Re: Stuck on long response page... IE

is the ajax variety pretty much a drop in replacement for the old hat one ?
what about locking issues ? ERXWOLongResponsePage does some funky stuff
around ec locking - i guess with the ajax variety you're on your own ?

Re: Stuck on long response page... IE

2010-05-18 Thread Kieran Kelleher
While I use autolocking ECs in R-R logic, I never use autolocking ECs in any of 
my background tasks, just manual-locking ECs and plain old 
ec.lock/try/finally/ec.unlock - so always on my own there ;-) I only pass 
EOGlobalIDs to background tasks - so I don't have locking issues. I create all 
tasks as simple Callables (if I want to return a result) or Runnables (no 
result) and I use the java.util.concurrent Executor stuff for thread execution.

JavaScript is the only solution that I can think of.
