The question is how your software tool talks. If it can speak http then you can use $xwiki.getURLContent in velocity to send commands and get responses back. See: http://nexus.xwiki.org/nexus/service/local/repositories/releases/archive/org... If it only speaks some other language then I would need to know what that language is in order to help you chose a way to communicate with it. Caleb On 06/21/2011 08:49 AM, Frank Marrenbach wrote:
