I want to create a generic utility method to check whether a user is logged in, and redirect them to a login page if necessary. To do this, I need to create an ICallback in the general case. In other words, I don't know whether I'm create an ExternalCallback or a PageCallback or a DirectCallback or what have you. I just want to create a callback for whatever the current request is, if such a callback is possible.
This is funny, I just hit the same issue and have been frustrated myself with the ICallback. I bet that 90% of tapestry apps have exactly the same authentication requirement: on a page that requires authentication, check if user is authenticated, if not redirect to a login page and after login go back to the original page with the same context. I believe that this could be all wired in the tapestry framework to make people's life easier. Thanks, Henri.
