Re: JPublish 2 with Velocity

Chris,

You can actually refer to any content in any repository using the Velocity #parse directive in JPublish.  JPublish requires a full URL to the content repository though.  For example, let's say you have a content repository called fs_repository which represents the /content directory in your webapp.  If you put your macros in a file called mymacros.vm and put that file in /content then you could include it using the #parse directive as follows:

#parse("repository:fs_repository://mymacros.vm")

If you want to use the VM_global_library.vm file for your macros then that file must be in the WEB-INF/classes directory and you must be using the JPublish code in the CVS (the global library support will be part of the 2.0b4 release but you can get it now from the CVS).

Sincerely,
Anthony Eden
