-<p>As a programmer, you have great freedom in the objects that you put into the context. But as with most freedoms, this one comes with a little bit of responsibility, so understand what Velocity supports, and any issues that may arise. Velocity supports serveral types of collection types suitable for use in the VTL <code>#foreach()</code> directive.
-+ <code>Object []</code> Regular object array, not much needs to be said here. Velocity will internally wrap your array in a class that provides an Iterator interface, but that shouldn't concern you as the programmer, or the template author. Of more interest, is the fact that Velocity will now allow template authors to treat arrays as fixed-length lists. This means they may call methods like <code>size()</code>, <code>isEmpty()</code> and <code>get(int)</code> as well as the <code>empty</code> property on both arrays and standard java.util.List instances without concerning themselves about the difference.
-+ <code>java.util.Collection</code> Velocity will use the <code>iterator()</code> method to get an Iterator to use in the loop, so if you are implementing a Collection interface on your object, please ensure that <code>iterator()</code> returns a working Iterator.
-+ <code>java.util.Map</code> Here, Velocity depends upon the <code>values()</code> method of the interface to get a <code>Collection</code> interface, on which <code>iterator()</code> is called to retrieve an Iterator for the loop.
-+ <code>java.util.Iterator</code> USE WITH CAUTION: This is currently supported only provisionally - the issue of concern is the 'non-resettablity' of the Iterator. If a 'naked' Iterator is placed into the context, and used in more than one #foreach(), subsequent #foreach() blocks after the first will fail, as the Iterator doesn't reset.
-+ <code>java.util.Enumeration</code> USE WITH CAUTION: Like <code>java.util.Iterator</code>, this is currently supported only provisionally - the issue of concern is the 'non-resettablity' of the Enumeration. If a 'naked' Enumeration is placed into the context, and used in more than one #foreach(), subsequent #foreach() blocks after the first will fail, as the Enumeration doesn't reset.
-+ Any public class with a <code>public Iterator iterator()</code> method that never returns <code>null</code>. As a last resort, Velocity will look for an <code>iterator()</code> method. This provides great flexibility and automatic support for <code>java.util.Iterable</code> interface.</p>

<p>In the case of the <code>Iterator</code> and <code>Enumeration</code>, it is recommended that they are placed in the context only when it cannot be avoided, and you should let Velocity find the appropriate reusable iterative interface when that is sufficient and possible.</p>

-<p>As a programmer, you have great freedom in the objects that you put into the context. But as with most freedoms, this one comes with a little bit of responsibility, so understand what Velocity supports, and any issues that may arise. Velocity supports serveral types of collection types suitable for use in the VTL <code>#foreach()</code> directive.
-+ <code>Object []</code> Regular object array, not much needs to be said here. Velocity will internally wrap your array in a class that provides an Iterator interface, but that shouldn't concern you as the programmer, or the template author. Of more interest, is the fact that Velocity will now allow template authors to treat arrays as fixed-length lists. This means they may call methods like <code>size()</code>, <code>isEmpty()</code> and <code>get(int)</code> as well as the <code>empty</code> property on both arrays and standard java.util.List instances without concerning themselves about the difference.
-+ <code>java.util.Collection</code> Velocity will use the <code>iterator()</code> method to get an Iterator to use in the loop, so if you are implementing a Collection interface on your object, please ensure that <code>iterator()</code> returns a working Iterator.
-+ <code>java.util.Map</code> Here, Velocity depends upon the <code>values()</code> method of the interface to get a <code>Collection</code> interface, on which <code>iterator()</code> is called to retrieve an Iterator for the loop.
-+ <code>java.util.Iterator</code> USE WITH CAUTION: This is currently supported only provisionally - the issue of concern is the 'non-resettablity' of the Iterator. If a 'naked' Iterator is placed into the context, and used in more than one #foreach(), subsequent #foreach() blocks after the first will fail, as the Iterator doesn't reset.
