The operations you want to perform may take some time, depending on the
number of affected pages, so I wouldn't block the HTML request, triggered
when you click the button, until the operation is done. Maybe this can help

Hi Devs,
I am a Master Student of Computer Science and of Business Information
Systems. I am developing my master thesis project on a case study coming
from Learnpad, unfortunately I have some problems in understanding the huge
amount of documentation provided by the XWiki website for developers,
anyway the idea behind my project is the following:
*Starting from a XWiki page, clicking on an hypothetical button, I want to
be able to start a Java application that will aplly changes to the XWiki
space, that are: *
- *Add and remove single or multiple pages to the space;*
- *Set the content of the new pages;*
- *Modify content of existing pages;*
I am wondering because it is not clear, for me, if I need to create a
new *extension
*or a new *component *or a *macro*(and the differences between them), how
to properly implement a java application for Xwiki or how to start it from
the Xwiki environment, if it is possible to modify XWiki spaces at runtime,
or how to associate java object to wiki pages....and stuff like that...
I've already read the documentation, checked the existing extension,
cheched the Github repository, but it is dispersive, sometimes too
technical (with some knowledge taken for granted) and sometimes too
general. In the end I am stucked because I don't know how to approach my
problem in this environment.
Do you have any suggestion to help me? I need to be put on the right truck
Kind Regards,
Giordano NinonĂ .
