If you're using Spring then you could wire up the following (we have it
wired into the applicationContext-service.xml file):
<bean id="velocityEngine"
class="org.springframework.ui.velocity.VelocityEngineFactoryBean">
<property name="velocityProperties">
<props>
<prop key="resource.loader">class</prop>
<prop key="class.resource.loader.class">
org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.loader.ClasspathResourceLoader
</prop>
<prop key="velocimacro.library"/>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
Although we're injecting it into services that generate email I would
expect you can also inject the engine as a setter to an action. There
are static methods available in VelocityEngineUtils that can be
leveraged thereafter.

Subject: [S2] Using an existing velocity template within struts2?
Hi All,
I have a small problem. I have an object that generates a velocity
template that I want to use within a struts2 application that is using
velocity... the method that produces the html is called from within
the template. Anyhow, I cannot seem to make this work unless I call
Velocity.init() explicitly within the action. Is there a better way?
Thanks,
James
