Help! VelocityViewServlet simple example doesn't work for me...
I've tried to build this twice with Ant. In each case, I created the
simple.war. Next, I copy this over to my Tomcat webapps directory. I
restart Tomcat. I type in http://localhost:8080/simple/index.vm. I get
the the template served up, but the replace / text subsitution for
$toytool.getMessage() doesn't happen. The strange thing is that I see
TOOLBOX SETUP! when I start my instance of Tomcat. Help! I'm not sure
where to go from here.
Thanks,
Jeff Duska

It's fixed and commited.
Thanks for the report.

Jeff,
Ok, a couple things...
first, the simple example in cvs is not up to date with the latest version
of the velocity-tools-view code. the joys of unreleased code :-)
second, here's what you can do to get it running...
1. replace the velocity-tools-view jar in the WEB_INF\lib of the simple
example. the one in cvs is version 0.3 when 0.7 is the current. (Gabe, we
should pull this and any other precompiled vel-tool jars out of cvs and
change the build file to use the locally built jars.)
2. make the toolbox.xml look like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<toolbox>
<tool>
<key>toytool</key>
<class>ToyTool</class>
</tool>
</toolbox>
3. build the example. to do this, i had to make the following changes, and
then execute the "compile" target.
Index: build.xml

that should get things going!

ack. monday. ignore me. the key is set to "toytool". i just didn't pay
attention. i guess it would help if i actually tried to run the example
before spouting off like i know something.

ah. the toolbox.xml for the simple example contains
<tool>
<key>toytool</key>
<class>ToyTool</class>
</tool>
so the template needs to say
$ToyTool.getMessage()
instead of
$toytool.getMessage()
velocity is case sensitive. if Gabe, Geir or some other committer wouldn't
mind fixing that so newbie's like Jeff don't get surprised, that'd be great.
