Damian Harvey commented on JBSEAM-2656:
---------------------------------------

Ok. I'll give it a go if I have some time this weekend.

Is a suitable solution: 
1. A new table WIKI_COMMENT_WATCHER with a foreign key to USERS
2. A method in ReplyHome notifyWatchers() that observes "Comment.persisted" and queries WikiCommentWatcher to create a List<User> of commentWatcherUsers. 
3. A new mailtemplate copied from forumNotifyReplies.xhtml but with a <ui:repeat> and <m:bcc> to each entry in the #{replyHome.commentWatcherUsers} and of course some different text.
4. A boolean on ReplyHome called "watchComment" 
5. An h:selectBooleanCheckbox in replyForm.xhtml underneath the replyHome.persist link
6. Override persist() in ReplyHome and after the super.persist() save the Comment and User to the WikiCommentWatcher table.

Obviously this only covers replies to forum posts and not watch Wiki pages (which would be the ultimate goal?). Is it roughly there?

Cheers,

Damian
