Velocity calling a vararg method

Question

I am trying to call a varargs method from Velocity. The function is defined in a Class named "Abc" as:

public static void function(String ... values)

I set the context as

params.put("concat",new Abc());

The template contains the call to the method as:

$concat.function('Var1','var2')

If I fix the function to have one argument everything works fine, if I move to the varargs (or a byte[] for that matter), it can't resolve it and I don't get back what I wanted. I set some log settings and go that velocity gets:

Null reference [template 'bufferTemplate', line 1, column 1] :
  $concat.function('Kuku','Muku') cannot be resolved.

Answer 1

I am using Velocity 1.6.4 and for me it works the way you've written! Update your Velocity! As far as I have seen they have support for varags from version 1.6 !

Answer 2

Got it. I'm using axis, which seems to be using an older version of Velocity. Once velocity was set first in the classpath, it works. Thanks for the help.
