All Implemented Interfaces:: DeprecatedRuntimeConstants, RuntimeConstants

public class RuntimeSingleton
extends Object
implements RuntimeConstants

This is the Runtime system for Velocity. It is the single access point for all functionality in Velocity. It adheres to the mediator pattern and is the only structure that developers need to be familiar with in order to get Velocity to perform.

The Runtime will also cooperate with external systems, which can make all needed setProperty() calls before calling init().

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------
 N O T E S  O N  R U N T I M E  I N I T I A L I Z A T I O N
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------
 RuntimeSingleton.init()

 If Runtime.init() is called by itself the Runtime will
 initialize with a set of default values.
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------
 RuntimeSingleton.init(String/Properties)

 In this case the default velocity properties are laid down
 first to provide a solid base, then any properties provided
 in the given properties object will override the corresponding
 default property.

```
    Parse the input and return the root of AST node structure.
    
    In the event that it runs out of parsers in the pool, it will create and let them be GC'd dynamically, logging that it has to do that. This is considered an exceptional condition. It is expected that the user will set the PARSER_POOL_SIZE property appropriately for their application. We will revisit this.
