[VELOCITY-560] Should ExtendedProperties.convertProperties instead of ExtendedProperties.putAll - ASF JIRA

Details

In the developer-guide document (http://velocity.apache.org/engine/releases/velocity-1.5/developer-guide.html), there is a section, which talks about using ExtendedProperties to initialize VelocityEngine (at the bottom of #miscellaneousdetails).

At least for me, it didn't work as described. Instead of:
ExtendedProperties eprops = new ExtendedProperties();

// if you already have a Properties object do this
eprops.putAll(props);

It should be:
ExtendedProperties eprops = null;
if (props==null)

{ eprops = new ExtendedProperties(); }

else

{ eprops = convertProperties(props); }

This is obviously very minor, but may save someone 15 minutes.
