[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (VELOCITY-655) Macro parameter value
can't be changed inside a macro
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-655?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12654800#action_12654800 ]

I will use the workaround with the new variable (in my example "y") in the meantime and have another try when a new final version of 1.6 (1.6.1 or following) exists.

> I've detected a problem when changing parameter values inside a macro using velocity engine version 1.6.
> In my use case I have to lower the input string first and then do further processing.
> With version 1.5 of the velocity engine there were no problems to implement this use case.
> Here is an example which shows the differences between version 1.5 and 1.6:
> Template-Code:
> {code}
> #macro(testMacro $x)
> #set ($x = $x.toLowerCase())
> #set ($y = $x.toLowerCase())
> x=$x
> y=$y
> #end
> #testMacro('ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ-Testcase1')
> #testMacro("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ-Testcase2")
> {code}
> Result with Velocity Engine 1.5:
> x=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-testcase1
> y=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-testcase1
> x=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-testcase2
> y=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-testcase2
> Result with Velocity Engine 1.6:
> x=ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ-Testcase1
> y=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-testcase1
> x=ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ-Testcase2
> y=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-testcase2
