public class EscapeTool
extends org.apache.velocity.tools.generic.EscapeTool

Tool for working with escaping in Velocity templates. It provides methods to escape outputs for Velocity, Java, JavaScript, HTML, XML and SQL.

Extends the default EscapeTool from velocity-tools since the XML escape performed by it doesn't work inside HTML content, since apos is not a valid HTML entity name, and it always escapes non-ASCII characters, which increases the HTML length considerably, while also making the source unreadable.

Since:

2.7RC1
