Hi I must confess to being a bit confused as to when I should be locking resources. If I'm sub-classing FormResource to get a form with several cards, do I need to lock the cards ? If I refer to other resources from those cards, do I need to lock those resources ? If my FormResource-like class implmements ResourceStoreHolder, do I need to lock resources which might be stored/retrievable in the associated resource store ? (ie. if my formCard uses a resource which can be pickled/unpickled from my resource store do I need to lock it or can I just assume that it will be put away and retrieved appropriately ? ) As a semi-connected aside, how long do FormResources hang around ? (and their cards ?) Also, I notice that the editors create a new instance for each resource edited - do I need to have a resource per user for my IndexplusResource form thing ? Any advice gratefully received Thanks Joel -- Joel.Crisp@bris.ac.uk | ets-webmaster@bris.ac.uk | "I remember Babylon" - Software Engineer, Institute of Learning and | Arthur C Clarke Research Technology, University of Bristol, UK | http://www.ets.bris.ac.uk/ |
