[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-39?page=all ]

Wendy Smoak updated ARCHETYPE-39:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: ARCHETYPE-39-velocity-escape-tool.patch


It turns out that adding EscapeTools to the Velocity context also takes only 
one line.

       context.put( "esc" , new EscapeTool() );

With this change, we'll be able to escape all the characters listed in the docs:
   http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/tools/generic/EscapeTool.html

For example, to escape the dollar sign, it's
   ${esc.d}  or  ${esc.dollar}

My problematic property becomes:
requiredstring = ${esc.d}{getText(fieldName)} is required.
