[xwiki-users] Velocity script objects mapping to XWiki API ?

[Jean-Lou Dupont]

Many thanks for the info: from what I gather, there is naming convention
applicable here for the plugins. 

Now, what about the other members of the API interface, namely "Element" and
"User" ?
I have tried accessing methods of "Element" (getName, getBaseElement) to no
avail. The same goes for "User".

Jld.
PS: I must say Xwiki is an excellent piece of engineering design. Kudos to
the team!

Hi,
for example you can get the mail plugin by :
#set($mailPlugin = $xwiki.mail)

So you just put the name of the plugin after $xwiki
