Description

« Hide

Based on dev list discussions, it will be worthwhile to explore the possibility of using Commons SCXML for the internals of Shale dialogs. Additionally, supporting the use of SCXML documents to describe Shale dialogs also has numerous advantages. A starting point for this work is available here:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/scxml/usecases/scxml-in-shale-dialogs.html

Now that we've had a Commons SCXML release and discussions about Shale dialogs have begun afresh, its a good time to add this request as a JIRA ticket.

ASF	#439203	Fri Sep 01 06:21:09 UTC 2006	craigmcc	Commit the proposed Commons SCXML based implementation of the sandbox dialog2 APIs (see ~~SHALE-263~~) as is, before doing any refactoring or renaming.

ASF	#442739	Tue Sep 12 22:29:12 UTC 2006	rahul	Replace the legacy dialog-config.xml with the SCXML dialog-config.xml and individual dialog descriptors. The files were created by a slightly modified version of the stylesheet attached to ~~SHALE-263~~, and then hand-edited for better indentation and order (to match the order of states in the legacy dialog-config.xml for ease of comparison).

ASF	#469332	Tue Oct 31 01:14:30 UTC 2006	rahul	Introduce the notion of a DialogStateMapper which maps dialog state IDs to JSF view IDs. * The current FacesContext is available to this mapping, so it is possible to support multiple sets of views over user agents, modalities, locales, user roles etc. (ofcourse, the latter two on rare occassions) and share the same dialog "controller". * The default behavior is an identity transform, the state ID is used as-is as the view ID (a leading slash is added, if needed) * That behavior can be changed by replacing the application scope bean (which implements DialogStateMapper) at key "org$apache$shale$dialog$scxml$STATE_MAPPER" Removed related TODOs from code, added new one as a reminder to document this bit. ~~SHALE-263~~
