One of the items we're planning to address in the forthcoming bug fix release is a change to the internal execution of remoting requests. At the present time, a remote request will execute only the targeted event-handler in an isolated fashion, meaning that none of the internal events that normally execute within the lifecycle of a standard Model-Glue event are fired.
The Model-Glue team feels that this is a bug, and therefore we're intending to alter the processing of remoting requests so that they are handled in the same manner as standard events. This means that the full range of built-in event-handlers and their corresponding broadcasts will be run. From the standpoint of message broadcasts, once this change is made a remote request will now broadcast the following messages: onApplicationStart (when relevant) onSessionStart (when relevant) onRequestStart onQueueComplete onRequestEnd (For anyone wondering about onSessionEnd, as this is completely decoupled from the event lifecycle, its behavior will not change -- it is fired whenever a session ends.) Also, all of Model-Glue's internal phases will now be run by a remote request, meaning that an application will be initialized/reloaded as necessary, and event value population will also occur. As this modification will have the potential to break existing applications that leverage the remoting feature, we wanted to publicize this impending change, and solicit feedback from anyone who might feel that this not a wise idea. If you have an existing application that would be adversely impacted by this change, or have any other comments, please let us know. -- Ezra Parker -- Model-Glue Sites: Home Page: http://www.model-glue.com Documentation: http://docs.model-glue.com Bug Tracker: http://bugs.model-glue.com Blog: http://www.model-glue.com/blog You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "model-glue" group.
