Hi devs, I need to have some Velocity macros in the file system because one use case where I need them is when the database is empty. So I put them in a new Velocity template file under /templates folder. I didn't want to add them to macros.vm because they are very specific and not used very often. Plus, I don't like the idea of putting all the macros in one single file.
I then tried to include these macros in my other template and some wiki page using #template. It didn't work. Surprisingly, when I attached the template with the macros to the skin it worked. By looking at the code I noticed that #template calls XWiki#evaluateTemplate which (if I understood correctly) registers the Velocity macros under * '' (global) namespace if the template is part of a skin * template name namespace if the template is not part of the skin. Both seem wrong: * in the first case, once you include the template the Velocity macros become available globally _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
