get Template from memory

[zz...@enflamed.com]

Hi!

I can't find a way to get a Velocity Template from memory.
The only way I found is by it's filename:

  VelocityEngine ve = new VelocityEngine();
  Template t = ve.getTemplate("fileNameOfTemplate");

Is there a direct way (without creating a file) in Velocity
to get a Template from memory (e.g. from a String object)?

Thanks,

-Toddy

There's no way to get a template at the moment (although I did think of 
a resource loader that I'm going to cobble together today to do 
this...)

Until then, look at the o.a.velocity.app.Velocity and VelocityEngine 
APIs.  They have a evaluate() method that will help
