Jim -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [jsr-314-open] JSF Ajax Meeting Minutes Date: Tue, 24 Nov 2009 11:03:10 -0800 From: Jim Driscoll To: jsr-314-ajax-ext(a)sun.com Nov 24th, JSF Ajax Meeting minutes Attending Nick Alex Jay Ted Andy Roger Jim During the meeting, we primarily went over the following list of issues: http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/JSFAjaxpointsfordiscussionwithEG First up: PartialResponseWriter should be more intelligent about handling new elements when inside a component. spec bug 658. One idea: if a new element is started, write it out after the update is finished writing. This is a small spec change that could be a spec clarification, and a fix to the impl (the impl fix may take a little while - it's liable to be somewhat risky change). (AI: Jim will write up a tentative proposal) Other idea (from Alex): Allow for some override of PartialViewContext, to allow for a more robust rendering options. There were some concerns about multi-libarary compatability, and this would be an attempt to allow for better multi-libarary interop. Alex tentatively agreed to flesh out this idea, if the above proposal does not meet RichFaces' needs. There's a request for a new event - after complete, and after each individual dom update (success happens after *all* dom updates). We'll need more details (I'll add a new spec RFE for this). Errors - in the event that 3 updates happen, if the 2nd fails, the third should still be attempted. This falls into the level of spec clarification, and impl fix. I'll file appropriate bugs. Add request options to event payload. Alex will take AI to elaborate. Add begin, complete, success constants. ex: jsf.ajax.BEGIN ? I'll add a spec RFE. Add ability to abort a request before XHR is created: from the begin event, a token could be aquired, and an abort() function called. Jim will take the AI to write this up. Response XML needs a version attribute. I'll file a spec RFE. Add ability to skip response processing - prehaps an abort like begin? (Jim AI) Support for request timeout (will file as spec RFE) Can be quite serious, since a network error can result in a hung app. Would like a config param (from the server) on a per-app basis, js api for per-request. Since this is so serious in effect, I'll also file a impl RFE as well. Form serialization should happen at the last possible second (just before the begin event), not on submission time. There was wide agreement that this is a problem, and requires a spec change. May only be a spec clarification - I'll have to check the spec to be sure. Regardless, this is a spec bug, and I'll file it. Be able to get a list of all registered JSF events. (and, while we're at it, the ability to deregister an event)... This will probably require two new functions client-side. Jim will file RFE on spec. Address IE freeze for inline script eval - either setTimeout or execScript. (Jim will file impl bug). Add ability to append
