I have a StatefulSnippet that uses a CometActor to keep users
informed when performing a lengthy task, much like the example on the
demo site ( http://demo.liftweb.net/longtime).
The only difference being I pass the CometActor an identifier so it
knows which job to inform the user about.
When the task is over I need to display a form to the user, which I
would assume would be rendered by the snippet.
How does the actor tell the snippet the task is complete ?
The Actor has to know about the snippet... you could send the Actor a
message with a reference to the snippet and then call a method on the
snippet when the Actor is done. Does that do it for you?
I don't see how I can I do that. Currently the comet actor is setup in a
snippet, see below, how do get a reference to the actor to send it a
message ?
lift:comet type=WatchDog name={id}
span id=statustwd:statusWatch dog status/twd:status/span
/lift:comet
The id being passed via the name parameter is a reference the job to
monitor. I mention this only as I'm not sure if it's bad form or not.
I assuming it is trivial and I've thought or coded myself into a
corner.
Thanks in advance.

In the snippet that yields this code:

} session.setupComet(WhatDog, Full(id), HeyDudeIMSoStateful(this)) // send
the HeyDudeIMSoStateful message on setup... this can be anything
lift:comet type=WatchDog name={id}

Cool, would the correct place to collect the message be in one of the
priority functions ?
For instance ?
override def lowPriority : PartialFunction[Any, Unit] = {
case SnippetMessage(wrappedSnippet) = snippet = wrappedSnippet
Thanks for the help.
