[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Add a ScriptService component role for components to expose APIs to scripting service

Hello all, We need to be able to expose APIs to scripting languages. Following the idea initially expressed by Vincent in this thread http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/devs/2009-August/013934.html, I would like to propose the following : - We add a org.xwiki.script.ScriptService component role, which is an empty tag interface that services class implements - A org.xwiki.script.ScriptServiceManager implementation gets all services injected in a roleHint/service map - This script service manager gets injected where script bindings are initialized and is bound "as is" with under "services" name. Currently in two places : in the XWikiScriptContextInitializer and in the DefaultVelocityManager (since velocity is treated separetely from JSR223 scripting languages for the moment). I've uploaded an initial patch on http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4551 if you want to give a look. My +1 Jerome.
