Is it worth building a mechanism for conversation scope, compared to the complexity it introduces? I really dislike Spring Webflow with its conversation scope, stringent encapsulation and storage of massive amounts of data in various maps that locks away everything out of sight and makes it all taste like it's been massively over-architected (and of course the practically insurmountable learning curve)

Isn't it just easier to clean your variables out of the session manually when done? I'm not trying to provoke another rant, it's just that I've suffered my fair share of pain grappling with SWF and I find all justifications of its complexity unwarranted.

Hi Ray,

I'm not sure, but check out Tom's new scope plugin as it may get you part of the way there.

I was just reading one of your rants from August 07 that mentioned the need to use ModelDriven's model across a conversation and think this will be useful.

cheers,

JSF has a "ConversationScope" for extended series of requests/responses
dealing with the same topic, and usually the same data model. I'm thinking of writing an interceptor to simulate ConversationScope, and I'm wondering
if this has not already been done, and if so, does anyone have details,
code, etc.
