[jira] Created: (VELOCITY-785) incensistencies when escaping quotes by doubling them

incensistencies when escaping quotes by doubling them
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: VELOCITY-785
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-785
             Project: Velocity
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Engine
    Affects Versions: 2.0
         Environment: any
            Reporter: Claude Brisson
            Priority: Minor


The template:

#set($double_double = """") ## ok
#set($single_single = '''') ## ok
#set($double_single = "''") ## strange, equals "'"
#set($single_double = '""') ## strange, equals '"'
double_double = $double_double
single_single = $single_single
double_single = $double_single
single_double = $single_double

renders as:
"
'
'
"


whereas one would expect:
"
'
''
""

More readily, one would expect single quotes doubling mechanism and double quotes doubling mechanism to only be active inside single quotes and double quotes, respectively.

    Issue Type: Improvement  (was: Bug)

Funny, i would call that an unexpected consistency.  :)  I don't really have any problem with it the way it is, since it works and doesn't prevent any possible output.  But i agree that there is unnecessary escaping going on, leaving room for improvement.

    Attachment: velocity-785.patch

Here's a patch that will modify Velocity to act as Claude suggested. I agree that it is more logical that way.
