Hi, after upgrading from 5.0.5 to 5.0.6 (which was not too difficult thanks to some messages on this list), my application somehow seems to not work with the @ApplicationState as before.
I have three components on my page: - LanguageSwitch - MenuBar - Login Depending on who is logged in and the selected language, a different menu is displayed. All three components have a property @ApplicationState private Menu menu; MenuBar has an additional property private boolean menuExists; to query if a menu has yet been set. When the language is switched, the component calls "menu=null;" to force the MenuBar component to create a new menu. When someone logs in or out, the Login component calls "menu=null;" for the same reason. The MenuBar component calculates a new menu (based on selected language and logged in user) if it finds that there is no existing menu (menuExists==false). This setup worked as expected in 5.0.5, but after I switched to 5.0.6, the menu=null in the Login component seems to get ignored (from LanguageSwitch it works as before). I think it depends on the order of components: LanguageSwitch is before MenuBar, so MenuBar sees the changes done in LanguageSwitch, but not the changes done in Login. The Login component calls menu=null in two places: in onSuccessFromFormLogin(), after the "Login" submit button was clicked, and onActionFromLogout(), after the ActionLink titled "logout" is clicked. I get the same behaviour for both calls. What is strange here: adding some logging, I see that the click on the "Switch Language" ActionLink, as well as the "logout" ActionLink and the click on the "Login" button create two requests (this is as expected). In the first request, menu=null is called. In the second request, the MenuBar component checks for the existence of the menu property. Why does the MenuBar in the second request not see the changes done in the first request? I hope the description provided is clear, the actual code involved is a bit more complicate than mentioned here, and would take a long time to read. On the other hand, creating a small example demonstrating the problem would also take some time, maybe someone knows where the problem lies with this description already. If not, I will sit down and create a small example.
