22 * *New script macro* (xwiki/2.0): The new script macros add the ability to use any scripting language supporting JSR-223. For now the default XWiki distribution comes with only a groovy 1.6 support but it easy to add support for other language (like ruby, python, etc.) simply by adding the corresponding engine and implementation. See https://scripting.dev.java.net/.

26 {{script language="groovy"}}
27 println "Hello World"

86
87 #warning("Always make sure you compare your <tt>xwiki.cfg</tt> file with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Of note, you should add <tt>xwiki.store.migration=1</tt> so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.")
