/**
* Objects that implement this interface can be used as user-defined directives
* (much like macros); you should rather use the newer {@link TemplateDirectiveModel}
* instead. Altough implementing output filters is more handy with this interface,
* this interface will be certainly deprecated as superfluous, starting from
* FreeMarker 2.4. But as far as the template engine is concerned, you can use both
* equivalently as a user-defined directive.
*
* Note that, as of FreeMarker 2.1, TemplateTransformModel
* has changed. This is a more powerful implementation.
* There is a quick-and-dirty way to patch any legacy
* TemplateTransformModel so that it implements the new API.
* You simply add the following as your implementation
* of the getWriter() call:
*
*
* public Writer getWriter(final Writer out,
* Map args)
* {
* final StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
* return new Writer() {
* public void write(char cbuf[], int off, int len) {
* buf.append(cbuf, off, len);
* }
*
* public void flush() throws IOException {
* out.flush();
* }
*
* public void close() throws IOException {
* StringReader sr = new StringReader(buf.toString());
* StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
* transform(sr, sw);
* out.write(sw.toString());
* }
* };
* }
*
