@with variables cannot reference those within the same @with

[albert-kam]

So i have this @with in my template:

@with(MyFields fields = getMyFields(),
        nameField = fields.get("name"),
        passwordField = fields.get("password")) {
    my template content here
}

This will cause

error cannot find symbol
  symbol:   variable fields

But .. when i do this instead, it runs okay.

@with(MyFields fields = getMyFields()) {
    @with(nameField = fields.get("name"),
            passwordField = fields.get("password")) {
        my template content here
    }
}

Preferably for me though is that all vars within a single @with should be able to see one another, without having to resort to nested @with-s.

Thank you ...

@albert-kam I'd certainly be open to making the multi-with statement version work as well if you were interested in creating a PR and the unit tests. As you point out, nested with statements will always work if you need to work with multiple variables.

• java 8
• rocker 1.3.0
  The syntax is not very clear at
  With blocks (set one or more variables) (@with)

Wen using this snippet:

@with (Collection<OrgLocation> locs = org.getLocations())) {
    @views.locationsFrag.template(locs) -> {}
}

I got a compile error: cannot find symbol variable with

Even basic not working, I'm doing something wrong?

• What I actually wont to achieve: call a function to filter a collection of locations and then pass it to another template, is this even possible?
• In template when calling java function which returns class can it be set to a variable in the template?

Sample:

@import si.arnes.db.aris.bean.Organization
@import si.arnes.db.aris.bean.OrgLocation
@import static views.Utils.filterPostalLocations
@import java.util.Collection

@args (Organization org, RockerBody content)
Organizacija:   @org.getName()
Matična:        @org.getRegistrationNumber()
Koda:           @org.getCode().name()
@with (Collection<OrgLocation> locs = filterPostalLocations(org.getLocations()))) {
   @views.locationsFrag.template(locs) -> {}
}

Does it work without @with ?

[sysmat]

yes it works, I do it @views.locationsFrag.template(filterPostalLocations(org.getLocations())) -> {}
