[xwiki-users] What is happening with xcontext object through process of creating a new page?

      Hi,

In order to customize WYSIWYSG editor only on some pages I have made 
following changes in wysiwyg_storeConfig macro:

   #macro(wysiwyg_storeConfig $parameters $editedDocument $fieldId $full)
   ...
   #if($xcontext.contains('wysiwyg_overriding_parameters'))
     #set($ok = 
$parameters.putAll($xcontext.putAll('wysiwyg_overriding_parameters')))
   #end
   ...
  #end

Part of sheet for these pages looks like this:

   #set($overriding_parameters = $util.hashMap)
   #set($ok = $overriding_parameters.put('plugins', ...))
   #set($ok = $overriding_parameters.put('menu', ...))
   #set($ok = $overriding_parameters.put('toolbar', ...))
   #set($ok = $xcontext.put('wysiwyg_overriding_parameters', 
$overriding_parameters))

This is good enough for editors on previously created pages. Editors 
look (in inline mode) just the way I want. But, on new pages editors 
always use default configuration.

To test these unexpected result I added following two lines in the sheet:

   #set($ok = $xcontext.put('foo', 'bar'))
   $xcontext.get('foo')

On new pages $xcontext.get('foo') is displayed, and on existing ones it 
is bar.

Thanks,
Ozren
