Problems finding templates in junit test
Hi everyone!
I am integrating velocity into our project and everything seems to work fine.
now i'm trying to write tests. There i have the problem that i cannot find my
velocity templates.
the project is no web app. it just generates text files.
i use the same process as in the real app:
p.setProperty("file.resource.loader.path", templateDir);
Velocity.init(p);
in the app it works fine, but in the test the template is not found.
i tried different combinations of strings, relative, absolute, with "/" and
"\".
i checked if the starting path is the same in both cases (in both cases
project root).
then i checked via:
String test = (String) Velocity.getProperty("file.resource.loader.path");
if the property is set. for the real app it returns:
".\src\main\resources\templates"
and for the test it returns:
"."
if i move the templates to project root, it works fine, but that is no option
because there will be many templates.
could anyone tell me what i've done wrong? velocity version is 1.6.
or is it possibly a bug?
thanks in advance!
greetings
greg

I'm not sure why this is happening, but if i had to guess, this is
some sort of ClassLoader issue. You might try using VelocityEngine
instead of the Velocity singleton, at least for your tests. Then you
can be sure that you aren't double-initing the singleton or something.
