Scary, scary thing: browser cache + Ajax4JSF???

[przemjaskier]

Hi, I've just noticed an answer for this thread and I'm curious how do you perceive this problem in general.
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=112124
...suggesting cleaning browser cache as a solution for a specific error.
Ok, as a developer I can do it after A4J update that requires it. But after going into production environment and when in the future there will be a need for such update after a huge amount of users got it cached...?
Don't you feel scared by this? Suggesting reload in this situation can be often a no-go (uneducated users, perceived system credibility etc.). Another question is how to make user to reload his cache (special error page for ResourceNotFoundException, suggesting cache reload?).
Is there something I'm not aware of?

First, this is a Ajax4JSF issue.

You can see in the following link my intents to try A4J guys take this into account, but it seems I'm one in a million, and they don't care about this.

Maybe if there are more people caring about this they can hear our suggestions or may be propose a better one.

Fernando, your suggestions in that topic should be definitely taken into account... After analyzing this further I find this issue as critical :(. I encourage
others to think about it, because someone can have a lot of troubles someday.
FYI: I posted on the a4jsf forum:
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4058792#4058792

Let's see the outcome... It would be a pity, because I like Richfaces/Ajax4JSF very much.

Ok, thanks.

I also encourage people of this forum who is using Ajax4JSF to make a crowd and help to improve this small but critical issue for production systems.


Thanks.
