> Key: TAP5-948
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-948
> Project: Tapestry 5
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: tapestry-core
> Affects Versions: 5.1.0.0, 5.1.0.1, 5.1.0.2, 5.1.0.3, 5.1.0.4, 5.1.0.5,
> 5.0.15, 5.0.16, 5.0.17, 5.0.18
> Reporter: Kalle Korhonen
> Assignee: Howard M. Lewis Ship

> Discussed on Tapestry user thread:
> http://old.nabble.com/Best-practice-for-initializing-page-to-default-context-td26689270.html
> One of the cases where the issue manifests itself is that it's more difficult
> to initialize a page to default context than it needs to (and redirect to it)
> since event requests always cause a parameterless onActivate() to be invoked
> as well and there's no (framework-level) support for identifying event and
> render requests. There are many other uses for being able to easily identify
> links referring back to the same page.
> Howard says:
> "I've had to solve this problem for one of my clients as well and I think
> it's something that should go into the framework. The approach
> I took was to identify self-referential links (page render links that are to
> the same page they originate from) using an additional query
> parameter. This allows Tapestry to differentiate between requests that start
> on a new page vs. those that continue on the page. Tapestry can
> then fire a notification on components to perform initialization (on page
> render requests without the query parameter).
> This would be a new lifecycle method, like pageAttached() or pageLoaded().
> I'm still working on the right terminology, for Widen it is "initialized", as
> in method pageInitialized()."
