Cristian..
Thank you so much for that input. I am able to create a new page with an
object added to it.
About the "inline" and "edit" modes, when I tried to open the page in
edit
mode, it did not copy the template for me. Is that how it works, or did I
make nay mistake in the querystring for getURL method...
When I changed it to inline...it worked ...
I need to know this because, now I am going to use an HTML form to enter the
values of Object properties and when I submit that form, I should add the
values of the text fields to the object and directly display the new page in
a "view" mode...(with inline, it opens it in the edit mode right!)
So, will the template be copied to my new page if I open it in "view"
mode!!!
Thanks

Hi Jain,
Well, from what I see, you add the object to the page but you don't save
the document. Nothing is final until you call $doc.save() or
$doc.saveWithProgrammingRights()
$xwiki.getDocument($docname) will only give you an unsaved version of the
document.
So you should add $newdoc.save() before the redirect.
Also, it might be better to use the inline action rather than the edit one
with object editor . I personally would use
$response.sendRedirect($newdoc.getURL("inline","template=${etemplate}&parent=${eparent}&title=$etitle"))
but the object editor might work for you (it deppends on what you want to
do).
Note that the inline action requires that the class has a sheet. (if you
created it with xwiki class editor it should have a default one).
Hello Cristian,
I tried that. But this does not direct me to the Object "form" that I
can
fill out with the values for all the properties.
basically, I want to be able to create a new page and then when the user
is
redirected to that page, the object should already be there for him to
fill
in.
I use this script to create a new page: (Obtained from create.vm)
#set($title = $request.getParameter("title"))
#set($template = "")
#set($template = $request.getParameter("template"))
#set($parent = "")
#set($parent=$request.getParameter("parent"))
#set($auxparams="")
#set($auxparams=$request.getParameter("auxparams"))
#set($docname=$title.replaceAll("/", "."))
#set($newdoc=$xwiki.getDocument($docname))
#set($etitle = $util.encodeURI($title))
#set($etemplate = $util.encodeURI("${template}"))
#set($eparent = $util.encodeURI("${parent}${auxparams}"))
#set($object =
$newdoc.newObject("PublishAnAsset.createMarketingFlyerClass"))
$response.sendRedirect($newdoc.getURL("edit",
"template=${etemplate}&parent=${eparent}&title=$etitle&editor=object"))
###includeForm("XWiki.TodoClassSheet")
But this jsut creates the new page for me.What should I add to this
script
so that the new page is created with an object of
the class mentioned!
Thanks a lot for all help

This will
return you the number of the object.
Then you can do #set( $myobj = $doc.getObject("MySpace.MyClass",$objnr)
)
and this will get you the actual object
Hope it helps ;)

Hello,
Can anybody tell me how to add an object of an already created class
to
a
new page using Velocity...not the interface
provided by Xwiki.
Which method do I need to call to achieve this!!!
Thanks
