[jira] [Commented] (WICKET-5588) Wicket.Ajax.process() function does not use channels

["Martin Grigorov (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-5588?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13994237#comment-13994237 ] 

Martin Grigorov commented on WICKET-5588:
-----------------------------------------

The suggested impl is OKish.
The only thing that I miss is a way to specify the channel name and type programmatically from the Java code. Maybe they can be passed with the options at org.apache.wicket.atmosphere.AtmosphereBehavior#renderHead() ?!

> As far as I know in Wicket ajax calls by default using the same channel and they are queued. But in wicket-atmosphere integration on the client side the refreshing is done by calling (inside wicket-atomosphere.js):
>   Wicket.Ajax.process(response.responseBody);
> It looks like Wicket.Ajax.process() function does not use channels management, so it can result in out-of-order response processing. This method was added to support Atmosphere push calls in Wicket. See the commit (for issue: WICKET-4668):
> https://github.com/apache/wicket/commit/130b063722e55510f2b2a3b47889e14210a5a32f
> *Example scenario to reproduce this problem:*
> When we try to refresh a component (panelA) via ajax when two different threads in the "same" time perform such refresh.
> 1. The first thread (thread1) is a standard servlet container thread to handle user request from a browser:
> - user clicks AjaxLink and on onClick method panelA is refreshed by target.add(panelA).
> 2. The second thread (thread2) is a notification from a backend system which causes a panelA refreshing too:
> - it can be done for eg. using Atmosphere integration by EventBus.post() - panelA is refreshed by target.add(panelA) too.
> On the server side only one thread can access a page at a time so everything is "queued" properly: the thread1 panelA refresh is executed, then the thread2 refresh code is fired.
> But it looks like on the client side the order of ajax calls is undefined: sometimes JS code added from the thread1 is executed as first, sometimes as a second one. On my computer this order almost always is wrong. It leads to an incorrect situation when the component state on a server is different than the DOM tree on the client browser (so for example user can clicks not existing link).
