There's this line: "And now, the components.txt file, in which component implementations present in this jar are specified for the ComponentManager to register them." This combined with Annotations makes registration. > In fact in the tutorial it seems we only need to create a component.txt file > and everything is auto-magically registered by the ComponentManager … Yes that's what is called registration (with annotations) :) There are some more details here (referenced from the tutorial: "You should start by reading the Reference document on XWiki Components."): http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Component+Module So for registration 2 solutions are possible: 1) automatically with annotations and components.txt 2) manually using the ComponentManager Thanks -Vincent _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
