other actions will take place in the subdialog. < subdialog End state>
should be terminated and give the control back to AppMainClass.
using one Parent Dialog for the entire application and several Subdialog
(Babys Dialog) for updating the Parent Dialog data... in my App. the
Subdialog need the Information Data from the Parent Dialog but each
subdialog had the own Actions for manipulating the data provided from the
Parent Dialog "DataClassName"
and give it back. and so on...
the Subdialog live only for a Request Scope Time
Dialog had a Application Scope Time ("=Dialog Scope" in my case)
This helps a lot in understanding what you are trying to do. One
thing to remember is that subdialog instances get their *own* data
objects, rather than sharing the same data object as the parent. At
the moment, there is no easy way to automatically access the parent's
data object (making this possible would be a good enhancement
request). As a workaround for now, consider exposing the parent's
data object as a separate session scope attribute, in addition to
being a data object.
Note that *all* DialogContext instances, and therefore the data
objects they reference, are held in session scope, because they are
specific to a particular user. You cannot store the dialog context
instances in application scope, because they would then be shared by
all users -- and one user performing a transition between states would
mess up the navigation for everyone else.
