<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:72.0pt">Hi,<br><br>I'm just reading all these emails properly just now and I agree that something has to be done to protect scope. Fay has done a great job creating xenith and all these models and it's the quality of the codebase, how well the whole thing works and meeting all you guys that has made me want to get involved so heavily. But now i'm begining to see areas which could cause problems with scope. Especially now that I've created a few models that use JSONP requests. These work by Padding JSON objects inside a callback function and loading it straight into a <script> tag in the <head>, so all in global scope, as do all the model declarations...<br>
<br>But while each of the different ways you guys have mentioned of achieving this has their merits, I would definitely recommend that we consider the Yahoo JavaScript Module Pattern. This is used by many experienced JavaScript programmers and gives us private and public variables and methods. I would definitely recommend that any interested in developing the xenith code read a GREAT article about it here <a href="http://www.adequatelygood.com/2010/3/JavaScript-Module-Pattern-In-Depth" target="_blank">http://www.adequatelygood.com/2010/3/JavaScript-Module-Pattern-In-Depth</a><br>
<br>I think in for Xenith, this module pattern will allow us to do some great things:<br><br>Protect xenith variables and methods<br>Augmentation (Loose or Tight) to split up Xenith for manageability<br>Sub-modules - this is where I see the page models sitting<br>
<br>So we'll have something like<br><br>var XENITH = (function (my) {<br> // code and stuff here<br>}(XENITH));<br><br>Then the models are added like this<br><br>XENITH.summary = (function () {<br><br>}());<br>
<br>XENITH.table = (function () {<br><br>}());<br><br>XENITH.rss = (function () {<br><br>}());<br><br>etc.<br><br>Obviously it will be a lot of work to port Fay's code over and to be perfectly honest with you i've only used this a few times and NEVER on a project of this scale this but I definitely think it will benefit the project to do this early on because as more models are added and multiple pages of the same type are added to projects I anticipate there being conflicts that we might struggle to work around.<br>

I changed it so that all the main elements, variables, functions etc. that we don't want to be messed around with on accident by naming something the same in a page model now begin with 'x_'. It looks like you've used this version in making these models so hopefully it didn't affect you too much.

From talking to Johnathan who wrote the original Flash versions they all have some common functions in them (e.g. functions that find the page with the correct page id). As the same code will be used in several page models then the best place for this is probably the xenith.js file so we're not repeating the same code in multiple page model files. I'm happy for you to add anything in there that's needed.<br>

>>>>> To: For Xerte technical developers<br>>>>>> Subject: [Xerte-dev] 1.9 properties<br>>>>>><br>>>>>> Hello,<br>>>>>><br>>>>>> On the properties panel there are several options which are sort<br>
>>>>> of xerte specific - XML and media and quota for example.<br>>>>>><br>>>>>> Some of the new templates aren't XML, so XML makes no sense - and<br>>>>>> the media and quota code is very xerte specific.<br>
>>>>><br>>>>>> Would people think<br>>>>>><br>>>>>> 1) all off these options should exist for all templates?<br>>>>>> 2) should tabs exist even if the functionality doesn't?<br>
>>>>> 3) what sort of message should it say<br>>>>>> 4) what if I have scope for an extra tab?<br>>>>>> _______________________________________________<br>>>>>> Xerte-dev mailing list<br>
