The ' entity is an XML entity, rather than an HTML entity, and is not
supported by Internet Explorer. The numeric form is supported in both XML
and HTML.
Some of the automatically generated headers are suppressed because
they are for information only, and not very useful. These include
Bnd-LastModified, Include-Resource, Private-Package and Tool.
I've ironed out most of the kinks, but the GWT unit test still fails because
we're forced to do some sneaky things with java.io.Reader/Writer. I think it
will all work when compiled to JavaScript, so I need to check it in a real
project.
Kali/Bertrand convinced me that being consistent with other Mustache
implementations is more important than whatever wacky reasons I was harboring
for keeping compound variables different than singleton sections.
a pluggable component.
This allows scaling down to the GWT environment by hiding the reflection code
via GWT's super source mechanism.
And it allows scaling up to non-Java languages (like Scala) by allowing the
library client to extend the DefaultCollector and teach it about Scala
Iterators, Iterables and Maps.
I also just realized that GWT has no facilities for Reader and Writer, which is
going to complicate making things work in GWT even further. But for now, I'll
just leave things as is.
Otherwise you get undesirable newline skipping if you do things like, for
example:
{{#foos}}
{{bar}}{{^-last}}, {{/-last}}
{{/foos}}
where you want the newline after {{/-last}}, but it was getting skipped.
Reorganized the parser as a proper class so that I could easily reenter it to
deal with things like optional second open and close tag characters. In the
process, made the parser simply pass through certain kinds of malformed input
as text.
I hope to go further in this regard, avoiding parse exceptions in favor of
simply showing the user the malformed output unsubstituted. It's just as easy
to see "{{broken blah blah" in ones result template as it is to read exception
messages, and apps that wish to use JMustache for things like end-user
templates will find this much more agreeable.
for use when variables resolve to null, but still wishes for exceptions to be
thrown when values are not resolvable (i.e. are typos). Pre-existing behavior
is preserved if one uses defaultValue() or does not change the default
configuration.
Nota bene: there are complexities, so be sure to read the documentation.
