Temporary disable URL changes when using Places?

2011-05-10 Thread Jens 
Hi,

Is it somehow possible to disable URL changes when switching between places 
so that the browsers back/forward buttons keep disabled?

I asks this because I have an app that does not use Places/Activities yet 
but I now have a use case where an anchor/link has to change its url 
according to where you are in the app (basically its a show help link). 
So I thought I could use the Places Framework to define Places and have them 
stored the information needed to generate the correct link url. 

But I do not want to change the actual UI based on the place. So for now no 
app rewrite to use Activities/ActivityMapper etc. But because I do not want 
to change the UI based on the Place, each time the the user switches between 
places the browsers back/forward buttons will be active and a user could 
change the generated link url by clicking the back/forward button (because 
the UI stays the same the link url can become wrong based on what the user 
sees).

So can I somehow deactivate the change of place history tokens in the 
browser's location bar? 

Of course I could create my own event and send it to through the eventbus 
but as I want to use Activities in the future I thought it would be nice to 
integrate Places now and add the Activities stuff later.

You have to put in your PlaceHistoryMapper only the places that want to 
handle with the history handler.

PlaceHistoryMapper is the link between your PlaceTokenizers and GWT's 
PlaceHistoryHandler that synchronizes the browser URL with each Place.

Hehe thanks. Works so far. Guess it was a bit to obvious so I missed that :)
