Hi All,

I have tried with below code, according to the Slide #24 of document "JavaScript Expert webinar slides", to suspend the current execution for a larger time in Web Client but, It didn't worked. Can any one please, help me on the same?

Code: Select all

// call to the Show form in Dialog
application.showFormInDialog(forms[formName], -1, -1, -1, -1, title);

// suspend the current execution
globals.cont = new Continuation();
new Packages.org.mozilla.javascript.continuations.Continuation()();
globals.cont();

// Do some other processing


Thanks

Does anyone having any sample code snippet for the same?? Please, share, if anyone have any or any thought on the same.

Thanks,

If you want to know more about Continuations, have a look here: http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/RhinoWithContinuations

It's been a while since I looked at Continuations and everytime I look at them again, I need to think hard to understand exactly how they work, but looking at your example, I think the following is off:

Code: Select all

1: globals.cont = new Continuation();
2: new Packages.org.mozilla.javascript.continuations.Continuation()();
3: globals.cont();


Line 1 captures the state of the exection stack into the globals variable cont.
Line 2 stops the execution of the current (stack of) method(s)
Line 3: because line 2 stopped the execution of the current (stack of) method(s), this line will not get executed.

Usually, line 1 & 2 go together in a method and line 3 is used to resume the execution of the execution stack captured in the global variable cont
