Why do you need this? There can be many spaces. Starting with XWiki 7.2 you can have nested documents and each nested document has an associated space which means you can have as many spaces as pages (e.g. thousands). More over, we cannot write a database query to retrieve the spaces (or the pages) the user has access to because access rights are defined at multiple levels (page, space, wiki, farm) that inherit from one another. This means you have to check the access rights for each space (or page) separately. Writing a query to retrieve all the spaces (or pages) and then check the access on each of them is very costly. I wouldn't do it. In any case, I added 2 examples to http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Query+Module#HQueryLanguageExamples on how to use the new XWikiSpace table (7.2+) Hope this helps, Marius > > I have the following: > > List<String> lstSpaces = new ArrayList<String>(); > XWikiContext xcontext = this.xwikiContextProvider.get(); > XWiki xwiki = xcontext.getWiki(); > lstSpaces = xwiki.getSpaces(xcontext); > > Although this successfully returns all the spaces, it also returns the > spaces for which the current user has no "view" or other access rights. > Also > it seems that the Java .getSpaces is deprecated and I can't seem to find > the > new method for this. http://maven.xwiki.org/site/docs/xwiki-javadoc-5.0.x/ > seems outdated as xwiki.getSpaces() is still active in this javadoc, with > no > alternative.
