This flow-continuations stuff is so new that too few people have it clear
enough to advise about the correct way to do what you requested.
Currently, flow-continuations is still being defined. No one is trying to
show if someone is bad or good coder. Everybody just try to give a tip
that can help. Nothing more or less. Your idea to go to dev is good.
Of course! Thanks. I responded too quickly the first time, so I'm sure it
sounded bad.

Antonio,
But how do you make a recursive call within the xmlform
functionality?
Do
you call it within the javascript or from a page to the desired
pipeline?
I'm an extreme newbie here, but:
You do it the same as you would with any programming language:
var continueRecursing = true;
function foo() {
if (continueRecursing) {
sendPageAndWait(...);
foo();
}
}
Or, if you're using jxforms (flow enabled xmlforms), then you'll
use sendForm() instead of sendPageAndWait().
Hope that helps a bit.

Hello all,
I've got kind of a hair-brained question here, forgive me if
it is
not
completely clear. I'm having a hard time thinking of how to
create
a
flow and forms for editing a complex, highly nested, and
even recursively defined bean.
Let's say I have a bean class A with property of class B. B
also
has an
optional property of type B.
My best thinking is that when I come to those items in the
xmlform,
I
will display a link to another flow, so that a sub-form is
navigated
to. Cramming everything into one form is, of course, not a
very
good
option. Anyway, the theoretical solution presents me with
two
problems:
1. Could the new form and continuation be passed the old
continuation,
and access objects from the old flow?
I am not sure, but maybe a recursion of the same function
would work
here.
Please comments.
2. Could the new flow return to continue the old
continuation once
it
was done?
See above.
I might possibly go as much as two or three continuations
deeps.
If the recursion can work here, the answer is yes. :)
Remember that each is pretty much an XMLForm wizard
implementation,
so
I'm not writing any other low-level flow code except that to
control
the
form wizard much like in the xmlform samples.
I haven't looked into woody that much yet, so if I'm missing
something
easier there, let me know. If anybody has any good pointers
or
general
suggestions I would appreciate it! Surely someone else has
had to
deel
with beans that weren't skin-deep and contained further
complex
types.
