If you are trying to apply MVC here you're failing. You should not be calling pages/displayHome.xsp but some displayHome flowscript function.

The flowscript function prepares the bean and does cocoon.sendPage( "pages/displayHome" ) which is matched to:

It means:

1. you invoke the controller
2. the controller performs business logic and prepares data for view
3. with cocoon.sendPage you call your view

In your case it is all pretty mixed up.




So how would you fix it, assuming we wanted to aggregate different pieces into one page? Those peaces are used elsewhere in the program. Your comments weren't particularly helpful to either point to the specifics of how to expect flowscript to work or how to correct the code as it is.

Seon's on my team, so I have a vested interest in getting this issue resolved.

let me see:

function login() {
    setupMyFoo();
    home();
}

function home() {
    var foo = accessTheFoo();
    cocoon.sendPage( "displayHome", { bean: foo } );
}

and now the sitemap:
<map:match pattern="displayHome">
    <map:aggregate element="page">
        <map:part src="cocoon:/header.xsp"/>
        <map:part src="cocoon:/showBean"/>
        <map:part src="cocoon:/footer.xsp"/>
    </map:aggregate>
</map:match>

<map:match pattern="showBean">
    <map:generate src="bean.jx" type="jx"/>
    <map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:match>

<map:match pattern="login">
    <map:call function="login"/>
</map:match>

<map:match pattern="home">
    <map:call function="home"/>
</map:match>

Sorry if I sounded rude at first.

If you need it you can make your flowscript call login only when needed:

function main() {
        cocoon.response.setHeader( "Expires", "-1" );
        cocoon.response.setHeader( "Cache-Control", "no-cache" );
        cocoon.response.setHeader( "Pragma", "no-cache" );

        var action = cocoon.parameters["action"];
        if ( springContext == null )
                setupSpringContext();
        if ( cocoon.session.user == null ) {
                loginInternal();
        }
        invoke( action );
}

function invoke( action ) {
    var func = this[ action ];
    if ( func != undefined )
            func.apply( this );
        else
                cocoon.sendPage( action, {} );
}

the sitemap:
<map:match pattern="*.do">
        <map:match type="request-parameter" pattern="continuation-id">
                <map:call resource="resume-continuation">
                        <map:parameter name="continuation-id"                                
      value="{1}"/>
                </map:call>
        </map:match>
        <map:call function="main">
                <map:parameter name="action" value="{1}"/>
        </map:call>
</map:match>

this way you can just call

http://localhost:8888/home.do

and the "main" function will be called which will detect if user is logged in. If not login screen is shown first and later the home() function is being run (with func.apply() ).

It's a poor's man intercepted flow.
