> Key: VELOCITY-874
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-874
> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: VTL in user macro in Atlassian Confluence 5.9.4
> Reporter: Alexander Rosenberg
>
> This works as expected:
> {noformat}
> ## @noparams
> #set ($n = 5)
> #set ($m = $n+1)
> <p>$m</p>
> {noformat}
> Output: {{<p>6</p>}}
> However, subtraction doesn't work:
> {noformat}
> ## @noparams
> #set ($n = 5)
> #set ($m = $n-1)
> <p>$m</p>
> {noformat}
> Output: {{<p>$m</p>}}
> From [SO Q&A #15448108|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15448108/subtraction-is-not-working-with-velocity-template], it appears that this behavior is due to the parser treating the hyphen/dash/minus-sign as part of the identifier, but certainly an exception should be made for when the "identifier" ends with only digits and/or hyphens.
> Another case:
> {noformat}
> ## @noparams
> #set ($n = 5)
> #set ($m = $n- 1)
> <p>$m</p>
> {noformat}
> In this case we get an all too familiar {{ParseErrorException}}:
> {noformat}
> org.apache.velocity.exception.ParseErrorException: Encountered "1" at getRenderedContent[line 4, column 16]
> Was expecting one of:
> <RPAREN> ...
> "-" ...
> "+" ...
> "*" ...
> "/" ...
> "%" ...
> <LOGICAL_AND> ...
> <LOGICAL_OR> ...
> <LOGICAL_LT> ...
> <LOGICAL_LE> ...
> <LOGICAL_GT> ...
> <LOGICAL_GE> ...
> <LOGICAL_EQUALS> ...
> <LOGICAL_NOT_EQUALS> ...
