Re: [xwiki-users] Using a local class within a wiki page

Ok I think I know... Actually the message is printed in the console. You see something in the page only if you print in the global scope because this is what gets returned by script evaluation. Calling “println” in a class doesn’t return anything in the evaluation and thus you don’t see anything. That’s why the examples at http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Groovy+Macro work.

Right, makes sense. So looks like the best fix is to return the string and print it from global (script) scope. This works: {{groovy}} class Callee { def hello() { return "hello, world" } } c = new Callee() println c.hello() {{/groovy}}
