>             Project: Velocity
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Source
>    Affects Versions: 1.3-rc1
>         Environment: Operating System: All
> Platform: All
>            Reporter: MySign
>             Fix For: 1.5

> If there are two methods with the same name and different parameters like:
> public class myClass
> {
>     public String foo ( Integer intObj );
>     public String foo ( String str );
> }
> and a velocity template like this
> $myObj.foo( $someObj.getNull() )
> $myObj.foo( $str )
> while $someObj.getNull() returns null and $str is a java.lang.String object
> with a String like 'test'. Because velocity caches the first method with the 
> Integer argument on calling with the parameter null (which isn't of course of 
> any type/class) the call fails with the String argument, because velocity tries
> to call the foo( Integer intObj )!
> In the velocity log appears a IllegalArgumentException which is right, but 
> velocity should call the right method!
