No, you're actually right... I just realized I made an awful signature with two functions in a row and I'm puzzled John didn't notice it yet... quick quick, to refactor it :P
The main problem I have with optionsFilter and the way it works is that I still need a main function to select the correct transport. I thought about associating a transport to one or more dataTypes but the thing is you have priority issues (for instance you have to specify which transport has the priority for jsonp between the script tag hack and the xhr ones). As it is now, there is too much logic into the filters and the way they redirect to other transports. With the goal of making the installation of a new transport as painless as possible, I'm thinking about some override possibility in addition to a pure install and maybe three functions (one to confirm the transport is the correct one to use, one to pre-treat options and the factory). As for the priority issue, I'm thinking about it but I'm wondering if there wouldn't be something similar in another open-source project, no matter the field of application and/or language: what architecture is more suited to select the correct agent given a type and how do you handle priority so that overriding your agents is easy? 2009/12/2 Scott Sauyet <scott.sau...@gmail.com> > On Tue, Dec 1, 2009 at 8:21 PM, Julian Aubourg <aubourg.jul...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > Anyway, the code has been comitted at http://github.com/jaubourg/jquery > > Just started looking at this, and it makes a great deal of sense to > me.
