Seems there are bug fixes that could be important to us:
- Fix bug in #parse that threw an NPE when IncludeEventHandler returned null and inline
macros are kept local. Fixes VELOCITY-717. Thanks to Jarkko Viinamaki. nbubna
- Fix double-checked locking in RuntimeInstance's optional lazy-init for Java 1.5+.
Users of older JREs in multi-threaded environments MUST manually call init() on any
thread-shared Velocity singleton or VelocityEngine instances to avoid race conditions. New
auto-init feature is only supported on Java 1.5+. Fixes VELOCITY-750. nbubna
- Fix 100% CPU loop hang under simultaneous HashMap calls in ClassMap due to classic bug
in Sun's implementation. Now uses ConcurrentHashMap when available and Hashtable
otherwise. Fixes VELOCITY-718.
Thanks
