Unable to find velocity template resources

Question

Just a simple velocity standalone app based on maven structure. Here is the code snippet written in Scala to render the template helloworld.vm in ${basedi

Answer 1

I put my .vm under the src/main/resources/templates, then the code is :

Properties p = new Properties();
p.setProperty("resource.loader", "class");
p.setProperty("class.resource.loader.class", "org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.loader.ClasspathResourceLoader");
Velocity.init( p );       
VelocityContext context = new VelocityContext();           
Template template = Velocity.getTemplate("templates/my.vm");

this works in web project.

In eclipse Velocity.getTemplate("my.vm") works since velocity will look for the .vm file in src/main/resources/ or src/main/resources/templates, but in web project, we have to use Velocity.getTemplate("templates/my.vm");
