Error "is not a valid reference"

           Summary: Error "is not a valid reference"
           Product: Velocity
           Version: 1.0-Release
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: velocity-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jeff292@hotmail.com


Hi there,
I encountered a problem with Velocity when invoking inherited methods of a Java 
class. I get the 
error "org.apache.velocity.runtime.exception.ReferenceException: reference : 
template = screens/Details.vm [line 48,column 1] : $class.getFullName() is not 
a valid reference" if I want to invoke the "FullName" method of the "class" 
object. This method is inherited from a superior class. If I call a method 
defined directly in this class, everything works fine. If I obtain the name of 
the "class" object, I get the correct name.
It would be nice, if anyone could help me on this.
