Except that you need PR in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Scripting#HSharevariablebetweenlanguages use case since you are going to execute both groovy and velocity. Script service is the best to provide reusable APIs. An alternative not listed by Guillaume depending on what is your need is to put your groovy code in a wiki macro which is then used from any wiki code (in that case only the wiki macro document require programming right). There is several kinds of "macros" in XWiki, wiki macros as in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/WikiMacroTutorial as not deprecated, on the contrary (they actually are components). > > Thanks > -Vincent > > _______________________________________________ > devs mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs -- Thomas Mortagne _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
