| Description | Indicates whether this Velocity Context Provider is enabled. If set to 'false' this Velocity Context Provider will not contribute context content for any requests. |
| Default Value | true |
| Allowed Values | true false |
| Multi-Valued | No |
| Required | No |
| Admin Action Required | None. Modification requires no further action |
| Description | Scope for context objects contributed by this Velocity Context Provider. Must be either 'request' or 'session' or 'application'. |
| Default Value | application |
| Allowed Values | application - Objects contributed by this Velocity Context Provider need only once per the life of the server's JVM instance. session - Objects contributed by this Velocity Context Provider should be created once per the current client request's session. request - Objects contributed by this Velocity Context Provider should be created for each client request. |

| Description | The name of a view for which this Velocity Context Provider will contribute content. A provider may be restricted to specific views using the included-view and excluded-view properties. If one or more views are specified by this property then only requests for those views will result in this Velocity Context Provider contributing content for the request's Velocity context. If this property is unspecified and this provider is not excluded by the excluded-view property, this provider will contribute content for all requests. A view name is the URL request path to a template that does not include the HTTP servlet extension's base context path, nor a starting path separator. So for example if a template was accessible by the URL http://localhost:8080/view/path/to/template the view name would be 'path/to/template'. |
| Default Value | None |
| Allowed Values | A string |

| Description | Specifies HTTP header fields and values added to response headers for template page requests to which this Velocity Context Provider contributes content. The values specified here will override those configured for the same field names in the Velocity HTTP Servlet Extension. A Velocity Context Provider may also manipulate header fields in its updateContext method by updating the HTTP response directly. Values specified here must specify both the header field name and the value in conformance with RFC 2616. Fields may only be specified once; multiple values for the same header should be comma-separated. See RFC 7231 for a standard set of field names. |
| Default Value | None |
| Allowed Values | Colon-separated header field name and value |

| Description | The fully-qualified name of a Velocity Tool class that will be initialized for each request. May optionally include a path to a properties file used to configure this tool separated from the class name by a semi-colon (;). The path may absolute or relative to the server root. All classes specified using this property must be marked with the org.apache.velocity.tools.config.DefaultKey class annotation. |
| Default Value | None |
| Allowed Values | Velocity Tool class name and optional path to a properties file that will be used to initialize the tool instance when it is instantiated, separated by a semi-colon. For example, org/apache/velocity/tools/generic/ResourceTool;/path/to/file. The path may absolute or relative to the server root. |
