Problem with freemarker and substring

[ribz33]

Hi,

i wanted to use substring function of freemarker but when i use it i have an error.
i had seen this function here :
http://freemarker.sourceforge.net/docs/ref_builtins_string.html

I had wrote this in my template:

- ${'abc'?substring(0)}

And i obtain an IO error.

Is there a problem of version or compatibility ?

Thx in advance

ok i ask myself :

Substring is a funciont from version 2.3.7 and alfresco 1.4 seems to use freemarker 2.3.3.

Ok i will try to find other solution for my template…

The final Alfresco 1.4 community edition uses FreeMarker 2.3.8. Previously we used 2.3.3.

Thanks,

Kevin
