Re: authentication framework and continuations

[Jorg Heymans]

did you change *all* your forms to have the <ft:continuation-id /> ?

Hi,
The culprit appears to be the 

form.showForm(ArrayAdmin); 
line

It seems to loop *continously* on this line when I
match on 

 <map:match type="request-parameter"
 pattern="continuation-id">
    <map:call continuation="{1}"/>
 </map:match>
However, it does not loop if I use
<map:match pattern="*.continue">
    <map:call continuation="{1}"/>
 </map:match>
though in the latter case I loose authentication
capability.
Is there any way around this? Use authentication,
continuations and form.showForm together?
thx!

Getting there, but not quite there yet...am getting
into a "loop" situation with the hidden
continuation.
When I use the continuation as a hidden field in my
form template as shown below:
<ft:form-template action="" method="POST">
<ft:continuation-id/>
and with my sitemap as below:
<map:match pattern="*">
   <map:act type="auth-protect">
   <map:parameter name="handler"
value="simpleauthenticator"/>
<map:match type="request-parameter"
pattern="continuation-id">
  <map:call continuation="{1}"/>
</map:match>
<map:match pattern="arrayadmin-display-pipeline">
 <map:generate src="arrayadmin_template.xml"/>
 <map:transform type="forms"/>
 <map:transform
src="context://resources/resources/forms-arrayadmin-styling.xsl"/>
 <map:serialize/>
</map:match>
<map:match pattern="arrayAdmin">
 <map:call function="arrayAdmin">
 <map:parameter name="bindingURI"
value="arrayadmin_bind.xml"/> 
 </map:call>
</map:match>

</map:act>
</map:match>
it seems to go into a loop, till something times out
at which point, it shows a blank page (any changed
data *is* saved)...
any ideas?
My script is as follows and I suspect that the last
line in it keeps causing it to loop. What should the
last line be like to show the form again with the
new
(saved) values?
function arrayAdmin() {
   var bindingURI =
cocoon.parameters["bindingURI"];
   var form = new Form("arrayadmin.xml");
   var model = form.getModel();
   form.createBinding("arrayadmin_bind.xml"); 
   var beanClass = new

Packages.org.apache.cocoon.ojb.samples.bean.ArrayAdmin();
   var bean  = dao.getObject(beanClass,"id",0);
   form.load(bean);
  form.showForm("arrayadmin-display-pipeline",
selectListData);
    
   // Let Cocoon Forms handle the form
  if(form.submitId == "save") {
  	form.save(bean);
       dao.setObject(bean);
	form.showForm("arrayAdmin"); //this same function
  }
     cocoon.releaseComponent(factory);
}

I susepct the form.showForm("arrayAdmin") is causing
it to loop, but strangely this used to work when the
sitemap was unprotected and I was using the explicit
continuation i.e. no hidden ft:continuation-id in
template and using an explicit *.continuation match
in
the sitemap.
TIA!

you would just do
<ft:form-template action="" method="POST">
<ft:continuation-id/>
<ft:widget id ="mywidget"/>
......
</ft:form>

Jorg,
thank you very much.
I will try this approach - just wasn't sure how
to
use
the <ft:continuation-id> tag in my template.
Do I simpley do this anywhere reasonable in the
template:
<ft:continuation-id><fi:styling
type="hidden"/></ft:continuation-id>
-hopefully, this will be my last question, sorry
for
the bother and thanks for the help so far.

1. So for this to work there is no need to use
encodeURL? I was under the impression that
encodeURL

was needed as the auth framework created a
session
behind the scenes.
If the browser doesn't support cookies then the
webapplication should 
rewrite or encode all URL's in the page to
attach
the sessionID to it. 
If your browser allows cookies then there is no
need
for this. The 
auth-framework or cocoon itself creates the
session
transparently.

2. How are you matching the *.continue i.e.
If I use
<map:match type="request-parameter"
pattern="continuation-id"> instead of 

<map:match pattern="*.continue">
I get the following msg.
org.apache.cocoon.ResourceNotFoundException: No
pipeline matched request:

webtask/array/3b3639336a20303b2b63112f7046410573643157.continue
This is because this matcher uses the hidden
input
field i told you 
about earlier. Put <ft:continuation-id> in your
form-template. You are 
seeing this error probably because your form
action
has still the 
continuation construct in it. Just set your form
action to "".

<map:match type="request-parameter"
pattern="continuation-id"> works 
just like a normal pipeline match, but acts on a
requestparameter 
instead of an URL path.

Jorg
