[stringtemplate-interest] Conflict with jQuery's $

[Jeyaram Gurusamy]

Dear All,

I am just starting with StringTemplate. I am afraid that it could have been answered already but  I wasn't able to search the newsgroup archives.

ST seems to conflict with jQuery's $. The following code

   $("something").something

throws this error

action parse error in group mainGroup line 0; template context is [context_name]
line 1:20: unexpected token: .
    at org.antlr.stringtemplate.language.ActionParser.action(ActionParser.java:143)
    at org.antlr.stringtemplate.StringTemplate.parseAction(StringTemplate.java:879)

Is it a known problem? Is there a solution to it?

I understand that we shall change jQuery's $ to something else as it is just an alias to jQuery itself. But is there any other solution without touching jQuery's $?


Thank you very much for your time.

Regards
Jeyaram
