Velocity 1.7

[borismarin]

Hi all
Are you planning on making airspeed compliant with Velocity 1.7?
There are some deprecated constructs, such as $velocityCount (now available as $foreach.count or $foreach.index)

The changes are outlined in
http://velocity.apache.org/engine/releases/velocity-1.7/upgrading.html

best wishes,
Boris

We don't have any plans currently, but I'll leave this ticket open as a reminder.

Hi,

I am planning to implement some 1.7 features like the $array[$index] and at the moment I am debugging the code to understand how it works (nice architecture btw).

@borismarin @purcell any help is welcome ;)

Thanks @erasmospunk. Sorry that I don't have any spare capacity to help, but I'd be very happy to receive pull requests for this. :-)

@purcell Last comment in this thread was from 2013 :) What is the Velocity compliancy today? README hints that 1.7 is (at least partially) supported?

[purcell]

No idea, sorry. I don't use this or Velocity at all, and haven't for many years. A trickle of updates come in from contributors, adding compatibility with newer Velocity versions, and I keep releasing them, but I'm not sure where Airspeed currently stands.
