2 pages, 2 conversations

[cinconnu]

Hi,
Maybe it is a totally idiot question but...
I'd like to have two tabs (two xhtml pages), each one having its own long running conversation. Because I want to be able to timeout one tab for memory consumption matters. But the user can switch between tabs and get its conversation back while it has not timed out.
I tried many things today, including natural conversations, but i really cannot get any result...

Here is what i tried last:

    <page view-id="/test/tab1.xhtml" login-required="false" conversation="conv1">
        <description>TAB 1: #{convId1}</description>
        
        <navigation from-action="#{test1.doSomething()}" />
        
        <navigation from-action="#{test2.tab2()}">
          <begin-conversation join="true" />
          <redirect view-id="/test/tab2.xhtml"/>
        </navigation>
    </page>
    <page view-id="/test/tab2.xhtml" login-required="false" conversation="conv2">
        <description>TAB 2: #{convId2}</description>
        
        <navigation from-action="#{test2.doSomething()}" />
        
        <navigation from-action="#{test1.tab1()}">
          <begin-conversation join="true" />
          <redirect view-id="/test/tab1.xhtml"/>
        </navigation>
    </page>

and tab1.xhtml for example:

<s:link action="#{test2.tab2()}" value="tab 2" conversationName="conv2" />

thanks

Seems like that was an idiot question... I found something but it is not working since the conversation is the same

tab1.xhtml:

<s:link action="#{test2.goto2()}" value="tab 2" />
<h:outputText value="#{manager.instance().getCurrentConversationId()}" />
<h:outputText value="#{manager.instance().getCurrentConversationDescription()}" />

tab2.xhtml:

<s:link action="#{test1.goto1()}" value="tab 1" />
<h:outputText value="#{manager.instance().getCurrentConversationId()}" />
<h:outputText value="#{manager.instance().getCurrentConversationDescription()}" />

pages.xml:

    <conversation name="ctab1" parameter-name="c1" parameter-value="1" />
    <conversation name="ctab2" parameter-name="c2" parameter-value="2" />

    <page view-id="/home.xhtml">
        <navigation from-action="#{test1.goto1()}">
            <begin-conversation join="true" conversation="ctab1" />
            <redirect view-id="/conv/tab1.xhtml" />
        </navigation>
    </page>

    <page view-id="/conv/tab1.xhtml" conversation="ctab1">
        <description>Tab 1</description>
        <navigation from-action="#{test2.goto2()}">
            <begin-conversation join="true" conversation="ctab2" />
            <redirect view-id="/conv/tab2.xhtml" />
        </navigation>
    </page>

    <page view-id="/conv/tab2.xhtml" conversation="ctab2">
        <description>Tab 2</description>
        <navigation from-action="#{test1.goto1()}">
            <begin-conversation join="true" conversation="ctab2" />
            <redirect view-id="/conv/tab1.xhtml" />
        </navigation>
    </page>

Test1.java:

@Name("test1")
@Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)
public class Test1
{
    public void goto1()
    {
        System.out.println("------ Test1.goto1: " + this + "/" + Conversation.instance());

        ConversationEntry entry = ConversationEntries.instance().getConversationEntry("ctab1:1");
        System.out.println("ctab1:1 = " + entry);

        if (entry != null)
        {
            System.out.println("selecting ctab1:1");
            entry.select();
        }
    }
}

Test2.java:

@Name("test2")
@Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)
public class Test2
{
    public void goto2()
    {
        System.out.println("------ Test2.goto2: " + this + "/" + Conversation.instance());

        ConversationEntry entry = ConversationEntries.instance().getConversationEntry("ctab2:2");
        System.out.println("ctab2:2 = " + entry);

        if (entry != null)
        {
            System.out.println("selecting ctab2:2");
            entry.select();
        }
    }
}

on tab1, i got:

1. cID:ctab1:1


2. cDesc:Tab 1

and on tab2:

1. cID:ctab2:2


2. cDesc:Tab 2

but

ConversationEntries.instance().getConversationEntry("ctab1:1")

and

ConversationEntries.instance().getConversationEntry("ctab2:2")

return both the same entry...

How to have 2 different conversations ???
Thanks

Well i finally found some way to make it work...

Add propagation=none on the link:

<s:link action="#{test2.goto2()}" value="tab 2" propagation="none"/>

put a begin-conversation in the navigation rule and without join=true:

<page view-id="/conv/tab1.xhtml" conversation="ctab1">
    <description>Tab 1</description>
    <navigation from-action="#{test2.goto2()}">
        <begin-conversation  />
        <redirect view-id="/conv/tab2.xhtml" />
    </navigation>
</page>

so it works... until now...

now has arrived. in fact the conversation is the same but the bean is destroyed and recreated each time.
