
---------------------------------------

Where are we here?  It sounds like Byron had ideas for fixing/using this in 2.0, but no one has stepped up to resolve this for 1.7 (much less 1.6).  Since we have strict mode now, is this even worth fixing in 1.7?  I'd like to push out a 1.7 final soon.  Unless someone steps up soon, this won't happen in 1.7.

> ReportInvalidReferences has very big imperfection, it report by default all variables, properties and method which has null value.
> This may cause many problems for developer.
> I for example need only validate template without any data, only check which contain right variables, properties or method (which exist), it's value is not important for me.
> I tried use my own ReferenceInsertionEventHandler for replace null value with "" (empty String) but Velocity call InvalidReference handler before ReferenceInsertionEventHandler.
> I suggest configuration options for this (repor or doesn't report null value)
