Hi,
Your "idle" flag -- which you seem to use to mean "busy processing a
request", which I found *really* confusing at first :-) -- is getting
cleared inappropriately whenever you pull something from your queue. I
don't know that that's the problem, but it's probably wrong. The error
is in your onComplete function:
if (this.queue.size() > 0) {
console.log("queue-size > 0, so enqueue next item");
this.push("queued: " + this.queue.shift());
}
this.idle = false; // <=== Error if `if` above was true
If there's something in the queue, you call `push`, which sets the
flag, starts a new async request, and returns. But then you clear the
flag, so the next time `add` gets called, it'll think it should call
`push` rather than `queue.push` even though there's an outstanding
request.
If you just move the `this.idle = false;` line above the `if`
statement, it should sort out this issue. Whether it solves the
problems you described I can't say, but I suspect it'll solve at least
some of them.
HTH,
