Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to demo login package

Collapse
Posted by Stephen . on
Developer Support doesn't work because it is packaged as an add-on. It requires extensive support from the request processor to work at all so there's no real utility having the interface in a seperate package.

The disadvantage is that no one is aware of the user switching functionality (it overides core procs, breaking the doumentaed behaviour...) so when things change, it breaks.

The reason I mention it is because your package is so useful, adds no overhead, and is unlikely to have many implementations, that I think it would be a shame to have a second seperate package to implement what really is core ACS functionality.
