Sorry for my vagueness, I've limited access to everything at the moment as I'm at the Java Symposium in Las Vegas just now so am just guessing from the context of these messages.
As such I think I get the queueCallback method now, and with that in mind, what purpose do the setTimeout/Interval, clearTimeout/Interval methods actually serve? Is it just to facilitate JavaScript/Ajax/Flex developers transition to Pivot? If so, I think they are fairly redundant - do we hope to win these people over? I somehow can't imagine an Ajax developer particularly going out of their way to pick up Pivot in the first place. It should just be documented that Timers and queueCallback are the approach for those people who search for those methods, IMHO. And I agree with the comment about setXXX being for properties, Pivot shouldn't be mixing metaphores just because this is an RIA project. =) Cheers, Chris 2009/3/19 Greg Brown <[email protected]> > >I guess my thoughts were that the internal ui queue should be private > >apart from one shot tasks that need to be kicked off at the end of any > >ui processing ie callLater. > > Not sure exactly what you mean, but I think that's pretty much how it > currently works.
