Help executing velocity example

[Justin Howard]

Hi All,

I am trying to run a simple example. The helloworld.vm is present in the same folder.

    
import java.io.StringWriter;
import org.apache.velocity.app.VelocityEngine;
import org.apache.velocity.Template;
import org.apache.velocity.VelocityContext;
public class HelloWorld
{
    public static void main( String[] args )
        throws Exception
    {
        /*  first, get and initialize an engine  */
        VelocityEngine ve = new VelocityEngine();
        ve.init();
        /*  next, get the Template  */
        Template t = ve.getTemplate( "helloworld.vm" );
        /*  create a context and add data */
        VelocityContext context = new VelocityContext();
        context.put("name", "World");
        /* now render the template into a StringWriter */
        StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
        t.merge( context, writer );
        /* show the World */
        System.out.println( writer.toString() );     
    }
}

But I get this exception

    
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.velocity.exception.ResourceNotFoundException: Unable to find resource 'helloworld.vm'
	at org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.ResourceManagerImpl.loadResource(ResourceManagerImpl.java:483)
	at org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.ResourceManagerImpl.getResource(ResourceManagerImpl.java:354)

	at org.apache.velocity.app.VelocityEngine.getTemplate(VelocityEngine.java:401)
	at com.aexp.test.HelloWorld.main(HelloWorld.java:15)

Thanks
