Question on detachable models:
You use detachable models in the contact edit page. It seems like
this would cause your changes to be lost if the edit process takes
more than one request to complete.
If you use the no-arg constructor, the loadableDetachableModel
creates a new contact at the beginning of every request. If you
enter a name that's too long, a validation message is displayed. Then
the detach() is called on the model, and a new Contact is loaded on
the next request, erasing your temporary changes.
I may well be misunderstanding something, I'm fairly new to this
stuff. It seems that for edit pages you want a non-detachable model,
which gets serialized to the session.
Thanks for taking the time to write this article, and thanks in
advance for any clarification on this topic.
