included-view

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 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'.
