(B> Hello *,
(B> 
(B> I am looking for a convenient way to provide a nice UI for my app(s)
(B> without having to tangle UI and application code too much. So when I
(B> came across the EFL, I became curious. At first glance Edje seems to be
(B> close to what I am looking for, but after reading the Edje Dev Guide I
(B> have a question:
(B> 
(B> Suppose I have a list of strings with a lot of entries (> 1000). Further
(B> suppose, that this list changes frequently (at least once per minute)
(B> without user interaction (i.e. the change is triggered by the backend). 
(B> What is the best way to expose this via Edje?
(B> 
(B> To elaborate a bit:
(B> 
(B>   * Chapter 5 of the Edje Dev Guide mentions that events can come from
(B>     Edje, from the user, or from the window manager. How about events
(B>     that occurr in the application itself?
(B>     
(B>   * Do I have to store each entry in the list as an Edje text part? I
(B>     feel reluctant to keep two copies of a each object that my app
(B>     exposes to the UI: one in the app backend and one in the UI part.
(B>     Is there a way to have Edje fetch the 30 or so entries, that are on
(B>     screen simultaniously, from the backend? I.e. is it possible to
(B>     create a UI that pulls object from the backend lazyly?
(B> 
(B> 
(B> Well, that were more than enough questions for a newbie on the list ;)

(Bedje doesn't really handle lists of things in any way - well not yet. i'd love
(Bto add that stuff, and started some code for it, but it isn't possible atm. :(
