Re: How to manage state / session for different windows/tabs

Hi guys, I have the following task. I'm building a simple calculation page, but for sake of simplicity lets say I'm doing the adding link sample we all know.

 

I might need to be able to open two browsers or tabs to be able to do parallel calculations and compare both results. Lets say click 3 times on the link and have 3 on one window/tab and click 4 times in the other one and have 4, instead of 7 which is the default behavior.

 

 

Know this point its kind of arguable, so I need to find ways to both doit and may be recommend against it as it may not be a good practice.

 

To put this in a concrete question:

 

Is it possible to handle each instance of a browser (Being this a window, either a new tab or new window, or even a new process)  like a new session instance?

 

To do a little test I built a small application with only a home page that prints out a UUID randomly generated in my MyWicketSession. Very simple code, in the session constructor:

 

this.UUID=uuid = UUID.randomUUID().toString();

 

and in the Home page

 

info(getMyWicketSession().getUUID());

 

This generates the same value when I hit a new tab and enter the URL or when I ask the browser for a new Window.

 

This must be the correct behavior and I have nothing against it, but can I have independent state management. I don't want to go sessionless.

 

 

Best regards,

f(t)
