Kin-Man Chung <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|REOPENED |RESOLVED Resolution| |INVALID --- Comment #10 from Kin-Man Chung <[email protected]> 2009-01-12 11:05:39 PST --- I reread the spec on this issue carefully, and after some consideration, I've come to the conclusion that it is best that we don't "fix" the spec and the implementation now. The original intend of the spec is to set the variables in the calling page/tag before the invocation of the fragment. This is problematic, since that means that fragments passed from one tag file to another cannot communicate with the original caller using variables, as demonstrated in the case here. From the paragraphs on page 2-78, the original spec author seemed to know this. The way the variables are synchronized between the calling page and the tag files is reminiscent of passing information in global variables and we all know that global variables are evil. Any attempt for a simple fix to one problem will cause problems in another area. My proposed fix for this problem will cause problems with the save and restore operations at the tag entry and exit. What is needed is a complete redesign of the way calling page and tag files communicate. The is of course impractical or impossible at this time. Therefore I am withdrawing my patch. Mark, please revert your changes.
