[jira] [Commented] (TILES-542) Inject VelocityEngine into VelocityAttributeRenderer

["Konrad Garus (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TILES-542?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13207638#comment-13207638 ] 

Konrad Garus commented on TILES-542:
------------------------------------

The VelocityAttributeRenderer.params map on supports String values, so it is unsuitable. It could be solved by making this Map<String, Object> and adding a parameter for the custom engine, or by adding a VelocityEngine field to VelocityAttributeRenderer and passing it to the view in commit().

If this is confirmed and desired extension, I could submit a patch.

> VelocityAttributeRenderer instantiates VelocityView, which in turn instantiates its own VelocityEngine. There is no way to inject a customized VelocityEngine from outside except for extending VelocityAttributeRenderer and overriding commit().
> There should be an API for passing customized VelocityEngine to the view.
