[jira] Commented: (VELOCITY-445) Integrate Jython or BeanShell or
Perl with Velocity to have complete macro language!
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-445?page=comments#action_12416397 ]
Will Glass-Husain commented on VELOCITY-445:
--------------------------------------------
Another possibility is to mix Velocity and JSP with the "Veltag" module of Velocity. This allows JSP pages -- which can be scripted as you desire -- to include Velocity fragments.

> I do some advanced macro preprocessing using Velocity. I find that Velocity's macro language should be more powerful than what it is. I miss the capabilities of a full featured language. I wish that velocity macro language should be comparable with Perl or Jython or BeanShell.
> I strongly suggest that Velocity be reengineered to support a complete macro processing language like Perl or Jython or BeanShell (Jython or BeanShell are already 100% Java). The old macro processing language would disappear, insteand we would enter a scripting language like Jython or BeanShell.
> This is necessary in order that Velocity be used as a full-featured macro preprocessing utility.
