In Alfresco versions prior to 3.0, this class lives in the alfresco-web-client.jar.
In Alfresco 3.0 onwards, you'll find it in alfresco-webscript-framework.jar.

Hi thanx a lot for u r reply the other day. Now i ran into another problem. I was trying to add users into alfresco using web scripts. To do that I need to get hold of the peopleService bean. As a result I was trying to get hold of the webApplicationContext of alfresco from the webscripts.

To do that I was trying to use

WebApplicationContext configurationApplicationContext= WebApplicationContextUtils.getWebApplicationContext(this.getWebScriptRegistry().getContext());

But it was not telling me getWebScriptRegistry() does not exist even though it is there in the api at

http://dev.alfresco.com/resource/docs/java/web-client/org/alfresco/web/scripts/AbstractWebScript.html

Can you anyone plz tell me how to get around it. Is this funtion no longer there in version 3.0 ? If it is not then how do I get hold of the webapplicationContext from a web script.

Thanking You
Faisal

The usual way of obtaining services in Java Backed scripts is to inject references via Spring.
