Re: [mcclim-devel] Push or Pull data in application

Hello,

----- "Oliver Uvman" oliver.uvman@gmail.com a écrit :

The problem I know I will eventually run into is updating the Clim interface when changes to data have been made through manual interaction with the backend. The solutions are either push or pull based, I guess. Push based is not really prefered, because the backend would have to keep track of the gui so it can send messages to it.

[Disclaimer: I don't remember much about GUIs and CLIM...]

Couldn't you define, as part of your GUI code, and for every "relevant" backend method that updates the application data, an :after method that updates or refreshes the interface contents?

Cheers,
