Re: [jira] Created: (SHINDIG-313) made GadgetRenderingTask subclassable

[John Hjelmstad <fa...@google.com>]

Hi Adam:

Can you tell me a little more about your desire to support html-inline?
Until now we've explicitly chosen not to support them since by definition
they aren't portable: an inlined gadget (that actually interacts with the
surrounding DOM rather than using gadgets.rpc-mitigated APIs) is explicitly
tied to a single container.

That works directly against a key promise of gadgets, to be Write Once Run
Anywhere For The Web (tm).

Even when using gadgets as an application extension mechanism for a specific
site, inlining places significant restrictions on the container.

Sorry to subject you to an inquisition :)

                URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-313
            Project: Shindig
         Issue Type: Improvement
         Components: Gadget Rendering Server (Java)
           Reporter: Adam Wight
           Priority: Minor


Making private members of GadgetRenderingTask "protected" allows us to reuse
this code to create new rendering servlets.  In particular, we have written
an "html-inline" servlet to substitute for the deprecated html-inline
Content type.  Inline rendering for trusted gadgets enables full interaction
with the DOM.
