[jira] Updated: (VELOCITY-229) Velocity templates should be able to specify their own encoding

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-229?page=all ]

Henning Schmiedehausen updated VELOCITY-229:
--------------------------------------------

      Bugzilla Id:   (was: 24796)
      Component/s: Engine
                       (was: Source)
    Fix Version/s: 1.6
         Assignee:     (was: Velocity-Dev List)

Yep, it's old but seems to be trivially doable (we can treat the internal encoding of the Engine as default). However, we would introduce a new directive for that, but I see no reason why this should not be possible. 

Biggest show stopper however would be that we either need a CLA from Charles (if you are reading this, please speak up!) or re-uploading of the patches with the "I contribute that code to the ASF" radio button selected. Until then, we actually have a legal problem, not a code problem. :-/ 

Unless there is quick reaction, this will probably miss the boat for 1.5 and surface early in 1.6. Setting Target to 1.6

> Velocity templates should be able to specify their own encoding without
> requiring external knowledge of the encoding before parsing (as least
> for all ASCII-compatible encodings). Many other scripting/templating
> systems (like JSP and python, for example) provide such a mechanism,
> and find it helpful to users when creating multi-language (and encoding) sites.
