Hi all,
  I'm sure this is a lack of understanding
on my part, but I can't seem to enable any of the additional tools in velocity.
 I've added the mathtool to the toolbox.xml under WEB-INF (and restarted),
but $math is still not available in pages. I added the following to toolbox.xml:
  <tool>
    <key>math</key>
    <scope>application</scope>
    <class>org.apache.velocity.tools.generic.MathTool</class>
  </tool>
And my web.xml points to that toolbox.xml
(though I think that's only for the velocityview servlet configuration,
not used in xwiki?).  Is there anything else I need to do to enable
$math in a page?
I did find that if I explicitly load
it, it works: 
#set ($math = $context.getClass().forName("org.apache.velocity.tools.generic.MathTool").newInstance())
I know this is highly unrecommended,
and I'd like to get it working the normal way.  Any suggestions?
-Tom
