>             Project: Velocity
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Engine
>    Affects Versions: 1.3-rc1

> When using == instead of = inside a #set directive a NullPointerException is
> thrown.  For example,
> #set($dave == "aCoolGuy")
> will cause an NPE to be thrown.  The syntax is obviously wrong, but Velocity
> should give a helpful error message, or at least some kind of error message
> rather than throwing an NPE.
> The relevant portion of the stack trace has been included below:
> java.lang.NullPointerException
> 	at
> org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.ASTSetDirective.render(ASTSetDirective.java:135)
> 	at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.SimpleNode.render(SimpleNode.java:271)
> 	at org.apache.velocity.app.VelocityEngine.evaluate(VelocityEngine.java:358)
