Then you put the $jsx.use in your java macro.
This looks promising. From the context of a java macro is there
any way to use the $jsx type references?
You'll need to create a MacroBlock with a name of velocity.
but in any case you'll need to put you Javascript extension object in
a wiki page.
I wonder if we're looking at the wrong solution. In this case I want to include a
javascript resource file such as jQuery.js so what I really want is to specify a script
tag to be added to the header rather than an embedded javascript extension object
content.
I suppose I could look at the jsx extension code to see how this is done as it is clearly
doing this somehow?
