</action>
<action type="add" dev="nbubna" issue="VELOCITY-704">
Change the scoping behavior of Velocity, keeping it optional (everything global
scoped by default) but now providing an explicit namespace in content-containing
directives (like macros, #foreach, #parse, etc.) in which references that should
stay local may be kept. This is accompanied by numerous related changes, including:
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A Scope reference can now be automatically made
available within each content directive:
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$template in Template.merge and #parse content&lt;li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$macro in #macro&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$foreach in #foreach&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$evaluate in #evaluate or Velocity.evaluate(...) content&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$define in #define&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;$&amp;lt;amacro&amp;gt; in #@&amp;lt;amacro&amp;gt;
(where &amp;lt;amacro&amp;gt; is the name of a macro being called with a body)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;For performance and compatibility these are all off by
default, *except* for $foreach. The others may be enabled by setting a velocity property like:
&lt;br/&gt;&lt;code&gt;macro.provide.scope.control = true&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When scopes of the same type are nested make the parent Scope available
through the child (e.g. $foreach.parent or $foreach.topmost).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When a Scope reference overrides an existing reference that is not a Scope,
make it available through the Scope (e.g. $foreach.replaced).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Made #break work in any of the above scopes to exit the most immediate one,
unless a different scope is provided as an argument
(e.g. #break($macro) or #break($foreach.topmost)).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Deprecated $velocityCount;
please use $foreach.count or $foreach.index.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Deprecated $velocityHasNext;
please use $foreach.hasNext, $foreach.first or $foreach.last&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Deprecated velocimacro.context.localscope setting;
please get/set local #macro references as members of the provided $macro
scope control instead. (e.g. #set( $macro.foo = 'bar' ) and $macro.foo ).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Deprecated directive.evaluate.context.class setting;
please get/set local #evaluate references as members of the provided $evaluate
scope control instead. (e.g. #set( $evaluate.foo = 'bar' ) and $evaluate.foo ).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
All of the deprecated features will be removed in Velocity 2.0.
</action>
<action type="add" dev="nbubna" issue="VELOCITY-681">
Calling #set on a macro argument (for which a #set-able reference
was passed) will no longer propagate the new value to the original
reference, but merely set the value of the macro argument reference.
This was an obscure, infrequently used feature and was decided to be
more problematic and unpredictable than useful.
</action>
<action type="add" dev="byron" issue="VELOCITY-688">
In strict mode attempts to render references that evaluate to
null will throw an exception. In the user wishes to suppress
the exception and render nothing then the reference can be
