Apache Velocity
Velocity is a Java-based template engine. It permits anyone to use the simple yet powerful template language to reference objects defined in Java code. When Velocity is used for Web development, Web designers can work in parallel with Java programmers to develop Web sites according to the Model-View-Controller (MVC) model, meaning that Web page designers can focus solely on creating a site that looks good, and programmers can focus solely on writing top-notch code. Velocity separates Java code from the Web pages, making the web site more maintainable over the long run and providing a viable alternative to Java Server Pages (JSPs) or PHP. Velocity also provides template services for the Turbine Web application framework, making a template service that allows Web applications to be developed according to a true MVC model.

Very easy to learn template language - even casual users can learn it, so it's not just for programmers.
Velocity 1.5 is slow
Hi..
This is Stan from India..
I have recently upgraded velocity 1.4 to velocity 1.5
And all the related jar files are updated..
I face a problem that.. the performance is down when updated from 1.4 to 1.5 in the development environment.. I mean that I have configured my project in JbossIDE 1.6
When I debug from there.. the performance is slow compared to velocity 1.4.. Why ?
But the performance is equal when I run the jboss in the run mode.. By running the run.bat file..
Need your reply soon..
