Hi,

Before to explain the problem, below the configuration:

ReviewBoard version: 1.7.6
Django version: 1.4.5
Djblets version: 0.7.11
Apache used
Memcache used (version 1.48, python lib)

I developed some extensions for Reviewboard which are using TemplateHook 
and UrlHook, to add some HTML code on existing Reviewboard web pages.

When i installed and enabled these extensions through administration web 
page, and users use the Reviewboard, some errors as below have been 
notified:
(even after restarting apache, memcache, and users have refresh their web 
browser).

I tried to find the problem and it seems to come from a cache issue.
As i understood (please tell me if i well understood or not), for each HTTP 
request, the Djblet middleware (located in middleware.py file) checks if 
the extension manager is expired (_check_expired() method).

In *djblets/extensions/middleware.py* file:









*class ExtensionsMiddleware(object):...    def process_request(self, 
request):        self._check_expired()    def 
_check_expired(self):...        for extension_manager in 
get_extension_managers():            if 
extension_manager.is_expired():                
extension_manager.load(full_reload=True)*

In *djblets/extensions/base.py* file:







*class ExtensionManager(object):...    def is_expired(self):        
sync_gen = cache.get(self._sync_key)               return (sync_gen is None 
or                (type(sync_gen) is int and sync_gen != 
self._last_sync_gen))*
If is *_expired()* returns True, all extensions are reloaded 
(extension_manager.load(full_reload=True) in _check_expired() method.
And the problem seems to come during this reloading (see above error 
messages).

So, is it possible to not execute the* 
extension_manager.load(full_reload=True)* method after each HTTP Request ?
As to keep all the time the *_last_sync_gen* key of the extension manager 
in the cache.

I don't understand why you need to put the key in cache, because when the 
extension is disabled or enabled, or when one of the parameter of the 
extension is changed, the key is updated.

I noticed that only one key is generated and cached for all extensions 
(which are in the same extension manager).
When the *_check_expired*() returns True, ALL extensions will be reloaded.
So, if an another user of ReviewBoard at the same time is trying to display 
a web page where the extension is used, is it not a problem ?
Because perhaps the extension is not yet full reloaded, which can create 
perhaps the above errors.

Or is it an issue how i wrote the extensions ?
Below one of the extension i created:
















*class MetricsExtension(Extension):...    is_configurable = True    
has_admin_site = True...    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):        
super(MetricsExtension, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)        
URLHook(self, patterns('',                (r'^rbmetrics/', 
include('rbmetrics.urls'))))        TemplateHook(self, 
"base-scripts-post",                
"rbmetrics/metrics_init.html",                
apply_to=['view_diff',                          'review-request-detail'])*

Hope you understand my problem, because not very easy to explain and my 
english is so poor ... ;-)

Vincent G.
