Well, I was thinking about a configuration item (a key-value pair)
with a standard configuration UI to define them after the macro
installation.
But you're right, a dedicated configuration class with all the
necessary fields is probably more effective.

Why would we need a WikiMacroConfigurationClass? For me it's not good since each
macro's need regarding configuration is different.
Thanks

Yes I agree with you, I will try this way.
Maybe, it will be fine if this kind of class will be a standard
component of XWiki (something like a WikiMacroConfigurationClass).
I don't know if there is an existing feature request about this. If
not, I will create one. @Vincent My question is about a groovy wiki
macro, sorry for the lack
of precision. I will read the suggested page about the Configuration
module. Thank you for the link.
ok we have not done this yet. I can see 2 solutions:
1) You create an XClass and an XObject with the config data and you access that XObject
from the macro
2) You lookup the ConfigurationSource using Utils.getComponent()
IMO the best is 1).
