What substitutes ToolboxManager.getToolboxContext

[Manali Joshi <jo...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I am upgrading to Velocity tools 1.3 release to be able to use the
ViewResourceTool. But 1.3 removed the deprecated method
ToolboxManager.getToolboxContext. So, what can I use in code to replace this
in order to get a chained velocity context ?

thanks,
mj

The replacement for getToolboxContext(Object) is
ToolboxManager.getToolbox(Object) which returns a Map of initialized
tools.  If you simply want any old VelocityContext, then you just
create it yourself like this:

VelocityContext ctx = new
VelocityContext(myToolboxManager.getToolbox(myInitData));

If you specifically want a
org.apache.velocity.tools.view.context.ChainedContext, then you will
still need to create it yourself and then set the toolbox, like this:

ChainedContext ctx = new ChainedContext(myVelocityEngine, httprequest,
httpresponse, servletcontext);
ctx.setToolbox(myToolboxManager.getToolbox(ctx));

the latter is what the VelocityViewServlet does in its
createContext(...) method.
