          public void doExecute(String locationArg,
                                ActionInvocation invocation)
                         throws IOException,
                                freemarker.template.TemplateException

      Execute this result, using the specified template locationArg.

      The template locationArg has already been interpolated for any variable substitutions

      this method obtains the freemarker configuration and the object wrapper from the provided hooks. It them implements the template processing workflow by calling the hooks for preTemplateProcess and postTemplateProcess

      Specified by:
        `doExecute` in class `StrutsResultSupport`
      Parameters:
        `locationArg` - location argument
        `invocation` - the action invocation
      Throws:
        `IOException` - in case of IO errors
        `freemarker.template.TemplateException` - in case of freemarker template errors

    - #### getConfiguration

          protected freemarker.template.Configuration getConfiguration()
                                                                throws freemarker.template.TemplateException

      This method is called from `doExecute(String, ActionInvocation)` to obtain the FreeMarker configuration object that this result will use for template loading. This is a hook that allows you to custom-configure the configuration object in a subclass, or to fetch it from an IoC container.

      The default implementation obtains the configuration from the ConfigurationManager instance.

      Returns:
        the freemarker configuration object
      Throws:
        `freemarker.template.TemplateException` - in case of freemarker configuration errors

    - #### getObjectWrapper

          protected freemarker.template.ObjectWrapper getObjectWrapper()

      This method is called from `doExecute(String, ActionInvocation)` to obtain the FreeMarker object wrapper object that this result will use for adapting objects into template models. This is a hook that allows you to custom-configure the wrapper object in a subclass.

      The default implementation returns `Configurable.getObjectWrapper()`

      Returns:
        the object wrapper from configuration

    - #### setWriter

          public void setWriter(Writer writer)

    - #### getWriter

          protected Writer getWriter()
                              throws IOException

      The default writer writes directly to the response writer.
      Returns:
        Writer the response writer
      Throws:
        `IOException` - in case of IO errors

    - #### createModel

          protected freemarker.template.TemplateModel createModel()
                                                           throws freemarker.template.TemplateModelException

      Build the instance of the ScopesHashModel, including JspTagLib support

      Objects added to the model are

      - Application - servlet context attributes hash model
      - JspTaglibs - jsp tag lib factory model
      - Request - request attributes hash model
      - Session - session attributes hash model
      - request - the HttpServletRequst object for direct access
      - response - the HttpServletResponse object for direct access
      - stack - the OgnLValueStack instance for direct access
      - ognl - the instance of the OgnlTool
      - action - the action itself
      - exception - optional : the JSP or Servlet exception as per the servlet spec (for JSP Exception pages)
      - struts - instance of the StrutsUtil class
      Returns:
        TemplateModel returns the created template model
      Throws:
        `freemarker.template.TemplateModelException` - in case of errors during creating the model

    - #### deduceLocale

          protected Locale deduceLocale()

      Returns the locale used for the `Configuration.getTemplate(String, Locale)` call. The base implementation simply returns the locale setting of the action (assuming the action implements `LocaleProvider`) or, if the action does not the configuration's locale is returned. Override this method to provide different behaviour,
      Returns:
        the locale from action if action implements the `LocaleProvider`) or local from configuration

    - #### postTemplateProcess

          protected void postTemplateProcess(freemarker.template.Template template,
                                             freemarker.template.TemplateModel model)
                                      throws IOException

      the default implementation of postTemplateProcess applies the contentType parameter
      Parameters:
        `template` - the freemarker template
        `model` - the template model
      Throws:
        `IOException` - in case of IO errors

    - #### preTemplateProcess

          protected boolean preTemplateProcess(freemarker.template.Template template,
                                               freemarker.template.TemplateModel model)
                                        throws IOException

      Called before the execution is passed to template.process(). This is a generic hook you might use in subclasses to perform a specific action before the template is processed. By default does nothing. A typical action to perform here is to inject application-specific objects into the model root
      Parameters:
        `template` - the freemarker template
        `model` - the template model
      Returns:
        true to process the template, false to suppress template processing.
      Throws:
        `IOException` - in case of IO errors

    - #### isWriteIfCompleted

          public boolean isWriteIfCompleted()

    - #### setWriteIfCompleted

          public void setWriteIfCompleted(Boolean writeIfCompleted)

      Parameters:
        `writeIfCompleted` - template is processed and flushed according to freemarker library policies
