Re: Page Cleanup Tasks
The visit pattern certainly isn't deprecated, it just evolved. Instead
of having a single visit object to store everything, you define your own
application state objects. It's a vast improvement because you can
separate each functional area of your application into its own ASO with
whatever API it needs. I often find myself creating an ASO called
"visit" for some general purpose usage, but using other ASOs as well.
Anyway, I was assuming you were storing your state with each individual
page using @Persist annotations rather than stashing it all in an ASO.
If state is local to a certain page, it belongs in that page. If it's
shared between pages, then use the ASO.
If you're just looking for a way to simplify the check, I'd create a
marker interface to denote stateful pages and have your check be for
event.getRequestCycle().getPage() instanceof StatefulPage. That way
you're not hardcoding lists. You should only need to do this on rewind
OR render, depending on whether you're checking against the requesting
or responding page.

Thanks Steve.
I'll investigate using that perhaps instead of storing it in the visit object.
Incidentally, I haven't had any comments as to whether the visit pattern is no
longer the best practice with version 4.1.1 upwards... I'd be grateful to hear
people's views. I think the reason I'm not clear is because I don't know the
reasoning behind the getVisit() method being deprecated - so I wrote my own
that kind of does the same thing - getTheVisit().
Currently, my solution is to have my BasePage (which extends the Tapestry
BasePage) implement PageBeginRender, it then checks the page being opened to
see if it is one of my 2 for which I want state to be kept, and if it isn't, it
clears the state out of my visit object - which is where i moved the state to
since it is easier to get to there.
If anyone has a tidier solution - because I think that this method has to be
about the most inefficient (forcing a check of the page 2x per requestCycle for
every page in the application), I would be very grateful to hear it.
Thanks

I'm not sure where you'd call it from, but
IRequestCycle.forgetPage(String) will cause it to dump any state
connected to a given page.

hi,
I am storing a list of items in the session using @Persist("session") and that
is working well, however I would like to remove that list from the session if that area
of my application is left by the user. Is it possible to establish via the
PageDetachListener or some other method which page the user has decided to jump to from
my menu, and dependant on that page, clear / keep my session variable?
Many thanks
