| java.lang.Object org.apache.velocity.runtime.Runtime
Runtime | public class Runtime implements RuntimeConstants(Code) | | This is the Runtime system for Velocity. It is the
single access point for all functionality in Velocity.
It adheres to the mediator pattern and is the only
structure that developers need to be familiar with
in order to get Velocity to perform.
The Runtime will also cooperate with external
systems like Turbine. Runtime properties can
set and then the Runtime is initialized.
Turbine for example knows where the templates
are to be loaded from, and where the velocity
log file should be placed.
So in the case of Velocity cooperating with Turbine
the code might look something like the following:
Runtime.setProperty(Runtime.FILE_RESOURCE_LOADER_PATH, templatePath);
Runtime.setProperty(Runtime.RUNTIME_LOG, pathToVelocityLog);
Runtime.init();
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
N O T E S O N R U N T I M E I N I T I A L I Z A T I O N
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Runtime.init()
If Runtime.init() is called by itself the Runtime will
initialize with a set of default values.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Runtime.init(String/Properties)
In this case the default velocity properties are layed down
first to provide a solid base, then any properties provided
in the given properties object will override the corresponding
default property.

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 - A property key. Parameters: value - The property value. |

debug | public static void debug(Object message)(Code) | | Log a debug message.
Parameters: message - message to log |
dumpVMNamespace | public static boolean dumpVMNamespace(String namespace)(Code) | | tells the vmFactory to dump the specified namespace. This is to support
clearing the VM list when in inline-VM-local-scope mode
Parameters: namespace - The namespace to dump. True if the namespace has been dumped. |
error | public static void error(Object message)(Code) | | Log an error message.
Parameters: message - message to log |
getBoolean | public static boolean getBoolean(String key, boolean def)(Code) | | Boolean property accessor method to hide the configuration implementation.
Parameters: key - property key Parameters: def - default default value if property not found boolean value of key or default value |
getConfiguration | public static ExtendedProperties getConfiguration()(Code) | | Return the velocity runtime configuration object.
ExtendedProperties configuration object which housesthe velocity runtime properties. |

getLoaderNameForResource | public static String getLoaderNameForResource(String resourceName)(Code) | | Determines is a template exists, and returns name of the loader that
provides it. This is a slightly less hokey way to support
the Velocity.templateExists() utility method, which was broken
when per-template encoding was introduced. We can revisit this.
Parameters: resourceName - Name of template or content resource class name of loader than can provide it |
getProperty | public static Object getProperty(String key)(Code) | | 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.

configuration implementation.

getVelocimacro | public static Directive getVelocimacro(String vmName, String templateName)(Code) | | Returns the appropriate VelocimacroProxy object if strVMname
is a valid current Velocimacro.
Parameters: vmName - Name of velocimacro requested Parameters: templateName - The template from which the macro is requested. A VelocimacroProxy object for the macro. |
info | public static void info(Object message)(Code) | | Log an info message.
Parameters: message - message to log |
init | public static synchronized void init() throws Exception(Code) | | 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
throws: Exception - When init fails for any reason. |
init | public static void init(Properties p) throws Exception(Code) | | Initialize the Velocity Runtime with a Properties
object.
Parameters: p - The properties used for initializiation. throws: Exception - When a problem occurs during init. |

ExtendedProperties object.
Parameters: configurationFile - The name of a properties file. throws: Exception - When a problem occurs during init. |
isVelocimacro | public static boolean isVelocimacro(String vmName, String templateName)(Code) | | Checks to see if a VM exists
Parameters: vmName - The name of velocimacro. Parameters: templateName - The template from which the macro is requested. boolean True if VM by that name exists, false if not |
parse | public static SimpleNode parse(Reader reader, String templateName) throws ParseException(Code) | | 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 - A reader returning the template input stream. Parameters: templateName - name of the template being parsed The root node of an AST structure for the template input stream. throws: ParseException - When the input stream is not parsable. |

The root node of an AST structure for the template input stream. throws: ParseException - When the input stream is not parsable. |
setConfiguration | public static void setConfiguration(ExtendedProperties configuration)(Code) | | 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 - A configuration object. |
setProperty | public static void setProperty(String key, Object value)(Code) | | Allows an external system to set a property in
the Velocity Runtime.
