Looking at
cocoon\build\cocoon-2.1.5.1\classes\org\apache\cocoon\components\flow\javasc
ript\fom\fom_system.js, the sendPageAndWait method is really a sendPage call
with some extra stuff, just like you said:
FOM_Cocoon.suicide = new Continuation();
FOM_Cocoon.prototype.sendPageAndWait = function(uri, bizData, fun, ttl) {
this.sendPage(uri, bizData,
new FOM_WebContinuation(new Continuation(),
this.continuation, ttl));
if (fun) {
if (!(fun instanceof Function)) {
throw "Expected a function instead of: " + fun;
}
fun();
}
FOM_Cocoon.suicide();
}
It seems it's FOM_Cocoon.suicide(); that halts execution (duh). I tried
using this:
function testingSome() {
var c = cocoon.createWebContinuation();
print("Continuation = " + c.id);
FOM_Cocoon.suicide();
print("Continued executing.");
}
When I call this test method, it displays a continuation id and then halts.
When I call the continuation using the print'ed continuation id to resume
execution, it seems it's picking up execution right after the
createWebContinuation() call, which means it only prints the "Continuation =
<id>" again and then executes suicide - whereas I wanted it to pick up right
after its suicide line and print the "Continued executing." part.
I guess I'm supposed to use this in some other way, but I'm not that
familiar with flowscript. What am I doing wrong?
regards,
Ulf Sahlin
