ftl : if_exists is deprecated

Sumit Pandit-3
Hello Devs and Users,

I was reading freemarker manual. And i found the page that stated that the if_exist is being deprecated. The link to the page is as follows :
http://fmpp.sourceforge.net/freemarker/ref_depr_builtin.html

I have tested the "default value operator" "!" which deprecate if_exist and it works fine.

So what should our next step ?

We already use the ! operator. I tried to replace all if_exists but I gave up
There is already a thread in dev http://www.nabble.com/Freemarker-deprecated-built-ins-td18074068.html
(only the five 1st posts or so are relevant)

Actually the last thing I wrote was
"The current builtins work well and are easy to read. I finally decided to do nothing. We will see if ever it's needed. "
Anyway IIRW it's not a big work to do (just a replace, with some quirks)

Yes I am agree with you Jacques. But for new implementation, we should use default value operator.

Thoughts ?
