             Summary: "incompatibleImprovements" setting should be set
                 Key: JBIDE-20491
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-20491
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: freemarker
            Reporter: Daniel Dekany


Where the {{freemarker.template.Configuration}} is created, the {{incompatibleImprovements}} setting shouldn't be left on its default, 2.3.0. It should be set to {{Configuration.getVersion()}} (like {{new Configuration(Configuration.getVersion())}}, or with `config.setIncompatibleImprovements(Configuration.getVersion())`).

Why: The plugin doesn't execute the template, just parses them. As of 2.3.24, all the "incompatible" fixes that affect the parser (not the execution) just makes it stricter by eliminating legacy parser glitches that let through things that are pretty much always just user oversights. Also when 2.3.24 is out, the new `ftlh` and `ftlx` file extensions, which affect parsing, will only have effect with `incompatibleImprovements` 2.3.24.
