Hello,

I'm having a problem with onActivate().  Here are my questions:
1) Why is onActivate() called when a context variable is included in the
URL?
2) Is there a way to prevent onActivate() from being called until AFTER
onActivate(Integer prmPrimaryKey) is called?

Here's my dilemma: I want to use one detail page to handle inserts and
updates.  So I have written an onActivate(Integer prmPrimaryKey) handler
to initialize the page for an update; and another onActivate() handler
to initialize the page for an insert.

Each onActivate() handler checks to see if the user is allowed to access
this page.  If the user is not allowed to access, the onActivate()
handler generates a Link with the current page's context, uses that Link
to set a Session state variable, and then returns a Login page.  Once
the user logs in, the Session state variable is checked to see if it has
been set; if so, the user is taken back to that page.

My problem is that when the page is accessed with a context variable
(thus, to handle an UPDATE), onActivate() is being called before
onActivate(Integer prmPrimaryKey).  Thus, the entity ID of the page
isn't being set before the Link is generated and added to the session
state.

The Link that is being generated, then, doesn't have any context
included, so when the user finishes logging in, the user is taken back
to the page, with no context.

Is this a Tapestry bug, or is there a better way of handling this?

Thanks,
Andy
