VA8 Seaside - call:, answer:, call: blowup

[waynej]

I know VA 8 is a beta containing an alpha release of Seaside, but is Seaside supposed to be useful in this release? I can't get a second call: to work after a first call: answer:'s. I get a walkback at the point of the second call: saying 'attempt to return twice from method'. A simple example can be seen using the confirm: convenience method:

self confirm: 'Click something, I don''t care what'.
self confirm: 'Again'.

Wayne,

call:answer: doesn't work because continuations aren't supported yet.

Seaside is still very usable without continuations. Your options include:

continuation passing style with #show:onAnswer:
AJAX using Scriptaculous or jQuery (available here: http://www.a3aan.st/sunrise/jquery+ported+to+va+smalltalk)

Hope this helps,
Adriaan.

Thanks.

Is there a schedule for further Seaside implementation - and upcoming VA 8 releases?
