Re: extend the Include or Environment classes

Hello Francis

I am not clear what issue you are having with the MultiTemplateLoader. It should try the first loader, and fall back to the second for each #include

Yes you should write your own code for execute. I think the example in the directive doc is quite clear.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
