The idea of starting with a new conversation every time the user selects a new
sidebar menu item (e.g. User Management, Add new Issue ...) is very important
to me. What I have been doing is just joining the conversation every time the
user selects a new sidebar item. This however left a lot of things in the
conversation which was not needed ... resulting in a lot of resource wasting.
What I am going to do is use Gavin's suggestion of not propagating the
conversation context<h:commandLink action="main" value="User Management">
| <f:param name="conversationId" value="new"/>
| </h:commandLink>
This does start a new conversation when the user selects a different sidebar
item. Unfortunately it leaves a lot of "stale" conversations in the session
(one for each time the user selected a different sidebar item). Ultimately
leading to the same resouce wasting issue. This is expted as the documentation
clearly highlights the issue.
Note that disabling conversation context propagation is absolutely not the
same thing as ending the conversation.
What would really be good for me is to have some thing to kill all the
conversations when the link is clicked, and then starting a new conversation
with an @Begin
something like<h:commandLink action="main" value="User Management">
| <f:param name="conversationId" value="killAll"/>
| </h:commandLink>
where killAll is a "magic" keyword for the interceptor. Alternatively extend
the @Begin with an option specifying that all other conversations should be
killed.
| @Begin(otherConversationsState="killAll")
| public String startFresh()
|
Obviously if we have access to something through the API one can do something
like
| @Begin
| public String startFresh()
| {
| conversation.killAllOthers();
| ....
|
Anyway, my rambling thoughts ;-)
