[jira] [Updated] (FREEMARKER-157) Custom number formats

["G Kal (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FREEMARKER-157?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

G Kal updated FREEMARKER-157:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
Followed the exact steps as described at the project's [documentation|https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/pgui_config_custom_formats.html#pgui_config_custom_formats_ex_model_aware] but I cannot make my custom number formats to work.

For example when I run the template bellow:
{code:java}
${map.key?string.@base_8}
{code}
 I get this error:

 
{code:java}
For "." left-hand operand: Expected a hash, but this has evaluated to a string (wrapper: f.t.SimpleScalar):
==> map.key?string
{code}
I tried various combinations of . and @ operator, tried to wrap my map inside () but nothing seems to work.

 

Setting the number format globally (<#setting number_format="@base_8">) works, but this is not an option for me, as well as the model - aware formats. Is this functionality broken or removed, can I at least have a custom format function ? How can I achieve this?
