Hi,
as I worked my way through the sources of WebKit today I
discovered something in Application.py what in my eyes
seems to be a major limitation of the capabilities WebKit
would be able to provide.
In Application.dispatchRequest() is a check for the existence
of a server-side match for the requested path.
ssPath = request.serverSidePath()
if ssPath is None:
self.handleBadURL(transaction)
So why do I think that this is a bad thing...
Today I tried to implement something I call ActionKit.
That component is a very streamlined URI->Action mapper
as you might know it from the struts framework for Java.
The idea is to map a certain "virtual" URI target to
a specific action class.
The problem is that naturally those "virtual" targets
don't exist on the file system. So per default there
are handled as BadURL and nothing happens (except for
a 404 ;))
My suggestion is that we move the file system stuff were
it (IMO) belongs - into the ServletFactories that handle
physical files.
Opinions?
Sascha
