ZoneUpdater is Great
Hi all,
I just wanted to take a moment and shine some light onto the "ZoneUpdater"
mixin which appears to have been originally authored by Inge Solvoll.
For those which are not familiar with it (it took some digging for me to
find it), it is a mixin which will allow one to have an AJAX update occur
for a given Zone, on a specified component event with appropriate handler.
Quite useful.
See the blog post by Inge:
http://tinybits.blogspot.com/2009/05/update-zone-on-any-client-side-event.html
apparently there is an open JIRA issue related to the implementation:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-521
For those Tapestry developers out there who are listening, this is such a
useful and basic mixin that I would suggest it be incorporated into the
Tapestry codebase. If not that, then it should at least be mentioned in the
wiki or on the related projects page... something.
Wherever you are Inge, thanks for sharing this very useful mixin with this
community.
Cheers,
Levi

Hi!
That will probably require some work figuring out how the T5 javascript
handles multiple zones. If I run into a situation where I need this, I will
post updated code to the blog. Until then, anyone is welcome to suggest a
solution :)
I'm guessing it's not too hard, just requires some javascript reading skills
to understand the T5 internal javascript.
Again, it would be really nice with a nice and clean built-in javascript API
for custom zone tricks on the client side!

Inge, I've recently noticed that this does not seem to work with the
MultiZoneUpdate return type (it just updates the first zone specified).
Any hope of an updated version which would support this?
See the section on Multiple Zone Updates at:
http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/guide/ajax.html
Cheers,
Levi

Re: ZoneUpdater is Great

Thanks for the very nice feedback, Levi! :)
First of all, I must mention that this is a generalization/reworking of
concepts created by equanda, I hope the equanda guys are ok with it being
published like this.
I strongly agree with you that the concept demonstrated in this mixin should
be integrated into the framework, hence the JIRA issue. There will still be
a need for the mixin, but the code required to trigger the zone, optionally
with a parameter value provided by the client, should be standardized in
some way, making the mixin code a lot simpler and more focused. I haven't
seen too many requests for this kind of thing lately, though, so I'm not
sure if the committers will pick it up.
You should vote for the JIRA!
