Re: Ask for user input during doExecute or doValidate

No, no way to do that. Commands should be atomic and are execute within a critical section. If you would have user interaction in there you would run into two problems: 1. The separation of the model (Command-Pattern) and the GUI (Seaside) would be broken. 2. When using Seaside as GUI the user could use the back- and forward-buttons and therefor destroy the atomic execution of the command. Again two possible solutions for this: 1. You raise an exception/notification in #doValidate to check for notify the GUI about the fact that there is a password required and then resume the validation. 2. You put a password field right into your command that can be left empty. #doValidate raises an exception if the password is missing or wrong.
