Interface RuntimeServices
- All Superinterfaces:
RuntimeLogger
- All Known Implementing Classes:
RuntimeInstance
Interface for internal runtime services that are needed by the
various components w/in Velocity. This was taken from the old
Runtime singleton, and anything not necessary was removed.
Currently implemented by RuntimeInstance.

Method Details
-
init
void init()This is the primary initialization method in the Velocity Runtime. The systems that are setup/initialized here are as follows:- Logging System
- ResourceManager
- Parser Pool
- Global Cache
- Static Content Include System
- Velocimacro System
-
setProperty
Allows an external system to set a property in the Velocity Runtime.- Parameters:
key
- property keyvalue
- property value
-
setConfiguration
void setConfiguration(org.apache.commons.collections.ExtendedProperties configuration) Allow an external system to set an ExtendedProperties object to use. This is useful where the external system also uses the ExtendedProperties class and the velocity configuration is a subset of parent application's configuration. This is the case with Turbine.- Parameters:
configuration
-
-
addProperty
Add a property to the configuration. If it already exists then the value stated here will be added to the configuration entry. For example, if resource.loader = file is already present in the configuration and you addProperty("resource.loader", "classpath") Then you will end up with a Vector like the following: ["file", "classpath"]- Parameters:
key
-value
-
-
clearProperty
Clear the values pertaining to a particular property.- Parameters:
key
- of property to clear
-
getProperty
Allows an external caller to get a property. The calling routine is required to know the type, as this routine will return an Object, as that is what properties can be.- Parameters:
key
- property to return- Returns:
- The value.
-
init
Initialize the Velocity Runtime with a Properties object.- Parameters:
p
-
-
init
Initialize the Velocity Runtime with the name of ExtendedProperties object.- Parameters:
configurationFile
-
-
parse
Wraps the String in a StringReader and passes it off toparse(Reader,String)
.- Throws:
ParseException
- Since:
- 1.6
-
parse
Parse the input and return the root of AST node structure.
In the event that it runs out of parsers in the pool, it will create and let them be GC'd dynamically, logging that it has to do that. This is considered an exceptional condition. It is expected that the user will set the PARSER_POOL_SIZE property appropriately for their application. We will revisit this.- Parameters:
reader
- inputstream retrieved by a resource loadertemplateName
- name of the template being parsed- Returns:
- The AST representing the template.
- Throws:
ParseException
-
parse
Parse the input and return the root of the AST node structure.- Parameters:
reader
- inputstream retrieved by a resource loadertemplateName
- name of the template being parseddumpNamespace
- flag to dump the Velocimacro namespace for this template- Returns:
- The AST representing the template.
- Throws:
ParseException
-
evaluate
Renders the input string using the context into the output writer. To be used when a template is dynamically constructed, or want to use Velocity as a token replacer.- Parameters:
context
- context to use in rendering input stringout
- Writer in which to render the outputlogTag
- string to be used as the template name for log messages in case of errorinstring
- input string containing the VTL to be rendered- Returns:
- true if successful, false otherwise. If false, see Velocity runtime log
- Throws:
ParseErrorException
- The template could not be parsed.MethodInvocationException
- A method on a context object could not be invoked.ResourceNotFoundException
- A referenced resource could not be loaded.IOException
- While rendering to the writer, an I/O problem occured.- Since:
- Velocity 1.6

invokeVelocimacro
boolean invokeVelocimacro(String vmName, String logTag, String[] params, Context context, Writer writer) Invokes a currently registered Velocimacro with the params provided and places the rendered stream into the writer.
Note : currently only accepts args to the VM if they are in the context.- Parameters:
vmName
- name of Velocimacro to calllogTag
- string to be used for template name in case of error. if null, the vmName will be usedparams
- keys for args used to invoke Velocimacro, in java format rather than VTL (eg "foo" or "bar" rather than "$foo" or "$bar")context
- Context object containing data/objects used for rendering.writer
- Writer for output stream- Returns:
- true if Velocimacro exists and successfully invoked, false otherwise.
- Since:
- 1.6
