Re: [VOTE] Engine 2.2 RC1 Release quality
Posted by Thomas Mortagne <th...@xwiki.com>.
I just noticed a slight difference between Velocity 1.7 and
2.0+VM_PRESERVE_ARGUMENTS_LITERALS:
```
#macro(mymacro $input)
#set($input = $NULL)
$input
#end
#set($variable = 'value')
#mymacro($variable)
```
Velocity 1.7 prints $variable
Velocity 2.0 prints $input
The reason why it's important is that this hack is used in XWiki to
"return" something (by setting a value in the original variable name)
and this is broken with 2.0 because the initial name is lost like when
VM_PRESERVE_ARGUMENTS_LITERALS is not used.
