/**
* Processes template source files substituting variables and expressions into
* placeholders in a template source text to produce the desired output using
* a streaming approach. This engine has equivalent functionality to the
* {@link SimpleTemplateEngine} but creates the template using writable
* closures making it potentially more scalable for large templates or in streaming scenarios.
*
* The template engine uses JSP style <% %> script and <%= %> expression syntax
* or GString style expressions. The variable 'out' is bound to the writer that the template
* is being written to.
*
* Frequently, the template source will be in a file but here is a simple
* example providing the template as a string:
*
* def binding = [
* firstname : "Grace",
* lastname : "Hopper",
* accepted : true,
* title : 'Groovy for COBOL programmers'
* ]
* def engine = new groovy.text.GStringTemplateEngine()
* def text = '''\
* Dear <%= firstname %> $lastname,
*
* We <% if (accepted) print 'are pleased' else print 'regret' %> \
* to inform you that your paper entitled
* '$title' was ${ accepted ? 'accepted' : 'rejected' }.
*
* The conference committee.
* '''
* def template = engine.createTemplate(text).make(binding)
* println template.toString()
*
* This example uses a mix of the JSP style and GString style placeholders
* but you can typically use just one style if you wish. Running this
* example will produce this output:
*
* Dear Grace Hopper,
*
* We are pleased to inform you that your paper entitled
* 'Groovy for COBOL programmers' was accepted.
*
* The conference committee.
*
* The template engine can also be used as the engine for {@link groovy.servlet.TemplateServlet} by placing the
* following in your web.xml file (plus a corresponding servlet-mapping element):
*
* <servlet>
* <servlet-name>GStringTemplate</servlet-name>
* <servlet-class>groovy.servlet.TemplateServlet</servlet-class>
* <init-param>
* <param-name>template.engine</param-name>
* <param-value>groovy.text.GStringTemplateEngine</param-value>
* </init-param>
* </servlet>
*
* In this case, your template source file should be HTML with the appropriate embedded placeholders.
