[jira] Commented: (VELOCITY-262) #set not parsed in #macro

["Henning Schmiedehausen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-262?page=comments#action_12447540 ] 
            
Henning Schmiedehausen commented on VELOCITY-262:
-------------------------------------------------

I built a small test bed using

--- cut ---
#macro(issue262 $baz)
	#set ($bar = "$baz")
	#set ($foo = "inside macro!")
#end
--- cut ---

in the global macros file and

--- cut ---
<pre>
$foo

#issue262("from macro")
$foo
$bar	
	
#set ($foo = "foo")
#set ($bar = "empty")
$foo
$bar

#issue262("from macro2")
$foo
$bar	

</pre>
--- cut ---

as template. This rendered as:

--- cut ---
$foo

inside macro!
from macro	
	
foo
empty

inside macro!
from macro2	
--- cut ---

So 

1) $foo was unset (the macro definition in the global macros file did not change this value in any way)

2) $foo and $bar were set (changed) inside the macro. This is visible on the outside as $foo and $bar
    changed values.

3) $foo and $bar could be changed on the template to other values. 

4) running the macro again (with another value for the parameter resulted in another value for $bar. So
    re-evaluating the macro does change the value of the reference.

Works as expected, if you ask me. Any comments / could you try your case with Velocity 1.5? I tend to close the case as "cannot reproduce".
