Hello, Is it possible to pass arguments to a Groovy object instantiated using xwiki.parseGroovyFromPage("Blah.Blah"), or is there some other way to do it? Thanks, Joshua

You could have some init() methods in your groovy class to call when you have the objects.

BTW note that in XWiki Syntax 2.0 parseGroovyFromPage isn't needed. You can use the {{groovy}} and {{include}} macros instead. -Vincent

Ah, yes, that will work for many uses. To be more specific, what I'm looking to do is create a class that extends groovy.io.File. A File does not have a constructor that takes zero arguments, so I was looking for a way to pass arguments when the object is created rather than calling an init(). Otherwise, I can't even instantiate the object without just hardcoding the path into the class, which is not a viable option. Any suggestions? Thanks, Joshua

Thank you! This solved my issue. I was able to wrap the class in its own page with {{groovy}} {{/groovy}}, {{include}} that document, and create a new object with constructor arguments. -Joshua
