The answer is yes. XWS is built on top of XE, which itself is build on
topof the XWiki platform, so it naturally embed all those. The only thing
that you may not find exactly as in XE are some velocity templates files
overridden in the templates/ directory of the webapp (also there are not
many).

Hope this helps,
Jerome.

Thanks Jerome, I have already started on that. What I would like to  
know is it is possible. In making the Workspace easier and more  
straighforward to use, has some functionalities ( jars, templates,  
rights etc) been taken out from the XWiki Enterprise. Do I still have  
all the functionalities of Enterprise under the hood?

Harjeet.

If you are new to XWiki, my best advice would be that you first get
experienced with its platform and development practices in XWiki
Enterprise before trying to extend XWiki Workspaces. Then, if you really
are willing to develop/integrate new application inside Workspaces, the
best way to start is to look how its current application are built. For
example, for the Wiki application, you can look at the code under the
XWSWiki/ space and the application descriptor in XWSApps/WikiApp.

Hope this helps, Regards,
Jerome.

[xwiki-users] Extensibility of Workspaces

2008-04-07 Thread Harjeet Singh
Hello,
Can the applications for Xwiki Enterprise be added to the Xwiki  
Workspaces. On the XWiki Workspaces main page it mentions that -
"Of course, under the hood Workspaces is based on Enterprise, and with  
some work you can get the same extensibility, but this is not the goal  
of this product."

Should I even try extending the XWiki Workspaces the way it is  
possible with Xwiki Enterprise, since I am fairly new to XWiki. There  
is this concept of User spaces which is very appealing in the  
Workspaces which I really require. What are the limitations which I  
would be working against, so that I do not try to solve a problem  
which cannot be solved or atleast with decent effort.

An example of what I would like to try is bring in the application of  
forums besides others

Thanks in advance,
Harjeet.
