Juan Pablo Santos Rodríguez commented on JSPWIKI-719:
-----------------------------------------------------

what about

{code:title=org.apache.wiki.plugin.PluginManager.java|borderStyle=solid}
    private Class findPluginClass( String classname ) throws 
ClassNotFoundException
    {
        return ClassUtil.findClass( Arrays.asList( m_searchPath, 
"org.apache.wiki" ), classname );
    }
{code}

?

Shouldn't affect existing plugins, as their searchpath is used first; if not 
found (like in com.ecyrd.jspwiki.plugin.*) then we try on default plugin 
namespace.

> JSPWiki 2.9 uses the new org.apache.wiki package names.
> If you have a bunch of wiki pages with plugin invocations that include the 
> old (com.ecyrd.jspwiki) package name, this will now fail.
> So for example : 
> {noformat}
> Index Page 
> [{com.ecyrd.jspwiki.plugin.IndexPlugin}]
> {noformat}
> The suggestion is to patch the PluginManager to handle this by replacing the 
> old package name by the new one.
> See attached patch.
> What do you think ?
