error in 9.10 staging example from benerator 0.6.5 manual

[chrismaeda]

I'm trying to use the staging technology described in section 9.10 of the benerator manual.

When I add this to my file:

<include uri="{${stage}.properties}"/>

I get the following error:

try this instead:

Code: Select all

<include uri="{ftl:${stage}.properties}"/>

I think it's a known error in the documentation, and this is how it's done in 0.6.5.

@chrismaeda: thanks for the hint, I fixed the documentation
@jbristow: thanks a lot for helping out, I am happy that the forum gets a bit of support from other people while I am too busy.
