Description

Current shindig 1.0 views feature requires an instance of View to be passed as the view parameter to requestNavigateTo, opensocial 0.9 supports passing a string in place of this instance, and deprecates passing a View instance.

The patch attached is a back-port of the code from shindig 1.1 to support passing a string.
