Max, Henry,
Can this be solved using the existing mechanism of a custom
dataprovider, which could implement a proxy policy? That was one
intention of the dataprovider API.
Better to do this in one place, as opposed to adding a new API for this.

Sounds good to me! By the way, I filed a bug to track the proxy
policy API change: http://jira.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-6058
Can you file one for doing the same with the proxyhost attribute?
Thanks!

A related issue, it would be nice to be able to specify the URL of
the proxy host, instead of it being
hardcoded to be the app url. How about a proxyhost attribute that
you can set in a similar manner?

Hi Folks,
I was thinking of deprecating the LzView.add/removeProxyPolicy()
APIs in favor of a new, simpler system. The current API looks
like
this:
LzView.addProxyPolicy ( f )
Adds a function which can decide how the media at a given URL
should
be loaded
@param Function f: A function that takes a URL as a string and
returns one of true, false, or null meaning respectively that the
request should be proxied by the LPS server; made directly to the
URL; or should be passed to the next policy function in the list.
The default policy function returns the value of canvas.proxied
LzView.removeProxyPolicy ( f )
Removes a proxy policy function that has been added using
LzView.addProxyPolicy
@param Function f: The function to remove from the policy list
@return Boolean: Returns true if the function was found and
removed,
false
if not
Instead, each view would be able to set its own proxy policy.
If a
view does not have an explicit proxy policy set, it looks up the
parent chain until it finds one. The canvas always has a default
proxy policy set. Views can change their proxy policy like this:
anyview.setProxyPolicy ( f )
Sets a proxy policy function on a per-view basis.
@param Function f: The function to use for this view's proxy
policy
Let me know what you think!
