Re: What does "Velocimacro with a Body" mean?

Thank you very much Sergiu  and Alex. 
 
            I was just
about to post to Sergiu that I could not get his suggestion to work, when I saw the post from Alex. 
 
Thank you Alex. You are totally
correct here – your suggestion worked perfectly and solved my problem.
 
Thanks again to both of you,
O. O.

Oggetto: Re: What does "Velocimacro with a Body" mean?

It does not work because bodyContent is an instance of the ASTNode class
and not a string, so it does not have the trim method.

Use something like this:

#macro(my_trim)#set($str="$bodyContent")$str.trim()#end

Test:

before#@my_trim()    -blah-     #{end}after

Renders:
before-blah-after
