Re: adding float values in velocity(velocity variable reference)

[Will Glass-Husain <wg...@gmail.com>]

Dear sudhitekkala,

[I'm replying to the user@velocity.apache.org list, which is a better place
for support and help for Velocity]

Are you using the latest Velocity 1.5?  Previous versions didn't support
decimal numbers.

Also, I note that your example is not correct.  There should be no quotes
around the numbers.

#set($a=300.05)
#set($b=500.05)
#set($c=$a+$b)

Hope this helps.

Best regards, WILL
