Hi,
My problem is still unresolved. I have followed the suggestions from the FAQ
post:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/HowToListDocumentsWithACertainPropertyValue
And rewrote the code as follows:
#set($query="select obj from BaseObject obj where
obj.className='Contacts.ContactClass'")
#set($results=$xwiki.search($query, 10, 1))
#foreach($item in $results)
#set($doc=$xwiki.getDocument($item))
#set($obj=$doc.getObject('Cotacts.ContactClass'))
#set($firstname=$obj.getProperty('firstname').value)
#set($surname=$obj.getProperty('surname').value)
#set($phone1=$obj.getProperty('phone1').value)
$firstname | $surname | $phone1 <br />
#end
With the result:
$firstname | $surname | $phone1
$firstname | $surname | $phone1
I should add that I would have been confused if the above had worked. Please
let me know if my understanding of the object model is correct:
a) A class definition is essentially a special type of wiki page that
defines the class structure (i.e. properties).
b) No more than 1 class definition can be contained in this special type of
page.
c) Objects are instances of these classes and must be associate with a page.
(Can a single object be associated with more than 1 page?)
d) Multiple objects can be associated with a wiki page.
e) An HQL query iterates through the wiki pages, through each object in each
page and each property in each object
d) An HQL query specifying page/document constraints returns a Java List of
documents
e) An HQL query specifying object constraints returns a Java List of objects
(does not seem to be the case from the above code?!)
f) An HQL query specifying property constraints returns a Java List of
properties
Regards,
Tjaart
