Re: Class StringTemplateLoader

Hi,

If you want to "push" the template content, like you do, then you
don't need any TemplateLoader for this, nor you need
Configuration.getTemplate. Just use the Template constructor that
takes the template content as a String (or as a Reader). You may still
want to cache the resulting Template for speed, but that's up to you
in this scenario.

Another approach is implementing a TemplateLoader that loads from the
DB, then set that as the TemplateLoader in the Configuration, and then
using Configuration.getTemplate will "pull" the template, and the
Template cache will work too of course.
