/**
* This class provides services to the application
* developer, such as :
*
* - Simple Velocity Runtime engine initialization methods.
*
- Functions to apply the template engine to streams and strings
* to allow embedding and dynamic template generation.
*
- Methods to access Velocimacros directly.
*
*
*
* While the most common way to use Velocity is via templates, as
* Velocity is a general-purpose template engine, there are other
* uses that Velocity is well suited for, such as processing dynamically
* created templates, or processing content streams.
*
*
* The methods herein were developed to allow easy access to the Velocity
* facilities without direct spelunking of the internals. If there is
* something you feel is necessary to add here, please, send a patch.
