[jira] Commented: (VELOCITY-459) localscope doesn't allow get to leak

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-459?page=comments#action_12436445 ] 
            
Will Glass-Husain commented on VELOCITY-459:
--------------------------------------------

Thanks for reporting this and submitting a patch.  Does "ant test" pass?  We should get this into 1.5.

Is this related to Velocity-262?

> In short, we wanted "localscope" on for macros due to some recursion. However, this meant that both puts /and/ gets only use the localscope.
> For gets this seems overly restrictive--if I set "foo=bar" in my base VelocityContext, and then get into my macro, it should be able to reach that "foo" even if it can't overwrite it.
> The attached patch relaxes the "VMContext.get" to let it check first the local scope and then the inner scope. Included is a test that makes sure an "outsideVar" is accessible from VMContext even if localscope is on.
