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 -Vincent Begin forwarded message:
