Folks,
I have the following problem: My application must support different geographical regions. A logged-in user is assigned a region. This uses info is stored in Session. My EOs have business logic that must act region specific. How can I let the EOs know about the current region (from session().currentUser().region() )? The business logic is in its own framework and knows nothing about sessions (which is how it supposed to be). Would ERXThreadStorage be of any help here?
Example of what I need: Entity Product has a region specific product description. So simple accessors "description()" and "setDescription(String text)" are not good enough. The logic inside these accessors MUST take the current user's region into account.
I used to have my own editing context class with a session instance variable. This worked before because I had the business logic and all the controller code in the same project. Now with the separation into different projects this does not work anymore (which is actually quite ok, I know it was a kludge before).
Thanks for any help ---markus--- |
