Concatenate string in HTML tag

I'm using Apache Velocity and need to append a string to a variable that I'm accessing using velocity.

Here's my current code with the desired functionality.

<div id="$settings.name" + "Setting"></div>

$settings.name is a variable being parsed by Velocity and "Setting" is the literal I want to append to it.

Can anyone provide me some information on how to achieve this?

Solution

  • A cursory google search has revealed the answer:

    It looks like you'll need to write it like this:

    id="${settings.name}Setting"
