Therefore, in the interests of those who do not include paranormal extrasensory perception amongst their personal attributes:

ExitDirective.java

import java.io.IOException;

import java.io.Writer;


import org.apache.velocity.exception.ResourceNotFoundException;

import org.apache.velocity.exception.ParseErrorException;

import org.apache.velocity.exception.MethodInvocationException;

import org.apache.velocity.runtime.directive.Directive;

import org.apache.velocity.runtime.directive.DirectiveConstants;

import org.apache.velocity.context.InternalContextAdapter;

import org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.Node;


public class ExitDirective extends Directive {

  private static final String EXIT = "exit";

  private static final StopRenderingException STOP_RENDER_EXCEPTION = new StopRenderingException();

  

  public boolean render(InternalContextAdapter context, Writer writer, Node node) throws IOException, ResourceNotFoundException, ParseErrorException, MethodInvocationException {

    throw STOP_RENDER_EXCEPTION;

  }

  

  public int getType() {

    return DirectiveConstants.LINE;

  }

  

  public String getName() {

    return EXIT;

  }

  

}

StopRenderingException.java

import org.apache.velocity.exception.MethodInvocationException;


public class StopRenderingException extends MethodInvocationException {

  

  public StopRenderingException() {

    super("", null, "");

  }

  

}

Plus you'll need to add the directive to your VelocityEngine with something like:

ve.setProperty("userdirective", "ExitDirective");

Hope that helps... and if it doesn't, please email me.
