So we can't use indentation in macros?
Should we document this generally or is it specific to this macro (in which case maybe we
should add a comment so that the next person doesn't start indenting it)?

So we can't use indentation in macros?
Should we document this generally or is it specific to this macro (in which case maybe we
should add a comment so that the next person doesn't start indenting it)? I don't know, Marius complained that #setVariable
creates whitespace, so
I removed them for this macro. For the other macros, it depends. I'd say
that utility macros that bring essential functionality should not output
spaces.
In XWiki.ConfigurableClass #setVariable velocity macro is called between
two HTML macros that generate only script tags:
{{html}}
<script>...</script>
{{html}}
One problem is that SCRIPT tag is considered a block level element by
the HTML macro and as a result something like:
before{{html}}<script>alert('Hi!')</script>{{/html}}after
fails to be rendered. In our case "before" and "after" are spaces
generated by #setVariable macro call.
If we leave empty lines before and after these two HTML macros they will
be rendered fine BUT we'll get a paragraph with spaces between the two
SCRIPT tags, spaces coming from the #setVariable macro call.
The problem comes from the fact that in wiki content, {{velocity}} has a
default whitespace filter which takes care of indentation whitespace,
but calling global macros will output the whitespace present in the
original macro.
Exactly. If I put the code of the #setVariable velocity macro in a wiki
page, inside a {{velocity}} macro, then spaces are filtered.
Thanks,
Marius
Maybe macros.vm should also be passed through the
whitespace filter before being parsed? Is that even possible?
