Using Freemarker 2.3.19

[Foo Shyn Chung]

Hi all,

I found out that for freemarker to support the .now syntax i need to
upgrade the freemarker library to 2.3.17 or above. I check the trunk
repository, and found that it was upgraded to 2.3.15 but then was
subsequently downgraded to 2.3.10 by Hans. Just wondering is it that
running freemarker from version 2.3.10 above in ofbiz will cause issue? I'm
thinking to update my version to 2.3.19...haha..

For info i'm current developing my app using ofbiz 11.04 release branch.

Thanx
FooShyn

The new version is significantly slower, i contacted the creator of
freemarker, but he could not reproduce the problem.....

Regards,
Hans

I see.. then i think i have to find a workaround on this...we can pass
current date from Screens.xml into the freemarker right?

Thanx for the reply Hans.
